    The ring isn't an engagement ring, btw. It's just his ring which he made me take and "wear as long as you love me".

    I'm wearing no jewellery. Grrrrrrrr.

    Funny enough, that's the best thing he could have done for you subconsciously or not.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Standard stuff for immature types. Life will knock the edges off that in time.
    He'll possibly read this, then text me informing me how hurt he is that I think such things.
    Lack of self awareness. Always a good one that.

    Take your f**cking ring back, and find some weak little bitch to push around, asshole.
    Ouch even I felt that one.:D

    Bad plan. If you dumped them it's just selfish to keep them around and if they dumped you you'll hang around with the hope for something more in the back of your mind. Either way baaaaad plan.

    My gawd you're never going to meet a partner if you bad mouth every ex you've been with so publicly, ok you got hurt, we all do but if you need to talk to someone about it do it with a close friend, in private!

    It's times like this I'm glad I'm gay :rolleyes:

    Ok I hope that you were taking the pee with the comments above. In the event that you are not:

    Having an anonymous rant about your ex partner is hardly bad mouthing them publicly:rolleyes:. I have read through this thread and there is not one post that would provide enough info to identify any ex.

    Your last sentence astounds me. You make a sweeping generalisation that gay people dont rant about their ex's publicly, like being gay makes you immune to this:confused::confused:. I would never presume that somebodies sexuality (gay, straight, bi, tg or whatever) would determine how they react to any situation including a breakup.



    Ok and breathe. Rant over:D:D.

    not after 2 weeks
    when youre over it and dont have any hopes there anymore, send a text to see how things are going if you still want

    but being friends with exes in general, thats fine I find


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 848 ✭✭✭MayMay


    Thanks, I know ye're right, it's just hard that's all. But thanks for the advice. I know myself it's the only way to go. Doesn't make it any easier though. But I'll get there.

    Damn right!

    Nothing more exciting than an internet split/bust up :D

    I'd advise listining to what wibbs has to say because he made a few good posts in the past.

    I was thinking the same. Weird one for azezil too though I would be the same with the oul privacy TBH. No one is immune to being an over emotional whining wreck at times, man, woman, gay, straight or farmyard animal, though chickens are hard arses.

    Damn I need to get a picture of that for posterity. The trick is finding the very scarce good posts from the general dross I write...

    Leave it for now. See how you feel in 3 months.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,613 ✭✭✭✭Clare Bear


    Yeah leave it for now. I know it's hard, it's been 2 weeks with no contact for me, would like to just say hello to him, see how he is but if he's not bothered to make the effort I don't see why I should...I wish him all the best though. Just sad cause I thought we could have been better friends than this you know but there's been no contact at all....oh well, if that's what he wants I'll leave it that way.

    Get a new boy, it'll take your mind right off him. Maybe I'm on the rebound but better to have my attention on someone new than thinking about something that was never going to go anywhere.

    Meh, ex boyfriends, ban them all to a different planet, ban them all I say!!

    2 years ago i broke up with a boyfriend of 4 years....

    It was really hard to do, but he just got too clingy and protective, especially when i started college ( i got around 10 calls a day to see what i was at) and loads of texts.

    It got to the stage that when i didnt text back after 10 mins i got a text to say i have 20e on my phone so have no excuses not to text back! :confused::eek:

    Anyway, broke up with him, and it was the hardest break up! I was on the worst guilt trip!

    But what does he do?

    He could'nt get mad or start crying or whatever, instead he goes and asks me to marry him! :confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused:

    I said no and thought nothing could be worse than that, but it turns out it got much worse, he went and bought a ring (after me saying no) and asked me again!
