So, I had a long missive in this thread about dating a monogamous woman who I really like, but who is much younger, but who doesn't seem to understand polyamory, is breaching boundaries in a big way, and who I really probably should have broken up with. I had moved too fast, but life complications (story in the thread) made that more difficult that it would otherwise be. However, I definitely can't break up with her now.
She was an assistant in an office in one of the departments at school. Today, the woman who was over the office fired her - via email. The woman had harassed her for months, in a clearly discriminatory fashion. My gf is devastated, and she needed someone to lean on. Of course, the last thing on my mind at the moment is pouring salt in her wounds and making her life more stressful. Like most college students, she is broke and wondering what to do about money (don't worry, I couldn't support her if I wanted to). So, the complications just keep piling up here. Maybe this is some sort of sign? I'm an atheist and usually don't believe in such things, but it's pretty nuts that on the very day I had planned to dump her, something catastrophic happens that makes it damn near impossible for me to do so.
