I dated someone who was separated, but not yet divorced. I was apprehensive, especially as I'd be the first he would have dated, but he had said the marriage had been over for a long time, and that they were waiting the 3 months out because they had to prove they tried everything they could to save the marriage for a year before they could file. We didn't date for long, maybe 2 months. It was obvious he wanted some flings rather than a relationship, he unmatched me on the site but carried on WhatsApping me to meet but became "far busier" so it went from 3 to 4 dates a week to 1 date, and he'd started to make out I waas lucky to even be seeing him at all this month. He also became obsessed with not having to make compromises with me, and sharing would always go in his favour because he had been sharing and compromising for 12 years and didn't want to anymore. I mean most of us do it for it our whole lives, but I did understand where he was coming from. He was also quite patronising. He would talk about finding outings with 2 girls hard because he was 1 man and I couldn't understand how hard that was. Pointed out I worked in a school and would have 4 to 6 children in my group out of 30, 60, 90 and 120 we had to look out for. He would go on about being a young parent, he was 29 when his first was born. He also mentioned he threw himself into dating rather quickly after he found out his ex had signed up on a dating site. Told him I thought we wanted different things. We still had tickets for an event 6 weeks later, and he convinced me to go as friends. Spent the whole time getting annoyed I had spotted potential Christmas presents for friends and not mentioned one for him. He grilled me about dating, started telling me about all the great girls he was meeting, then wished me the same luck. Ihad been dating someone exclusively for a month at that point, and he was pissed off, and then got angry one of the things I bought at the event for the guy Iwas dating. I mean, not all people will be like that, it was partly down to his personality too. He also didn't really know what he wanted...just wanted to move on before his ex I think. He later dated a friend of a friend, and she said the same things I had, 8 months later.
