A Dose of Reality

So, it's been a while since I wrote anything here. I've been seeing a Canadian guy for over a month now. He devastated me yesterday when I simply asked if he'd been with anyone else since we started dating.

He replied, "I don't want to hurt you, but yes, I have."

He said it just happened, almost like someone just wakes up hits the snooze bar or something. And it happened two wweeks ago with his ex-girlfriend. I'm so completely hurt.

I truly care for the guy, and I am trying to be mature about this. We aren't in an exclusive relationship. How do I just let something like that go and move on from it? I've been going on dates and I've kissed a few people, but that is definitely not the same thing as having sex with someone.

As revenge, I went back on plentyoffish and started talking to someone. I'm really glad I did. I ended up going to meet this really nice guy from Waterford. He's yet another father for the collection of fathers I have been seeing, but he's really down-to-earth and normal. He even understands that whole aneurysm thing. Part of it is his background in the medical field. The other is that his family is riddled with them. I could totally see going out with him again.
