1
Bad Choices Dear Dr. Tracy, I am a 33-year-old divorced woman with four kids.
2
I was married for 12 years and have been divorced for approximately three years.
3
I met my new boyfriend during my divorce.
4
We hit it off and have been together ever since.
5
He is a 44-year-old divorced man.
6
When I met him, he had been divorced for two years.
7
Well, I met his ex-wife, and she seemed to be an okay person.
8
What I found out three months into my relationship with him was that he was fooling around with his ex-wife again, who also at this time had a boyfriend of her own.
9
I figured that since I did not have a committed relationship with him, I had no place to say anything.
10
The problem is, it continued further into our relationship, up to the point when I found out I was pregnant.
11
At the same time, I found out that he and his ex-wife planned to go to his family reunion together.
12
Of course, before all of this, I drove by his house one night and saw her car parked outside his home.
13
The excuse I got after all of this was that they were considering getting back together.
14
I thought it was very funny that as soon as she met me, she found interest in him again.
15
I guess my issue is the fact that I'm now still in this relationship.
16
I have brought a child into this nonsense, and I hate the fact that he keeps in contact with her.
17
My boyfriend has taken responsibility for her son from a previous relationship.
18
His excuse for having so much contact with his ex-wife is because of that boy.
19
I know this is not true, but I have no real proof otherwise.
20
I have also dealt with him taking women to hotels, and my gut tells me it was her.
21
But he promises it was not her.
22
I have tried to get over all the cheating.
23
I know that she is very close to his family, and I also know that his family does not like me, because I stand up for myself.
24
I guess the bottom line is knowing how much contact his ex-wife has with him
25
and the fact that he knows that I can't stand her.
26
Am I in a weird relationship with the man that wants to have his cake and eat it too?
27
Or am I being paranoid and need to just trust him when he says he does not want her?
28
I have never had so much animosity towards two people in my life.
29
I do love this man, but I feel like I have put myself back in an unhealthy relationship with a man
30
that is trying to lie to me.
31
To be totally honest, now that I have his child, I even hate the fact that he helps her son.
32
She never has to ask for anything regarding that boy, but I have to constantly remind him when our son needs something.
33
He does it for the other boy without thinking, but my son is a second thought.
34
Even when I have said, look at your son, he is in dire need.
35
I was married to a cheating man and hooked up with another cheating man.
36
I wonder if it's just my bad choices in men.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
