Ex Problems


Question Posted Thursday April 29 2010, 6:44 pm

This is super pathetic:
So I dated this guy for three weeks. We only really knew each other for like, a week and a half, but we started things really fast. Everything was going really well and i was super happy. But then randomly two weeks ago, he dumped me and i didn't really get an explanation as to why. It's been two weeks and im STILL stressing about it. I know we barely knew eachother (which is probably why it didnt work out), but its been a while and i still like him. He said we could be friends, but when i try to talk to him he totally blows me off. How can i stop stressing about him and move on? Thanks so much ♥.

Well the other two answers so far are really good reasons as to maybe why it happened so I'll just stick to your questions on it. I'm also assuming that you slept together based on moving really fast so in that case, I think the best thing to do to stop stressing about it is to think of it like this, he doesn't respect you enough to give you a reason why you aren't together anymore therefore he's not really worth your time anyways. If he did respect you he would have told you or he would at least have the courtesy to not blow you off everytime you see him. Just think of it as lessoned learned and take things slower next time and get to know the guy better before putting so much emotion and feeling into it. Not saying to take things slower than a turtle walks necessarily but when you take your time and make sure that you know the guy good and that he knows you good as well then the guy will be a lot more likely to respect you and treat you with the dignity you deserve. Good luck with everything :)

I know NOBODY likes to hear this, but if you mean you slept together, there's your problem. It may sound old fashioned, but a man needs a chase. He needs to conquer. When you give it up so easily he has nothing left to strive for and he's on to the next girl. The only way to make sure a guy is into you for who you are is to wait until you are in a committed relationship before sex. That way the guy has to get to know you, and he'll like you for all the things that you are, instead of just for sex. I've been married for 11 years and my husband and I met in college. To this day he will say that if I had given it up when started dating (we did not have sex until we were engaged) he never would have married me. He was kind of a player, so being the only girl he couldn't sleep with intrigued him, and as he got to know me, he realized he really cared for me, and then it wasn't such a big deal to wait. I know none of this is much of a comfort to you right now. You're still hurting. But it can help you in the future. Just know that every experience is a learning experience.
You need walk away from this one. He's a coward for not being totally honest with you and stringing you along, but its obvious he just used you and now he's over it. It sucks. Its not fair and he's an ass. So do whatever you can to cut all contact with him. Don't call him, text him, email him, just leave it alone. It will hurt at first but I promise, as each day passes it will get easier and easier. You'll be a stronger person for this if you let yourself learn from it. Good luck!

Do you know anything about this guy?...As this could have a big reason to why he may be blowing you off.

The best thing to do is to except the fact that the relationship moved too fast and get over it, You two can remain friends but you will probably experience some awkwardness seeing the both of you don't know each other that well and I'm guessing by moving fast you had sex? Which knowing you two were sexually active will also probably cause awkwardness as well. The hardest part of a breakup is sometimes not knowing the reasons why someone broke up with you, but the moving on process starts when you learn to except the fact that things didn't work. In the future be more careful
