Your boyfriend broke up with you because you were talking about him.. Does something seem a little off there? I sincerely doubt that that's the reason you guys broke up, unless you said something really bad.

Well to be completely honest, I agree that unless you were saying something really horrible about him, that can't be why he broke up w/ you... n e way

If it is... and you didn't say anything really wrong... then you don't need him back. That kind of stuff is petty, and I think he was looking for a way out hunney...

Your better off w/out

Hope that helped.

When you're with someone for any length of time, some bad habits can appear. One really bad one is the idea that since you're going out, you get to abuse each other's hearts with jealous and controlling ways. That's unfortunate, but it is common.

This guy is putting himself in power over you. You are now defending yourself against something that wasn't even particularly wrong to do. And even if he "takes you back" in the future, you will have given him even more power to say who you can talk to about what.

I wouldn't reward this behavior. I wouldn't let him know his manipulations are even working. If I were in your shoes and my girl broke up with me under these circumstance, I would have said, "Oh, wow, you think you can control who I talk to and about what? Oh my, you're right. We are definitely breaking up. Thank you, I couldn't agree more."

Now, I'd still be broken up, but she wouldn't be sitting on the other end thinking she was in charge of anything... or had won.

There is such a thing as "emotional cheating" and it is becoming more common on the internet because we feel safe telling our private secrets to strangers (LOL, case in point - this site). If I were the "real life" boyfriend, I would consider it a red flag to find chat logs where my significant other was sharing private things with "net friends" that they did not discuss with me or a "real friend". One of my ex's told me years later that when he found me confiding so much with a guy online (even though that "guy" was more of an older brother figure to me) that it hurt him (A) to see me so unhappy but unwilling to see a counselor (B) to feel me slipping away and listening to the advice of others instead of my own heart (C) to find out that I was so immature as to find "escape" instead of pony up and talk to him about a solution.

Not to excuse his power grab, but maybe you are lucky he pulled the plug. Life's too short to be involved with someone controlling.
