Nearly two weeks ago, I broke it off with my ex-partner FTM because of his infidelity. My ex has a bit of a high local profile so I haven't been public about why I broke it off with him. I am getting really frustrated with everyone acting like because he is in transition and involved with activism that I should have given him an allowance for bad behavior.
I have been supportive and have done everything from buy him binders, help him find jobs, support him financially, and even buy him hormones. Its not because of his transition that I broke it off which is how he is positioning it among our mutual friends. Its because I came home from a trans community meeting to find him cuddling with another woman on the couch. A woman that I had warned him about and asked him about why he kept slipping away with her and why I never seem to met her, etc. Then I found a video of them kissing on my computer and all this BS. It was truly hurtful all around. He had been a turd for a year before this and has bordered on emotional abusive for some of the relationships so its not all being of the cheating, but that is the rawest wound right now.
I support his causes and I don't want to make him out to be a public ass or anything, but I am so frustrated with this boys will be boys mentality. Has this happened to any of you? How did you deal with it?
