She’s Engaged To A Man 15 Years Older Than Her And Now She’s Thinking Of Ending Things
A 22-year-old college student is currently engaged to a 37-year-old man, whom she initially met in one of her classes.
When she met him, she knew he was older than her, but they struck up a friendship. She also was aware of the fact that he had 3 children since he would frequently speak of them, but she had no idea that he was married.
He kissed her following a day out with some of their friends, and she figured that had to mean that he was not in a relationship at all, but she was wrong.
They began dating, and he revealed to her that he was actually married.
He explained to her that he was sleeping on the couch and only staying married to his wife because of their children and that he felt the marriage was over for years.
“I instantly broke things off and said that I would not participate in any cheating, it didn’t matter if they were not together in that way, because they were still legally together,” she said.
Less than a month after she broke up with him, he asked if they could talk after class one day, and she agreed.
During their chat, he brought up the fact that he was officially divorced and had the paperwork to prove it, so he wanted to re-start their relationship since he was in love with her.
“He reiterated that he did not get divorced because of me, he explained that his wife had been asking for a divorce but he wanted to stay together because of the kids,” she continued.

As soon as his marriage was over, his ex-wife moved home to Japan and their three children went with her.
She ended up moving in with him, got engaged, and their life was pretty flawless for a year.
That was until her fiancé’s children asked to move in with them because they decided they no longer wanted to be in Japan with their mom.
Her fiancé wasted no time agreeing to let the kids move in, and she has had an awful time adjusting to them. Her fiancé’s kids are 15, 14, and 12.
The 12-year-old constantly curses her out and the 14-year-old basically doesn’t say anything at all.
“I have a lot of trauma from growing up in a household where I was not wanted and it all came rushing back to me one day,” she revealed.
“Tomorrow is our two-year anniversary. He has told me not to say anything about it due to hurting the children. And he says he won’t do anything tomorrow.”
She just can’t believe this is the situation she is now in, and she has no desire to have kids with him due to how emotionally abusive the 12-year-old is to her.
She fears that the 12-year-old will turn on any child she might have, and that obviously concerns her.
Her fiancé does make her feel happy, and that’s the sole reason why she’s still living in this situation.
She is so in love with him, but she doesn’t feel like she can continue doing what she is doing, especially since he wants to ignore their anniversary over his kids.
“This is not how I imagined my happy ending,” she concluded.
