Sorry to hear you're feeling down. So, sending you lots of loveHi everyone, feel silly posting this as it’s not really an “ex” but I’ve been feeling so down the last few days, a guy ive been seeing, and really hit it off with, broke things off as he realised he’s not over his ex (a long term relationship and messy break up), and he’s realised he’s actually not ready to see or even speak to anyone. He said all these things about being excited to see me, to take me to all these places, and he’s never connected to anyone like he did with me. I met some of his friends as well which made memories flood back and he realised he’s not ready for anyone to feel the gap.
I do genuinely believe he meant all of it and it’s just awful timing, he was teary and seemed so frustrated, but I’m just so so gutted because I feel like we had something. We are now not speaking and I just feel so sad and lost lol
thank youSorry to hear you're feeling down. So, sending you lots of love
I know it hurts just now, and I'm glad he was honest with you instead of stringing you along, but it's better you know now and not a lot further down the road, where things could have gotten really messy.
You're worth so much more than to be someone's rebound or gap filler. You deserve someone who will make you their one and only.
Can I ask how long you guys were together?
Honestly you are better off out of it. He’s still got feelings for his ex, it would never have ended well, he would have done you dirty and dropped you for her eventually. You are better off out of it now before you got in deeper. It sucks but you’ll be ok - give yourself a week or so to feel a bit crap, watch some films, have a few drinks etc and then pick yourself up and crack on.thank youwe were only seeing each other a couple of months but I had the best time and, before he realised all this on the weekend (all happened pretty abruptly) we had nothing but an amazing and really lovely time together. I think he panicked but ultimately I do really miss hearing from him as I think things could’ve been great
Big hugs. Don't let him make you into a yoyo while he tries to decide what he wants.I broke up with my partner last week, neither of us really wanted it I don’t think but he had reasons. I haven’t slept, haven’t got out of bed and I’ve hardly ate at all since then. I’m totally heartbroken but now he wants to meet me tomorrow and I’m hopeful that it will be good news but trying not to get my hopes up.
apologies for the grammar, I keep rewording and it still reads terribly!
Agree. Don’t allow him to call all the shots. It’s hard to give advice without knowing that much but if he’s backed out of the relationship then don’t allow him to fuck you around going forwards. He’s either in or out - don’t put up with any “I need some time/it’s not you it’s me/I need a break” bullshit.Big hugs. Don't let him make you into a yoyo while he tries to decide what he wants.

Be strong and don't listen to shit. Don't let him have his cake and eat it.I broke up with my partner last week, neither of us really wanted it I don’t think but he had reasons.

When you say you are back together, what has happened to resolve the situation?? Why did you split up and what’s changed to bring you back together??Thank you all, we’re back together... but I’m kinda expecting something bad to happen?
I really want to tell you guys for opinions because I haven’t told anyone irl, but the reasons are too specific.When you say you are back together, what has happened to resolve the situation?? Why did you split up and what’s changed to bring you back together??
Just generalise them a bit?I really want to tell you guys for opinions because I haven’t told anyone irl, but the reasons are too specific.
I understand this so much, I found out end of January my husband had a month long affair and although we’re trying to save the marriage I’m always on edgeThank you all, we’re back together... but I’m kinda expecting something bad to happen?
I don't blame you! Can I ask how you found it? Did you catch him out? Or did he confess of his own accord?I understand this so much, I found out end of January my husband had a month long affair and although we’re trying to save the marriage I’m always on edge
I’d had a gut feeling for a while and already checked his phone when he was asleep, this one particular night I couldn’t sleep the gut instinct was so strong and I reasoned with my self if I find nothing I’ll fall asleep and I checked his deleted pics (on iPhone) and then slowly I could feel my blood running cold, I woke him up and said how many times did you sleep with “name” I honestly expected him to say he didn’t and he said 3 times, I told him he was out by 8am (this was 3am). Some days were a normal couple and other days I honestly think of leaving. He’s the type you’d never ever expect it from everyone was as shocked as me.I don't blame you! Can I ask how you found it?

Sorry to hear that. But glad you trusted your gut instinct, it's there for a reason.I’d had a gut feeling for a while and already checked his phone when he was asleep, this one particular night I couldn’t sleep the gut instinct was so strong and I reasoned with my self if I find nothing I’ll fall asleep and I checked his deleted pics (on iPhone) and then slowly I could feel my blood running cold, I woke him up and said how many times did you sleep with “name” I honestly expected him to say he didn’t and he said 3 times, I told him he was out by 8am (this was 3am).

If you hadn’t checked his phone, he would have carried on. It wasn’t a drunken fumble or one off mistake, it was deliberate infidelity and deceit. You’ve taken him back and honestly, if he’s done it once and you’ve essentially forgiven him and taken him back he will do it to you again.I’d had a gut feeling for a while and already checked his phone when he was asleep, this one particular night I couldn’t sleep the gut instinct was so strong and I reasoned with my self if I find nothing I’ll fall asleep and I checked his deleted pics (on iPhone) and then slowly I could feel my blood running cold, I woke him up and said how many times did you sleep with “name” I honestly expected him to say he didn’t and he said 3 times, I told him he was out by 8am (this was 3am).

Agree! By forgiving a cheater and taking him back, you're essentially setting the tone on how you expect to be treated and what you will accept going forward. It's not a good foundation for a relationship that's supposed to be founded on trust and respect.If you hadn’t checked his phone, he would have carried on.
