sandylee1 Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 His short temper is more than enough reason to be done. You sound very desperate to hang onto him. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Author natashalove Posted February 18, 2018 Author Share Posted February 18, 2018 OP, you are in deep denial because you don't want to believe your man is into another woman. But he clearly is. And you know it deep down, otherwise you wouldn't be posting here asking us to convince you he isn't. Ok but hes not going to see her anymore. So what kind of liking is that?

Author natashalove Posted February 18, 2018 Author Share Posted February 18, 2018 I posted questions here about my now ex and his old crush. Yesterday morning, he randomnly told me he won't be able to give me time as he has to seek for serious jobs. I accused him of leaving me for his old crush but he didnt respond to the question. He just said he needs a job and he didnt move from Danmark to London to work as assistant/mechanic after spending more than 9000 pounds every year at his university. I tried asking him if he's leaving me for her but he responded with a no and said she has nothing to do with his decision. He also admitted he still has feelings for her but he hasn't decided if he's going to act on it or not. Though he admitted it was love at first sight for both of them and he couldn't forget her. He hasnt gone to his university even though he told her he will be around but he's left his damaged bike there. Why did he dump me? If he's telling the truth? What kind of person is he? He makes these crazy initiatives towards people then takes 2 steps back? Will he get with her but hows that possible when he's not even going there? Link to post Share on other sites
Fruitee Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 None of this makes any sense. Your bf said he dont have time for you and he has feelings for another woman. And your wondering what? If he left you? Girl, you should be the one doing the leaving. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
ExpatInItaly Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 OP, you keep posting these threads and asking virtually the same questions. This one is a little different since he has now ended it definitively with you, but the answers you're going to get will be the same as the last threads: He was not that into you. That is all that matters. The rest is irrelevant. 4 Link to post Share on other sites
MidwestUSA Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 He did you a huge favor, OP. Don't question it, just feel the relief. Good riddance. Link to post Share on other sites
CatMinx Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Dear girl, how do you know what he is or is not saying or doing with her? If you’re going by what he’s telling you..that’s just foolish. As another poster says, he wasn’t that into you anyway. Why not take your time to heal and then find someone who is instead of ruminating? Link to post Share on other sites
Rainah Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 If you continue to throw his ex crush into his face on a regular basis then its no wonder why he ended it. Like some one said he did you a huge favour, time to heal yourself and think of yourself Link to post Share on other sites
smackie9 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Maybe she's going to follow him there....something you wouldn't know about. Or he's had enough and is moving on from the both of you. Link to post Share on other sites

He already dumped you. And he gave you a reason. Is the reason the truth? Who knows. It might be the truth, it might NOT be the truth. He might pursue her. Anyhow, HE dumped you. Move on. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Space Ritual Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Why did he dump me? Why the hell should you care???...as others have posted. HE...DID...YOU...A...FAVOR! Young lady, you may really think we are totally daft, however the reason all of us have been telling you to dump him is because we could see this one coming a mile away. Of course he is going to be with her. He won't be blatant bout it...but he WILL go back to her at some point in the near future. Most of us here have been gaslit the exact same way by our partner or spouse, We were hoping you were really not going to be joining this club. But you have. The heartbreak like you feel right now is very debilitating. But please be assured that you will get through this, and you will be better off because he showed you who he was. Now his ex will have to go through the exact same thing, I encourage you to visit here on this subforum and read some of the stories of people who arrived here. You will be able to see a pattern of how these stories end up. I'm sorry he was such an..... (Insert Insult). But I tell you now one day you are going to be reminded of him by some trigger, like a song or something, and you will look into the mirror and say "What the hell was I thinking?" You feel bad but actually congratulations are in order for you. Because you are yet another step forward in your life. He was not going to be there for the ride, and would have kept you taking those 2 steps back..so screw him! Reflect..grieve if you must... but for not too long. For the rest of your life is just a Sunrise away. Link to post Share on other sites

Zahara Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 But he hasnt gine back to her? How are u so sure he will go back to her at some point in future? He mentioned he still has feelings for her so the potential of him going back to her is there - no one knows if it's an absolute but the potential is there since they both loved each other at one point and probably still do. How do you know they are not dating? Your friend can't be tied to them 24-7 nor can you so you don't know what's going on in his life or hers. He has ended the relationship with you likely because this woman is now in the picture. It has likely caused his old feelings to resurface and used the "job seeking" as an excuse to let you go. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I dont think he likes her. He led her on just like he did to me i think coz he hasnt gone back since talking to her. He went once. They ran into each other but didnt talk as it was in public.

It's pretty disturbing. Do you know what they do during their free time outside of the university? How do you know if they're not meeting for a quiet dinner, or talking on the phone before bed, or catching a movie on a Saturday night? You need to come to terms that this man told you he has feelings for her when he broke up with you. You can't say he doesn't like her when he was very forward with you. You are in deep denial. But you must try to let go. Link to post Share on other sites

And she saw them have their run in but it was in public so neither spoke to each other as its only private chats for them. After that my friend saw her around but not him. And without contact info they cant go out. She was there and heard the whole convo. They didnt exchange nos. Like I said he did say hes unsure whether he should act on it or not. I know he was crazy after her before. Now I dont think so?? Link to post Share on other sites

You're magnifying the little you know. How do you know they didn't share contact information after he ended it with you? Maybe they stay away from each other in public because they know your friends are watching. You speak as if you are on a covert mission tapping their phones and guarding their every movement. Maybe this line of thought helps you avoid facing reality and the pain that comes with it. So you stay in denial pretending as if nothing is going on between them. When in fact anything could be happening between them. Ten days ago he told you he has feelings for her. It doesn't mean he doesn't like her anymore. He may have told you he doesn't know if he will act on it to save your feelings. But all that is irrelevant. He has ended it with you. Time to accept that and move on, regardless of his next move.

Then they had a run in wuth his old crush and he left 10 mins later. I have accepted he ended with me but I doubt he likes her. What guy will talk and never come back for someone he likes so much?

This little bit you know and the little that your friend sees means absolutely nothing. You don't know what happens behind closed doors. Again, I am not sure how else to get this through you. You are not with them 24-7. So stop speculating based on the little you see and accept that whatever happens with him is none of your business anymore. I have accepted he ended with me but I doubt he likes her. What guy will talk and never come back for someone he likes so much?

I know you're feeling rejected and you can't stand the fact that he may want her and you feel devalued but it's all futile. He's told you he has feelings for her so anything can happen -- maybe if you come to accept it and not fight it, you may find yourself in a position of better letting go.

I just know that anyone who likes someone makes an effort which he isnt so i thought hes playing her too. But my friend did say that they met and talk after a long time and he could be evaluating his current life position and his feelings for her . He was always super shy in her case. Like putting himself out in her face hoping she will talk which he never did with me. We got together as we were friends and I liked him.and he seemed to show interest but it was never like he couldnt talk to me or was being shy [ Edited February 28, 2018 by natashalove Link to post Share on other sites

Focus on the fact that the relationship has ended and stop receiving information about him and her. Regardless of what happens with the two of them, you still need to move on. And the first thing you do is stop feeding yourself information. You can keep beating your head against a wall wondering what's going on with him and it will be useless. Try to stay NC, keep out of their business and focus on your healing. Accept that he may want her or he may not want her. It doesn't define your value or worth. It doesn't make her better than you.
