Eight years post-divorce, I finally found love again - with a woman. For the first time, I felt ready to explore this new side of myself. But she moved way too fast, buying engagement rings when I wasn't ready and pressuring me despite my hesitations about coming out to my kids. 💍 When I ended things, she completely lost it. She forced her way into my house, refused to leave when I asked repeatedly, then called the police on ME for shouting at her to get out of my own home! She even threatened to out me to my entire neighborhood. 😰 The whole situation left me shaking and wondering - am I destined to be alone? Sometimes protecting our kids and ourselves means making tough choices, even when others can't understand our pace. Have you ever felt pressured to move faster in a relationship than you were comfortable with? I'd love to hear your thoughts. 💭 #relationships #comingout #parentingstruggles #FamilyRelationships
