  • I divorced her after six months of marriage a long time ago. I’m embarrassed by that, but my mistake was in marrying her, not in ending the marriage so quickly. I’m proud that I had the courage to leave.

    I do wonder if there was anything I should have done differently which would have made the marriage work, but I’m more confident about my decision to leave after a more recent ex of hers found me so that he could tell me that she was a “horrible psychopath” who ruined his life. Apparently he knew my name because she told him how bad I had been to her, and after their breakup he suspected that she had been lying.

    As for right now: I’m single but it’s 100% true that being single is better than being in a bad relationship.

    Relationship tests are toxic.

    Hah. The woman I was briefly married to really wanted me to be jealous, but I didn’t realize that at the time. I was just happy for her whenever she told be about her great friends who happened to be men.

    This culminated when she told me it wasn’t fair that I had had other sexual partners in my life but she had not. I replied that if she was asking me for an open relationship and it was really important to her, then it would be something we could discuss. That was not what she wanted to hear.

    She was not a nice person (to put it mildly) so I don’t regret being so clueless.

    I’ve heard that people are often interested in Asian women because they are expected to be subservient. I just think that while women of any ethnicity can be good-looking*, East Asian women are better-looking on average. I wouldn’t call that a fetish the way that you do, and I don’t think it’s somehow worse than a preference for any other sort of physical feature (which I wouldn’t call a fetish either unless it was very extreme).

    *Good-looking to me rather than in an absolute sense.
