What’s going on is that the guy is a player who likes to sleep around.

When someone better comes along he has no problem either cheating on a previous one or dumps her all together and he also doesn’t like to be confronted. He sounds like bad news.

Why do you think you are even considering such a man? Him cheating on his wife for 10 years (all through her illness too) kind of had to be red flag right there. It’s no surprise he later sees more than one woman and keeps them in the dark about it. He is a serial cheater

His behavior has nothing to do with age and his friends not approving him dating younger woman in no shape or form explains his behavior. Unfortunately he sounds like a total user. I call BS on “unbreakable bond”.

Are you seeing a therapist to address roots of your attraction to a man with quite low morals and tendencies to lie? If not I recommend it.
