I would think that this guy had his chance and was just trying to make trouble, especially if he waits until after a few drinks to tell you this. Oh and not to mention the fawning all over you in front of your Husband. This guy is just trying to make a power play.
Testing his charisma it sounds like. I mean if he was that close seems like he would've said something before now. I would grab my husband and practically make love to him in front of this jerk, and don't forget to tell your Husband how much you love him, in front of your very old close friend who may be attracted to you but is being a real jerk.
He's so wrong on so many levels. He's jealous that you found happiness with someone, and he probably doesn't know how to have a real loving relationship because he's too busy playing games. Gee this guy just gets my goat!
I don't think my partner would be annoyed. I think whether or not your partner is upset with you is largely based on your reaction to the other person's behavior. If the person said they wished we were still together, I may respond by saying something like "of course you do!
I'm an amazing person and you made some pretty stupid mistakes. Fortunately, I found someone I like much better. " Say it with a smile and their head will spin, especially if they're drunk.
When I first ran into the person, I would be sure to introduce my spouse and make it clear that we were in a serious relationship. I think any spouse wants to be introduced not by their name, but by their title and name. As in "this is my boyfriend, Tom" or "this is my wife, Terry," so there is absolutely no confusion.
I always hated when my ex just gave a girl my name. It felt he was saying "this is so-and-so, you know, no one special. " If the person was being uncomfortably forward, and they were not getting my hints (like holding my spouse's hand, or sitting close to him), I would tell the person flat out that their affection is absolutely misplaced, and if there's anything I can do to offer closure, I will, but they need to back off.
If that didn't work, I would tell them my spouse and I have plans that we really need to get to, and leave. If my spouse still looked annoyed, I would make a point of saying something like "well, that guy was annoying. What a jerk.
With the stated stipulation that the spouse is annoyed I'd extract myself from the situation and go somewhere else. But my spouse wouldn't be annoyed. I know how to handle myself.
If I wanted to be with anyone but her I would be and she knows it. We're with each other because we want to be above all others. No one can "take" me away from her.No one.
No threat. No problem. She might wonder why she wasn't included in the affection giving though.
:) But if worse came to worse I'd gladly sit down with the person when they're sober again and explain what's up - with my wife there of course.
I would extract myself from the situation and leave immediately. I would say something like, "I'm sorry we have to go now. You see, I'm on vacation with my husband/boyfriend."
Then I will promptly a public display of affection to my spouse. I will kiss and hug my spouse to make it clear that I am not with my ex anymore and is very happy with my current spouse. Then I'll promptly leave.
I will try to avoid them whenever I can from that moment on.
You if you were on vacation with your spouse and would (without quotes):.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
