Dontunderstan Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 Hi everyone. I have kind of a long story so please bare with me. I met this incredible woman online. We were together for about four months. It wasn't long and I developed feelings for her which isn't like me at all. Her ex had just broken up with her for the second time and she was never over her, which I was aware of. They were best friends of about three years and decided to date. In the eight months they dated they broke up twice, her ex being the one who broke it off both times. Her ex also started dating someone else immediately after the first break up, and was also the reason for the second break up. We didn't consider ourselves in a committed relationship but talked every single day and she knew how I felt about her. She was starting to develop those feelings for me too. About a month ago her ex showed up at her door after being broken up for four months. She was there to drop off some of her stuff. Well, they got talking and decided they wanted to give it another chance. She says she feels like they never got to give the relationship a fair chance both times so this one last time she has to see it through. She also said she still really cares about me and doesn't want to lose me as her friend. I haven't talked to her on the phone since then (three weeks ago), but we've texted briefly everyday. The thing is, I'm happy for her because that's all I ever wanted for her, but at the same time it's like the universe is playing a cruel practical joke on me. I told her I have no doubt that we would work, but it's almost like the timing was off and she agreed. WHat do you all think? How often does getting back together for a third time work? I know she's meant to be in my life, it's this feeling that I have that I can't explain. Any thoughts would be appreciated. UPDATE: We have talked on the phone several times over the past couple weeks. We have ended up talking for 2-4 hours each time. I'm so confused.
