We broke up because he said he didn't want a relationship and wasn't ready/mature for one. We dated 15 months. He's 17 and I'm 18. I went above and beyond for him and he did nothing for me. I treated him great an was the sweetest gf. He was a bad bf and others, including our family, said that too. I'm just hurt because I could've ended it months ago due to him always being busy and stuff. But I didn't because I liked him so much and he made me believe he did too and that we had potential. I led the relationship. We were each others first bf/gf. A week before we broke up he said he wanted to be with me. Idk what changed his mind the next couple days. He said he thought about the break up for a week or something and he told his friends he felt bad...I'm over him in the liking part, but I still have anger and bitter feelings towards him.

 

Like when I think about how he walked all over me cause he knew I'd stay with him through his crap and of how poorly he treated me. He liked someone right after we broke up and that hurt that he could get over me so fast and do it in front of me! When we broke up he said he still did like me but idk if he was just saying that. He's a different guy now and is nice to everyone except me. He avoids me and kind of acts like a jerk. He's trying to be outgoing and gain all these friends and acts like he's hot stuff. He was very introverted while we dated so idk if he's doing this on purpose cause I'm the outgoing one and he's trying to be like me or make me jealous?

 

He thought I was flirting with guys a week after we broke up (which I didn't think I was) and he told his sister that made him upset because he then thought I didn't like him while we dated. He was supposed to go away all summer and that might've had to do with the break up since his family said he didn't want to do that to me even tho we agreed we were worth it....but now he's not going away so I'll have to see him. :/ Most of our troubles came from him being busy but now that he isn't I feel like we could've worked things out or talked about it but I guess he wasn't old enough to work through it. I feel like I wasn't worth it to him. I hope he realizes what he lost when he's older.

 

How can I get over this turd and let go? I'm so mad and confused on how he could just let us go when he said in the past he'd be so upset if we broke up. He was crazy about me. He knew I was unhappy with us sometimes so I don't know if he was doing this to my benefit since I needed a man instead of a boy and he couldn't offer what I needed. We agreed we wouldn't talk to the opposite sex on purpose in front of each other but I guess that's out the window. He blocked me from his facebook friend list and removed all photos. We had a good relationship but now he's a douche and no one sees that part of him! :/ How can I not get mad when I see his face? I feel stupid for falling for him. I feel like he just shrugged me off his shoulder. He said he wasn't in the right spot when we went out because he partly did it because I liked him back. I feel played. I'm glad it ended when it did tho because I'm glad I didn't waste any more time with him. I'm just pissed I held on for so long for nothing!

 

 

It's easy to get over him since he's a different guy now but it's still hard to make him a stranger when we like grew up together while we dated. I miss the old us sometimes and hate what we became. How can I not get jealous when he talks to that other girl he likes? How can I not get mad when he talks to my family acting like nothing happened and he ignores me?
