I was married 4 days shy of 25 years… we’d been together for 27. She’d been having an affair with a coworker (she confessed to the adultery, and when I responded “I love you. I forgive you. Lets work this out.” she said “I’ve done nothing to be forgiven for.”)… We’ve now been divorced for nearly 2 and a half years… my ex wife (remarried to her “coworker” over 2 years ago) sent me a text 2 weeks before I remarried in October… it said “I love you.”… I didn’t respond… just has I didn’t respond to the 15 texts before over the previous summer.
My birthday was 3 weeks ago, and while I was out having lunch with me wife, I get a text… from the ex… I don’t know how to make it more clear to her that I don’t want to be “friends”… after all, what good is a “friend” who will lie to you, and steal from you, and break your heart?
She should have thought about how much she would miss me before she “acted on impulse”…
Yeah, do yourself a favor… don’t text him. He’s part of the past… and he’s there in your past for a reason.
Good luck!
