They met and went public on FB 6 weeks after he moved out of my house. He's the picture perfect definition of codependent. Once I understood that, all of his actions hurt me so much less.
I am just waiting for my ex to get remarried too. Wanna talk about codependent - we were together for 17 years and the very next day after I moved out, his whore moved in.

I just don't get it at all. I don't get how my exH has NEVER ever lived on his own as an adult and how he is ok with that. It's all just so weird to me.
Of course he is an abuse victim, so I guess I should just be thankful he's as functioning as he is given his abuse background. Sigh. It's just WEIRD.
Yes I think it's the abuse background. My ex was very similar, he has always been in relationships since the abuse he suffered had ended. I think mostly that he's used relationships as a distraction from getting help/feeling or seeing how the past affects who he is now.
I remember being very hurt with how fast he moved on after we were over. Even now - he is married with two (TWO!! omg) kids and this is a guy who can't even take care of himself. It amazes me.
I'm sorry you're sad. I'm glad you didn't dive right back into a relationship because you are putting in the work to learn, grown and make healthier decisions. He will continue to do what he's doing and never really deal with his crap.

Poor girl also is obviously codependent-willing to jump in a relationship with a guy JUST separated. I know it can be rough doing the healthy thing, but you are going to be so much happier in the long run. *hugs*

And, you are super hot.
AND you have super duper awesome and mighty good looking friends who love you like crazy
Yay for Facebook, so we can relive the past! I Facebook creeped after reading this post, too:(. "Slow and steady wins the race", right? He may have moved on quick, but his flaws will surface soon enough, whereas you have given yourself time to really heal. Sorry about your dog though.
The other woman moved in the same day I moved out (classy), and since my ex was keeping the house, I let him keep the dog, so she could have her same surroundings. I tried to take the high road (I think) at every step until I saw the other woman walking my dog one day, then I let her have it (a few f bombs and the word "whore" came out more than once- not one of my finer moments).
