Hi I know we must all be open minded these days and these things happen but like you I would not want to hear all the sordid details. Tell him you don't want to know everything and ask him when he is moving out! You are doing him a good deed by letting him stay but it is your place so lay down some rules. It doesn't mean you aren't a nice person or anything but enough is enough isn't it. Good luck. x

Hello Angelique

Personally I would tell this person to go, it sounds like He has outstayed His welcome. You need your space and cannot be putting up to possible two people who could use your address. You need to move on and live your life without all these possible complications.

Hi Angelique123, I'm sorry to hear you're going through all this with your ex. Honestly, you're a better person than I would be by accepting his proclivity for crossdressing and still allowing him to remain under the same roof with you. These days we're constantly reminded that we must politically correct and accepting of other's behavior whether or not we agree with it. To that I say hogwash! If he can't be respectful enough to keep all the sordid details to himself, then it's time for him to hit the road and find his own place where he can live out his fantasies. Perhaps he can live with the person he's seeing rather than put you through anymore anxiety. I know my statement may sound harsh. If that's the case, I truly mean no harm to you at all, as I'm just giving you my personal opinion. I hope you have the courage and wherewithal to do what suits your best interests rather than just considering his feelings over your own. Good luck with whatever decision you may make. I'll be thinking of you and hoping your decision about how to handle things comes easily.

Hello, I am thinking that some of the responsibility for this situation is on you. You did know he was a crossdresser before you allowed him to move in ? Also I imagine you are capable of telling him he is giving you too much information. I think you should tell him you are sorry for the misunderstanding but, you want him to move out. It's a bad idea to let any ex move in regardless of their proclivities . Pam

for sure set some boundaries ...and set a moving out date if your still not feeling those boundaries are not being respected....your a good person to want to help, but you need your comfort zone in your home too.
