It means hes having his cake and eating it. Hes getting all his needs met. Sometimes the wife is unaware of all the goings on. You were his 1A and are now his 1B

Honeypie agony auntI think if there is no romance going on and the "NEW" GF is OK with it - it's friendship. Exes CAN become friends, it is possible.

However, OP, is HE the only one who moved onto a new relationship? If so, maybe being friends with him is an "excuse" to not move on yourself. Unless you are quite content to be on your own.

As I see it, if ALL involved parties are OK with this arrangement, then enjoy the friendship.

janniepeg agony auntIt means he loves you emotionally but loves the other woman physically. Taking you out and helping at your house is to hang on to that connection. If I were the other girlfriend I would not be okay with this. If I were you I would be looking for the whole package, yes even at your age.
