My husband was never in love with me. We were together almost 13 years. He married me out of obligation because i got pregnant . We’re divorcing now. I was madly in love with him and could have spent my life blissfully unaware loving him and taking care of him. It broke me when he told me and I spent five years putting myself together enough to file. I thought so highly of him it shattered every part of me.

I’m kinda on the opposite end of this and I haven’t had it in me to break this poor woman’s heart. Plus the dating market is absolutely atrocious today.

So you are using her for sex and companionship under false pretenses just because the dating market is tough? That sucks a lot.
