One of the persons is always the one who is wrapped around the other ones finger.

3) another good rule is to ONLY date someone who follows you around...same way you choose a pet at a pet store. the one who comes to YOU is the one you should be with. that sounds bad, but if you don't do that, you will end up just being a doormat.

4) find a guy that nobody wants and you can be assured you will have no issues. same rule applies for guys looking for women. If you date a "Celebrity" type of person, then you have to accept the complete and total nightmare that is involved with that. celebrities are fun to watch, but not to get involved with.

good luck.....keep in mind you have options. dont allow yourself to let this guy play jedi mind tricks on you. Just IGNORE him and move on. the more you ignore, the more they will disappear as if they don't exist.

Adios

If everyone did #3 - then no one would have a date.....
just sayin...

I got off topic.

The OP girl sounds wise. She probably will pick a better guy next time due to this experience.

JETG · 09-08-2011, 04:18 PM

Tessa. I do agree it does go both ways. I was just speaking from experience. Most of the women lately I know/have gone out with. Grip about how bad there ex is and either A they get bak with them, like things will change. Or B they go and date someone with the same issues or type of person. Just never really understood this, and yes this applys to both men and women.

He was just trying to get a reaction out of you. just ignore the tool bag and keep living the dream

I am recently divorced, and I will promise you that the best decision I made was to ignore her. I didnt return her hateful texts, emails, voicemails or anything. Even after all she did to try and stab at me while I did the best i could to maintain calm and polite.

With that being said, do what I did and swear off actual relationships for a while... MUCH easier this way, lol.

Exactly what I have done!

Swearing off relationships doesnt work I know. And for what Tessa stated good girls/boys always like bad boys/girls. It always seems to be that way.

I would kill for that frequency.

Yeah, some people don't even realize how good they've got it...

I'd marry my Camaro if I could

I already did, just don't tell the girlfriend

Okay here's my $.02. You need to decide once and for all whether you want to be with this guy. You haven't yet, and that is why he can still "get to you" and why you were bothered enough to make the post. You still care for him, at least a little bit. You may have closed the door, but you left the windows cracked a little. You know it, and he knows it.

You have to ask yourself why. Why don't you really want to end it. Are you afraid you won't find anyone better? Are you unsure whether or not you deserve better? Etc. Don't answer those for us here, just answer them for yourself. Once you are sure you are done with him you will do all the things necessary for this guy to get the message and leave you alone. Until then, you are just still playing the game with him.

Good luck sweetie.

But tell me why, guys, it's necessary to contact your ex to tell them you're going to a concert with another girl but there is nothing to it and it's just friends? WTF? Why put me through all that hell, and then when I dump you, keep trying to sniff around saying you'll change (when you've said it 50 times before and you NEVER do)? Of course it's my fault partially for humoring him and not changing my cell number but really... Why does he BOTHER? Is it the challenge factor or am I just missing something?

Whatever you do...DO NOT GO BACK TO HIM. It might sound like common sense...but when it comes to relationships, that all goes out the window. I'm sure most of you can relate.

Every time he calls or texts you, just send him photos of male genitalia.

He'll stop calling and texting
