axl Posted December 14, 2023 Posted December 14, 2023 Hi all, so I broke up with this girl in person about 6 months ago after it seemed she became slightly different and distant feeling. We talked often as friends for a couple of weeks and then I told her I didn't want to hear from her because she started acting like she broke up with me... It was unusual and weird I thought. 5 months later she reappeared and messaged me on Facebook, basically saying she purposely changed and had been faking most of the affection for me during our 2.5-month fling. She said she almost broke up with me but was too afraid I'd argue and said she was a coward, so she purposely let me do it. I never yelled at her or laid a hand on her. My question is: has this ever happened to anyone or is it more a "saving face" gesture in front of a supposed new bf? Something else? Any input, experiences, or questions are welcome :) Thanks!
basil67 Posted December 14, 2023 Posted December 14, 2023 Sorry this happened and kudos to you for not putting up with her bad behaviour for too long. And Yeah, some people are too gutless to do the breakup, so they act badly to make the other do it. It’s the act of a coward and you’re well rid of her.

What was the breakup about? How old is she? Probably not a good idea to keep chatting after a break-up especially if you broke up with her and she started acting like you broke up. It seems like a power struggle. Who broke up with who type of thing. People manufacture breakups all the time. It's manipulative. Probably a good idea to put the past in the past and discontinue dragging out the breakup. Delete and block her from ALL your social media and messaging apps.
d0nnivain Posted December 14, 2023 Posted December 14, 2023 No I can't say that ever happened. Even if she felt like that -- that she had to take steps to get you to break up with her -- the fact that she told you this is just awful. What a mean small person. Be happy you are no longer dating such a manipulative person who fakes a relationship & is a personal coward.
