You really respect your girlfriend and want to show her the same love she's shown you? Leave her alone. She deserves better. I don't mean to attack you saying this, it's just it seems she'll hold on...

He told you from the start, take him at his word. Either your OK with that or not. I think you'd prefer something more, if so get out now. He's not playing you in any way. He's been totally honest....

In my mind it'a only a testament to who she is, someone who's willing to learn from her past but doesn't need to erase it. Strong and healthy girl, methinks.

Fact is she can erase them from a...

Thank you very much Tal, I'm doing my best to put my emotions to the side for the good of my own mental health! :D

So Hi Everyone,

I've been talking to my boyfriend and I'm going down next week for a visit. My primary concern going is to see how he is. I'm afraid though considering how important he is to me...

Thanks a million guys and for Just Looking and mardimart, thank you for sharing your stories. They've really helped. I'm trying to be strong and I'm trying to hang in there I know it has to come from...

Yup, totally normal, you only need to worry if you feel you might want to act on it :)

If you feel you are ready for a relationship then go find one, this isn't it!

Booty calls don't change, you made an unsaid agreement and he's lived up to his side of it, think it's time to move on...

You cannot blame yourself for his uninterest or selfishness in the bedroom. This is clearly not only about your sex life though, you don't think he's going to bring you anywhere for Valentine's Day? ...

Hi folks, thanks for all your answers and confirming what I already knew. It's not so much what I should do as I know the only option I have is to be patient and hope that he will want to return to...

Hi everyone,


I haven't been here for a while but I'd love to hear your thoughts on my current situation. My boyfriend and I have been seeing each other for about 9 months and have been committed...

Ah come on?

You say it's an ethical issue you? Well it is and your ethical obligation is to yourself. This man doesn't treat you properly. Lets just look at the facts here: When you first started...

At the end of the day it doesn't really matter if it's a lame excuse or if he really does have a low sex drive.

That you two are committed to each other and until you, he or you both decide to...

Thing is though, open this door, even by discussion with your husband and it will be very hard to control or close.

Think long and hard before you do anything.

Lastly, being bisexual is not a...

I think that the best way for you to deal with this situation is to write a letter, address it to her and say all the things that you need and want to say, vent your emotions completely and be...

I would definitely leave her alone, she has disrespected you and played with your emotions.

Yes, you were wrong in texting some other girl, but that is not a reason for her to shut you out. And to...

Whatever the answer is it doesn't matter. She's moved on to another relationship. Whether it's a healthy one is none of your business.

Time for you to move on.

A relationship is about 2 people coming together, communicating and attempting to understand one another.

The question that keeps going through my head is what age are you guys? Seems like a very...

As you said this is your first serious relationship and sometimes it can be daunting when things go so well in the relationship, sometimes the more cynical of us feel that we are just setting...

She is a user and a cheater and you got off easy... it seems this guy isn't going to be so lucky.

I don't like to say once a cheater always a cheater because I don't believe the world is black and...

Yeah of course we'll 'just do it'?! Come on dude! At least asking politely might have got you a kinder eye! No one on this site is going to just write it for you!

You can go to a store yourself and get one. There is no need to involve your father.

However, although it may be awkward to talk to your father about this it would be easiest to start now as at...

Emop, I think in regards this situation taken as a sole island you did the right thing in being honest.

But as a whole I do think that you are rushing.

However, I worry for this new boy too....

She's wondering did she make a mistake as we all do when we hear that someone that we used to be with moved on.

My ex recently got engaged. Although our relationship is over for years and we both...

Short answer, no.

You've asked him and he said he saw you as FWB, unless something has changed... which it seems it hasn't... well I'm going to guess there is no change.

Sorry.

I don't think that you should be drinking for a start! You and your friend are young, and quite frankly out of control. Being admitted to hospital for excess of alcohol/alcohol poisoning?!

Stop...

Why is that necessary?

You need to stop obsessing and I think in order to get some self worth you need to go to therapy. You need to feel you are not defined by a relationship that is WELL over.

Finally, why would you...

This will be the hardest and closest you will ever be to this woman. She may be in your life forever but that will be at a distance, preferably a big one!

Be the bigger person for a week. You have...

Then tell her that, communication is key in a relationship.

If you really feel this intense about this then you need to put your neck on the line, you may get hurt but nothing ventured, nothing...

So you are waiting to be dumped again?

This girl needs to deal with her feelings. You can't speed up that process and no matter HOW much she wants to be over these issues she's not.

Keeping...

Yup delete them from your Facebook and your thoughts. No matte what she wants, whether to get back together or be friends, you are not able for this.

As for getting back together? It is easy to...

I think that an ex can always haunt us, months and years after the break up and the healing.

Was she your first love? A lot of times, and I have spoken to people who are happily married for years...

I agree that you may be headed for hurt here, but I don't think it's wrong, especially considering that his ex wife has no problem with it.

But, how long are they separated? Why? Is it a legal...

Absolutely, move on. Someone without the respect and maturity to be genuine with you doesn't deserve your love or time.

NC and healing time now, have a look at the stickies, they're really helpful...

KBC, I don't know if I agree with you here, I don't think medication is the be all and end all of depression. In fat it can become a crutch! If the OP doesn't feel she wants to be on these or that...

Why amish?

Please do.

Respect her feelings and trust the one you love, back off. One way or another she could be thinking of breaking up, but accusing her of this or making assumptions on her behalf will get you no where...

I am really glad that you have seen no other signs of excessive drinking and I hope that that continues. I, personally, don't condone drink driving because it only takes once and it might, well...

I think that you are living in your mother's house and that if you are under her roof you live by her rules. Not only that, but skipping school is really silly, an education is the road to the big...

Well you have been seeing him for a while now and hang out often, I don't think that there's anything wrong with having a physical relationship. But if you are not ready for that, by all means, leave...

To be honest we all do silly things when we get out of a relationship.

You were honest, she will get over it. It was one night. Just get yourself checked and don't get in this situation again.
...

Asking,

I'm getting in very late in this one but it seems to me that you are being manipulated here.

My red flags are: his insistence that you be exclusive before you were ready for these...

I think that the rest of the posters are correct it seems that she has dumped you and either doesn't have the heart or the cajonas to do with a bit of respect for you and the love you shared.

I...

Get a test.

Look stop letting everyone else's opinions on you and your life make you feel anyway at all! It is your life, and your assessment of it is the most important. No one else's.

You feel that you have...

Agree with Tal and amicon, you got off easy. Why would you want someone that is so lacking in understanding?

Time to get a real man who can deal with someone who has had a past, good bad or...

I would get a lawyer and a mod might want to change this to a law forum...

Yup some relationships have an expiry date, in fact most of them, unless you get married and live happily ever after.

There is no shame in a relationship burning out. It happens. There is shame,...
