Return of the Ex!

Heyo guys!

Anyway you probably remember all the stories with me ex. To recap, we were going out in our last year of high school and the following summer, but she went away for Uni. We stuck together for 1st year (long-distance), then summer came again, all good, but we decided to break up when she left for 2nd year.

During Xmas break we got back together for 3 days, since I was leaving to Sri Lanka for vacation.

Anyway about a week ago she told me she met someone and they were going out. It was weird at first.....but I replied "right on", I wanted to be supportive, a friend, etc. It was weird to be honest, you know, but, it's time to move on obviously :lol No biggie I thought.

The next day though we start talking about this upcoming summer, how fun it'll be since she's coming home for summer as per usual. Anyway she got to talking about "us", and if we'd get back together, if it'd be weird...

I was confused. I asked her, "but aren't you with someone right now..?".

She said yes, but she wasn't planning on a long-distance thing with that guy.

Anyway, I proceeded to get angry :lol I refuse to be with a girl who'll just go from one guy to the next. I thought I knew my ex, pretty fucked up this situation.

The sad part? Of course, I wish I could be with her - we only broke up because of the distance to be honest. But before any of this happened, I always told myself I wouldn't let us get back together in summer, though I doubt it would've worked anyway. But now, yeah, I still wish we could be together, but I'm really not going to let myself. I'm like insulted at the same time, that she'd think about us getting together, while she's going out with some other guy.

So, am I right in feeling insulted / not wanting to get back together? What do you guys think? I told her I was sorry for overreacting when I told her I didn't want to get back together, well it was mostly in my delivery though I won't really elaborate on that :lol But I still told her, "we're not getting back together".

Stick to the no mang. That way you'll be the only man on GAF not making horrible horrible relationship decisions.

Thanks guys :p I just need some justification, someone looking in from the outside at my decision.

It's good not to get back together in the first place regardless, since she'd just leave again come September.

It's sorta annoying though because I prefer being single (too busy, esp. with 2 jobs, one fulltime, this summer), while she'll always be doing whatever.

yeah dude, a person has to stick up for what they feel is right, whether or not some one else even if it's a majority of some one elses disagree. You do what you feel is best and don't get drunk around her or else you'll probably 'get back together'.

Yeah very true.

I just, don't know if I'm telling her the correct way. Like she might start thinking things that aren't true.

What I mean is, when I tell her I don't want to get back together b/c it'd be like she's going from one guy to the next, she might start thinking she's a super-horrible person, etc.. To her credit, she told me that ever since she started going out with this guy, it's only made her miss *me* like crazy, thus her wondering what'd happen to us this summer.

So, it's like she's innocent, and I feel bad for feeling the way I do - insulted. I just sorta feel bad for her new bf.

But then again, I don't get why they even got together 2 weeks before exams, esp. since they knew they'd be going different places in summer. But whatever, that's not what we're discussing.

So the final verdict - I'll stick to my guns, I don't want to get back together. I think I should tell her though, that yeah it hurt when she told me that she was thinking about us while going out with someone else....but I should elaborate and say that it wasn't her fault for doing that.

Correct? I promise we won't get back together! :lol

Maybe I'll find someone else, but I don't want a relationship. No time, and I'd rather spend my money at the arcade for now :lol

It's a kind of fishhhh...


*ahem* on a more serious note, sounds like a really emotionally tough situation. Honestly one of the few reasons I'm "glad"(yeah right) I've avoided relationships. How do you deal with shit like this?

I have a friend who was in a relationship when his grilfriend went away for University. They lasted 3-4 months and broke it off for reasons unknown to me.

And then she came home for Christmas. And well...they've been back together ever since. This girl wasn't sluttin' around, though, so your best bet is definitely to drop this.

My ex isn't a slut by the furthest stretch of the imagination either. I keep feeling like I should say sorry for being so harsh, I dunno.

PM it to each other, please! Honestly it's a supermean (but funny) picture. Maybe you guys haven't been in my position, but it truly does hurt me to see it, and I'm really carefree about most things.

No offense, but if you don't want to see that picture, you shouldn't keep posting threads about your girlfriend, or ex girlfriend, or whatever she is. Seriously, this is what, the 4th thread about her you've made? We've gotta have our fun if we're forced to tolerate this.
