Was what she did psycho? Am I wrong to be weirded out?

1

I’m 31, my 38 year old boyfriend of a year and a half moved back home to California in January. We still chat from time to time. He kept asking me to move there with him. I love my job and my daughter’s support system is here (school, therapies, grandparents, friends) – so I keep telling him no.

Well night before last I got text – thinking it was him – and started chatting like normal. It wasn’t him. The next morning he called to say that someone else had been using his phone to text me.

I had no idea he was with someone (which is something he should have told me). I wouldn’t even have considered texting him. Anyway this person (I’m assuming is his new girlfriend) said he was having an emotional affair with me.

I had no intentions of getting mixed into any craziness – but it seems I walked straight into it. Am I wrong to be weirded out by this interaction? I had pretty much gotten over him until she texted as if she was him, and said things that made me remember why I missed him. Ughhhh.

I wish she never would have text my number from his phone. I wish he would have told me he was seeing someone. I feel like an idiot.

I blocked the phone number, after his crazy phone messages that were clearly a fight between the two of them. I am feeling like a jumbled ball of emotions. I’m too old to be mixed up in something so ridiculous.

I totally agree with you that his new girl friend is a little crazy. It's hard to continue to forget someone, if you think they still may have feelings for you because of some texts. His girlfriend must not trust him if she has to pretend to be him and text his exes. You did the right thing by blocking the number.

You are by no means out of your rights feeling put off by such behavior. Cloak-and-dagger romance is for Harlequin romance novels, not real life. Your priorities are in good order, so pat yourself on the back and keep taking care of what's most important.

Good thing you stayed behind where your life is comfortable. Imagine if you gave up everything to follow him???I also agree with the rest in this forum. ^5In a few days you'll be laughing about what happened recently. You won't feel like this for long.
