Shelve your plans

By anon17 - 18/03/2010 13:49 - United States

Today, I discovered that my fiancé had responded to an online missed connection posting. He has been emailing, exchanging pictures and making plans to go out with this girl. We are supposed to be married in the fall and just put down the non-refundable deposit on our reception site. FML

You have to talk to the bf to see if it is really over. Could be just that old habits die hard, and shooting off an email is not really that big a deal. Engagement is not the same as marriage, and they haven't even seen each other yet apart from some earlier encounter. The pictures could just be to confirm the other person is who they saw. This definitely doesn't rise to a full on revenge scenario.

What about the plans to go out with her? Engagement may not be the same as marriage, but a commitment is still made to be with one person.

I always take these FMLs as just one side of a story. What she calls planning to go out with may in fact be flirting about some supposed get together that may or may not ever happen. I'm guessing the guy is probably just exploring this to decide if he is ready to commit or not.

It could be. To me, though, that's too far.

lol and you had to mention the non-refundable deposit, because it matters, right? No matter you don't interest him anymore, bitch. YDI

Even if he wasn't, I don't see many people watching that show.

you shouldn't of been snooping around. there's such a thing as caring too much

this is the EXACT same thing that happened to me, except we just got engaged so we didn't put money down other than the ring and it was several postings.....that was more of "casual NSA encounter type of deals" I live with him and we are TRYING to work it out. You have my sympathies...sincerely. (kinda blows though, today was the first day I didn't think about it...until now. blah)

:/ I don't know that I'd be as forgiving as you. I just know that after something like that, you always wonder. It's always kind of there on your mind. Hopefully it works out, though.

Nope, not sarcastic. I truly meant the compliment about cogent advice. A TV show is obviously a little "out there," so that wasn't really serious.

maybe it's an old friend?? ya ever think of that??

Yeah I thought of that and posted it an hour ago. Go up and read the previous comments and you'll get the answer to your question!!

It's a sad situation, but at least you found out BEFORE you married him.
