Why....why toy with a women's heart and lie about your marital status..tell her you love her, take her around your friends..and then reveal that you are married...and crush her soul

Simple explanation some men have no conscience and simply view this behavior as a means to an end!!!

An end to what??? How can guys tell a woman he loves her over and over...and then go back to his wife, without considering how she is going to feel?

I'm very sorry this happened to you. Some people have no soul or could careless about others. I hope the next person you meet is a real man. Best wishes.

Aw, sorry this happened to you

:( Some guys have no heart.

I have no understanding of why they do this.
I do however understand how hurt and angry you must feel as the same thing happened to me once. It sucks!!
I hope he gets what he deserves and you get the good man you deserve.

He was probably getting bored with married life and wanted a bit of excitement. But it soon wears off and then it's back to reality. He then realizes what he already has and is no longer willing to risk losing it all. Ever see that film Fatal Attraction?

Think it happens a lot, indeed boredom or something. But I do find it odd he introduced you to his friends? Don't hear that very often.
Sorry for you, awful to go through.


@Mist, Fatal Attraction? Do you watch any new stuff? Try Dangerous Liaisons. Also ancient, but bluddy good!

Crystal, no I do not. I don't watch any of the new stuff that's coming out now. Political Correctness is destroying everything.

Because most men are a**holes.

He also introduced me to his boss, siblings and an Aunt and Uncle. We socialized with everyone. The wife lives in another state and have lived apart for 4 yrs. yep..it sucks

That poor bunny. Curse you Glenn Close!

Ah, that changes the whole story. Sounds like there's a bit more going on than a guy simply being an @sshole. Maybe he didn't lie to you at all, but found out along the way he wasn't free from his ex.
Many ppl (esp men) can't be alone, dive into a new relationship as soon as possible, then find out they never went through the breaking up process and/or still have feelings for the ex.
Doesn't make it any easier for you though. Take your time to get through this. Then do some 'analyzing': were there really no signs at all that something was amiss? We often tend to overlook these as we don't want to see them.

Anyway, best wishes!

I think when push came to shove, he wants his family, as dysfunctional as it is, it works for them. Sucks for me....
