UGH...this is confusing

Okay, long story short...A few years back a had what I thought would be a one night stand with a business partner that I had a friendship started with already.

Just looks like a pattern developing here with you being a side dish
Galthinker,
Is your name derived from thinking too much? :smileywink:

Forget about his intentions. What's more important is what are your intentions? Hopefully you have none other than discussing business, and as the previous poster said, SET BOUNDARIES. You don't have to verbalize them to him, just know what they are. i,e, conversations that are strictly professional. If they start going off track, rope them back into business only. Our tone, our attitude, and our "lack of emotion" can make it perfectly clear that we are not interested in them on a personal level.
If you do not have to talk to him, then don't. Make sure this is for the benefit of your profession and read nothing else into it. You are in control of who is and who is not allowed into your head.
((Hugs))
Well, that new information changes things.
why would he risk everything with his wife even talking to me
Because he is a master manipulator and he knows that you will drop your morals and hide out and be his dirty little secret whenever he feels he needs a side dish. You won't tell her, so in his mind he can continue to play the both of you like a fiddle. He knows that you are willing to shred your dignity (as we all did) and stroke his fragile ego. Please? You had s*x with him in his backyard with his W at home. Wasn't that enough to make you stop yourself from sinking into his awful little nasty game? He has no respect for you, himself, his W or anyone at this point, and he obviously doesn't think that you have any respect for yourself either.
It's time to stop worrying about why he is acting so low down and dig yourself out of the abyss and show him that you love yourself a little more than just being someone's "you know what".
