Broken is a story that is best read Chronologically to start from the beginning – Prologue
It had been almost 3 weeks of dating. I had met probably 8 women and some multiple times. It was an exhausting pace. I think I even had multiple dates in the same day more than once. It was just nuts. This isn’t even like me but I figured what the hell.
It was wearing on me though. I felt like I was juggling and not giving anyone an honest shot. Although I was honest with everyone of them that I was still getting my feet wet in dating after two relationships. I didn’t mention the timeline of my affair though.
I decided to just hang in get used to being alone when suddenly I see a post from my soon to be ex wife. I decided to like it. I wanted to be supportive. And as I scroll through to see who else. Son of a Bitch! It’s Hailey! WTF! Now Hailey and my wife had been friends on Facebook since before we even met. Just one of those things that moms do with other moms in the class. But still what the fuck!
This seems to be a pretty obvious boundary that was crossed and I was pissed. If you want nothing to do with me that means nothing to do with me. Certainly leave a picture of my ex and daughter alone!! No too mention this is the woman who’s husband you kind of you know…!
I sat and stewed for a day or two trying to figure out what to do. I decided that a conversation needed to happen. She should explain what she thinks she is doing. Plus there was always that possibility she will find out and that would look terrible and hurtful towards my ex.
I messaged her- “Hey, want to catch up?” She said “Oh you are going to talk to me?”. Seriously? We definitely needed to level set and create boundaries. Our lives are in such proximity it was problematic.
We made a plan to meet later that morning. I have no idea what she will say or what will happen. What should I do? All I could think about was ask questions and I had one simple message to give her…
Facebook blows and i like to keep my feed inactive. Drama finds it way there even without anything going on. Anyway, what Hailey did takes some nerve…

Wow- I caught up! I’m up to date at last! Man that was a roller coaster ride to read in one sitting! I’ve been angry, furious, spit bricks and built a wall, wanted to turn into warrior woman and do damage, wanted to hug the life out of you, and squeeze the life out of her, you have made me laugh too, and I experienced your first peeks of somewhere closer to happy since this whole thing began.
Your journey is addictive Matt. Thank you for keep sharing it with us all. xxx
