Hi Guys,

This is quite a long story, so please bear with me I really need advice.

Ok, I was on a night out with friends and as the night was ending I turned to my right and made eye contact with this beautiful looking girl. I never usually approach girls but this time I did as she smiled at me and made me feel at ease. The conversation we had was great and we really clicked, we never kissed that night but she asked for my number and she did indeed text me.

I was so happy she did and texting between us continued. I then bumped into her the next week in the same place and we kissed. Got on great again, she said she never usually goes with any random guy and usually knows them for a while 1st. I then text her drunk and told her how much I liked her, everything just seemd great and she made out she felt the same.

As time went on she told me on many occasions how much she liked me but I hardly ever seen her due to her work, as she worked evenings and I worked days.

She basically had mon,tue and sat off but said she only really had sat to have a night out with friends. She is turning 21 and me 27 so I was wary of the age gap but thought it wouldn't be an issue.

The relationship she was in before she never saw her frinds as her ex wouldn't let her so she felt trapped. I found myself never getting to see her, if I did it would be once every 1-2 weeks. This was getting to me and I moaned a little about how I never saw her. She then said She wanted things more casual and not put a time scale on when we would nxt see each other, but still wanted to see me. So I agreed but was getting confused with her txting saying she missed me or phoning me all the time but hardly ever arranging to see me.

One time I was on the phone to her and her 2nd ex text her and she went all weir don the phone and said she has to go. All I got was a message saying "im so sorry", I then spoke to her and she made it clear she was over her ex. She was honest and told me that when she met her recent ex she cheated on him with her 1st long term boyfriend as she still loved him and basically missed him when with someone else. This worried me but I thought its nothing to do with me I just need to show her I'm better.
Over time I was getting tired of not getting to see her and called it off, she wanted to sort things and we did. It continued as usual I called it off aagain but I bumped into her on a night out and we kissed. She would speak to me saying she felt there was no chemistry between us but gets on great with me and feels so relaxed. She would always say she had no time cause of work but to me she had three days where I could have seen her at som point. When we kissed after me calling it off she text me saying things like "i dont usually kiss my pals" and "ur getting me to like u again, not good". I just took this as her playing hard to get and we continued to meet up whenever she liked.

A few weeks ago I went round to her house and we go quite close and everything seemed great, I was so happy. She then anted to go out with me that week and we did. The night was going great then she disappeared to the toilet in a nightclub for overy 20mins. She then came out and 10 minutes later wanted to go home, she left the taxi and all she could say was "im so sorry" I'm obviously confused again. She said she was just drunk and felt ill, so I let it be.

The final straw came when we were on the phone I shouted and acted silly about her not making any effort to see me and accusing her of daft thing, I was just really hurt and said things out of character. Within that week she called me and said it was finished and she just wanted to be with her friends and seen a side to me that reminds her of her possesive ex, and also there was no connection between us.

She wanted to stay friends and I agreed but I was just hoping things would change. She then text me drunk one night making out she still liked me bu the next day aplogised and hoped we hadn't ruine our friendship. I decided I couldn't be friends as its too hurtful for me. My problem is I am totally confused as to whether I was liked and should I have stayed friends in the hope that we would meet up again get together again.

Im really hurting and have taken this personally, she asked me if I was still coming to her birthday party and said I couldn't and I haven't heard from her since, I can't stop thinking about her, can't sleep right and I'm gutted. My friends tell me she just didn't want a relationship and when she seen it getting serious she called it a day.

Should I be friends with her and accept she just wasn't ready??

How do I get over this feeling of rejection and not feeling good enough??

I feel I blame myself for shouting cause of the way things were and not creating that chemistry she was wanting.

Sorry for the long story but any advice would be greatly appreciated

In all honesty this is a mixed up affair. Its time to get yourself out of it. Be thankful you didn't have a fully fledged relationship or it would have been allot harder. Seems like she has allot of issues she needs to work out herself, this may or may not have to do with her ex's.

Leave her alone, do not be her friend and work on yourself. Do not contact her, block her mobile no, email etc so she does not have any way of contacting you. Join the gym if you haven't, go out with your friends and have a great time. Give it a bit of time and you'll be fine :)

Hi Jiser,

Thanks for the advice, I don't know what's up with me but I just feel myself getting jealous at the fact that she is out with her friends and not even bothering about me and getting all the attention from guys, you know!!

Myself esteem isn't great and this I guess makes me struggle to move on. I have joined the gym so that's a start. I used to get plenty of attention from women, but myself esteem has hit the rocks, I'm suffering from hair loss and it really does affect my confidence on the way I look.

I just don't know why I wish she would contact me again if she is like this.

You wanted more than she was willing to give so now you have to regroup and work on your own issues so next time you can slow down and enjoy getting to know someone. You moved to fast and became to into this female who was not ready.

I agree, I did move too fast, that's why I'm kicking myself for this. I wish I had just went slower. That's why I was thinking maybe stay friends and maybe one day it would pick up.

I feel as if she has made sense and I am to blame, if I wasn't so full on she would still want to see me??

Sorry didn't quote u, as you can see I'm new to this lol

Your self-esteem will always take abit of a beating in situations like yours. However you can choose how it effects you. Chuck that ego out the door and forget what people think of you. Who cares?

Go down the gym, pump the weights hard! Get some protein in you, get a decent workout going. You'll look great for the summer. Go out more and meet people.

Du honestly think that being friends with this girl is the wrong idea, I feel as though I'm to blame for acting too full on or serious by wanting to see her more?

From what you wrote, she seems confused about what she wants. So leave her alone, do not be friends with her. Do not try to over analyze things. Get some sort of self belief back and do not contact her.

Not saying you can't give things a try again, such as being friends or even more, but in the mean time you have to work on yourself. After several months, maybe more you will be able to look more clearly upon your situation.

You are correct in what your saying, its just really hard letting go of something you wanted, but I will not contact her cause it will only be to make her happy and I will continually hope there is more.

The hardest thing to swallow will be seeing her with someone else

Yes its going to be hard. But you can do it! The key is to keep yourself busy and your mind occupied.

That's going to be hard, yes of course. So basically do not go where you will see her. This is why its important to not go near the 'grape vine' and to abide by NC.

Yes your right and you will handle it by accepting that you don't have a relationship with her. She does as she please and so do you. Its all part of moving forward.

We stay in different areas so I wouldn't see her often. I just keep feeling I am to blame for this. She said there were things she didn't like about me. I admit I do have one or two faults. The week before we ended I shouted down the phone at her accusing her of nonsense, and how frustrated I was at her lack of effort to see me. She said she also didn't like the way I would ask some questions over and over again, which is my insecure side which I hate. I wish I could prove to her I'm not like this, she said these actions were like that of her ex and that's a road she doesn't want to go down again.

Am I wrong in saying I should respect her wishes to be friends as I blame myself or do you think I have reason to act the way I did?

We all have our ways, so what? Stop feeling guilty, and get your life together, and learn from the experience. If you made a mistake, acknowledge it, and file it away, and don't repeat it, since now you know better. Until you get healthy and less emotional about her, then being friends is out of the question, leave her alone for now, and heal.

I was out last night with some friends and I seen her friends, but she wasn't there. Obviously I'm thinking about her, I don't know if it's a bad idea to turn up with another woman and let her see what she is missing. I know this isn't good on the other person but she just wants a casual thing anyway.

I want to see her look over and get jealous, trouble is this could hurt more if she doesn't even bother.

Playing games with others feelings is not recommended. It is petty small and short sighted. More than likely it can come back to bite you in the azz. Better to being enjoying yourself and getting over her.

Playing this game is a dangerous move and like tal said could end up backfiring on you.

Hi there.
If she has had possesive boyf in the past she will be standing back waiting for it to happen again and maybe why she kept her distance.
You have to start loving yourself before you can start loving someone else or you will always be looking at things negativly.
Go out and have fun enjoy yourself have some time for you and to figure what you want out of life.
Its hard to let go of something that you felt was close to you in your heart and will take time but isn't no use in sitting on you own and keep going over it will only drive you mad.
If you see her out be yourself say hi will be hard but at least you know that you isn't the same as the others if she can see that you isn't being of with her and giving her that preasure maybe things will build up again in time.
But make sure you do your own thing and your not always waiting for that next moment to see her. Give her the space she is looking for and let her come to you that way you know that it is something that she wants and not what you have pushed on her.
At 21 women are all for having a good time going out having a laugh spending time with friends and doing the girly things togeather. She don't want to feel preasured speshialy if that's how she has felt in the past.
Like I say let her come to you if that's what she wants but don't build hopes up as you never know what's round the corner.

I hope my waffling helps you think about it in different ways always best to cover things from every angle and choose yourself what road you want to take.

Yeah I know everything you say makes sense. At that age I felt the same and I can uderstand wanting to be with friends. The bit I'm struggling with is she wanted to stay friends and not be in a relationship. The question I continually go over in my head is Should I be friends because I understand her situaion and her views at this time and she wants to have fun or is the no contact rule the best. I keep thinking she isn't really done anything wrong so why should I not be friends, I was totally cool with being casual with her but as soon as I acted like an arse I got chucked. I regret so much for the way I showed my frustration and it would not happen again.

I think to myself if I stay friends I am keeping my options open but still getting on with other things in life.

IF I CUT ALL CONTACT THERE WILL BE NO HOPE??

Well I would wait a month or two, give you time to think before you start chatting again. I would keep it light - maybe over msn or something! In the mean time move on.

Yeah, see what you mean, its at an awkward moment just now, she goes on holiday this week then its her birthday party nxt week, considered sending a messgae to say have a good time. Guess I'm just a little scared of leaving no contact too long then she feels uncomfortable after so long and wonders why I decide to text now

So if it's a friendship you can deal with then you don't have a problem, but if you still have feelings and are looking to get the relationship back by hanging around and being nice then you should leave her alone until those emotions are under better control. Ask yourself, how will you feel if she starts to date someone else? If it bothers you then go with no contact. If not have fun. Holding on just because you think there is hope for a relationship is not healthy.

Yeah if she is with someone else that will really hurt big time and id probably take it personally. No contact may mean that she forgets about me though and does meet someone. I understand no contact helps the healing but it will help her too, and I know her friends will be advising her she has done the right thing.

I'm shocked she hasn't contacted me in nearly 2weeks even though it was me who said I would talk to her if I seen her out and about but we should not text or call. I guess she has forgotten about me or isn't that bothered.

Best not speculate over something you don't know. 21 year old females are so caught up with figuring themselves and their lives out, that they can be very confusing. I think this is more the case than anything you've done. Your at different places as far as maturity, and stability goes, and all she wants is to have a great time and run a round and see as much as she can and do as much as she can. You just have to let her, and accept that is how it goes. You knew this from the beginning, but chose to pass it over. I think a much more mature and uncomplicated female would be a lot better for you, as its less drama and confusion. The younger ones are wild and only time can tame them.

Listen to tal buddy, that response above is 100% accurate in my opinion.

I agree 100% as well which I must admit makes me see things a little clearer, its just the being friends thing I'm usure of what to do, I keep chopping and changing my mind

I think this kind of thing teaches us 27 year olds to go for woman slightly older who are as tal suggests, tamed...

So much growing happens between 18 and 25 (in my opinion)

I agree 100% as well which i must admit makes me see things a little clearer, its just the being friends thing im usure of what to do, i keep chopping and changing my mind

Probably best to move on from this one...

You are too old for her and better you find this out now than 3 years down the line when your feelings are much deeper. You are at different maturity levels...

She is young and is having fun being young. She probably isn't interested in anything too serious.

Well the latest situation is I've got a date tonight, I know this girl through friends and thought why not?

Im feeling a little guilty though for sort of using her when my mind is still on the previous girl. I feel I'm kicking myself for acting too nice with the previous one, I acted out of character as if I wasn't myself. I made myself too available, she doesn't know the real me and that's why I feel like I need to prove that to her. She likes a challenge and I didn't give that, I usually do with other girls and it worked.

Fair enough I can date other people but I'm wanting to prove to the last one that I am good enough for what she looks in a man. She said she hates a guy being nice all the time and thts just not me yet I acted like that, thinking she would like it.

Its her birthday today I feel like texting just to wish her a nice birthday. I know I've said about no contact and I have stuck by it, its been 3 weeks, but I'm thinking if I just text that then that maybe appreciated by her

Don't expect anything in return. Honestly I wouldn't bother, but that's just me.

Don't expect anything in return. Honestly I wouldn't bother, but thats just me.


Im not expecting anything, honestly. I just thought it's the nice thing to do but on the negative side is this not showing I've been thinking of her and will give her an ego boost?

I don't want her to feel she can still have me or think I still miss her inm anyway or want to be with her

Then leave it alone, as you have no idea of her mindset. Forget her and do what's right for you. Put you first. She has plenty of friends to tell her happy birthday. This is a non issue.

I felt I was doing it for me, by showing I'm thoughtful, but I don't know if I'm just doing it as an excuse to make contact, it would pobably be making her feel better as well i.e. she did nothing wrong as he still wants to text you know?

but I don't know if I'm just doing it as an excuse to make contact,
Be honest with yourself, and stop justifying your intentions.

Yeah I agree, I didn't contact her yesterday and I'm glad I didn't. This weekend is going to be tough though, its her 21st birthday party and she will be going to a nightclub which I go to. I don't know whether to avoid it or not. There is also a guy going to her party whom I thought she kind of liked, I know I'm thinking of the worst case scenario but I just think of them together and I'm in the club. Just wish this week was over with to be honest.

I certainly won't contact her though, it will do me no good anyway.

You can always plan your own fun for the weekend, and then time will just fly by, and before you know it the weekend will be over.

Well go to a different night club :P

Well go to a different night club :P

Think I'm going to have to mate, It will just be on my mind all night I know it will. Problem is don't think any of my mates are going out this weekend so its going to be one with too much time on my hands

Go join a gym, go try some new hobbies. I met my ex via someone who knew someone I met at a hobby, in fact I met most of my friends through a hobby or from old part time jobs. So get out there and don't mope about at home and whatever you do don't go where miss.ex is. Ignorance is bliss.

Ive been going to the gym and it does help. Thing is I know she is still pyhsically attracted to me, it would be good to go and her to see me talking to other girls but then again it could backfire as she may not even bother and I'm left feeling like an idiot.

You really must stop that line of thinking. Obviously her physical attraction to you means nothing, and making her jealous is a waste of time. Go fishing, the peace and quiet is awesome and the outdoors will do you good.

What talaniman is saying is get yourself a life and stop thinking about her - I suggest you do the same!

Its not healthy to be thinking in the past, so why do it. Work on yourself and yourself only.

Yeah I guess, but it shows there's still something there. I have been reading other topics, and came across one with a couple not having sex and they split up. I too did not have sex with this girl and I'm wondering if that's what made her finish it as she did say there was no chemistry. Don't get me wrong I was only seeing her for 4 months and didn't get to see her much, we nearly did the week previous to us splitting and I felt we became a little closer.

I know the no contact thing is for myself to heal, I do feel though it heals her too. If I get in contact I also understand it will give her an ego boost.

Is there anything someone can do to boost there own ego after being dumped and get an ex pissed off or jealous. I want to show her I isn't bothered and don't miss her in anyway, i.e. make her chase??

Get healthy, and get a life that you enjoy without her.

This kind of thinking is sick and obsessive and not healthy.

Well that's the weekend over. Was out with my friends and bumped into the ex, it was just a two minute conversation, no bad feeling between us, I didn't show I missed her or anything even though it was killing me.

She kept looking over before we spoke but she didn't want to speak for long so we both said "see you later". It was tough for me, I just wanted things back to the way they were, but there is nothing I can do and I certainly wouldn't contact her, very hard to deal with, but contacting her or acting like I miss her would push her away more I feel

Get healthy, and get a life that you enjoy without her.


This kind of thinking is sick and obsessive and not healthy.


She has been in contact again, through email saying sorry for what happened, she said I was right about her and that she has things unresolved in her mind. Its weird though one of her messages said " I bet u have a few girls on the go just now, shame one of them aint me". Now I don't know if that means she wishes she could see me again or she is being sarcastice but I just brushed it off with a light hearted comment.

She explained she didn't want to be friends but wasn't ready which is fair enough. It felt fine talking on email, I'm just a little paranoid in case she is just contacting me to relieve her guilt as she said she hasn't stopped thinking about it all and feels like crap

As said above, remove yourself from this situation and get a life without her. She probably wants to see if she still has you, an ego things, she wants her cake and eat it. GET YOURSELF OUT NOW!

Plenty of ways to do this, delete her from your life, go NC, keep yourself busy, enjoy life.

Im on bebo mate that's how she contatced me, so couldn't really ignore it.
I don't think she is interested anyhow, and I've never initiated any contact whatsoever, its always been her. I also would not give any indication that I like her, all I told her was I hold no grudges, and siad I could go from seeing her to being friends straight away, I'm not feeling as bad about it now anyway. She has a lot of issues in her head I feel and I don't need that.

She mailed me saying I was right about her, which shows I wasn't at fault. My friends seem to think in some way she still likes me, but I wouldn't go back

She just seems confused don't be mad at her give her some time she just got out of an relationship be there for her even if its just a friend because if you think about it before you could be in a good relationship you should be friends first

she just seems confused dont be mad at her give her some time she just got out of an relationship be there for her even if its just a friend because if you think about it before you could be in a good relationship you should be friends first
Im not really interested anymore in getting back with her, its too much grief for me but I isn't holding grudges. She has things in her head and I'm not pressuring her in2 telling me,I just want her to realise that she can't have me when she feels like it.
But I am suspicious of her trying to be pals, I don't mind the occasional chat. She is in some way trying to getr rid of her guilt I honestly don't think she likes me in any other way, but part of me thinks she regrets losing me, but its too late in that repsect

Forget about her she has way to many hang ups will onl cause you grief over time no good

I think she needs no contact more than you do.

I think she needs no contact more than you do.
Yes I agree with this as she wanted to stay in contact to chat. Ive not just found out from someone that she has been texting another guy and been out with him in his car, night out etc, even though I wouldn't go back to her this has hurt me and I find myself for some reason constantly thinking aout it, I guess I'm jealous and feel lied to as she said she didn't want a guy in her life. I think she is an attention seeker, itry to think they are just friends but they are chattin on bebo and clearly flirting with each other, I feel very angry and I don't want to feel like this but all I can think is her with him and not even bothering with me

I think your right she is exploring being single and with the handwriting on the wall, don't you think its time to focus on you. You do have a choice you know, you don't have to talk to her, nomatter that she calls to chat, if your always busy. Yes picking your nose is busy. You need to send the message your gone. No more chats.

Yes I need to focus more on me. Im having a problem on this bebo but, I have friends who I talk to on this and she had found me and got in contact. She mailed me privately saying sorry it was her fault etc, and at that time I accpeted - foolishly may I add, and said I didn't mind speaking to her. Now if I block her from bebo she will know this and I don't want to give her the satisfaction of knowing I'm still hurt as it just boosts her ego. I have never once inititated contact and never will but I feel I am wondering when she wll nxt contact me, this is the thoughts I can't control. What I'm meaning is I want to have no contact with her knowing I am not hurt in anyway and have completely moved on. I don't know how to get this message across

I don't know how to get this message across
Reread my post that you quoted. Block her from this bebo thing. What part of focus on you not her is confusing you?? Hate to be harsh, but I've heard all your excuses, where's the action part??

No not at all I do not see you as being harsh, I just didn't want to show in anyway that she has hurt me, I basically want to show I am strong enough

You disappearing is all the message she needs. That would show strength, control and power.

I have disappeared from this girls life and the only contact as I have said is when she has initiated it. The issue I find hard is my friend who works at a nightclub, said he seen her the other night and "she looked brilliant", he also said she was standing with a football player all night, he didn't see her go with him but I know they would have exchanged numbers as this is what she does.

Hearing these things seem to hurt me a lot and make me feel lied to. She said she needed time away from guys as she was confused about a lot of things, its only just over 2months since we split and already I'm feeling she has forgot about me. Looking back when I was with her I remember each night she had been out without me I would hear she would be standing talking to another guy all night, is this an attention thing she is doing??

I know it would never work with her as she seems like a bit of a player, but I can't seem to forget about her. Every time I hear about her with another guy I get jealous, I feel hurt as I thought she really likd me - her own words.

What is wrong with me? Any advice would be appreciated, I want to get over this

Nobody forgets about anyone. Unfortunately human nature does not allow us to. However we can choose to move on with our lives and concentrate on the things we like doing and planning nice things to do. That helps us to in a way to move on from our past.

Don't know how old she is but she obviously likes the attention from other guys, like flirting etc. An ego burst perhaps, maybe it's a sign of her insecurities like she needs the attention to make herself feel better about herself. As she gets older this will probably go. She probably wants a rebound also as she misses your support and wants it back...

Anyway NC for now work on yourself.

She is 21 and can get any guy. I was only seeing her for a few months, its not me she misses. She did email me 2 weeks ago saying she missed talking to me but that is her trying to be friends again and there is no point. In my opinion she wasn't over her ex, there is nothing good in this for me yet I find myself holding onto something that would only hurt me and leave me confused all the time.

I think my problem is my ego has been dented and I haven't took the rejection well, every time I see her I fancy her physically,also any other girl I meet I find myself comparing to her and nothing beats her

Why the hell are you seeing her? There are other women who are sexy to! I saw my ex the other night and she was absolutely stunning to me that is. Not to my friends. Yeh its hard but try not to get to into it. The more time goes and the more you do with your life you will start finding you have many more good memories you remember with new people in your life than ytour ex

Im not seeing her anymore, I may occasionaly bump in2 her if I'm out, I be polite but it hurts like hell. Yeah there are many sexy women out there, I've just never been so attracted in all my life the way I was with this one. I'm 26 and have met plenty of women. She seems like a player and I trusted her and believed her that she like me a lot, it takes a lot for me to trust a girl and after a break from my previous relationship, this girl I tought would make me feel good again, how wrong was I!!

Don't fret my friend. Hah my rents didn't meet till 30. Also my cousin split from his girl when she was 18 he was 21 (they had been together for a few years) anyway four years they saw each other and got back together and have been with each for 10 years now. So ;P W/E Just move on with your life and you don't know what will happen.

I blame myself, she said I scared her a little and what I think she meant was I was too full on which I feel I was, I went about it all wrong and I'm kicking myself. This is why I'm finding it hard to let go. People say this is a learning curve not to do it again which is true, but its frustrating that I can't let her see that I can be different and not so full on, I made a mistake and showed how much I liked her too soon.

I just wasn't my relaxed self and just rushed things, so silly and something I regret so much.

What's done is done, face reality and get some things you enjoy doing. Plan some trips away, go to live music, have a good life, you can't be miserable for ever! If you hold on you will be. Once you get yourself sorted she may see a new side to u!
