You will be much better off concluding all business dealings with her.

Sounds like she needs to go to the post office and have all mail in her name forwarded...

How come the guys always get it worse than the girls. Seem like girls can always find somebody else to fill their voids.

Women tend to deal with the emotional pain while the relationship is happening. That's why she kept getting "upset." She was in the kind of pain while in the relationship. And it's not necessarily easy for her now either, but she was more ready to give up than you. In time, you'll be more ready too.

As for why is it easier for women to find another partner, that depends on the woman. For some women, it's very easy to find another partner; for others, harder. Generally, young women have more choices, since they can go with men their own age or older, while older women have fewer choices, since older men become rarer, while younger men or more likely to go with younger women. So if you are a young man, you are at a disadvantage now unless you are unusually kind, quite successful financially and quite handsome. But as you get older, you will have the advantage--this is just biology and numbers, not a moral view.

One last observation. Anyone who claims to be rational is deluding himself. Humans are not particularly rational--we operate from emotion all the time. It is when we are most convinced we are being rational and not taking our emotions into account that we are most ruled by our emotions. So accept your emotional nature as a good and valuable part of you. It's an important part of what makes you able to make decisions and to evaluate situations.

It's perfectly normal to feel hurt right now. You've been rejected. Ow! This happens to nearly everyone at some point. But use the next few days or weeks to think about what you learned from this relationship that you can use in the next one. It's awful to be blamed for everything, but just as you aren't to blame for everything, neither is she. Maybe there were one or two areas where she was right. Is there anything you could do in the future so your next girlfriend won't feel upset so much? Think about how this pain can be used to make your life better.

Most break ups are life lessons, in coping with your loss.

I think if we were compatible she wouldn't be hurt this much or she would not do things that make me lose it to cause her pain. I feel sorry for doing that but it is beyond my control. We are 10 years apart. She is in her early 20. I think she's too young and still doesn't know what she wants. I guess she live with me because she didn't have money and no job but now she got a job and be on her own she left. She like to compare me to her friends who marries these rich guys. It got me really upset. I didn't let her have friends since the people she hang out with are all about money and I don't want that kind of influence. I introduce her to my friends but she didn't get along with them.

We are not compatible, I am just stubborn keep trying to convince myself that it will work. I been down this road a few times. I'll recover, it just sux every time this happen.

Hi guys,

Help me out here, she text me at midnight and said I miss you darling. She said maybe she's drunk, maybe at this moment she doesn't want to hold me back.

I didn't want to reply and screwed up. Wot should I do. I have been applying the NC. Should I continue to do so or show that I care. I think I should be cold.


What if I want her back what should I do? Please advise.

Ignore it, it may be a drunk text which she will regret. Keep NC.

She's 20 and you're 30? Her mates marry older richer guys? If I were you I would steer well clear. Even if things work out then in my opinion its only a matter of time that she looks elsewhere.. I never trust people who get involved with a person because they're rich.

If you want to contact her and want to see what's happening then I would ask her to meet up and say whatever she is feeling to your face and not by text. She might have been drunk and missing you but that doesn't necessarily mean that she wants to get back. If you do feel the need to contact her, then give yourself one last chance and stick to it - personally I wouldn't but everyone is different. If you don't want to give her another chance then just ignore her and move on - its hard and you always think 'what if' but from experience if you keep stringing things out its only harder in the long run. When you start pining for her remember why you broke up - people always tend to focus on the good times and ignore the bad. Get out and do something, go to the gym and tone up, take up a new hobby or learn something new - do something constructive rather than moping about as it will only get you down.

Just in regards to your comment 'She is in her early 20. I think she's too young and still doesn't know what she wants.' - that is probably true but again that's something that she needs to figure out by herself and you hanging around won't get this decision made.

I have one saying that I live my life by... 'regret what you did, not what you didn't' so if your gut feeling says to have one more chance then do it, if you think that this is never going to work then walk away with a clean break rather then a painful separation. Whatever your decision is then make it and don't doubt it. Your life is yours to live so go out and do what you think is right and in the end just enjoy yourself. Its when you aren't looking that you generally find the woman you have been looking for.

Thanks for the advice Roborat,


She's is in her mid 20. When she was living with me though she stop hanging out with all her friends because she afraid she'll turn into them again. She was down the rich road before and she learned her lesson. She was afraid that it will happen again. But can people really change from who they are? She started to compare again the last few months because she got contact with them again. I got upset when I was compared. This was the reason why I got upset and didn't talk to her and she moved out which I didn't stop her this time. She tried to move out a few times before but I stopped her for different reason though.


I don't want to txt her and said I want to talk because a week after she left I already try to beg her and want her back but she keep pushing me away. I txt her, try to be nice but she blames me for everything. I did the NC and yesterday I txt her to tell her to transfer the phone to her name and then this is the txt I got. I think if she want to talk or give it another chance she would have say so. She said she missed me because she's drunk that doesn't mean a lot.

I think this txt message "I miss you darling. She said maybe she's drunk, maybe at this moment she doesn't want to hold me back. " is just her way of seeing if I am desperate in calling her so she can avoid me again. I am not falling for it. Wot do you guys think.

She call me today regarding the phone ask me how she can transfer it. I pick up the phone and I said I am busy and hang up. A moment later she txt me back and said it's OK she'll get another phone and send me mine. I think she's upset I said I am busy. Wot should I do?

Nothing to do, you have done it, so wait for the phone.

If she wont take the full contract then i would cancel it. I wouldn't care if it costs $400, its the principal of it. She has decided that she doesn't want you so why not do as she wishes. Let her stand on her own two feet. Stop being a safety net... the only way she will see you in the proper light is when you aren't there anymore - its unfortunate, but thats life. As a female friend once told me after we finally got it out of her that her current boyfriend was abusing her when he was drunk - 'I used to think that my ex was the most boring bloke on earth but i would give anything to get back with him now'

I txt her yesterday regarding the phone, She called me and ask me how can she transfer the phone, I already txt her and explain this and I don't want to talk to her so I said I was busy she txt me back and said she'll get a new phone instead.

I txt her yesterday " Sorry I was busy and didn't have a chance to talk, if you need time to get your new phone I'll cancel the phone at the end of the month"

She txt me back with my phone and said she already got a new phone. I doublt that she got a new phone but anyway I already call the company to cancel the phone. It cost me 400 but you're right it's a matter of principle. The contract end at the end of the billing cycle. She called me last night but I didn't pick up.


You're right, I shouldn't be the safety net anymore that way she'll see the proper light. Thanks all for the advice, this site has been great. It helps calm me down and keep me in control of the situation.

Sounds like you are right that you are not compatible. You said you've been through this before. So I'm wondering what kinds of things would happen to set you off.

Sometime she act childish, for instant bad mouth me in front of my friends. Give my stuff away without asking me and when I talk to her about it she would talk back. It made me upset and when I am upset I don't talk and don't answer. It does drives her crazy and she wanted to move out a few times when we got these arguments.

I am not saying I am perfect here. I am sure I do things that are not right neither. I find that I can't explain things to her. Every time I tried, she would cry and that's the end of that I have to compromise. It seem that she can cry her way out of anything. I know I shouldn't do that and let her go because I am losing respect every time I don't stick to my principal.

There is a saying, you don't totally know a person until you live with him/her. Dating is so much easier.

Relationship is tough, things may be good at the beginning but it can change. My problem is that I don't know how to keep it the same like it used to be. How do you that when your mind tell you that I am sick and tired of it. Any advice on keeping the relationship exciting.

There are a lot of things you can do. One of the best ideas I can give you is to have a life outside of your relationship. Just let the relationship be part of your identity. Be confident... let her know that you are fine without her and that you are a stand up kind of guy. But you also have to know when it's time to throw in the towel.

Actually I do have a life outside of my relationship. Learn this from previous ones. I have a job and a side business and have friends who I hang out with every weekend. I find that living together there are problems that I can't deal with. Little things can set me off. Dating is easy, you don't get to see that person everyday.

I broke up with my ex over a month now. We've been living together for over a year. Below is the original thread. The last time we txt was about the phone which I paid for. I said I'll cancel it. She text me back said I can get the phone back anytime just give her a call. I txt and said OK thanks. That was a bit over a week ago. I went NC since. I don't seem to get any better with the NC. It hurt like hell and I missed her a lot but I stopped the urge to call and txt and not going to see her at her work place. I don't know if I am doing the right thing.

https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/relati...ng-249140.html

Yes, you are doing the right thing. I am also on a week of NC. It's hard as all heck, I know how you feel. But, listen to everyone here. The only way to get over it is to just say no. Take everything day by day. Someone here told me great advice:

If you have the urge to call/txt/check up on Facebook, whatever, tell yourself you are not going to do it just this one time. Then don't. Then when you want to call again, tell yourself the same thing again. I will not do it just this once. Before you know it, you can tell yourself, "Okay, I will not try and contact her today." Before we know it it'll be weeks, months, years, and gone.
