His Secret Motive

by Single Mom Dating on September 8, 2007

Four weeks after the fact, my ex actually tells me tonight that him and the whore broke up. (Yes, I call his gf a whore.) Let me give you a little background on this.

My ex and I were high school sweethearts. We were each other’s “first love” and first sexual encounter. We married young. I was 20 and he was 21. 5 years into our marriage I gave birth to our son. Two years after my son was born, my ex decided to leave our 8 year marriage for a woman he played an online video game with, whom was also married and lived in Texas. They have been together for the past 2 1/2 years.

Anyhow, back to tonight. He arrives to pick up our son for the weekend and decides to start up an interesting conversation.

Him: So I have something of interest for you
Me: Hmm?
Him: Well, Karen and I broke up
Me: And why would this interest me?
Him: shrugs Well I dunno
Me: Oh because I hate her?
He laughs.
Me: Lance, I never hated you.
Him: I know
Me: I just hated her and was hurt by the way things went down. Had it been anyone else after the fact, I would have been happy for you.
Him: Yea
Me: sarcasticaly Well for what it’s worth, I’m sorry to hear that.
Him: I know. Well anyhow, I couldn’t leave him motioning to our son and she didn’t want to move here.

After he left and I closed the door behind him, I stood there frozen in my tracks. Questioning as to why would he tell me this. Did he have some secret motive? Perhaps trying to see a reaction of jealous rage or to see if I would be so cold to him indicating I could never forgive him?

His mother still has high hope that we will get back together. I could never be second choice though. He chose her over me. He chose her over our family. On several holidays including father’s day 2 years in a row, he chose her over our son. I dunno what to think of all this. Deep down I know I have enough capacity to fall in love with him all over again but in the 2 1/2 years we have been apart, I have come to realize he never was the man I hoped he would be.
