I had a horrifyingly awful breakup with my fiance in August last year. By September I had moved cities, got a new job, got my child into a new school and settled back into my life. I also went out with my girlfriends one night (to drown my sorrows) and met an extremely good looking Kiwi who I ended up having a passionate night with (which was good for my self esteem).
I never intended to see him again but we spent the next 2 months sending text messages which consisted of little more than "Bootie call?" and "when / where?". I was not looking for a boyfriend (in fact made it very clear I wasn't!) and this worked extremely well.
HOWEVER, by November we'd gone to the movies together a few times. Gone to the beach a couple of times. By December he'd met some of my friends and I'd met his. By January we went on a holiday together for 4 days (I should have listened to my wise girlfriend who stated "bootie calls don't go on holidays together" and (horror OH horror) he's started introducing me as his girlfriend.
So, I have accidentally gotten myself a boyfriend. And the timing is so bad. I've basically ended up jumping from one relationship to another without having any "me" time in between!
A lovely boyfriend. A great looking boyfriend. But a thoroughly unsuitable flirty tarty boyfriend.
And I didn't want a boyfriend.
But, I have one and he's so lovely to me that I don't really want to get rid of him.

I had a 1 night stand about 18 months after my husband died, spent the last 7 years in an on again off again relationship where I was manipulated regularly by a jealous guy who I kept hoping would eventually come good!?
I put up with this behaviour, I know it was wrong, I should've cut ties years ago, once he started mistreating my 2 kids..... That was the line in the sand..... Unfortunately I was pregnant during this realisation, and when his child was born and he started treating me worse than ever, I knew this time was IT,
something happened when I turned 40, (besides him showing little interest in my milestone bday)...... Light switch turned on and I finally got a backbone and kicked him out!
it took 3months of him on the lounge before he would leave my house, and because of our child (my precious angel) I have to deal with him. He is worse than ever, using the baby to get his way, accuses me of all sorts of things, gets angry if I go to the gym or to the shops or for coffee while he is at my house visiting his daughter.
i wish he'd meet someone else to latch onto so he can have another focus.
it is very heart wrenching to regret a relationship that gave you such a wonderful gift! 😕
