I made a comment to my ex-husband when we signed our divorce, and his girlfriend now accuses me of being the reason he didn’t propose to her on Christmas. Hello and happy new year. My ex-husband and I, both late 40’s were a real love story for 17 years. He was my world and I loved everything about him. I thought he loved me too but about 2 years ago for about 2 months he was changed. The change was so palpable that I knew it in my heart that it was another woman. He stopped kissing me good morning or good night. Stopped asking me on dates and always declined when I did. He didn’t doze off with his head in my lap to a movie every evening always missing the end. Now he even sat on the other couch. He stopped saying he loved me, and he stopped texting me during the day. I didn’t know what to do other than wait and see and sure enough after 2 months he told me he wasn't in love and wanted a divorce. I was heartbroken but I couldn’t do anything about it. I would never beg someone to love me no matter how much I loved them. He moved out and started the divorce. His new girlfriend, early 30’s moved in with him not long after. My ex-husband is very successful, and our divorce was finalized a couple of weeks ago. I haven’t seen my ex-husband much since he moved out. I don’t know what got into me, I have kept civil and prideful during the separation. I was surprised that he was with his lawyer because I thought he just signed and didn’t need to be there. I signed and then I looked at him for the first time in 2 years and just without giving myself the time to stop and keep my dignity I smiled and said that he now lost the last woman who he would know for sure ever loved and saw him for him and not for his money or assets. He was too smiling at first probably relieved that I finally was fine enough to look at him again. He complained to our son that I never looked at him anymore. His smile faltered and turned into a shock then he started crying. I was terrified of what I did and just left almost running. I got a text from his girlfriend this morning with many insults about me, my character and my looks and age. Because he was supposed to have proposed on Christmas with all family present, but he didn’t. He now refuses to talk about it with her or any of her family and she means that it was my fault. I ruined their relationship. I blocked her but I can’t help but wonder if I really did ruin their relationship. I even wonder if I care. All I know is that he looked so old and pathetic. I wonder if I ever really knew him or loved him.
