Here is a Love Question

I wasn't going to respond to this but I can't help myself. I think I would have known the jerk wasn't going to change, no matter what, so giving him his card was a BIG mistake. He belongs back in Mexico. We already have too many users and losers in this country and they aren't just Mexicans but, if he didn't have the card at least it would be one less. He will never be a contributer to not just you but society in general. It amazes me and most other people how cruel some guys are to women and yet the women keep taking them back. They will bad mouth the guy one day and jump into bed with them the next day. I don't know what causes that and I'm not finding fault, I'm just pointing out a reality that is beyond my understanding is all. I'm sure it's REAL feelings for you and others that go through the same experience but, like I said, beyond me. I just hope your recovery speeds up and you can begin to enjoy life to it's fullest. It's too short to waste on that fool. The time you spend thinking about how crappy he treated you is just more of your life ruined, not his. I wouldn't make a very understanding therapy guy huh? "Here, have a tissue" comes to mind. ;D

What packerbacker said. Should have never given the card. Now the next thing, is don't override the next guy and ruin it. That's usually what happens in my personal experiences over time. Seen it repeatedly.
 

Well he is in Mexico. After he left he stayed in Texas for four months and couldnt find work so he moved back to Mexico and is living with the other woman. I told him I was filing reports with immigration and that he would have to tell the judge about what happened said he didnt want to go through the experience. He told me he has no self respect and didnt truly realize what damage he had done until he faced me. I dont feel sorry for him, I still have lots of anger and am dealing with this. I think it will be another year before his case comes up before immigration and was told that he will be removed of his residency. I am working on myself right now. Both physically and mentally. I havent dated for a year I am really trying to not put this on anyone else. I am back in Iowa at my old job, as Manager of an Abstract Company, so I am financially getting my life put together. I get stronger everyday and I hope someone can learn something from this experience. I do talk to someone who lives in Florida and I hope to see him in September. I am taking things very slowly. Thanks to those of you who have given me your support. Just me Linda, getting through the rough stuff.

It DOES sound like you are recovering well. He's just playing on your sympathy again so you don't file anything against him. For you to say that you don't feel sorry for him is a big step. If there were a "Give-him-the-bird" icon on here, I'd send him one. You're right on with "Taking it slow" also. Don't rush into anything serious 'til you know it will work. :thumbsup:
 

I live in Mexico, and am going to give a different perspective on this.

He sounds to me much like a normal, ordinary everyday Mexican man. I like the Mexicans, but if you want marital fidelity, Mexican men are not the source. I know many Mexican women who marry North American men, and stay married their entire lives to them. I do not know of ONE Mexican man who married a North American woman and was married to her for ten years, period. Mexico is very "male friendly" and not much happens to most unfaithful men. A lot of men aren't even requested to pay child support for their out-of-wedlock children, though technically the law has such provisions.

They can be very charming. They teach each other all the tricks, but even more they practice them. In the US, we men can't practice seductive techniques, because of sex harassment laws. Not just at work, but on the street. So, a North American woman who encounters a highly trained and gifted Mexican seducer is like the deer when the pioneers first introduced firearms. The deer allegedly stood there, all trusting and innocent, as the hunter aimed and fired. They absolutely don't know what they are facing, and believe those sweet words of love.

He wanted his papers. He got them. Let it go. You messed up, he told you what you wanted to hear, you believed him, and he is gone. Do not let revenge, no matter how well deserved it is, drag you down to his level. Admit your mistake, warn other women of Mexican men, and get on with your life as you desire.

Now, as to the other woman. Many of the Mexican women can be very good wives, but they are not all the same. Some Mexican women can also be very aggressive, which this woman sounds like.

I am 69 years old, and have been faithful to my Mexican wife of 36 years, for all 36 years. I never once seriously considered adultery until I was, um, 68 years old. ;D

My wife goes back and forth to the States. Over a year ago, a 21 year old married woman, need I say very attractive at that, started "flirting" with me. I'd say rather extreme seductive behavior to put it bluntly. I am innocent/stupid enough it took me a while to realize what she was doing.

An example, but only an example, is the minute I went on the property to see her in-laws, she would start to breast-feed her baby. From my own observations of my mother many years ago, I could tell the baby wasn't hungry, and of course she had to know that as well. (Moms aren't that dumb.) But, this gave her an excuse to, ahem. And, they were a pleasant sight, I gotta' say. She knew what she was doing. The amazing thing was she'd do this stuff in front of her mother-in-law...

As I said this is only an example. Once, she giggled non-stop the whole ten minutes I was there, and nothing funny was happening. Lots more, and yes, I am sure. I wasn't at first, but a dear friend, a woman in her 50's, who is more like a sister, assured me I was not wrong in my interpretation.

Well, I eventually learned I am not a saint. I thought I was, heh, heh.

After several months of this, I actually started thinking it was a good idea. :laughing9: If it were not for a lifetime of very strong self discipline, I cannot say I would have evaded her desires. (And, let me add, as immodest as it might be, I am not an ugly old man even if I am an old man. Plus I adore her daughters.)

I haven't failed (yet) and I finally think she has given up. But, I can tell you, an aggressive Mexican woman, especially a very attractive one, can be very hard to resist. I suspect this man made no effort to resist her.
 

What a load of crap. I messed up how? By having faith in a human being. If what you are saying is true we better make a fence to the moon to keep out the pigs south of the border. Piegrande do you really believe what you are saying, what Mexico is all about adulterers and or as the news portrays drugdealers. Please good people live there also. Just because they are brought up in a male friendly culture right is right and wrong is wrong. Mexico has lost is pride, families, dignity maybe that is why it is so messed up. There is I agree very little Honor left among the Mexicans except for the oldtimers who just look at their country and shake their heads.
