What is this?
Think About It... Whenever we refuse to take responsibility for ourselves, we are unconsciously choosing to react as victim. This inevitably creates feelings of anger, fear, guilt or inadequacy and leaves us feeling betrayed, or taken advantage of by others.~ Lynne Forrest

Something just doesn't add up. She invited me over last night again and I went. I ended up staying the night there as she passed out on me and it was late. Carried her back to bed and went to sleep. Woke up this morning and she asked me to leave so her son didn't see me there and start asking questions. Before I left I asked what was going on between us. She said she wasn't sure and that she can't just get back with me right away. I asked if she was talking to anyone else. She got a bit defensive. I asked if she had slept with anyone else...she got super defensive. And now I have this nagging feeling she and I have an idea of who it might have been. She won't give me a concrete answer though saying I sound like her ex husband now and that it's none of my business...I'm assuming she did...sad

I am so sorry.

How much more of this will you continue to tolerate?  ?

Do you think it will get better?

I'm not sure what to do at this point. Leaning towards just up and vanishing from her life

And would that be good for you, to vanish from her life?

Yes a break up and NC is h-e-double hockey sticks in the beginning but after some time it gets easier so if you disappear from her life and wait out the bad times, you will be free from that r/s.

Remember...you can't change her, you can only change you. If you stay you have more of the same to look forward to from her. Is THAT OK with you?

Only you know.

No it's not, at all. I'm not even as hurt as I thought I would be.

We're broken up right now, which is why she is saying it's none of my business. Which to an extent is true. I could be wrong, I could be right. IF we do end up getting back together. I'll make sure to come back to that and get a real answer. She has always been honest with me about stuff like that surprisingly.

If you are not together then she could be sleeping with someone else...maybe she wants to see if things work out with this other guy first.

One important thing to remember in any relationship, you can not control another person, only yourself.

This might be a bit of a shocked delay in you being able to feel hurt by it.  So of how when you hurt yourself, sometimes the nerves take a while to transmit the pain, your mind can block things form you that you aren't in a place to feel, as a form of protection.  So don't be surprised if in a few days you are doing something mundane and THEN you feel the hurt, anger and betrayal of this.  I've had delayed reactions like this, which seem to kit when I am tired, or about to get sick, and my defenses drop.  OR, after I've been working on dealing with my emotions instead of shutting them away.

This is a sucky place to be, wondering if you are "back-up SO".

I was here for a while when BF was in his emotional affair stage, and when I was doing my best to ignore how much I hated it.  I told him I needed to be not just #1 girlfriend, but the ONLY girlfriend, that I was NOT into being the consolation prize when the new(est) girl dumped him as a 'friend' after seeing his first rage.  We made it through that and it started a lot of work on improving both of u, but we also had 12 years invested into the r/s by then.  I really have to say for people with less time and emotional investment in their r/s, going NC and moving on is not the worst thing you can do, but only you can say if it's the best.

One thing - the minute you pull away for good, she WILL try very hard to 'win' you back.  So if you feel that ending things is best, be prepared before that happens.
