Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 19, 2016 17:55:05:
Thanks honey! I just got home and I'm organizing my thoughts by writing them down so I can figure out how to get everything ready! My Dad is coming down tomorrow to help me move and get lunch! He'll leave around 2pm so he can get back at a decent hour!
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 19, 2016 17:56:22:
So I guess I can't come to the naked pool party! I need to get everything moved out!

He will get here around 10:30 and leave probably around 2:30
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 19, 2016 17:57:24:

Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 21, 2016 18:41:35:
I am pretty much done!
Molly and I are in my new apartment. I moved a lot of shit into the hallway to be picked up by St Vincent. There are a few items left at my apartment like a vacuum and broom so I can do some cleaning, but other than that it's pretty much empty. The only big thing left in my apartment is the area rug because I couldn't pick it up to move it. I'm gonna ask the movers to get it from my apartment tomorrow!

OK. Fair enough.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:14:00:
Last night you told me something that made me let go of your hand. You said, "Maybe you just don't have the capacity in your brain to think, 'How would this affect Nick?' Maybe that part of your brain just isn't there."
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 14:14:19:
I think the best thing would be to lay out some rules and/or expectations. I legitimately did not think that what I was doing was over the line, but I understand and hear you that you feel differently. I think that we need to communicate what we are expecting from each other. I also think that the details of what I've been doing will be far less disturbing to you than the undefined endless mass of possibilities. Honesty, love and respect are at the core of how I want to operate, but like we've said, we need to not just assume what the other is thinking/doing. I do feel that when I've agreed to follow a rule, I've done exactly that. I also can see how, from your perspective, your expectations were not met. I didn't want to have that conversation right then because I wanted to do it justice and we really haven't had a good chance yet to do that. My mistake was in thinking that timing and venue were more important than they actually are.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 14:14:51:
I said that?
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:15:21:
Those were your words. I remember them because after that I let go of your hand
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:15:47:
If you remember I had been holding your hand to be supportive as you told me your feelings
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 14:15:48:
Hm. I think that is a fear I have.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 14:16:18:
I must've really been letting things out, unfiltered.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 14:20:33:
I'm honestly a little scared sometimes to bring things up with you. I need to do better. You said that my behavior was paternalistic. I can see that.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:27:41:
It was extremely insulting to say the least and in light of recent developments, really hypocritical.
I agree we need to communicate more. The problem was that you did not respect me. If one person in a relationship decided to see other people without telling the other person, while knowing that person would be upset by it, it's very disrespectful. And just wrong. To add insult to injury, you decided to do this without telling me while I was going through a really tough time. It hurts to think you had decided to see other people and not tell me, but send me texts saying that you loved me and support me. It feels like everything was a lie. Text me your support while not respecting me enough to tell me you're seeing other people in St Louis while I'm having an abortion by myself in Florida. Thanks a lot. I wonder if you would have had the guts to tell me that if you actually came to see me. You didn't once think about how it should affect me that you're seeing other people and that you chose to hide it from me.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:30:04:
Really you must have such superior empathy than mine to ahead and decide to see other people without telling your girlfriend while she's in another state having an abortion. Great. Maybe my poor undeveloped brain will be able to learn from yours.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:30:59:
It was really considerate of you to do that and I see how it was in my best interest to be lied to and excluded from the decision process.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 14:31:29:
This is the kind of response that makes me afraid to communicate with you.

I don't appreciate your attempt to silence me and gaslight me.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:36:59:
I think you did a really shitty thing and you should own up to it rather than make excuses for yourself
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:39:49:
When I was really vulnerable and by myself, you decided it was a great idea to see other people and not tell me about it. I don't know how you can point to me and tell me I lack empathy when you choose to do something you know would upset me normally and decide that you'll choose the right time to let me know what's going on. Complete disregard for what I would want or how I would feel.

All this while feigning support from St Louis. Pretending like you're there for me while you were lying to me.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 14:41:38:
That's how you see it. I asked if you wanted me to come there and you said no.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 14:42:47:
I wanted to come age thought about coming even when you said no, buy I respected your wishes. There was nothing more important to me than being supportive of you. I did not think that me saying other people would change that.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:43:21:
Would you have had the guts to tell me if you did come? I wonder if you could look me in my eyes tell me you love me and support me, and then tell me you are going to start dating other people.
You from StL: "I'm here for you babe. I'll be here again after my date that I've chosen to go on without you knowing she choosing not to tell you about."
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:44:16:
Thanks a lot for that support. It means so much to me to know that while I was struggling you decided it was time to see other people and not tell me
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 14:44:27:
You see that as a betrayal, but I didn't think we were monogamous.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:45:04:
You had told me you weren't seeing anyone else and that you were only looking for friends!!!
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:45:53:
So yes, you would have to tell me if that changed, if you had any respect for me at all. And you even admitted you thought it was worthy of telling me even though "we weren't monogamous".
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 14:45:58:
I said that it was I posted on OKCupid, which was true. And, every person that I have give out with has been with the intent of making friends.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:46:54:
It is so insulting to me that you would even use "we weren't monogamous" as an excuse to lie to me
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 14:46:55:
And I planned to. I already apologized for not telling you sooner. I told you what my reasons were and that I won't make that mistake again.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 14:47:26:
I didn't lie.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:47:45:
Yes you did. You purposely withheld information from me
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:47:57:
Information you knew was significant to me
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:48:31:
And you did it because it was inconvenient for you. You wanted to date right away and didn't want to wait to talk to me first
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:48:47:
You didn't have enough respect for me to do that
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 14:49:30:
You are telling me what is in my head.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 14:49:50:
And you aren't trusting me when I say that isn't how I saw it.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 14:50:08:
Who is the expert on my reasons?
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:50:56:
No, I'm repeating what you told me. You purposely withheld information from me. And it was information that you knew was significant to me. That's a lie.
You can have your reasons for it.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:51:17:
Justify lying to me however you want.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 14:51:28:
You said that it was because I don't respect you.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 14:52:47:
I planned to tell you. If you had asked, I would have told you, but I felt an in person conversation was better. In the meantime, I told people that I was interested in friendship and potentially open in the future. I set certain boundaries.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 14:53:45:
I did it because I, mistakenly, believed that was best, not out of disrespect or dishonesty.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:53:52:
Okay, well it's up to you to tell me if that's the case or not. But you did lie to me and I need you to acknowledge that that's what you did.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:54:11:
Regardless of intent, it was a lie.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 14:55:49:
Are you telling me that you always tell me things upfront? I didn't even think that I was under an obligation to tell you. I wanted to tell you. I don't see that as a lie. I'm really sorry for my bad judgement, but I just don't see it as a lie.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:57:44:
How can I make it more clear?
You PURPOSELY withheld information from me. Information that you KNEW was significant to me.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:57:59:
That is a standard definition of a lie.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:58:17:
It's called lying by omission.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 14:59:18:
It's not that you gave to tell me all things. It's that you purposely chose not to tell me something that was significant to me. And you knew it was significant to me.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 15:02:20:
It's hard for me to believe that you don't understand that concept. But I want to believe it, because if you do understand the concept it means that right now you're doing something even worse.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 15:07:27:
We're about to take off. I want to better understand what you're saying and what you're feeling on this. I'm willing to work through it, but I won't say that I lied until I believe that. I'm open to understanding that I did though. I really do genuinely love you and my support has always been authentic. I really want you to believe me on this. I'm also really sorry that my decisions hurt you.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 15:11:37:
I hope you have a safe flight.
It's hard for me to believe that when you were lying to me at the same time. To understand whether or not you lied answer these two questions: 1.) Did I purposely withhold information from Adriane? 2.) Did I know that that information was significant to Adriane? If you answer yes to those two questions, you can understand that you lied.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 16:27:16:
You had prior knowledge that I do not like you seeing other people.
You decided to start seeing other people and to not tell me about it, knowing that it would upset me. The last we spoke of it you were not seeing other people. How can you not see that that is a lie. It's not even a small lie. It's not gray area. It's big and easy to spot. If you take it out of context and pretend you don't know me, that we aren't close. Pretend you didn't think it would bother me or that it didn't matter you could probably convince your friends that it was not a lie. However that would be deceitful too.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 16:27:17:
You betrayed my trust that you would be honest with me. And it's not just "that's how I feel". It's that that's what you did.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 16:27:17:
And it's not that I want to persecute you. I'd like to get past it, but I can't do that if you can't even acknowledge what you did and that you lied to me.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 16:27:22:
What's more upsetting is that you asked me to get checked for STDs and alluded to wanting to protect other people. Like that's how I found out. Because you were worried about people you may want to sleep with.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 16:27:22:
It's so messed up. I can't believe that you would do all of this.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 16:27:28:
And to your previous comment about "not having an obligation" to tell me. That's complete bullshit. I have every right to know as your intimate partner, your girlfriend, somebody you say you love, who else you're seeing and if you are sleeping with other people or have plans to. I hate that you're looking for other people for the future. Like as if I'm a "just for now" person.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 16:27:28:
The level of disrespect is really incredible.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 16:27:28:
I can't believe you have the nerve to argue with me on any of this.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 16:34:39:
While you were off looking for someone to date next, I was planning a future with us together. Roger had asked me if I planned to come back to to Florida for my fourth year and I told him no. I wanted to stay in St Louis to continue to grow things with you. Meanwhile, without even having the deceny to tell me, you start dating other people.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 16:35:34:
Just landed on my first leg. I want to be clear in saying that I think it is more important that you feel lied to than whether or not you "were" lied to. For your two item test above, I feel that I underestimated the significance of the information to you a bit, but that I wasn't keeping it from you. Again, I planned to talk about it.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 16:37:35:
Regarding STIs, it is about my personal peace of mind, nothing else.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 16:42:21:
Okay, but it's important to me that you recognize and acknowledge that you lied to me. You were keeping it from me because you didn't tell me about it and you did it. Planning to tell me about something and actually telling me about it are two different things.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 16:43:32:
You lied and cheated on me as far as I'm concerned
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 17:13:21:
I honestly feel like you don't even want to be with me. I mean you already decided to see other people without even consulting me. Last night you kept using the phrase "not a match". I'm not a noob, I know what that means.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 17:17:45:
I do want to be with you. I'm trying to figure out how to respond. We're about to board our next didn't.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 17:25:07:
Okay. It hurts to know that when I was going through shit and texting you that I wish you were there, you were making plans to go out on dates.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 17:26:29:
It wasn't exactly like you're picturing, and I was more than happy to come to be there with you.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 17:28:26:
Sure, you'd visit and then let me know that you're going to start seeing other people.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 17:32:42:
Now that I know that is what you want, I'll do that differently if something like this happens in the future.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 17:33:56:
I also was on the phone with you for hours and went to bed with you. That wasn't inauthentic.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 17:38:17:
Lying and cheating is about intent. I have consistently waited for times that I thought were good to bring things up. That is why I waited on STIs. I didn't want to add to the trauma of those events. Best choice? Probably not given what I know now. I will be rethinking my behavior on this. But, my choice to delay is consistent with that and not about withholding. I didn't deny anything. I also respect that you feel lied to and cheated on. That is really important to me. I'm really sorry that I made you feel that way.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 17:41:02:

Okay. Have a safe flight
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 20:08:05:
I'm very upset. Regardless of whether or not you believe you lied to me, you still made a choice to see other people without even consulting me. And for the record, I am not okay with it, in case I haven't made it explicitly clear already. I thought we were building something. I didn't realize that you had given up and started looking elsewhere for your future partners
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 20:08:06:
I also wish you did admit that you lied. It bothers me that you don't understand it. "I was going to tell you later on" is not a substitute for actually telling me before you do something like that.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 20:08:07:
You were texting me while I was in Florida that you felt really close to me. At the same time you were seeing other people without even telling me.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 20:08:08:
It's bullshit. You did lie and you did cheat on me. You can keep telling me condescendingly that "I understand you feel that way", but what I want is for you to understand it and to admit it. While your sympathy for my pain is okay, what's more important is that you acknowledge what you actually did rather than deny it.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 20:08:09:
I'm really sad that this happened.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 20:10:48:

I just landed. I would never be alright with keeping you in the dark.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 20:12:29:
I'm going to gather my thoughts on this. I'll try to get them to you soon. It will depend on when I get a free minute.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 20:13:29:
If it wasn't important enough to consult me on it first, maybe it wasn't important enough for me to know. Apparently we are not that close. According to you, you had "no obligations" to me.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 20:19:52:
It's not like we are intimately involved. It's not like we've ever talked about a future together. It's not like I mean a lot to you, so why would you consult me? After all we never agreed to be monogamous. I should have assumed that you would not tell me and decide to date other people while I was in Florida. You are a free agent with no obligations to anybody, especially not me.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 20:21:14:
"girlfriend" is just a title and doesn't mean anything to you. To you there's no difference between friendships and relationships.

Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 20:35:26:
Now I'm supposed to believe you that your actions were motivated by wanting to make our relationship better. That you honestly thought that you deciding to see other people without telling me would make me happy and bring us closer together. That you were not in self-interest.

Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 20:37:22:

Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 20:38:10:
It definitely was not about your own personal interest and no one else's.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 20:41:54:
Now that you're dating you can tell me about them. Since you planned to tell me anyway, go ahead. It's what you independently planned for us. Tell me about your dates. Anybody you really like? Maybe a new best friend? I bet they're all lovely people.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 20:42:07:
I didn't say what you're pretending that I said. I'm honestly too tired of this right now to try and explain it again. It feels that you're intentionally twisting what I say to justify how you feel. I feel shitty too. Good for us. I was just thinking that I wish you were here to see Jackson Hole.

Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 21:00:33:
Your responses hurt worse. Telling me that you don't have any obligations to me. Telling me we weren't monogamous anyway. As if it doesn't matter that you didn't bother to tell me until after the fact. As if I don't mean anything to you.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 21:01:24:
To be clear, I didn't mean to say that I have no obligations to you at all.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 21:01:37:
You really disrespected me. And I cannot accept that it was not in self interest. There's no way it benefits me or us. If it benefited someone, it was only you.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 21:05:16:
Well let me be clear. You have an obligation to me to tell me if you plan to date other people or sleep with other people. You should already know that. That's something that polyamorous people do too.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 21:06:12:
Poly people have many different rule sets. There isn't a universal set of rules.

That's my rule set. So now you know, if I didn't tell you before.

I don't like that you disrespect me
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 21:11:13:
OK. Fair enough. I'd, again, rather have this conversation face to face, but when we've known each other under five months and only half that time we've actually been together and dating, you asking to be exclusive is likely not something that I'm OK with. I also feel that you just broke a commitment.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 21:11:56:
But, whatever. I'm the villain for not following rules that you never stated.
I sent the following to Adriane on Aug 24, 2016 21:17:08:
I'm crushed by this, but I know you are too. I trust that you didn't want us to be here, so I'm not blaming you. It just really sucks because you're really important to me.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 21:23:23:
I don't like that you can't admit you lied
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 21:23:27:
You do not even want to understand. You might not even be capable of it.
You're okay with having a kid with me. You're okay with talking about a family. But you don't want exclusivity. That's fine. It's your choice.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 24, 2016 21:24:58:
And you broke a commitment of being fucking honest with me. Really, like why would I have to spell that out for you for you to know to do that?

Would you be open to seeing a counselor with me?
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 25, 2016 08:47:41:
Gee, Adriane is under the assumption that I'm not seeing anyone else or looking to date because that's what I told her. I wonder if I should let her know that I'm deciding to date again. I wonder if I should ask her how she feels before I make that decision. Nah, she's in FL having an abortion, so I'll cope by dating other women and I'll let her know in a month or two.
Adriane sent the following to me on Aug 25, 2016 08:48:02:
You decided to see other people without telling me, and you knew it would upset me.
Then you tell me that you don't want to be exclusive with me, even though that's what we were doing until you decided to see other people without consulting me. That is a huge breach of trust. How does this show I'm important to you? I'm sure you've shown in some other ways. But this really hurts. You broke my trust and then told me things that made me feel I don't matter at all to you.

It upsets me that you won't acknowledge it. You only say "sorry you're hurt". You won't acknowledge that you lied to me.

I want to know that you understand it
