Ex left me for another girl after 5 years. He recently got back in touch, crying and saying he thinks he made a mistake.

Background:
The last 2 years weren't great - full of arguments, not seeing...

Boyfriend and I were together for 5 years, and we're both in our mid twenties. In that 5 years, we've faced various stressful and upsetting situations, such as a parent passing away, and a parent...

I can sympathise with you, I'd probably be feel the way in your situation. Sometimes when you're right in the middle of an unpleasant situation, your mind can wander, and if you're anything like me,...

Thank you so much for this, we've been arguing for about a week now, and he just doesn't see my point of view. It's so nice to know that I'm understood here and that there's some confirmation that...

The reason I've been so upset about it is because when we first got together, he was chatting inappropriately to a girl online, twice. He did this with this particular girl a lot before we met.

Thank you for your reply. It's taken a huge weight off my shoulders, I guess I do have more of an issue with the girls. I've felt like I've been going crazy with insecurity, so it's nice to know that...

Hi,

Been with my boyfriend 4 years. He recently has become closer to two of his female co-workers; one single who mingles a lot and one with a boyfriend who also works there.

I'll admit, he's...

I don't know how many times I searched for things like this when me and my ex broke up. It's all just part of the motions. It's been a week. You want her back. She knows this. That is all she needs...

There was a sex education programme on telly recently where it discussed this. It was surprising to find out that what one would call a small penis, would actually be much bigger when erect. I mean...

As others have said, the age 'issue' is nothing. Ignore it. A couple of years here or there isn't a big deal.

She's adjusting to a new life. Being single again. She has already admitted that she...

I've been in this exact position. My long story short - we were together a year and everything was perfect- no arguments etc. His ex who finished with him 6 months prior to meeting me suddenly gets...

It's a toughie. I really don't mean to sound patronising, but you have to remember that she is older.

It sounds like she's made it a lot easier on herself because she has been open and has told...

As someone mentioned on your first post, it's more your girlfriend's problem than yours.
As long as you didn't actively encourage this girl, you have done nothing wrong. You didn't respond to her...

I'm assuming you are in a LDR?

I would act like it doesn't bother me. If he wants to talk to you, he knows where you are. He's proabably loving the fact that it bothers you, because it shows him...

I don't think it's a gender thing, I think it's based more on the individual themselves.

Stereotypically, I think women don't get over a break-up quicker, I read somewhere that women often get...

Yeh it's not just guys though, I was silly when I was in the middle of it all. I had no idea what to do or think about anything, the only thing I did know was that I didn't want to lose him. Even...

No worries, glad I could help. As others have said on here, I think you should distance yourself from her. I know its probably not what you want to do but you seem to know that it is probably the...

Firstly it seems like the problem is that you are so used to her, she is the only thing you know, and you seem to have put her up on a pedastal. It's almost as if your idea of love is her. that there...

I read this and I felt like I was reading my post back. My ex didn't move on that quick but he is now with someone else. It's a horrible feeling isn't it?!We stopped talking two months ago too but we...

Thanks for your reply, cmacattack1, I think you gave me advice before too, so thank you.

It kinda is, as silly as it sounds. Though I know I couldn't date anyone yet cos I know I'm not ready. It...

Yeah, my ex was my 2nd bf though I do consider this to be my first major break up. I was never this bad over my first bf, I found moving on easier, didnt really dwell on it, cos I think I knew he was...

I littered these boards at the start of the year with my relationship problem and greatly appreciate the advie everyone gave me - my bf of 11 months wasn't over his ex. I ended things with him in...
