Too old to be feeling like this!!

This makes no sense but just wanted to ‘get it out there’.....usual story of boy meeting girl a couple of years ago – he wanted to get involved then he didn’t then he did, he was telling his friends he was crazy about me but yet wouldn’t commit because of past ‘issues’ and i stupidly went with it thinking he’d change....Numbers deleted and ‘un’deleted! Big saga but absolutely no good for me whatsoever as we could be together one night and he would ignore me the next...but I still went back purely out of lack of self respect....fell for him badly but had just come out of very long term relationship so was probably looking for distraction and wasn’t ready to meet anyone anyway. So we weren’t in touch for ages.....and got back in contact recently and the usual. All over you one minute and ignoring you the next. And eventually I just said I had enough and to leave me in peace cos it was doing my head in. Now he’s seeing someone.....I shouldn’t care....I know he’s no good for me and has never shown me any respect whatsoever. But I’m gutted.....which is crazy! I know I’m worth more than that. I know that he’s not good enough so why the hell am I so bothered? I guess I’m lonely and the bad break up didn’t help at that time we met but am over that now so this is ridiculous....Can one of you logical people talk some sense into me?!

Thanks...I know you're right. I wouldn't put up with it now and I know I told him to sod off recently which makes me feel much better but I guess I always thought deep down that one day he'd have this realisation that we would actually work out. How dumb can you be?!!

Ah you're just feeling a bit low at the moment. Happens to everyone. Give yourself a bit of time to come to terms with your feelings about this, then get back out there and live your life : )

was in the total same situation as you three years ago. said he didnt want relationship and two months later has a girlfriend?

of course she was absolutely gorgeous which broke my heart

a year later she dumps his sorry ass and i get a text out of the blue

he got a short reply.

so take comfort in knowing that sooner or later he'll start acting up on this new girl too and she'll be the one miserable not you x x x

Thanks guys - feeling much better about the whole thing. As bambino says - he can treat her like crap instead now. And I'll be moving on! You tend to lose the ability to weed out the bad guys sometimes!
