Zaara Wants Revenge On Her Cheating School Friend

Zaara asks:
I met my school friend after 12 years and it was instant attraction for both of us. After dating him for 4 years, I found out he has been in another relationship for the past 10 years.
He is scheduled to get married and I'm jealous, hurting and so angry! He says he still loves me and wants to continue this relationship, which I'm against.
But I want to hurt him. I want to let his fiance know that he has been cheating on her for the past 4 years, that I had to go through the pain of an abortion because he wasn't 'ready to be a father". Please help!
He really wasn’t worth all of that anguish was he? What a good job you did have an abortion though, because really, to be free of any ties to this guy has to be a good thing.
It’s not uncommon for people to feel a spark with an old school friend - you meet up years later and see how each other has matured, has become more confident etc., and wham bam, you can’t help yourselves.
But this guy is taking it too far - you’re absolutely right to deny him the best of both worlds. Just try to let go of the desire for revenge. It’s natural to want to hurt him and to want to help this other woman see what she’s getting, but my advice is to stay out of it, keep a clean conscience and just get on with your own life.
He isn’t adding anything positive to your life at all, he’s just negative energy, draining your own confidence. You will be jealous, angry and hurting - anyone would be. But focus on what you stand to gain by getting him out of your life.
It will be you who’s choosing to part for good, so you should take confidence from that. He’s not dumping you. He’s just weak and wanted everything he could get.
He probably doesn’t want to get married to this girl but that’s not your problem. He’s going through with it for some reason, so best leave him to make his own mistakes.

You’re wasting your time. He’s a love rat and the only thing that will ensure you’re out of his clutches for good is to cut all contact.
Don’t let him near you or give him any way of contacting you. It’s his loss. Definitely not yours. He’ll only see revenge as a sign that you’re so obsessed with him that you had to get his attention some how.
That would be really degrading, so please don’t do that. Don’t go there. If your motivation is to help this girl, then tell her - but as you say, it’s jealousy, anger and hurt talking here.
Maybe she already knows and has chosen to ignore it. Just stay out of his life altogether.
