Lets just call this one "W"

I received a strange Merry Christmas facebook message the other day. It was from W, who was the guy I dated before H2 (husband #2). I completely remember why I stopped talking to W, as he wanted to remain "friends" (with benefits) after I was exclusively dating H2. We went out to dinner the night before I left for Alaska and I found out midway through the dinner he had bet another friend that he could get me into bed. Two things were wrong with this, first of all, seriously W, we aren't in high school anymore. You and your buddies don't need to bet on if your going to get some, honestly it probably means your not going to once the girl in the equation finds out and secondly I was in a committed relationship!! I remember him running his hand down my leg and me looking at his buddy across the booth saying "and then there is this dumbass who thinks he has a chance at getting laid tonight..." then I got sick of him, grabbed my purse and left.

Well, in a moment of weakness I wrote him back and it spurred on a conversation. This conversation was an apology from W because he had been a jerk, although couldn't remember why he had been a jerk, along with a brag fest of what he was doing with his life. I'm happy that things are going well, but honestly it was over the top. Not once did he ask about me or how I was doing, other than finding out that i'm separated from H2. I tentatively agreed to go out with him, although something wasn't settling well with my gut.

Before going out I called him on the reason why we stopped talking and his behavior. I had told him previously I didn't remember why we stopped talking because I wanted to see if he'd admit it. Suddenly he didn't remember either. At that point I pulled the plug and realized i'm better than that and deserve more than W can ever offer me. If he was willing to be that disrespectful to H2 by knowing that i'm taken and still trying to get me in bed - what would he be willing to do behind my back - who knows!

I'm a good person with good values who cares about others. I'm not going to settle for W who obviously hasn't realized high school is over.
