TLDR - Woman is mad that her ex husband is in a new relationship after only a year of being divorced.

>I was the one who had an emotional affair, which led to our divorce. But that came after [foid excuses]

So we open up with her already admitting she's a cheater. Great.

>being shown that he will drop everything for a friend who only calls when he needs something, but I have to wait until he has time and energy.

Oh, she's also an incessant energy vampire whom he desperately tries to seek escape from at the soonest opportunity, as well. Home life must be wonderful.

>Why is it so stereotypical? Why can't men take time to be alone? Why do they have to jump into the next relationship?

Because he already had your replacement picked out; probably once he found out about the cheating YOU did. Blaming your partner for being prepared. Wild.

>I knew he would find someone before me because he can't stand up to his negative self-talk. He needs that constant reassurance that he's not as bad as he tells himself he is. Which is so stupid because he is such a good person.

If you truly believe all this, .why did you never tell him he was a good person?

9.5/10 rage bait, would withdraw from society into a log cabin again

>OMG why do men expect all this free emotional labor from us? Why can't they realize they need other friends they can talk to and we aren't their second mommies?

>OMG they're emotionally cheating on us with their friends and coworkers what selfish pigs.

This could be an awesome AITH story if changed a bit (adding a lashing out after meeting up with him again or towards a friend over him).

Her cheating was "emotional cheating" (as she describes it). What you describe would just be emotional cheating in response. Surely having a replacement picked out is emotional cheating, too.
