I know. But several people on here did shame her. And that's always out of line.
I hope you're able to move past the hurt soon and be able look back on the good memories for what they are.
yeah i wont acknowledge them, she doesnt deserve that kind of talk, shes a good honest woman. thank you for saying that
I hear you buddy, I so wish I could offer you some kind of suggestion to help you through it, but from my experience "time" is the only cure. Stay strong and good luck!
thank you so much for your words, it means a lot that you can relate to me
Some people care a lot more about convincing themselves they're socially just than sympathizing.
I'm sorry this is such a punch to the gut. It's because you're still reeling from this and couldn't imagine anyone else, which makes it seem like she didn't care about you as much and got over it. That's not necessarily true. This could be her way of coping, and sex is easy to obtain for women, so it would be extra tempting to use it as a crutch.
i got really drunk and stupidly called her last night and she let it slip that she is doing it to cope. it helped me feel a little better, the way she used to talk about me it was so humiliating to find out shes been intimate again.
Unwise imo.
You're technically right but you're dealing with an emotional issues not a rational one.
He obviously still loves her. Just telling him it's none of his business doesn't stop the pain.
His feelings are valid. She's entitled to fuck who she wants but it's understandable if is still in love with her - The thought of her being with someone else can be difficult to take.
This isn't a case of him not understanding it's not his business, it's just how he feels. You cannot just immediately move on and let go.
He's not harassing her or anything, he's just saying that the thought of his ex fucking others is hard to take, and that doesn't make him a bad person.
thank you for this, i feel so manipulative for caring even though i shouldnt. its such a humiliating feeling
If you knew how flooded with dating- and sex-offers that a demographic gets, it wouldn't surprise you that they are able to move on so quickly. I blame men for this. Not the demographic in question.
There are multiple types of "love". One of which is the type: "I will jump in front of a bullet to protect this person. If I hear a noise in the night, I will walk downstairs and protect my special person. I will walk on the side of traffic incase I need to remove this person from harm's way".
And there is another type of love: "I want this person to protect me, provide for me, make me feel good, compete for me, prove themselves worthy of me".
Ask yourself which was the type of love you were giving and which you were receiving. That's just how biology works. Yet another reason why this earth and life suck.
you know this is a really heavy comment on my soul you just made and i mean that in a good way. this helped me shift my perspective a little.
I was an AWFUL boyfriend to her, all of this is my fault. but i do think i was recieving the second type and giving the first. but then why was i so unfaithful? i dont understand myself. i dont know. i feel like im looking for an out to make myself feel better. really she did nothing horribly wrong. i hate myself
