Should I still be friends with my ex or just leave her alone completely
Question Posted Wednesday July 6 2011, 11:44 pm
Me and my ex gf were in a long distance relationship for like 5 months and we decided that it was to hard to keep a long distance relationship at our age, were only 17 and couldn't see each other in person, so like less than a week after we broke up she had sex with a another boy and she knew i wanted us to loose our virginity together but i guess she couldn't wait. so I started to think that she was talking to this boy for the longest and was secretly cheating on me, but i don't know for sure,but were just friends right now and she texts me everyday, so should i just ignore her and leave her alone or just be her friend cause i don't think i'll get back with her any time soon.
Here is the thing with guys, too: we are competing for some kind of dominance and the thought that you may have been cuckolded by another male is making you feel like a loser. However, you have to keep in mind that your chances of ever marrying your teenage sweetheart is just about nil.
One other thing: you can only control you. You cannot control others, especially when they are a fair distance away. Therefore, worrying about stuff you can't control is just wasted time, energy and emotion. Try to learn from everything you encounter, including relationships, keep yourself in a position where you have all the options open to you (that means getting an education, not being in debt or addicted to drugs and not knocking a chick up) and keep moving forward.

Do what your heart says. If you need time to yourself then take it. Do the fun things you get to do at 17, you don't want to be 27 like me and look back and think what a waste it was to stress her. If you can be friends in the future(which I think you will cause you are very mature and rational) then thats great. In the meantime your young date around. OH and don't lose your virginity to the first girl you date, it's special when done with true feelings.Good Luck and stay sweet!!!! (trust me that will be an advantage in the future) [ dee0121's advice column | Ask dee0121 A Question ]

I wish all the best for you [ YoungMommy's advice column | Ask YoungMommy A Question ]
Never2bAlone answered Thursday July 7 2011, 1:09 am: I strongly feel that she manipulated the situation knowing she had someone else all along just as you suspected. I am so sorry you are going through this. I've been there and I know how much it hurts. You are such a wonderful guy that any girl would be lucky to have. I think it's incredibly sweet of you to want to lose your virginity with your girlfriend and waiting to make it special. Just be thankful that you didn't lose it to a lier who had someone else on the sideline. I think right now you should put a hault on your friendship with her. It's unreasonable for her to expect you to remain friends after such a heart breaking experience but I think once you have given it some time and moved on to a girl that deserves you, I see no reason why you couldn't give her a call and remind her of what she once had but to see that you are now happy with someone else. Mark my words she will be sorry. [ Never2bAlone's advice column | Ask Never2bAlone A Question ]
