They say breaking up is hard to do, but you know whats harder?
Living with your ex while pretending everythings just peachy.
Okay, now thats just weird.
But out of nowhere, her husband decided he wanted out.
Well, kind of.
He wanted a divorce while still living together, sharingfinances, and co-parenting like nothing had changed.
To say our OP was confused would be the understatement of the century.
On a recenttripwith his friends from university, no less.
And what did he do when confronted?
Oh, just the usual lie, gaslight, and deny.
But the OP had receipts in his not-so-deleted messages.
But can you really live with an ex?
Short answer: maybe, but at what cost?
Some exes manage to keep it civil, treating each other like distant coworkers who split the rent.
The emotional baggage alone could fill a moving truck.
It all sounds good, in theory.
But when one of the partners has cheated, thats a whole new story.
Because cheating doesnt just break hearts; it rewrites the entire relationship in real time.
The betrayed partner is left questioning everything was it ever real?
Were they ever enough?
Its like a bad hangover that wont go away.
The best way to heal?
Therapy, self-care, and surrounding yourself with people who actually respect you.
And, it would probably be a good idea to call it quits.
Signsthe marriage is over?
Lifes too short to live in relationship limbo sometimes, the healthiest choice is the hardest one.
Thankfully, OP isnt sticking around for more emotional torture.
What do you think?
Could you ever live with an ex, or is that just a recipe for disaster?
