Like I said earlier, if you two can work through this, if you can take her back without throwing it in her face every time you get upset, go for it. You know her better than we do. I think it is a good idea that the marriage is off too.
Make sure this behavior and hurt is behind the two of you before you go into a marriage

Once should ask you the same question. So I will. Why are you so filled with hate that you are making false accusations and trying to redirect everybody from the problems you are facing. I’d say that you read any of these posts here no one person has shown any hate towards you. In fact, I’ll take it a step further - I’d go so far to say that you are the one with hate. You don’t like the answers you’ve got so you start making up stories about how I’m threatening you. Please, you and I could walk by each other on the street and I’d never know who you are, and if I did I’d be buying you a beer not beating you up.
I’ll tell you exactly what happened. You are afraid to face the loss of your girlfriend and you are mad (dare I say HATE filled) towards her for what she did to you. Your friends have told you to get rid of her but that would mean facing loss and starting over….which is painful. But you also don’t like feeling the pain that SHE (as in not any one of us….. or any one of your friends…or anybody else on this planet) caused you. But you dare not direct that HATE towards her because she’s already taught you exactly what she’ll do. She’ll drop you and sleep with someone else. Then she’ll make you be friends with him. Then she’ll lie to you about it. Then once she knows you won’t ever do a damn thing about it because she has you so wrapped around her finger that you would rather suffer with her then face the loss she’ll admit to you that she lied….over and over and over and over and over and over and over and again and again and again and again and again and again and then again but when she realized you would be to afraid to leave her….much less upset her she told you the truth. She had nothing to lose. She knew it, so why not torture you some more.
So you turned to your friends. Your friends, thinking with a clear head told you to get rid of her. That was not the answer you wanted so ignored them and continued to torture yourself. Then you came here and low and behold you got the same answers –get rid of her. Not only was that not what you wanted, but now filled with hate towards the one person who has allowed this abuse (that would be yourself) you lashed out with the false accusations and then changed your story to cover for HER the one person who caused all this. If you want to talk about who is a hater and where is the understanding why don’t direct it at the one person who deserves it?

And you got it. What you really wanted was some people to lie to you and say, she was wonderful and this is okay behavior, and if that’s what you want go to Ineedsomebodytolietome.com. If you want the truth as outsiders see it based on what you write….. even when you change your story, then you’ve got the right place.

What seems to anger you is that nobody agrees with you. Is this what you really want…”Oh LMS she is such a great girl and the fact that that mean guy who is probably a serial killer took advantage of such a sweet innocent angel, who of course was despondent over losing such a great guy like you in a time of confusion is not something you should hold against her.”
While you didn’t get that answer because it’s a lie.

What an even sadder world when we consider there are women out there break up with a guy, screw someone else, then when he shows no real long term interest, that woman gets back with the guy she put on the back burner and then lies to him about screwing the guy she was really interested in.
If I had to choose between what was sadder, that girl I just described or the advice you’ve got –I’d pick the girl.

Get your head out of you’re a$$ if you don’t think for one second you are not getting used. Actually I think you know it, you are just afraid to accept it. Fear is big thing with you isn’t it. Fear dictates a big portion of your life. If some guy who has never meant you can see this, I wonder what a female, more in tune with how emotions work, and one that knows you none the less would use that to her advantage? Provide some examples that come to mind if you would.

we are not all the same and not everyones head works the same.
More accusations about what is really affecting you. Everyone’s head doesn’t work the same but human beings do follow patterns of behavior and your girlfriend has had a consistent pattern what we the hate communities call “lying.” That means she doesn’t tell the truth.

With all due respect to Cookie she did not remain impartial. She gave a answer that you liked because it told you to stay with her and that your HATE for her would dissolve over time. As I noted in one of my “threatening” posts I could not tell you what to do, you had to make that decision for yourself, but for YOUR benefit I recommended breaking up with her (GOD THAT WAS THREATENING). But Cookies answer strokes you fragile, feared emotions so that is the one you clung to and ignored those that would cause more pain by breaking up with someone that you’ve been with. Again, I’m not telling you what to do but your girlfriend didn’t come here and post a message about how she manipulates her boyfriend and gets to lie about it so I didn’t get to respond to her. You came here and posted a message about what happened, the aftermath, and then you posted a second a message that was completely different once you realized you had buried your girlfriend and everybody was telling you that you deserve better.

Your girlfriend, who screwed some other guy, then lied to you about it now is telling you to “just stop all the shi*.” Okay and you think I’m threatening?

I love it. You did all this because she told you this was the way to start over with nothing hanging over you.

You’ve certainly proved what kind of man you are.

positive thoughs to help me get through it!
LMS, I have been in situations where I let the fear of dropping someone fool me into staying with them, even though I knew it wasn’t healthy. I’ve just spent an hour writing this out and the time I’ve spent with the other two posts along with the other posters who have tried to help you is more time then she’s ever spent thinking about what is best for YOU. You can lie about how we hate you and we don’t know what we are talking about and everything else. If I hated you I wouldn’t be posting this. If I thought less of you then she does I wouldn’t waste my time. It is time for once in your life to start thinking about number 1. She sure doesn’t. She doesn’t even respect you and it is clear as day. She has now not only lied to you she’s removed you from the life you’ve known in the name of “having nothing hang over us.” Give me a break. What kind of love is it when you have to leave everything you know?

As our good friend Ross would say to his then ex girlfriend Rachel: "we were on a BREAK!!!!"
(from the sitcom Friends)
In case you're from another planet and can't relate to this: Ross had sex with another woman soon after Rachel broke up with him. But it was only sex, no feelings involved. He felt bad and came clean. They separated for almost 8 seasons (tv seasons) until they got back together.
You had people supporting Ross, and you had some people supporting Rachel.
What I'm trying to say is that it's pretty clear that she screwed up (literally), but everybody makes mistakes. As soon as I broke up with my girlfriend, I wanted to sleep with somebody else just to ease the pain, even though I still loved her and wanted to get back with her. Some people just deal with pain differently. You can't expect everybody to take it the same way as you do.
From what I read, you were doing all right until she confirmed that she had sex with someone else. Just let it slide, she came clean because she wants to look ahead without carrying any extra weight on the relationship. Good for her. At least she was honest. Ok, she lied at first, but if you put me in that situation,
I would also lie, and not tell the truth until I'm certain that I want to be with that person, why blow your cover if it's going to end anyway?
Hope this is the kind of positive feedback you're looking for.

My dear, I've been around a long time. This forum is one of the best you'll ever find for free advice from people with a lot of personal experience. We do not judge or 'hate'. We tell it like it is by what you write. I do sometimes read between the lines, and what I see is a woman who has got you by the *alls and she knows it.
There are many women out there who would just love to get to know you and live in a nice house, have a great time, and also have a few flings on the side. A lot of girls dream of just this type of fella until the right one comes along. What the heck - Girls Just Want to Have Fun - right? As long as you let her do the leading in this dance of life and to her tunes, you'll never have to work hard at finding real happiness. And, that to me is taking the easy way out.
So, whatever you decide, I wish you a lot of luck and happiness.
 Please don't take your weaknesses out on those of us who only want to let you know that there are other alternatives to happiness.

I doubt it bothers her when he's upset. She'll probably just smile, kiss it and make it better, and go on to her next fling, knowing full well that she can do what she wants with this man. He's already proven that, so why give up a good thing... marriage or not.
 She'll just love him for what he is for as long as she wants.

Hi,
Stush!
Wow thanks for that long post must have taken you ages to do that..
1st let me say you do not threaten me.. I meant and in my opinion
You are a very straight and direct talking person now when I read the 2nd post you put
And I said I felt threatened I meant within that post I could feel some anger in your words
Because it was very direct and to the point.. kind of took me by surprise..
I know what your saying but your wrong... in what you perceive as what's happening here..
I read your posts word for word and I admit the things you say seem very plausible
But your not getting it, your focusing on "her" and what she did.. I'm really trying to get away from that and focus the subject on me.. after all I am the one here answering
I am not defending her.. its me that's needs the help..
The hater thing is exactly that... no one "NO ONE" has flamed or hated upon me
I meant that people are flaming her and hating on her.. I can't see why
Again its me that needs the help
I know your not meaning to do this and I realise your only trying to make me see and understand in your eyes what is happening, I write this honestly..
In no way is she controlling me yes she lied..
I know your not meaning to do this but your kind of twisting the truth in my eyes
And turning things around picking up on little things I say and taking them the wrong way
Then putting into your own words what you think is correct..
I say this in the nicest way possible you are not correct
The reason my friends say get rid of her is because they think I'm far to good for her..
They have never liked her.. they are kind of bias because they like me a great deal so any reason that comes up to end it.. they just say end it lol..
I didn't know what to expect when I posted here... but one things for sure..
I did not expect you and your kind of not helping matters in my case..
I don't hate anyone that has posted here nor do I hate any of my friends..
I don't even hate her, yes I'm hurt and it will take me a while to get over this
But I will get over it and who knows what I will think then
Please don't quote me again :| :)
I am not fearfull of anything

My quick insight on this post after reading it completely, is that you should be careful with this woman, a single lie destroys a whole reputation for integrity. The part that bothers me most is the quick break and her sleeping with someone else, even though you weren't together she obviously felt some guilt and knew that hence her wanting to stop, even that statement would be looked upon with great doubt because of her keeping the lie going by denying any relations with this guy. Anyway you just keep your eyes open, and take it one day at a time be smart, and go with your gut feeling.

I sincerely hope, for you, that you mean it. You sound like life has been pretty easy for you so far and that in itself can make you vulnerable and might make you think that she might change because you are such a good guy. That's not in reality in the nature of a woman who has had the taste of getting away with her actions and manipulative ways. We women can really be beasts, believe me. Some of us learn from our mistakes and some of us continue to be manipulative by choice for the rest of our lives.
Just be observant and careful.

Its over. Reread your post to see what I mean. You are dealing with issues that cannot be solved by being with this person. You're always going to question her, you're always going to have trust issues, and you're always going to be left wondering what really happened. Who knows, they could have had sex more than once, or perhaps she could have finished what she started with this guy that same night instead of it going on for a few minutes. The question is, do you trust her? Relationships are based on trust and if you can't trust her there is no point of trying to make it work. It is almost like you bought the house and took her back to make yourself forget. It's not working is it? I thought so. Dump her and move on because you're a better person and one day she will realize what she lost. I feel for you but don't ever allow anyone to take advantage of you. How could she make you be friendly with this guy? She doesn't care about your feelings, your manhood, or your character. Is this the woman you want by your side?

Yes I am very direct. I also do it for a reason and that reason is to knock you out of your safety net. If I sat here and said "it will get better" and "time heals all wounds" and all the gibberish nothing would change. That's exactly what you expect because that is what most people say so why bother saying it. I'm trying get you out of your comfort zone so you see what is exactly going on and you can grow in a positive manner that helps you. If the tables were reversed I'd hope you'd do the same for me... in fact I'd expect it.
I'm not trying to attack you, I'm trying to get you to see what's going on. Everybody sees what has happened here, and to be honest I think you see it too, but you don't want to admit it. I'll be the first to admit to you that I'm an emotional guy, and I've had trouble seeing through my own emotions at times, and I see that in you.
 Originally Posted by LetMeSee

If I am I'll be the first to admit it. But LMS, read the posts on this site, and notice a pattern of behavior with women who put guys on a back burner then sleep with someone else and when that doesn't work they go back to the first guy because he's "safe." I won't BS you, I've allowed it to happen to me. I'm not somebody that is perfect on this front and is the all mighty. Not even close, but I can tell you I've been where you are at. I've been in a position where I didn't want to give up what I had because then I'd be alone or I didn't want to deal with the pain of the break up but at the same time I was PO'd at the one I was with because she did something with someone else during a "break." So I just stayed there suffering. That is exactly what you are doing.

Thank you. So we are getting though to you.

You and I are in full agreement. It is you that needs help, and you are the one that deserves help. But I'm trying to tell you that you can help yourself by getting away from her. By staying with her you are continuing to pick at an open wound. The first step for YOU to heal is to get away from her. Let me ask you, how can you stay with her and expect to heal this deep emotional wound that insults your loyalty, respect, demeanor, honesty, and overall character.
 Originally Posted by LetMeSee

i meant that people are flaming her and hating on her.. i can't see why
again its me that needs the help
I will not disagree that she has received some harsh critism but... well she deserves it. If that's hating on her then I'm guilty. But again I agree with you that you need help. But you are coming off as though you are blind to what she is doing and what she is doing is prolonging you from getting help. If you know how you can heal with her constantly staring in your face reminding you that she is not living by the same stanards you are then help me understand how that can be. This happened months ago and you pain and mistrust in her has not got better but in fact, it's got worse. If you continue doing the same thing, you are going to get the same results, and everybody here agrees you deserve better then that.
 Originally Posted by LetMeSee

That is what everybody here is trying to do, and ironically we are in agreement this is not an emotionally healthy situation for you.

Please reread your posts. She is controlling you through emotions. Please just reread your posts as though I wrote them and tell me what conclusions you would draw.

I'm not exactly sure what you are referring to but I do pick up on little things that some people wouldn't notice. However, in your case it's very obvious to everybody that this is not a little thing, it's quite huge what is going on.

What do they know, that we don't?

i did not expect you and tbh your kinda not helping matters in my case..
I hope this doesn't come back to bite me but who is tbh?
As for not helping you, again did you want us to lie to you and stroke your ego or did you want us to tell you the truth and help you out? Look, I've had things come up and Tal has handed me the bitter truth. Do I enjoy it? No. Do I need to hear it to get my head back on straight? YES. So do you.
So if the truth isn't helping you, what would?
 Originally Posted by LetMeSee

but i will get over it and who knows what i will think then
I think we all see this. I'm not telling you to hate her, that's only going to prolong your pain. We are suggesting you leave this situation so this pain does not continue. By staying with her you continue to pick at an emotional wound and you never allow it to heal. Let's just assume you had left her months ago when this all happened, would your pain be this bad still? No because you would have let this emotional wound heal with out her constant reminder of what happened.

Hi,
Chuff
I don't really know what to say to that, kind of hit a cord I guess..
Lastnight I went away and thought about all the things you said..
And I cannot disagree with anything you say..
But in my own mind because I hold all the facts I can't help but think
Is this really how it is to me it doesn't seem like it..
I kind of have 2 voices now when before there was only one my own
Now I have 2 one saying what I think and the other telling me to do the complete
Opposite
Let me explain that.. before I came here.. I thought I knew what I wanted
And how I was handling things I thought I was doing pretty well..
I guess I see now what she has done is very bad
I personally could get over this and move on with her..
After reading your last post (which was very good btw) you have
Convinced me ( not convinced but made me think about other things)
Yes I love this girl but have I really to let her get away with this so easy
I have gone through this many times in my own head and I thought I could
After reading all the comments here I don't think I should
I don't think I will completely trust her again so what's the point in continuing the relationship if I think that..
Yes I was/am in denial and maybe I didn't want to face the truth
I have looked at her in the face many times and wondered do I really
Want to spend any more time with this person my mind said no.. But my heart said yes
I've been a fool following heart I can't help but think she will be nothing without me
Like she was before I met her.. I've helped and changed her a lot into a better person
But I guess that's kind of turned round and bitten me on the arse
I admit now that you are correct.. most of you are.
This hurts even more than the act and lie its self
That I have to be honest with myself and see how much of a fool I've been
The last thing I wanted was to look like an idiot again I guess its to late for that
Its time to be honest with myself
I've been made to look like an idiot for the last few months
I really thought I could make it with this girl with a little time patiance
And a little modification to myself
I can kind of understand that this will never happen I want it to more than anything but I know it won't in the back of my mind.
I guess I need more time to process these new feelings I have right now..
I don't want to admit its over but I know I have to
This girl isn't the right person for me..
I guess the next thing I need to do is talk to her and tell her what is going to happen next..
This is really hard for me.. I hope you understand that.. I don't really want to do it..
But I know I have to
I guess that's all I have to say except for thank you everyone for being honest.
Ill post here after I've spoken to her which will be some time this afternoon and tell you
How it went if your interested..
Kind of weird that I have done a 180 for real this time..
All I can say to that is that you made me think about other things..
Which has changed what I was originally thinking...
It's the hard way but I can understand it's the right way.
Again thank you

Hi,
Ok I've spoken to her, we both got very emotional but I was strong
I previously written everything down so I didn't forget anything
I told her honestly what I feel, it wasn't easy because I didn't really want to say those things
I didn't want to hurt her :/ but know I have I feel a little better.. purely because I was honest with myself and her for the 1st time ever.. no games or footing around the root of the problem... I knew what the problems were and I kept a straight head to get them across to her..
She just kept repeating she was so sorry she hurt me like this and she knows she f* it all up she will always love me and ill always be in her heart..
When I read the scibbles I had written I realised that this is definitely for the best
My best point of fact.. I remembered many things that have happened that I had brushed under the carpet... it doesn't make me love her any less.. but it has made me see a whole new side to what I thought :/ that this relationship could have never worked properly
Even without her doing what she did.. I don't think it would have worked in the end..
Maybe I'm just saying that because I'm not happy right now.. I don't know..
I guess all that remains for me to do is not give in to her no more and listen to my brain and not my heart so much and try and get on with my life on my own for the time being..
God I'm all over the place :/ sorry
Again thank you for making me see sense
I know now if I would have stayed with her I would have resented what she did
And maybe take it out on her later down the line which would cause even more problems
So this break up is definitely for the best..
I know I'm hurting a lot right now.. but I do not regret posting here..
It has surprised me a great deal thank you for all the help so far..
Sorry I've been a pain in the arse up to this point :/ I don't know what else to say
Ahh just a thought... no of you convinced me or persuaded me to end this relationship
After reading your posts and re-reading them a few times my train of thought started to change and I guess that was the goal all along to make me see another side of the situation.. I made this decission on my own because I now realise it's the right thing to do. Ill now face this head on and hopefully
Be back to my normal self in a short time.. I also have to med a few bridges with a few of my friends.. whom I have had some harsh words with recently.
That's all I have to say for now.. thank you again

It's good that at least you recognize what your girlfriend has done to you and its good you decided to come here to get people opinions because this must have been on your mind. After reading what everybody said I agree what most people said especially chuff because I too was in this situation and decided to stay against all my friends advice, mostly because I did not want to start over and I thought if I loved him I should stay and work it out, but that was a bad choice for me. I realize once trust is out the door there nothing left because that's one main component of a relationship and if you stay with that person there would always be "what if" factor and you will find yourself doubting her and believe me that's not a way to live.
You seem like a nice guy that might have put more in this relationship than her and watch out for that because girls will take that for granted and you come off like her recscuer since you stated you help make her a better person. It glad you taking second look at your relationship and realize the hurt she cause and sometimes in life you have to learn to let go and like you realize think with your head and not your heart. I think getting a house happen to soon but I guess you see that now but I wish you best and glad you learned from this experience and in the future never be no one doormat.

yes i love this girl but have i really to let her get away with this so easy
i have gone through this many times in my own head and i thought i could
after reading all the comments here i dont think i should
i dont think i will completely trust her again so whats the point in continuing the relationship if i think that..
yes i was/am in denial and maybe i didnt want to face the truth
i have looked at her in the face many times and wondered do i really
want to spend any more time with this person my mind said no.. but my heart said yes
Ive been a fool following heart i can't help but think she will be nothing without me
like she was before i met her.. Ive helped and changed her a lot into a better person
but i guess that's kinda turned round and bitten me on the arse

I am a romantic and I guess that part of me hoped that you two could move past this. But I don't think you can.
First of all what she did was wrong, although she had broke up with you, maybe she broke up with you because she wanted to be with someone else, but she did later come clean.
But your whole attitude about her from what you wrote and said previously about her sucks IMO.
You took on someone you would not have ordinarily dated and thought you'd give it a try (like she was some project) and you said you fell for her. Now you say she was nothing before you met her.
While what she did was wrong, I still say it was this haughty attitude of yours that probably led her to want to be with someone else. Maybe someone who treated her as an equal.
I hope you do leave her alone because you will never allow her to live this down, even if it was a one time thing even if she is truly sorry and would never do it again.
You are no better than she is, at least she came clean with you. You are still lying to her and to yourself. I think deep down inside you expected her to do something like this so you can pat yourself on the back at how wonderful and how much better you are than she is, how you took this no good something and tried to make something of her. Everyone here has reiterated that by telling you how low down she is and how too good you are for her, so I guess you've received your pat on the back.
Maybe I'm wrong, but right now I'm thinking she needs to be away from you, you would never be able to make her happy because you have always thought you are better than she is anyway.
This whole thing leaves a very bad taste in my mouth

LMS,
The last post you posted has a huge difference between all the others. It was about you and doing what was best for you. While break ups do suck, they can be tough YOU should be proud that you took steps that better YOUR life. Don't let your emotions cloud all those giant steps you took for yourself today

Also, I just wanted to point out none of us had to. YOU knew what to do the entire time, you just needed some reassurance that YOU were making the right decision for YOU and that, that was okay for you to do. It's always best for you to make decisions that benefit you, because the moment you start giving everything is the moment you have nothing left to give.

Hi,
Here I am back again,
I'm feeling really low tonight and how no one to talk to
So I thought id come here and have a rant..
Sorry if I am harping on about on this subject
I'm just feeling really upset tonight..
She been texting me quite a bit saying how much she loves me
And is this it is it really over... she thinking about me all the time..
I'm always in her thought... I've been OK uto tonight..
I've answered her text but nothing like I would have before..
Hard to explain but there was chatter in my reply text
Just straight answers... I thought I'm doing OK here..
I can answer the text and I'm fine..
Until tonight..
Remember previously I said we changed phone numbers..
Well the reason behind that was to get rid of the people that text her..
The only people that text her are her friends..
But her friends are also this other guys friends.. they don't like me..
Probably because they want her to be with him I don't really know why
They don't even know me that well.. I'm always nice to them chatty and that...
Her best friend is the guys best friend.. she works with her best friend
She is a barmaid in a pub..
Well anyway I'm jabbering so ill cut to the chase..
The reason why we decided well actually I decided she needed to change her phone
Number this was one the things I asked for when I got back with her.. that she doesn't speak to the friends that are friends with this guy any more.. all the numbers were on this
Phone.. she changed her simcard and she told me that she had snapped the other one
And thrown it in the bin, I didn't think she had..
So now were finished as I stated a few days ago she text me today
Telling me about her day etc she misses me etc..
I couldn't answer back cause I had no credit..
I got some later on and texted her back
She didn't answer.. I texted again about 2 hours later she didn't answer...
I wondered what was up so I phoned her.. it went straight to answer phone..
So I phoned her other number.. the old one she said she had snapped and thrown in the
Bin... it rang 5 times and went to answer phone..
This has really gotten on my nerves... that she lied again about doing that..
My mind is all over the place now thinking what she is doing but more to the point
Who she doing it with.. I know I shouldn't think these thoughts as its over..
It was me who finished it but I still love her very much..
I know I don't want to be with her after what she did last time..
Can't help but think is she doing it again..
Feel like I'm losing my mind here..
I don't know what is wrong with me.. usually I handle
Big problems really well.. but this is totally doing my head in..
I just want to explode and go crazy on someone!
Has anyone any good advice that will help me get through this?

Leave her alone. If you have to tell her who she can talk to and who she can't, you don't need to be there. That is not right. She is grown, so if you can't trust her, leave her alone.
Leave her alone. PERIOD
