Well here are my :cents:

My first, the man all of you have heard me talk about hundreds of times, he was 99.99% wrong for me. Man did I hang on to that .01%. The only way I was able to "get over him" (which I wonder if I actually did), was to completely cut off conection with him. That worked till i really needed him agian. When I needed him again for moral support with something that happened that was absolutely horrible, he was there. After we talked for awhile I hung up and realized I would always need/want him in my life. I have to keep thinking about why we don't work together and focus on that. When you are with someone and you tell yourself, "It's ok for him to cheat on me as long as he comes home to me..." you are in a bad relationship. That is what I was saying to myself all the time. Being with him was priority being able to call him mine.

We some how have become pretty cool friends. He is really smart and I call him and ask for advice all the time. Sometimes I am lucky enough to meet up with him and he even drove to Columbus to see me once, something he said he would never do while we were "together."

I wasn't able to completely cut him off but I was able to become pretty cool friends with him. I really hope you can do the same. My personal advice would be take some time to get to know this new guy, make yourself happy, and then see if you can help the ex. He needs people right now as well, especially being diagnosed with this scary disease.
