Stop the friendship. You can't be friends with someone that is trying to get with you. Out of respect for your relationship, you should be staying away from this guy.
Hi. 52m here. Let me offer some wisdom based on age and gender.
You would be fully and completely justified in ending the relationship based on his behavior. No one in a committed relationship should disappear for two days, and even more so when there are sex workers involved. it is utterly unacceptable no matter how you look at it.
His actions reveal two important red flags. First, he disappeared for two days. Second, he either did it deliberately or he lost control of himself in the presence of strippers and alcohol/drug/peer pressure.
Either way, he is not good relationship material…..even if prior to this he was a saint. People need to be accountable for their behavior by (1) doing the right thing and (2) avoiding situations where they may lose control or be tempted to act inappropriately.
Do yourself a favor, as painful as it may be, end the relationship and find a man who truly loves and respects you.
Throw the ex away. Even IF (big IF) he and his boss didn't sleep with each other (doubtful), he avoided telling you everything until they were already in Hawaii. He is a dumbass. Good on you to tell him he broke your trust.
I know this is logical course of action but I do not understand why would she behave like this. I did not do anything that made her behave like this to me, I did not ask her out etc. tried to be friendly and she was friendly too(which is strange since she normally is quiet type). I am stupid, I know, but I care what people think about me and feel sad that I had talked with her so much during this week and she behaves like I do not exist.
He's gaslighting and manipulating you. He's not taking any responsibility for his behavior, refuses to he held accountable, and never showed any genuine remorse. He doesn't respect you. Just block him and LEAVE!! He's a liar, a cheater, and just plain trash. He insinuated to his friends he's using you for your body. He's a POS. You deserve better. Do not let him guilt you or manipulate you into staying with him. Do not let him make you feel like you're overreacting because you aren't!!
But… the whole point of this post is that there was more to the story than you know. Why can’t there be even more beyond that? Admittedly, I don’t know, but neither do you. It’s up to you and your comfort whether that matters to you or not.
I don’t think that’s it. They didn’t even know about it. They are all full blooded siblings. He’s mad she cheated on her first husband with his current father (her husband)
Good! I wish you the best. It’s really unbelievable though that he’d rather lose you than grow up and be normal. It came down to that choice and he decided he’d rather be divorced, single, and childish than married, in a loving relationship, and not childish. That’s got to hurt, not being able to understand why he refused to stop doing the things that ruined your relationship.
Hold on you’re 2 years younger than her, working when she isn’t, you don’t have any kids, and you’re looking to address her getting mad at waking her up when you have work?? She can get over it, unless your house is a pig pen she really does nothing all day she can literally just go back to sleep. This is a non issue and honestly would make me reevaluate that “relationship”
Ok wow. This is a LOT. There’s nothing wrong with causal dating especially at your age. You aren’t dating to get married you are dating for FUN and you are dating to see what kind of man you like and don’t like. You are also learning and experiencing what you will and what you will not tolerate in a relationship. You also don’t marry an older financially stable person. You marry someone you love. Marriage is damn hot and without love as a background it’s hell. You are setting yourself up for misery and abuse if you are just looking for older and someone with money. Heck YOU can and should make your own money! Don’t rely on a guy to take care of you, always have a plan and a way to support yourself if SHTF. (I’m old enough to be your mom BTW). While I can’t say I love the difference in your ages traditionally in THIS case there is zero wrong with having fun and casual times with a younger guy. Relax. You’ve don’t nothing wrong and there are no SHOULD’s when you are 21. Have fun. Stop beating yourself up over having a fun time with a guy. It sounds incredibly innocent and fun. No big deal
Be miserable or motivate yourself. The people you envy did things or are doing things in order to get where they are. Choices. Watch them or do. you.

That’s because you are being controlling.
Some people just have naturally lower libidos. How do you suggest she changea that?
Have you asked him to turn on the heat and nude water? Have you asked him if he would if you contributed towards the utility bills?
If not then love it or leave it.
Should you walk away from someone that doesn’t want to rush I to a living situation with someone they have been dating for 5 months?
No.
You should relax a little bit and let this relationship develop more naturally. You are the one rushing this.
You haven’t even lived close to each other yet. You have no idea what it will be like to live with this person.
Live! close to each other for a year. Spend a ton of time together, then decide if it’s worth moving in.
There is 100% absolutely no reason at all to rush into a living situation with. New boyfriend.

U are an idiot.
Are u even sure she was pregnant.
U need to break up and stay single for a while
I don’t think that’s it. They didn’t even know about it. They are all full blooded siblings. He’s mad she cheated on her first husband with his current father (her husband)
I will accept whatever he decides to do.

Wait? Why didn't you just reread his texts? He probably thinks you have a drinking problem.

I have for sure thought about love bombing, I even mentioned it to my bestfriend and my therapist.
He’s military and I teach. I have a bad ankle and would love to get that fixed

I think her ignoring it speaks volumes about how she feels on the topic.
If you bump into her maybe try saying hi but don't bring it up further.
