Not really dating but help help help help… my ex cheated on me repeatedly including with the girl who he is now seeing ‘officially’. Heard it through the grapevine she is going on holiday on the same day as me next week to the same place… where we live has one tiny regional airport so I cannot see how she’s not on my flight! I will try not to kill her but also what if they’re going away together?! Anxiety is working massively massively overtime I cannot be trapped in a plane with one or other of them!!!

I have to say I think you’re being a little unfair on this girl - I would say that you could slate her all the live long day if she knew that your ex had a gf, but you’ve already stated she didn’t.

She’s just fallen for him like you did, but isn’t even in the fortunate position you are to realise she’s picked a dud who is a cheating arsehole. Cut her some slack -it’s likely she’s going to find out the hard way like you did.

Other than that enjoy your holiday! 😎
ah but I also didn’t mention that she’s been responsible for sending me some of the rudest most disrespectful messages that I’ve ever come across… trying to explain to me why me and him didn’t work out… and bad mouthing me to my friends (luckily they’ve even said their loyalties are with me). So really she deserves everything she gets!
 

Thank(space)you

How old are the kids? You could say I think one of the kids was having a joke at (his name)’s expense sending me this silly text message and screenshot it.

It is up to her how she takes it and you’re not throwing him under the bus directly - more like giving him a prod towards the road.

I would not leave it a week to share this.
The kids are 9, 7 and 1.
What????
Oh my days, what a horrible position he has put you in. There is no right or wrong way to handle this. Just be prepared though, you might lose a friend.

I'm quite friendly with my frirnds partners but I learned not to be too friendly with them, the single friend always ends up being the baddie
This is what I'm scared of

The thing that literally has always stopped me asking guys to meet is I feel like I’m begging them to see me. My rational mind knows that not the case but then I get really paranoid. I never “show my hand” as it were...when I’ve had break ups etc I’ve always killed them with kindness etc..I don’t like people to think I need them...I know it’s a stunted emotional growth thing but I can’t seem to overcome it?
Hence being able to contact my ex, he genuinely doesn’t know he hurt me I even joked with him what the completion was like on match.. I’m like a closed book 🧐

Did she know that he was in a relationship?

Lovely gesture from your friend. You seem to have good support among your friends.

You're not actually thinking about him though, you're thinking about the situation and the outcome. It's understandable
Alas just not my "best friend" of 25 years. Telling me stuff like oh you'll find the one and other cliché shit is NOT HELPFUL lol

I know but I'm genuinely not looking for anyone. I've had someone in the past who text me every morning/during day etc and he dumped me aswell saying no spark. This guy said he deleted apps/we were only seeing each other etc etc like a bloody week ago!! I feel so used....again. I'm just gonna resign to single life as I cannot get hurt and guess that means I'm to bow out of this thread too
Don’t bow out I’m not on the apps, never taken a selfie in my life so no chance

judge judy dealing with a case, a couple met via POF, he said they were exclusive, she discovered he was still on the apps, his excuse, he couldn’t work out how to leave 🙄

Right, I'd be the very one to tell others on this thread to calm down and not over think stuff but here it goes.
Mr Perfect messaged me last night, we only exchanged a few messages. And when the chat was over he was still online for ages afterwards.
He hasn't messaged today ...yet, which is fine.
But what's everyone's attitude when it comes to messaging. What do you all expect?
Also after a first date when they have asked to see you again, when would you expect them to bring that up again.
Also when is it too soon to sleep with someone...he's so hot 😂😂
No such thing as too soon once you’re comfortable with the timeline yourself! I’m no help on the contact front (as I’m so militant about it) but others will tell you not to overthink it so…..don’t overthink it 🙂

It’s not about becoming a stepford wife 😂 It’s about how to keep someone obsessed with you.
Yeah but some things are a bit out there. Ignoring people etc. Don't tell your therapist struck me 🤣

Be blonde slim and wear hooped earrings and a gold watch lol

I think your ex and my ex might be the same person. Guys are pricks! Don’t let it ruin your holiday.
How do I get through the flight without being banned from Ryanair for life is the question 😂 she’s only one of three I know about…

I know exactly how you feel, I take things to heart badly too. The last guy really effected me to the point I broke down at work several times and I've never done that! Everything was fine with him one minute then the next he was pulling away. Long story short first of all he blamed me saying I couldn't handle him being busy with work and it wasn't fair to me (no problem with someone being busy, I do however have a problem with someone when they're doing the slow fade with you and its blantley obvious) then the next message he said he doesn't have time for a relationship and we both want different things. That really broke me because I let my guard down with him and told him some things I only share when I'm comfortable with someone..really believed he was different 🙄 I don't really have many friends either so couldn't even distract myself with them 😫 I really hope you're okay ❤
Thank you. I'm the same I shared alot with him because I felt that I could and he made me feel safe but yeah the last week was just silence and I didn't understand what changed. I was accepting of his time with his kids and never wanted that to change because I knew they'd always be priority as they should. I only have a few friends but most of then were too busy or whatever. I probably should have stayed in and just allowed myself to cry last night. Had a good cry driving home earlier and I'm just frustrated and feeling lost again

It's too soon for the 'stood up' joke 😭😭😭😭😂
Video call me during the night out 😂
Sweet lord how insensitive am I 🙈 I'm so sorry!
