As a man who has been in this situation i strongly sugguest you talkto him before it's to late. My now current ex waited almost 6 minths before saying anything to me and by the point I had already attempted to move on. It just further complicated my own relationships as well as my relationship with her. Overall it ended up not being well for either of our mental health. So please if you really care about this man reach out and speak to him. Communication is key in any sort of relationship whether it be friendship or something more. Explained what happened how you felt and maybe if u can identify early signs of it to help him recognize the situation. I 100% would have never moved on if i would have known then what i know now.

Kept waiting for the psycho and it never came, he was just a jerk and tried to make you jealous while you had a side relationship for a year or so. The fact that it was in your face hurt you but you expected him to not be hurt by a romantic relationship of a year in which you tried to end things and say you were a lesbian? You can’t see any of your mistakes and blame him for everything. You both don’t know how to communicate and you were either cheating romantically or had no right to be mad about him banging anyone. Only you can do stuff cause it’s “hidden” even though he knows? 😂

I remember one time my BFF (blonde girl same age as me) and I were both in ruts after horrible breakups in college. We made it a thing to go to Applebee's and get sloshed on the weekends, where people would make comments like we were such a cute couple. This was a weekly thing to pass the time which was better than moping alone.

One time though she said something along the lines of "you need to get more drunk so I can take you back to my place and take advantage of you." My eyebrows shot up so fast and I was absolutely flabbergasted because despite some intermittent flirting between us over the years there has never been a crossing out of the very deep friend zone both of us had each other in. Nothing happened, I brushed it off, and we moved on. She got married, I got married, and she was my best (Wo)man. Definitely better that the line was never crossed, even if the opportunity was there.

My honest opinion is if it was in gar du nord train station and you didn't see this guy get tested for alcohol I'd say he was a pick pocket... especially with the timing of the other train coming in.... The Paris subway is pretty notorious for them and almost all of them have an act they play such as a drunk or a business man etc

I could see how paying bills would take priority over a field trip when it comes to remembering. I don't think you are a shit parent only based on this one mistake.

I'd rather have food, clothes and shelter instead of a field trip. But I am antisocial.
