I thought the craziness was over...HOLY CRAP and question

Today I was at work and reception called me with a girls name I did not know.  I figured it was someones support staff so I felt a gut feeling to take it.  This is how the convo went:

Her: "You dont know me and this is going to be a really weird call but I was engaged to [EXH name]until last week.  We called off the engagement bc hes crazy doing cocaine gambling, etc."

Me: um what? OK im still trying to process this.

She starts telling me they met last FEBRUARY and she lived on his dads yacht with him off and on since March.  They got engaged in July!  He was gone a ton at the end of our marriage on business trips and I find out he was living with her on the boat.  I mean my mind was blown!  I thought it couldnt get any crazier.  Thanking my lucky stars tonight! 

 My question is: do I tell my boyfriend?  Ive been with him 6 months and the whole thing just feels so drama filled and nuts.  I dont even want to be associated with it but I feel like I need to be really open..

  • Why wouldn't you tell him? And why did this woman call you? What does she expect you to do with this information?
    I agree with everything that muddled said. You should listen to her. -ESDReturns
  • I just dont want him to feel like Im still involved at all, care about him, etc.  I feel nothing for him but I honestly feel bad for this girl.  The verbal abuse sounds identical.  She told me she called me bc he started seeing his true colors and he told her I was crazy and she knew that prob wasnt true. 

     She feels really alone and physically threatened (he hit her I guess in a cocaine rage).  I told her to move out of the house immediately and not tell him where she lives.  I feel terrible but she did not know he had even been married until 6 weeks into their relationship.  The whole thing is just beyond weird

  • I don't think you owe him any kind of explanation, but I also don't think it's something you need to "hide" if you want to tell him about it.  Just do what you're comfortable with.
