reader Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 I had a good cry today and am back on track. I spoke to a friend about the whole back pocket scenerio and she states over and over again, the guy is a control freak and told me that the only reason he didn't want me to call, "because his ex girlfriend that he is sort of back with would freak out", is because he doesn't respect women, and that the only, only way I should ever contact him again is to tell him thanks but no thanks and act as if he does not exist, and what kind of guy lies to someone he wants in his life? She told me that he loves the idea that I am thinking of him, and will try to get me hooked again the second he thinks I'm letting go. She said when this happened to her, she waited until he called, told him she'd call him back, and she just never called back. She says its hard for people like us to comprehend because we give, and people like him take. She also said that is why his gf of 5 years is having second thoughts. She said count your blessings it was only an emotional sucking in and do not look back. I have smart and very good friends. reader
slubberdegullion Posted October 17, 2005 Posted October 17, 2005 Reader; It's been my experience that there are essentially two kinds of people in this world: givers and takers. From your experience, it seems pretty clear that your ex is a taker, while you're a giver. Baz is right. Rely on your smart and good friends for support, both here on LS and in your personal life. And move on. Good luck.
