My Heart Fell For A Guy Who Never Left His Girlfriend

Back at school, a guy told me that he liked me and wanted to have a relationship. I said no. Just for fun, I asked him to put me in touch with his friend who was the one I liked. He really surprised me because he did that and even gave me his friend's number. I took my chance, so I called him. We talked and before long we were a couple.

What is funny is that the first boy didn’t even seem to be upset at all. We kept our friendship and he even introduced me to his new girlfriend later on which really made me happy for him. He had moved on while I was dating his friend for about two years. When that ended, it was friendly no conflict, no bad feelings. I thought that the story was over.

The post-school life was quite surprising. I met that first boy again the one who had poured out his heart to me years ago. We started a conversation and he told me that he still wanted me. He asked me again and I said yes this time.

I asked him about his girlfriend and he said they were still a couple but that it wasn't working because of the distance. I took his word for it since at times love does not grow stronger with distance.

Then, I got the news that I was pregnant.

The moment I made the announcement, he told me that he was not prepared and requested me to abort the baby, but I did not concede. I told him he was welcome to go if that was what he wanted. When he saw that I was not going to change my mind, he said he would remain but candidly informed me, “The love I feel for you is over.”

He was serious.

These nine months were a rollercoaster of emotions. There were a lot of insults, he was neglectful, and he made his indifference to me perfectly clear.

And then I found the texts. There were his chats with the “ex” who was inquiring about the ring. They were clearly still pretty much involved. When I confronted him, he said that there was nothing serious between them. I was weary but decided to keep my composure and concentrate on my baby. By the grace of God, I had a safe delivery.

Two years later, I could not help it and I contacted the other woman to get the real story.

She spilled it all. They had never broken up not even for a moment. He would go to see her, and she would come to see him. After that, she started to reveal personal things about me that he had been telling her. I was shattered. I couldn’t eat or sleep for two days. I began the long, agonizing journey of trying to get over it.

But this is my truth, one I am nearly embarrassed to say: I still love him.

He is back now and says he wants to reconcile. I also heard from one of his friends he would never get married to me but later he claimed that it was just anger talking. A considerable part of me is inclined to forgive him once more.

Nevertheless, a different part of me is scared. Will I have to suffer again? Are the abuse and isolation going to come back?

My feelings are directing me one way, but my past is preventing me from moving forward. I am stuck in the middle, not knowing which way to go.
