so i met this guy on this site..and he was really awsome..we hit it off instantly...but there was one issue that was the main reason i stopped talking to him...his x...and his insistance on bringing her up every five minutes...i mean i am they were still friends...but i don't want to hear how wonderful she is every five seconds..he would always say..don't worry i won't let her get inbetween us..but in my opinion she was...he would hang up the phone with me to go call her....was i wrong to be bothered by this issue???

You did the right thing. I have been there and I am glad I walk away each and everytime. Eventually they drop who they are with and go back to thier X, and eventually their X becomes their X again.

You did the right thing.

Guys never get over the last girl till they break up with the next girl.
He'll be talking about you to who ever he sees next.

Plus that is a pretty stupid reason to break up with somebody,


[Edited 1/8/2008 6:21:34 PM]

Plus you are only 18, you're gonna fall in love every 30 minutes for the next ten years, so don't worry about it.


[Edited 1/8/2008 6:24:58 PM]

Plus your profile says your a guy.

i understand it was hard for me to get over the last guy i was with but i didn't constantly talk about him...how can you be with someone if you are constantly bringing
up and obviously think about someone else

I think some people can't get over their ex's so it better for us to move on and let them live in past of their ex's ...

you did the right thing. if a guy doesnt get over his x till after the next relationship, its because he jumped into the next relationship too fast. always take the time to get over someone before you move on.

theres no time line for gettin over someone. it can take more than two years. if they're still talking he may never let go.

If she's so wonderful, why break up with her, or did she break up with him?

Good for you, you did the right thing...there are too many guys out there with less issues and of great quality for you to settled for that crap.

You are still young with a lot of life left... You will go through many heartaches and pain. It appears that he never got over his other woman and now he is doing the comparing thing which is normal. Its not right but its normal; therefore grab yourself by your boot straps and move on. This pain you feel is natural; despite their intensity, they eventually pass. They are part of the grieveing process on both party's that attends the loss of important relationship, but they are not necessarily signs of love. Sometimes people erroneouly use the threat of why can't I move on as a way of saying. "I want the relationship to change!" having said that move on and don't look back to see if they are still standing there.
