    I'm not sure that I'd consider someone who you've been involved with for ten years and who you only see once a week (despite not living far away from each other) as much of a relationship.

    Thanks for the reply, it's still ongoing, can you love two women? I know I will have to make a decision. I realise my my behaviour isn't good. I realise my actions, deceit aren't good. I know what I have to do will cause hurt. I'm living two lives at the moment.........

    it's been 6/7 weeks since you posted, long enough to reflect on advice.

    are you going to do anything, or are you just here for attention of some kind?

    I did indeed read it before posting, thanks, and he appears to be still messing about with 2 women and not told either of them. Also seems to have avoided the STI check question.

    Therefore, has done nothing, and need to **** or get off the pot. As he seems to be doing neither, and has no further questions, I can only asume he's here for attention or is trolling.

  • Ok look....if you have met somebody else and have taken that step then there was something obviously missing from your long.term relationship..I think you know what you want..your new love..you just are scared about entering into the unknown and leaving your old partner behind. As a women is say go for it..life is far too short for regrets my friend x

    Worthless piece of ............... (insert whatever you feel is appropriate). Just the type that will one day end up in one room, no friends, muttering "why me", "what did I do to deserve this".

    Cause hurt? I should think once both women actually find out what you are really like they'll thank their lucky stars to have got away from you.

    You make it read as if everyone is a walking STI bag, whilst it is a risk it is much smaller than portrayed, I would confidently guess that most people here have had more than one physical partner and only a tiny tiny amount have caught anything.

    It is not to say the OP has been physical with both, but we all know physicality is not all there is to a relationship, and with relationships it is not one hat fits all.

    .

    I object to him imposing a risk on others without their being aware there is a risk.

    That's just scummy. And I do not believe for one moment he's had a conversation about "let's not PIV". It'd be an astoundingly suprising burst of sense and morals, given the context.

    My friend caught chlamydia off an ex partner and it took years for it to show. Some stis have no obvious outward signs. It's always better to get tested.

    Why would you string someone else along knowing that you want to be with someone else?

    I still may have missed the post where the OP is sleeping with the two, and where the two are probably sleeping with others.
    I guess the next GF I have I best insist they have prove they have a clean bill of health and an excellent credit score?
