How many relationships have you been in?

Do you know off of the top of your head?
 
Four, only one of which I'd consider to be serious.

How about you?

Well. Lets see. 11 women. Not counting the ones I had one night stands with or dated under 2 weeks. These are all the girls I had relationships with.

  • Ashley - I was with her in high school for 5 months. (2003 - 2004)
  • Kylie - I was only with her for a month. My friends warned me about her. I thought she was sweet at first. But we fought a lot and it was mainly because I couldn't trust her. She cheated on me with my best friend and then after that, they both told everyone that I beat her and abused her to ruin my reputation with my other friends. After several months people realized that it was all bullshit and that I didn't do that. What they did realize is that she took part in ruining a 12 year long friendship. So it eventually backfired on both of them. My ex best friend got shit for having an affair with her when she was with me which he came to me and apologized for 5 years later after it was all said and done. (2006)
  • Kacey - I met her at a church that my parents attended. I was only with her for close to 2 months before she broke up with me. We didn't quite get along as I'd hoped. I felt she had difficult personality while she was very carefree and happy. She wasn't good at handling our personal problems or addressing them. Presently, I see her in town sometimes. She's been married for several years now and I think she's very happy. (2007)
  • Barbara - I met her on Myspace. She messaged me first as I wasn't aware of her existence. She lived an hour away from me. The relationship lasted a month before she lost interest. She was a very unhappy person and she was open about that. I think she suffered from anger and depression. She was very intolerant of a lot of things. She ended our relationship because she wanted to see other people. (2007)
  • Amanda - I went to high school with this girl, she was older than me by a few years and had moved back in with her parents and was going through a divorce. The relationship didn't really last 2 month because of her drug abuse, mental, and emotional problems. Sometimes I wouldn't see her for several days at a time. It wasn't the kind of relationship I wanted. She did end up getting her divorce and I had been skeptical whether she was really going to go back to her husband or not. Everyone had told me that the fact she wasn't divorced was bad. (2007)
  • Alexis - This is the woman I married and had 2 kids with. I was with her for 11 years. I met her through an old friend. She was engaged to get married at the time. But we connected so well. She ended up leaving him for me. At the time though we were just friends. The first 2 years of the marriage was great. However the remaining years were rocky. We had our issues and divorced. I still care about her but not like I did when we were married and together. She made a huge impact in my life and forever changed me. Sadly she's not the woman that I married anymore. Today she has mental and emotional problems mixed with meth addiction. She has mental and emotional problems that I never knew were that bad. One day she was a loving and caring mother and wife who became a cheating and miserable drug addict who begged her husband for a divorce. I had no idea someone could change that much. Her family even has little to do with her. What started out as a happy beginning ended with a very sad and depressing end. I still think about her and what we had. Sometimes I cry about it. It's not what I wanted for myself or my kids. I really think she's thrown her life away. (2008 - 2019)
  • Samantha - Someone I saw for a month during my separation. I hadn't filed for divorce yet. She was moving too fast for me. Wanted me to move in with her where she lived which was an hour out of town. She had a son who was severely autistic. I wasn't sure if I could make that kind of commitment. I'm glad it didn't work out because I felt she was somewhat manipulative. (2019)
  • Allison - This girl was friends with my brother from high school. We dated only for a few weeks. I didn't like her attitude. I ended up not talking to her anymore and it's not like I ghosted. She just didn't call me and I felt there was very little care present. I hadn't yet filed for divorce. (2019)
  • Rosalina - A Hispanic woman who was 38 years old. We saw each other for almost 2 months. I met her on Tinder. I had already filed for divorce at that time and I though things were going well. She left me to go back to her ex boyfriend whom she'd been with for about 3 years. (2019 - 2020)
  • Elizabeth - I got with her a month before my divorce was finalized. I spent 3 months with her. It was the WORST relationship I ever had. I have never been pissed on so bad by anyone as badly as she pissed on me. And I have never hated someone so much other than my ex sister in law. This girl almost makes my ex sister in law look innocent. This is the girl that I described in several threads on here that screwed me over in every way she could. From calling DFS and accusing me of being a child beater to doing a fake pregnancy test. She's an absolute psychotic sociopath. I met this girl on Plenty of Fish. She was worse than my ex wife and every girl I've ever been with. 100 times worse in every way imaginable. She was toxic both mentally and emotionally. She was very open about how she couldn't stand my kids. She was with me for what I could buy and do for her mainly. Bitch is the best word that describes her. She definitely left an impression and it wasn't a good one. I was so relieved when I was finally rid of her. I feel sorry for the next man's life that she ruins. (2020)
I stayed on Tinder for a little while and met a few more women. But they were mostly one night stands. Then I took a 7 month hiatus from dating and the whole thing altogether because of the COVID pandemic. I was mainly depressed that my ex wife had left me and felt like no one cared. I was seeing all of this girls that didn't give a second thought about me.

Then after I moved in October. In November, I wanted to start dating again and find someone. I don't want to be alone for the rest of my life. I don't think anyone should if they don't want to. So I went back on Tinder. In December, I struck gold.

  • Madi - I met her on Tinder. We're still together. All is good. It's been 4 months going now. I don't feel compelled to leave. Minimal fights and problems. She gets along really well with the kids. She's succeeded where most women have failed.
 
3 relationships that I would consider to be serious..

My first was long distance for over 2 years after meeting online, and afterwards I swore that I would never do it again. I tried to visit every 3-4 months since I didn't drive and was quite young at the time.

My second was for just shy of 12 years, and we were married for 6 of those years. I truly loved her, and we had a daughter together who's recently turned 3. As much as I wouldn't change having her, it definitely changed the relationship and we'd been struggling for a while before she decided to call time on things last year. I was devastated, and lost my way for a couple of months..

My third and most recent is now 7 months strong. I'd like to think that we're pretty well suited, despite me not being her normal type - but she openly admits that perhaps it's a good thing as she's never felt the same with anyone previously. We're currently planning a holiday abroad next year ?️
 
The serious ones that I have are five. I did love them, but they need to go out of my life for certain reasons.
