Is he worth it?
| Fri, 11-19-2004 - 10:24pm |
My boyfriend and I have been seeing each other for two years now. He's my best friend. I knew from the begining that he was married, I even went over to his house and talked with his wife and her family, I even saved his youngest son from drowning during a party. At first he told me that he would drop everything and leave, but now money is an issue. He wants the entire house and doesn't want to pay her any allimony and will do anything to make sure he gets what he wants. He says that he just wants to make me happy, but I would live in a box with him if I had to. I don't know what to do. It hurts so much knowing that he goes home and sleeps with someone else every night. I'm afraid of falling deeper in love with him because I am terrified of getting hurt, but at the same time he is my everything and I don't think I could ever get over him. I know I can wait, but is he worth it?

Is he worth it? Surely you know that he's not. First he's cheated on his wife. This clearly shows you that he has no sense of ethics. If he's done it to her, he'll do it to you too when he gets a little bored with you.
If he really wanted to leave, he would. If the relationship between them is so terrible, then why exactly does he still go home to sleep with her at night?
If nothing else bothers you, then what about the fact that he wants to keep the house for himself and leave his wife and son with nothing? He'll do anything to get what he wants. That idea wouldn't bother you if he ever left his wife, married you, and then was in the process of divorcing you for his next mistress, and wanted to go to any lengths to leave you and possible children the two of you might have with nothing?
