Ex has moved on :(

Ex has moved on :(

Hi!
I’ve never reached out to anyone on anything like this before but I am feeling completely broken. Four weeks ago I asked my ex, the father of my kids (who I’m still in love with) if he had moved on. He replied “I’m not gonna lie I am seeing someone” .. since this day I have been completely heart broken I can’t even explain how I am feeling. He works away in Mt Isa for months & is coming back to see our daughters less & less but video calls them most nights.

All I can think about is him with someone else 24/7 feel like I’m in a deep dark hole I can’t get out of. I just can’t snap out of it. He knows I still love him but he doesn’t care. He knows I’ve been in hospital last week but did not text once to ask if I was ok or our daughters were ok. He knows Im not ok & upset but says nothing. He has never been able to communicate with me & is terrible at communicating wit most people.

I feel so worthless & sad. I don’t know how to act towards him & just wish I could win him back 😞 or get him to realise he wants to come home to me & my daughters. I gave everything to him but feel he never made any effort in return just continued to work away.

just don’t know what to do anymore 😞 😞 😞

@Bee82 ffs i post a lizzo song which tells you girl what to do and the powers that be take it off ...... give him the flick you are only courting misery if you fall for this.

Oh @Bee82 - I'm so sorry to hear how confusing this must all be for you.

For someone to walk out on you, then come back with all the additions? That doesn't make sense to me either.

However, I am reading through the posts here and do you think it is because you gave him space, he now realises things are not working out for him, so he wants to return because you have it better?

Maybe ignoring him a bit made him realise?

As much as I'm happy for you, I'm also very confused...

Are the girls returning to you tomorrow? Or is that what you are 'fearing'?

@tyme he has a gf so I don’t know why he said this …

last week we had a huge argument on the phone & I think sent him a long text telling him how I felt about him then when he picked the girls up he comes into my house (which he never does) and does all that. I’ve also lost ALOT of weight since he last sore me (due to all this)

He never msg this week to ask if I was ok after seeing me in such a mess, he’s probably too busy wit his new gf & my daughters. If I was the gf I wouldn’t be happy with what he said to me.

@Chris1969 What do u mean off? I doubt he would do couples counseling if he has a gf ..

Maybe his new gf is not such a good choice? @Bee82 I really don't know 🙂

Just take it easy. Don't think too much about it - it might stress you out more.

While your girls are away, I hope you can do something nice for yourself. Coffees, nails, hairdressers?

@tyme I’m pretty sure he is seeing his gf while he has my daughters as he will have to share his time in Brisbane between the girls n her as he works in mt isa for a mth sometimes longer at a time 😔

they come home tomorrow & I’m so scared to see him again.

Re: sRe: Ex has moved on :(

OK, so if he has a GF, then he shouldn't be talking to you like that. He's giving you hope and if there is none, that is cruel. I suspect he's largely thinking about himself.

Re: sRe: Ex has moved on :(

My head is spinning @Bee82 - I really don't understand his actions.

Let's just wait and see about tomorrow.

Anyway, maybe you could tell him you don't want to speak to him tomorrow? Text him tonight?

Re: sRe: Ex has moved on :(

@tyme I dunno, my guess is he will text tomorrow when he is going to drop the girls home. Maybe I should just wait & see what he is like & see if my daughters tell me they met the gf 😔

Take a breath @Bee82 - who knows what surprises tomorrow will bring.
