writes: My ex boyfriend was a cheater. He slept with other women atleast three times in our 2 year long relationship, and was constantly looking for "better" (going out to meet girls, online accounts, etc.) He was not good to me a lot of the time, but whenever we got together, we were very happy with each other. He was my first real boyfriend, and I truly thought that he was the man I would marry and raise a family with (until I found out about the cheating.) We have been apart for over a year, and I have dated serveral other men, who weren't quite right for me (although they treated me like gold.) Finally, I met someone who is honest, genuine, and who I can honestly see my future with. We have been together 3 months, and yet now I am having a harder time than ever dealing with the fact that I still love and miss my ex. Everything reminds me of him, even though I am constantly reminding myself about the awful things he did to me (cheating.)Why am I having such a hard time now that I am in a relationship again, and is there anything I can do to stop the hurt?

Moved in with his mistress and now has a baby with her. Its the baby thing that bugs me. Can't seem to get over it! I am just distracting myself and trying to focus on the new. Just wanted to let you know someone was feeling your pain. Good Luck.
