It sounds like he is not a very nice person. It may not have seemed that way during your relationship and I'm sure you have really nice memories of the two of you, and I bet you didn't really have anything bad to say about him until after your break up. It's clear he's trying to get under your skin and he's succeeding. Obviously it would be hard not to let it, so don't let that part get you down. It's okay to cry about it and get it out of your system.

Stop talking to him. Change your phone number, delete him from Facebook (if applicable), and just cut him out of your life. It's not doing either of you any good to keep in contact with each other and it will save you a lot of tears. He's clearly not the same person you once knew and you're not receiving anything positive by keeping some sort of relationship. No one deserves to be called the names you were, especially by someone you love(d). He's intentionally trying to hurt you, which makes his actions much more vicious and inexcusable. Don't let him do that to you.

we talk all the time, and she tells me she thinks her and her fiance have an expiration date, but she owes it to her son to try. she did tell me the minute they call it quits, if they do, she wants to see what i can bring to the table.

I dated the same guy for 5.5 years and in the end, I just felt like it wasn't meant to be anymore. We split and he immediately got a new girlfriend, so I just started doing my own thing. I met another guy and fell so hard for him, but he had been burned and didn't want a girlfriend anytime soon. He definitely wasn't lying because I'm pretty sure he is still single now and this all happened back in 2008. After that didn't work out, I just decided to focus on myself and school and enjoy life.

It was my first year as a declared accounting major and I started taking my upper level classes. In one class, there was a group project where the teacher assigned the members. The group worked pretty well together and everyone was really nice. One day, our second project together was due when my computer decided to take a shit and I lost my part. I called one of my group members frantically because I thought he was the only one who would help. He came to pick me up so we could work on it and I thought it was really nice that he stepped up like that (obviously there is self interest because his grade was on the line, too, though ). As we were working, we got to talking and had a lot in common. We eventually started hanging out more and more and now we've been dating over a year.

I'm a firm believer in this quote, "good things fall apart so better things can fall together." It may not happen right away, but everything happens for a reason. I didn't date anyone for a year and a half after my relationship ended and definitely had my heart broken in between, but it only has made me a better person. The time away allowed me to know what I wanted for myself and at least gave me somewhat of an idea of what I wanted to do with my life. I'm just really happy right now and I owe a lot of it to just getting my own shit straight and focusing on myself.

I know it's cliche, but there are plenty of fish in the sea. The great thing, too, is that you are so young and have so much of your life in front of you. After a break up, sometimes you just feel any relationship would be better than none. It's definitely not true. Focus on making yourself a better person (in your own eyes, not someone else's) and put yourself first. Do things that make you happy, pick a goal to work on, volunteer, or a combination or whatever. I feel that if you can show people that you can take care of yourself, then it shows you can definitely take care of them. That's an admirable quality.

I know it sounds annoying to have people sitting here telling you, "it's just one girl" or "you're young, don't worry" or whatever, but we have felt just as you have and had people tell us the same thing. It is true, as much as we don't want to admit that we didn't think so at the time. Not to mention, Valentine's Day just seems to shove everything in your face. Honestly, on the Valentine's Day I was single, I was out job hunting because I found out I was laid off just a couple days before. I went to Red Lobster to apply not really thinking about what day it was, only to see it slammed packed with a 3 hour wait for what seemed to be a countless number of couples waiting to eat. It was a little depressing, not going to lie, but it is what it is and I didn't let it bring me down that day.

Okay, I've said a lot. PM me if you ever need to rant or anything. I love listening.

You want her because you can't have her, and you're not interested in the other girls because they want you.

Another failure was letting love blind me. When it came to the point that I should have gotten out of relationships, I let my penis make decisions for me and that was the wrong thing to do. Sometimes it just isn't worth pursuing any further. My ex and I split up due to the fact that we were just incompatible. We had never fought, never got mad at each other, we just realized that it wasn't meant to be. It was then that I realized the importance of that ability.

Hmmm... maybe. I've never really been that sort of guy, but it's definitely possible. Though I liked her for a little while before she started dating her ex a long time ago, too, so I don't think so.

I'm sure there are several reasons why you're attracted to her, but I think it's human nature to desire things that you can't have/are hard to get. I think that's why a lot of people have that "Why are the good ones always unvailable?" mindset.

No need for violence, just tell her she's got a game misconduct and show her the door.

As I said in the GDT, the call on Rivet was horseshit. The Bruins player was holding onto Rivet's stick like it was the last fucking raft on the Titanic.

the best ones aren't always taken because I'm still available


im kidding of course.

lol I resisted the urge to post something like this earlier.

I too struggled with this conundrum, however I then realized that I'm pretty much impossible to date due to being in a committed relationship with myself.

I told my friend that I would be there for him if he wanted to talk about any problems, or if he needed advice or anything like that (Because I have more experience with relationships than he does). I figured I would swallow my own feelings and be a friend. Aaand he totally blew me off. He told me that him and her are perfect, and that he won't have problems like me and my old GF had. Awesome...

And you know what else? I'm so fucking sick of bullshit. My old GF is bullshitting me. Again. Motherfucking AGAIN. God, am I sick of it... We sort of made up a few weeks ago. I manned up and went to her and apologized for a few things, and she apologized for a few things. It was the first time we'd spoken civilly to each other in two months. We agreed that we were both good with each other. I thought it was all behind us. And now she's fucking bullshitting me again! Making up things that I said, and telling me things that my friends have said about me which aren't true (They didn't say them, and neither did I). Then she tells me that me and her are friends, and she just wants me to be happy. What the hell??

Fucking women, who needs them?! Nothing but trouble they are! Always playing games with our emotions! They treat us like puppies, and their hearts are filled with betrayal and trickery! I mean sure the smell great, and their skin is soft and silky. And yeah they look irresistible sometimes, unless the bitch put on her WV jogging pants, then you know she's not interested in you. Even though I always thought she still looked kind of hot in them. Stupid women.
