See it won't devastate me because I already know the truth.
It's what the live in GF will do when the truth is finally exposed.

Thanks for your feedback - good or bad, always nice to see the advice has been read. I would however, like to point out, that YOUR suggestion: " BUT as much as I am wrong how can anyone say that this man or any man/woman that sleeps with another man/woman whether they are living together or not honestly gives a hoot about the one that they live with?"
No one was saying ' that he gives a hoot for his gf, or is not in the wrong' It's irrelevant what he does, YOU have control over what you do, and where married men or men with live-in-gf are concerned, the right thing to do, is to WALK as two wrongs don't make a right.

IMO this man has really NO regard to either mine or his live in GF feelings and is nothing but a very selfish person.
This a man that just doesn't CARE.

He keeps coming back to you- but you keep opening him your door or picking up his calls or answering his e-mails.
If in your opinion what he does is dead wrong- then stop letting him do it !

reader, anonymous, writes (6 December 2010): You know he has a girlfriend, and a live-in girlfriend at that, and for five years you've been the 'booty call' as that is all it is, and you say in your opinion what he's doing is dead wrong, he's cheating on her with you.
It takes two, you cannot pass the ALL the blame on the guy, you are both people who lack the ability to say NO, and what he's doing does not matter, you should have your own basic standards, you don't sleep with other women's boyfriends or husbands, you don't accept being a booty call. Stick to those rules, and it's easy! It shows self-worth and integrity!
As for him using you, it think it has worked both ways, as you've gone along with it - most women wouldn't who wanted a proper relationship. As you say, it's an arrangement, but unfortunately not on an equal playing field, as he has a partner, do the right thing and say NO to him, don't take his calls, answer emails or the phone, and walk away and have some self-respect.
Sorry..but I can't feel sorry for you, as there is a third party here, however, I hope get your life together and find someone decent to have a proper relationship with.

What you are doing is wrong. It doesnt really matter what its called. He doesnt have enough feeling toward you to leave his LIVE IN gf. He is using you. You may not see that. But you are there for sex when ever he wants. He has somebody else. He will not commit to you. Or stop seeing her. Did you expect him to say ok I'll leave her? Or ok goodbye have a nice life? You can tadmit what he is doing is wrong if you are the cause. You are in your 40s. Dont let ANY man use you. He only wants you for sex. He may tell you something otherwise, but im pretty sure we can all agree he has no problem with lying. I hope you figure out everything, and end up happy :) Good luck!
