5 years of my life wasted, to the biggest LVM in existence...but the scariest part is how well he played the part of HVM. I don't know how to trust ANYONE after this..

*He text me after our first date saying I was such a lovely, intelligent, engaging woman and he'd love to see me again - no mention of attractive, sexy etc, thought I was on to a winner. * He asked permission to hold my hand and to kiss me for the first time. * He told me he would wait whatever amount of time I felt was suitable, before we had sex, whether that was weeks or months. So that I was entirely comfortable. * He regularly complained about men he knew, in work etc, who objectified or were disrespectful to women. * Told me he wanted me to have full access to his devices so I would always know he had nothing to hide. *Paid for everything. * Did all the housework to the point I often joked he should leave me some, so I could feel like an equal partner! * Was an amazing dad to his little boy, my step son.

Two months after our wedding, I found out he was a sex addict, cheating with prostitutes from the day I met him.

So. Yeah.... 5 years and 20k I'll never get back. How do you trust after that? Even when you think you have a hvm.. you don't.
