I typically like to know what he does with his GF or how their relationship is going, but now that they are getting an apartment together and he's talking about how they went shopping for this or looking for that I am finding that maybe I should stop being so curious about their life together. i dont think i can handle it anymore as i get really aggravated when he brings her up. do you like to hear about their life together or do you prefer it is kept a mystery?

I honestly could care less of what he does with his W of 20 years...after so many years, there is just nothing he can possibly do that will make me interested to know:)

Honestly, I enjoy hearing about his time with his family. I know that he loves his wife and that they have fun together. It doesn't bother me in the least. Now about their sex life, I'm not AS comfortable with that but we don't discuss details. Just that it happens.

The thing that REALLY bothers me is his flirtations with other women. We have known each other for half of our lives and I have always known that he is a HUGE flirt. After all this time, it shouldn't bother me but it does. My insecurity is that he will find another woman to be with and be done with me or WORSE, he will be with someone else and not tell me! Silly huh? The wife isn't a threat to me I think because I personally view her as unattractive. She used to be cute but age has not been her friend.

Anyhow. That's my story.

I am interested in him not her so I don't really want to know about her.

We have minimal conversations about our spouses...and it's always very respectful..no bashing. I know that sounds ironic considering we're in an A, but it is what it is..I guess.
