Confused. We broke up, twice. It was an awful experience, a long term relationship, back a while ago I thought he would be my husband. I felt like my soul got sucked out and I died for a while when it ended. Anyway I called break with full intentions of just having some time apart, he didn't want this so I stayed. 6 months down the track he broke up with me, it hurt, bad. So I moved out. Then he strung me along for a few months and he came crawling back, and I moved back in and it only lasted a few weeks. Then we mutrally and respectfully called it quits, and I moved out of my home, again. It was a hard time. I've been re-assessing my life being 27 and single, and doing the best to move on over the past 5 months. I deleted Facebook long ago so don't have to worry about that type of torture. I changed cars and became anonymous which I have enjoyed. Friends and family say I'm the best and happiest they have seen me. Anyway I got a missed call at 1am the other morning, which I ignored, obviously a drunken call, then a text the night after asking if I was at the beach. I had a few drinks so replied yea, as I was. Then just last night, after 5 months asks me a big favour to help look after the dog we used to co-own whilst he goes on an overseas trip? What the f*** is this about? Is he just a Jerk? how is this my problem? I can't even drive past the old house let alone go there! and feed the poor dog?! Who probably misses me and wonders why I left. He took ownership of the dog, why ask me when his family or friends can do this. Is he confused or just a selfish prick for asking. It's done my head in thinking about it. I just replied it wouldn't be good for me or the dog, no hard feelings. He responded with a sad face text. Sigh. Think I'll just let it go, even though I miss him like crazy down under and not over him yet. Feeling vunerable. Close friends and family have said to f*** him off and said how dare he ask this of me.......

Good for you. You held onto your dignity, and you had the strenght and the courage to tell him where to go. Proud of you!

It is just so bizarre, when they just act as if nothing has happened, as if you are one of his friends. Feed the dog????

 

I have been through a similar situation, and I thought I will be very very upset for ages after this breakup. And instead I feel happier too. It's like all this time and energy I have put into salvaging our relationship I now can spend on ME. My life has just turned around.

 

Don't give in for the craving, you are much better off without him. ;)
