Relationships Revised: Is Long-Term Monogamy a Sham? by Equal Footing published on 2022-02-17T21:28:20Z Genre Learning Comment by User 475690257 I think I was married to this guy. In the last year of our relationship, he "came out" as polyamorous, and me, being the cool girl, desperately tried to make it work for me. I felt like I was in a mental fog the whole time. My work and health suffered because I spent all of my energy trying to change my perspective on it. I was so confused by his behavior, because what he did was so hurtful but he was always willing to talk about things and said he valued open communication (even though he lied and evaded the truth on multiple occasions). I remember having this light bulb moment when everything became clear to me. I finally understood why his behavior was so inconsistent and his words didn't match his actions. It was really very simple. He didn't care about me. Everything he did suddenly made sense once I realized the truth of it. I snapped out of it immediately, left him on the spot after almost 15 years together, and never looked back. 2022-02-19T04:05:50Z Comment by User 475690257 I feel sorry for you. 2022-02-18T03:40:36Z
