Confused mom looking for advice

[Single Mom Still In Love]

Hi, I am V, a mom to an 8 year old kid.

I am a trans woman, and co-parenting my child along with my ex-spouse (a cis woman with a great career who is currently in another city, hence the child is with me full-time right now so that her schooling isn't disrupted). My work is mostly online so I am able to give enough time to parenting.

After my ex-spouse and I separated, I had a couple of years of bad experiences in the dating world, and then found a young queer woman with whom I was in a relationship for 5+ years. I found out just two weeks ago that she was cheating on me. However, what has happened since then in the last two weeks, has left me really confused about what I should do. I have posted more details about it in the Poly Relationships Corner.

Greetings Single Mom Still In Love,
Welcome to our forum. Please feel free to lurk, browse, etc.

I had a look at your other thread, and responded there briefly. To summarize, I believe you should end things with A unless she agrees to do relatively appropriate behaviors. Right now she is doing a lot of secret-keeping, and that is not cool. I hope you can work things out.

Sincerely,
Kevin T., "official greeter"
