Before I met my wife I dated a girl for around 3 ½ years (lived with her for 1 ½, it was a college relationship). We split somewhat amicably, and I focused on work, friends and hobbies for a few months.
After around 6 months I met my wife, dated her for a year, and we’ve been married another 2 years since. We have a pretty great relationship (although she is the jealous type) and we are financially stable. We also have a 3mo old son.
When I first met her I wasn’t completely honest about how long I had dated the last girl, and I didn’t tell her how long I had lived with her. At the time I thought it was the right thing to do, as she had never dated anyone long term before and is from a conservative family so I thought she’d prejudge me.
I was also pretty insensitive and left a few belongings of my x around the house (such as a piece of furniture, and a few pictures), and from time to time would bring up stories from that era related to trips I took or experiences I had.
