Another poor sap for you to all mercilessly extract urine from smile

I did write out a long post explaining the detail, history etc, but honestly I'm not sure it's relevant so I'll keep it short.

Our relationship has been to hell and back - death of a child, another one heavily disabled, a previous affair on her part and she finally called time on it earlier this year.

Fairly quickly (no overlap I'm told...) she started seeing someone who was a recent addition to her circle of friends, was with him for a few months then broke up with him.

She now says she wants to work things out with me and maybe pick things back up - but wishes to remain good friends with the intermediate boyfriend. She still goes out with him during the day, he's with her on nights out, he messages her daily still. If we are to even think about working things out, I have an issue with this being an ongoing thing.

So here's the question: Am I being unreasonable?

No. Absolutely not. Sounds like she thought she could replace you with him and tried. It didn't work out with him so she's back to you... and wants to keep 'friend' in the picture as she probably has a thought that he'll come round, then it'll be you getting dumped again.

Absolutely not. However she 100% is!

Otherwise it will never work.

Move on, permanently. Keep it friendly for the sake of the kids but that's it.

I won't take the piss out of you poor bd.

But I will say this: steer clear. I appreciate you have a lot of history, and share a child, but it's absolutely not worth it. Nothing good will come out of it - for anyone involved.

If you don't tell her to jog on, the urine extraction will be well deserved!

The break up wasn't actually down to our relationship directly but rather a big personal issue on her end and I know she's finally getting some help with it, which no matter what happens is great news.

Apparently I would have nothing to worry about, I shouldn't feel threatened etc. I tried to give her my perspective on things, but she just feels it's an unreasonable request on my part.

Guess I'm staying single for now, thanks for the reassurance that I'm not being obstinate biggrin

Ermmm let me think about this for a minute.......
































Nope, not being unreasonable, but being stupid to think that that is a basis for a relationship going forward. She chose him over you, now wants both of you? You know where that's heading, don't you, really?
Get a grip, get your head on straight and get the hell out of Dodge.
Do. Not. Go. Back.

She's asking for both, to free her from any guilt.

No you're not. She is being quite unbelievably selfish and self centered. If she can't see what she is asking of you, well, you'd better not even dare ever come back here and tell us you're giving it a go! laugh

Seriously, just don't go there again. She's done the dirty on you once and is refusing to admit it's a 'bad thing' by her behaviour... I would say the chances of her sticking it out with you again are about zero.

I suggest that you secure your immediate position, pass the message on to the other guy for his awareness and tell her to f right off. She is playing both of you.

What he said.

I know it's easy to say as we are not in your boat. But it's daft.

It's one thing for a partner to cheat hell it happens and people get over it but to still have him around. What the fk !
