Good morning.
My boyfriend of 2.5 years, whom I love
very much, broke up with me on monday
because he's found a new woman. I am
having a hard time dealing with this
rejection and betrayal. I don't know if
I can move on. People are telling me
that every day will get easier but it's
actually getting harder. I just want him
back. I know that it's not going to
happen though and I have to move on. I
just can't. Anyone have any advice for
me?

Hi
he is the loser. Don't think too much
about him. I know it hurts but believe me
with the time u will cope with it. It is
good that it happened now before married
and having babies. You can not trust a
man like that.
Give your self a break. Don't involve in
new love relation before u heeled from the
first one that might affect your new one.
Life is full of good people. You will
find a new love who will share love and
life with u. Just know whom to chose.
This time u will be right in your choice,
because u got the lesson from the first
relation.
Give your self enough time to decide
properly.
My heart is with you

a Little Advice Posted: 06-24-05 23:56pm
My husband of 14 years left me and 2 kids
for another woman. We are currently going
thru a divorce. This happened nearly 3
months ago. I never seen it coming. I
was devastated! I felt as if I couldn't
go on without him. I still have days like
that. It is hard, but not quite as hard
as it was in the beginning. I loved him
so much, and still do. But, I realize
that I have to be strong. Being strong to
me is living one day at a time.
Realizing that worse things could happen
in life . Everything happens for a
reason.....You dont know the reason right
now.......But in time you will. Just get
up every day and live your life. Make
yourself do things. I had to make myself
get outta bed. My children of course
keep me going. But even without
children, you must realize that it is not
the end of the world. You do not deserve
a cheater. It does get harder before it
gets better. But, I promise you it will
get better and you will get thru this.I
pray to god every day for strength. I
know you must feel hurt, sad, angry, and
most of all, alone. But you are not
alone. Good luck.

Hello. I hope you are doing better. I
think it's good that you didn't marry this
guy and then find out he didn't want to be
married to you. I know because my
husband married me and left after two
months of marriage. He decided he wanted
to go back to his ex-wife. We have a
child together and he had children with
his ex. It's the worst kind of pain to
have your husband leave you and know that
his ex told him to divorce you and he's
weak-minded enough to leave. He's been
gone 9 months now and he's called once
after he was gone three weeks, saying to
be "gentle with me." :roll:
what's helped me is going to church, which
I was doing before, but I made sure I
didn't stop. Keeping busy helps, just
living life and as time goes on the pain
doesn't hurt as much. No one can tell
you to get over him. It's not that easy.
That is a process that you do on your
own in your own timing. Best wishes....

Your boyfriend is a major loser and in the
end you will be come out the better
person. Just remember this what comes
around goes around and he will get his
payback.

I am sorry for what you are going through.
Last month, my fiance and I broke up for
the same thing. He left me after 2 yrs
for another woman. He didn't tell me, I
found out on my own. We were engaged for
1 yr and lived with each other almost a
month after we started dating. I feel for
him instantly. I still love him and
always will. About a week after he left,
I found out she was pregnant. Yet another
thing that he didn't tell me, she did! It
was awful. We were looking into getting a
house and I was going to get off the pill
this month so that we could start trying.
My heart is still broke. I never felt
pain like this. I know what you are going
through, especially with everyone always
telling you that he is a looser and that
all you need it "time". I hate that
word!!! But, that is what is needed.
About 2 weeks ago, he called me and wanted
to get back together. He came over to my
apartment, we talked, made up, did all of
that stuff you do when you make up. He
spent the night, left the next morning,
telling me that he loved me and would call
me later....And never did. I have no way
of getting a hold of him, cause the girl
he was seeing lives in ohio and I am in
pittsburgh, pa. Our cell phones are
turned off because he didn't pay the bill.
No one can believe that I even let him
back into my heart after what he did, but
I wanted to give him one more chance, and
look what he does. I know now that I
could never have trusted him. I would of
kept wondering where he was all the time,
who is with, is he really working when he
says he is. There would of been too much
doubt. When the trust is gone, you have
nothing but love. I hope that you are ok.
If you need anything, or just want to
chat, e-mail me and I will give you my im
info. Hope that you are ok. I know the
pain hurts!! I am still hurting. But, I
am here if you need a friend! Take care!

She Told Me This Guy Is Her "future". Posted: 08-28-05 08:16am
This last message feels so similar. I
share the same pain and bad feelings.
My partner & I have two little girls.
She's played away from home before and
last november we split.
No matter how hard I tried, not one single
day passed without thoughts of her going
through my mind.
The anger had stopped and I seemed to be
picking up the pieces and rebuilding my
life.
Even so I still had this emptiness. Two
months ago it was fathers days and my
little girls were with me.
They had been bought a bottle of wine to
give to me for fathers days. Like a fool,
while thanking my ex for her present I
invited her round to share it with me.
This was on the proviso that she would be
serious, no more games or playing around
and that I would end it again if she did.
She agreed and seemed so sincere.
In the last two months things seemed ok..
We all seemed like a family again, she
wrote little love notes, hugged me when I
came home from work, told me over and over
how much she loved me and of course, my
feeling of love for her were soon as
strong as ever.
We would go shopping and I would by her
clothes, gifts and presents. I tried very
hard to be caring and understanding.
She told me how nice it was that I was
being this way. Three weeks ago I had to
work long hours. She popped round her
parents, asking if i'd mind if she stayed
over a couple of nights.
When we next met she said she was not sure
if this was what she wanted.
It was just like a re-enactment of a
horrible play.
I had an email the following day. She
wrote:-
what I was trying to tell you was that all
these years I have wanted so much to be
with you, which has been misinterpreted as
me wanting your assets instead of you.
Over time the little chips have been
cutting away and now I don't know if I can
get the feelings back to the intensity
they once were, repair the damage. My
backoff seems to make you closer towards
me and I think about the impact of that
for the future.
I didn't want to end things but to take
the opportunity to tell you, honestly, how
I was feeling. A relationship doesn't
just fix itself overnight, although it
seems that it somehow has for you, because
you sense
that i'm not after commitment from you and
that for once you feel able to let down
your barriers with me.
The last thing I wanted to do was hurt the
kids either, i'm worried about that very
much.
I just wanted you to understand my
feelings. Your reaction confirms that I
cannot speak honestly as its not what you
want to hear, its 100% or nothing.
There is no middle ground with you and
middle ground is what a relationship like
ours needs right now.
You're now going to put up a brickwall and
shut the door to me completely as you are
feeling hurt and upset and that upsets me
greatly. I understand that you don't want
to waste time with me if i'm not going to
be a long term investment.
I didn't want a situation of you taking me
on holiday, paying for it and then
throwing it in my face if and when it
falls apart.
******************************************
***************************************
true to my word I broke it off. Since
then our little 9year old daughter has
called me ever day. Last week my
daughters stayed with me. That was when
the eldest told me how she watched her
mummy and grandma put a profile on
datingdriect and how my x posed while
grandma took the picture and that mummy
had now met a man called peter.
She went on to tell me how she was too
scarred to tell me before in case it broke
the family up again.
She cried and cried telling me she didn't
want him to be her daddy and why can't we
be a real family like all of her
friends.
I tried and tried to be a good dad, but
it's not easy after going back and
trusting her again and again. I've lost
count how many "peter's" there have been
in the past 10years and how many times,
when these relationship fail, I take her
back.
Over the years I have grown much, much
stronger and cuss myself for repeatedly
inflicting this pain on myself. But i'm
back here again.
I have a good job, nice home and just
emptiness. Reading, once again, all about
how to get over pain, distress, depression
and relationship break-up.
The thought of her being with this other
man warring the clothes i'd bought made me
feel physically sick.
I have spoken to her over the telephone
and put a very convincing face on
everything, pretending I don't care.
She told me this guy is her "future".
She will never know the pain she causes
every time she does this. Or the damage
and distress "we" inflict on out two
little girls with this endless make and
break-up routine.
But it's my fault for allowing her too..
I even asked for the clothes back. Guess
I will have a little pleasure selling them
on ebay.
I much rather show her a picture of a drop
dead gorgeous woman warring them. But
that's just my pain.
A long reply.. But it helps just to
share.

Similar Experience Posted: 05-20-06 18:00pm
I myself had a very.... Stressful
situation most recently. I feel now that
the last 4 years of my life have been an
utter waste. I am a 19 year old male.
For 3 years of my life I dated this girl.
After the first year we broke up because
she cheated on me. After she broke up
with me she started dating a coke abusing,
ex convict who would be soon going back to
jail. After a few months she came
crawling back to me and I accepted her...
A long time went by and the thoughts of
everything that had happened weighed
heavily on my mind. About 2 months ago I
got an apartment with this girl. She also
being 19 had a very controlled life by her
parents. Suddenly she was just
dissapearing for days at a time. After
not seeing her for 2 weeks I finally come
home and shes having sex with this first
ex-con in my bed. I snapped. The next
day I came home and she was having sex
with an entirely different guy and now her
plan was to muscle me out of the place I
had been living and payed my half of.
This guy brought over his dog and some
other people and I was outside and called
the cops. Needless to say the cops
arrived but when they talked to her she
told the cops that I had been cutting
myself (which I did do because I was so
depressed I wanted to die and I slit my
wrist a few stitches later i'm still alive
and breathing) the cops then proceeded to
handcuff me for the first time in my life
and take me to the local large hospital
where I was placed in a holding room then
moved to the temporary psyche unit. I
spent 14 hours (from 1 in the morning till
1 in the afternoon the next day) in that
place because of her.... Now I had to
move back in with my parents and I miss
who she used to be and all the good times
we had... She said she did it because she
was unhappy with me because I wasn't man
enough because even though I did
everything for her I was never man
enough....... I hate the standards of my
life... Anyway I may write more later
because I go to go... Heh peace.

Even when you're on another thread,
talking to someone else, about something
i've made no comment on, you still can't
help but talk about me. Which means you
must be thinking about me.
Face it woman, i'm in your head.

He is a loser but unless you have been in
that sitiuation most people dont
understand, things will get easier right
now you probally feel hopeless though and
that is normal.
With life comes good and bad, unfortunatly
when you become a part of someone and put
so much into them/vice versa its hard to
forget but a great learning expierence for
you. Just take this into consideration
karma is a health forum and things usually
come back threefold!!!
All I can say is your ex will never be
happy my reasoning is he never tried to
keep the relationship together, therefore
resulting in the same bs in every
relationship not to long down the road he
will find somone else. Him unlike you
will never expierence complete happiness
with one person instead he will hide
happiness by sleeping with multiple woman
saying that is happiness, when in return
waking up by the same person is.
A relationship that goes through the good
and worst is usually the one to survive, I
have gone through so many fight and yet I
am still with the same man that I have
been with for almost 5 year. You will
find someone regardless of what people say
but remeber you are better than your ex
you already put one foot forward by
posting this message!!
Hugz your way darls, keep your head on
straight and you will make it!!

some helpful tips Posted: 07-26-08 17:42pm
I have been in a same situation, my
husband left me for another woman. After a
while he returned back and wanted to
continue relationship. I was at first
happy that he returned, but then memories
of his betrayal started to return
unexpectedly. I felt anger towards him and
did not know what to do about my feelings.
Then I found one site where they are
discussing how to deal with anger,
frustration and insecurity in a
relationship or after breakup. I found
that site to be very helpful, I have
always been a bit insecure in my
relationship (even before cheating took
place) and was glad to learn new ways of
controlling my feelings if I get
"insecurity attack".
Good luck!!

Hi Posted: 08-26-08 22:14pm
He is a loser, you seem like a very nice
girl, I know it's hard, but what you must
do is this :
- burn every memory of him.
- delete him from your mobile
- DON'T TALK TO HIM (very important) stay
away from him
- Do exercises, running jogging,
etc...this will help relive the stress
- listen to Rock songs....but not any
romantic sad songs...you need to listen to
songs that get your adrenaline going...
- cry from time to time...it will help.
- You're not a loser like him are you? -
no, you are not, because you wouldn't be
like him...so therefore...your dream man
is still out there, believe me...
- and finally, when you're over him, give
me a call. (I'm kidding, it was a
joke...to regain some happiness)
- AND most importantly...talk to friends
about it and family but not all the time
or will be just annoying.
