ex bf = jerk


Question Posted Monday August 6 2007, 11:14 am

Sorry if this is long, but i need to explain some things before i ask the question...

So, here's the story. Me and my boyfriend, now ex, were going out for 4 months. Yet, he was just a real jerk to me sometimes. He treated me like i was just his normal friend. He wouldn't come pick me up or ask me if i needed rides to places. He asked me a couple of times to pay for things, and he would never start conversations. He would do things just to annoy me and at times, he was just plain mean. At first i wanted things to work so i told him a few times he had to change the way he acted, and the first time he said he couldn't change, and the rest he said he'd try but i never really saw a change. I was just fed up and gave up. Anyway, we're not together anymore, but he was my first boyfriend and I'm just scared that this relationship hurt me because now i don't have a great outlook on guys. I want to date again, but i want a good boy who treats me like the center of his world.

Is how my ex acted how all guys act? Or are there some out there that are better? Can anyone give me any hope for the future?!

Thanks! and sorry this was soo long =)

Sounds like this is an issue greater than the guys you choose to date. how is your radar? do you pay attention to red flags? This guy seems emotinally unavailable and abusive. where have you seen or experienced these characteristics before? Examine your relationship with your parents and close relatives. What kind of relationship do you have with them? Are any of them abusive or emotinally unavailable? To answer your question, no all guys aren't like that.

Hmmm, that sounds like my ex!!! Minus the pervertedness. Haha.

Trust me, there are a whole lot of guys out there that are much better than your ex. I have the best guys friends ever. One, we have so much in common that it's not even funny. Another one is like my teddy bear...that's gay. And another is here for me no matter what. There are a lot of sweet guys out there!!!

So forget about your ex and look at other guys. there are much better ones. I promise you with my life and banana pancakes =)

I think that should be a standard equation that should be used in text books. ex bf = jerk. Why? There are 1000 of girls out there [guys too] that feel the same as you. No, not all guys are jerks. Actually, many guys aren't. You just need to find your type. Go on dates & give them a chance. The best boyfriends are guys that were your friend ahead of time. Dating random guys you don't know can lead you into dating jerks. Get to them first & then decide. One bad ex bf shouldn't affect your future dating. Just watch & see who you fall for. Get to know them before jumping into a relationship.

-hope that helped!♥
