Letter to our Agony Aunt

Dear Patricia Marie,

My married boyfriend was supposed to have booked us a trip away this coming weekend, which I was very much looking forward to. Yet, over the festive season, when he discretely called me, he wouldn’t confirm this, and kept avoiding the subject.  We have been together for two years and he promised me last Christmas that he would leave his wife for me. He told me that I would be in his arms this New Year’s Eve, but it never happened. He says there is never a right time to tell his wife that he's leaving her for me, but that he will sort it in the New Year. I want to believe him but I don't feel I can trust him anymore. My sister is going away this weekend for a few days and wants me to join her, but I don't know what to do.

 Patricia Marie says...

There are far too many women out there waiting for their married lovers to leave their wives, but more often than not, these cheating men never do, and continue to keep their options open. Even if your lover did eventually leave his wife, remember that very true saying; "When a man marries his mistress, he creates a vacancy". My advice to you is to go away with your sister, or you may just find yourself feeling very much alone and disappointed in the coming days. Instead of hanging around for more empty promises, stop wasting your time on someone who is already spoken for. Make 2023 the year you finally accept you are worth more than being somebody's mistress and go and find what you do deserve - your very own man.
