I have been hanging out/dating with this guy for the past month or so, and we had plans to get together and drink tonight to celebrate me being done with my finals. I haven't heard from him in a few days but I thought it was just because he was trying not to bug me while I was studying. So I text him earlier and asked if we were still on for tonight and he wrote back saying that he got back together with his ex and thinks he wants to make it work with her.

 

They broke up 3 months ago and I wasn't even aware that they were talking again. She was cheating on him the and he caught her, why would he go back to her? I don't understand guys!

 

It's not like I was that attached to him, but it still sucks! I think I am more disappointed that I am not not doing anything tonight because I have been studying nonstop (with occasional LS breaks) for the last week straight!

I'm so sorry to hear that SG.:(

 

What an as$. You spend and invest all this time and energy on him and then just like that he decides to get back with her.

 

It sounds like as though he was only using you as a rebound relationship, but I could be wrong.

 

Either way it is his loos. Write this one off and move on.

I agree. It's his loos. Unless he has a great arse, in which case it is probably more your loos. A tough call, really.

 

Congratulations on successfully navigating question time.

when you've been dating someone for 4 wks they have no obligations to you and you have none to them...

 

thats the way it is SG. I've dated women for up to six months and just disappeared with no explanation. If there is no mutual agreement of exclusivity then there is nothing.

Really? You could have been having sex three times a day, for a grand total of 84 mind-blowing encounters. And that doesn't include oral.

That doesn't mean it is right.......

 

I'm sure if that happened to you, you would be in an uproar about it.

 

I am surprised that he was honest with her....

 

Its not right and inconsiderate IMO. Like I said, its his loss and her gain.

You guys are awesome!! I know who I can count on to make me feel better :love:

 

Cheers Riddler! I am hoping to catch one of my few friends left in this city (it's now SPRING BREAK!) after she gets off work but before she gets to the bar... then she'll drink with me. If I were 21 already this would be so much easier!

 

Alpha I never said that he had any obligation to me... I just said it sucks, I am really not that attached to him so I'm not really that hurt, just more frustrated that I have bee looking forward to tonight since my life went to beyond hectic last week!

 

Magic... or Tragic... you always make me laugh! Thanks!

I'm flying out of here tomorrow morning... I'm thinking it might be a little cold to go whitewater rafting, although I would love to go! I'll have to see what it's like when I get there. How is your break going?

Oh, you are still "wishing you were on the beach"? I thought that you were already in Utah. I'm not sure what the weather conditions are, but whatever you do, have fun.:)

 

My break was last week. It was uneventful and short unfortunately. Thats what happens when you are trying to save cash.

I have known that he has gone out with other girls within the last month and I could care less, he has told me that he has but not because he had to, because he chose to be honest with me. I thought that we could possibly be headed toward a relationship because we have been spending most of our free time together up until last weekend when I told him I needed some tome to study so that I can graduate this year, but I wouldn't have been too surprised if it didn't work out either. Like I said I am not really attached to him.

 

I am surprised, well shocked actually, that he got back together with his ex. He has said over and over again that he wouldn't get back together with her, so I wasn't expecting that message today. It's his choice if he wants to try and make it work with the girl who has cheated on him at least once and probably will again.

why on God's earth SG would you be spending most of your free time with someone you've only known for 28 days??? Sounds to me like you have more invested in this than he did. For your next relationship SG, I recommend you take baby steps. :)

Good on you for taking it so well SG, seriously. When the guy I was dating left me for his ex, I was devastated. And he also was suspiciously adamant that he would never get back together with her.

 

I think both of our exes got their egos crushed really bad by their philandering exes. And seriously, I think when his ex offered a second chance, my ex could not resist because he thought it would mend his damaged ego.

 

And guess what, it didn't work out between them. The idiot never had the balls or the brains to try and get back together with me :rolleyes: . Ah well.

 

Like I said , I think you're handling this really well. I wish I had read this while I was going through that break up. You could have helped me snap out of a bad spell.

I would be pissed at the fact that he told you in a text message. We are getting so lazy these days... what next? file for divorce at McDonalds?

Thanks Kamille! I think you are right on with his ex boosting his ego. I am also pretty sure that it won't last between them. I was making bets with my friend last night on how long it will take before he is calling me again. But what he doesn't know is that I am not going to be there, I am not stupid enough to start anything with him again! I hope things are getting better for you now :)

Yeah I was pissed that he texted me... I think he knows that if he had called I would have given him crap for it and probably talked him out of it, because he has told me all of the crap she did.

 

I can see the advertisements now, "File for divorce while you kids enjoy a happy meal at your local McDonalds" :lmao: :lmao:

their loos. Totally their loos. ;)

 

My bet is your ex and his ex will last three weeks at the most. And yes he likely will try and come back. I think my ex kind of did but in such a underhanded way I could not take him seriously. I think he wanted me to be all over him and broken hearted. I now believe the guy has serious ego issues that predated his ex. I mean, why else would he have gone back to her? Let's just say when he did half-heartedly try to see if I was still into him, ut was discouraging because it showed he totally didn't value the time we had had together as much as I did. Moral of the story: he obviously isn't the right guy for me.

 

And thanks, yes I am feeling much better now. His investments in being the homme fatal who broke my poor little heart totally turned me off.

Sorry to hear SG.. But like Rids said, it's your gain and his loos! :)

 

It's also better that it happened earlier in the relationship, before you developed more feelings from him.

 

But man, what a jackass for texting you!

 

Take care and have a drink on me :)

:laugh:

So apparently I have created a new word. Loos!

 

Its not the greatest word but its mine.
