AuntyEm agony auntAny relationship you have with someone who is married to someone else won't ever end happily.

He doesn't love you, he is still having kids and making a family with his wife. He may say he loves you so he can have sex with you, but if he loved you, he would have left his wife by now.

Men arn't emotional unless they are hurting over something that really means a lot to them. If he isn't calling you or is arguing with you it's probably because he wants you to go away for now.

His wife just had a baby, he is playing 'daddy' maybe he is having second thoughts about you and has decided he has no further use for you. There isn't anything you can do.

He may return to you in the future, turning his back on his wife and his new little baby (who is a total innocent)

just so he can have sex with you again, but for now he just doesn't want you.

You my dear seem to be a very selfish woman and it's all about you.

You need to back off and focus on your own marriage and child and forget about your 'boyfriend'.

If you truly want to be free of him, you will cut all contact, leave him alone and never speak to him again and turn your attention to your own family. Hard to do, but it's the only way to get over someone and move on.

chickpea2011 agony auntHi,

When you started this affair, you knew he was married. If after 10 mos, he didn't leave his wife, we both know he won't, specially now that he has a new born, that means he's still very much into the marriage, and still having sex with his wife. I understand that you are emotionally attached to him, but understand that this affair don't have a future. I am not sure what his intensions are, but this won't go any further than just being an affair.

So, it's up to you to continue, knowing and accepting the fact that this will not last nor have a future. Since you knew he was married, you don't have a right to be jealous of his wife, or demand anything from him. You knew the truth from beginning.

Good luck

A female reader, anonymous, writes (12 September 2011):

Just hang in there and continue to resist the urge to call him, and if he calls you need to just ignore him. If you consistently ignore him then at some point he will leave you alone if he finds it's not working to get your attention anymore. But the problem is that you need to stay resolved and not go running back to him the minute he shows attention. Keep your mind focused on your bigger goal, which is to end this affair so your life can be more peaceful and not in turmoil. As long as you're having this affair you'll never have inner peace.

With time you'll feel better eventually as long as you stick with this course of cutting off contact. If you have moments of weaknesses though, then each time you give in and resume contact you're re-setting the clock for getting over this relationship.
