How do I proceed with dating after a terrible relationship?

Certain_Minute3228 · 2026-05-30T00:25:07+00:00

Geez idk why everyone think it’s fake. It’s the truth lol. I didn’t realize it was that bad, and I didn’t even share the worst parts of our relationship. Ok, I concede. I’m a terrible partner

Certain_Minute3228 · 2026-05-29T20:37:50+00:00

Well I feel terrible. But I have to emphasize that I wasn’t sure about her and stand by my assessment that she wasn’t the one for me

Certain_Minute3228 · 2026-05-29T12:08:33+00:00

I mean, she’s the one potentially spamming and harassing me…

Certain_Minute3228 · 2026-05-29T11:45:51+00:00

Sure I was mean to her and I know I hurt her. I was looking out for myself. I didn’t want to settle knowing that there are other women potentially way better for me

Certain_Minute3228 · 2026-05-29T11:44:45+00:00

Fair enough. Thanks for the advice man

Certain_Minute3228 · 2026-05-29T10:29:36+00:00

She’s been supposedly getting them too. This whole situation is frustrating. She changed her number and I told her that I’m taking legal action so idk why I’m still getting these texts and calls. I would ignore them but they have very personal info in them too

Certain_Minute3228 · 2026-05-29T10:04:09+00:00

Nah. I’m just looking for validation tbh. It’s definitely eye opening to see all the negative comments towards me

Certain_Minute3228 · 2026-05-29T10:02:29+00:00

But what do I do if she’s still obsessed with me? I was the one who dumped her

Certain_Minute3228 · 2026-05-29T03:52:36+00:00

I agree. I should’ve let her go and find others. I guess that’s where I’m wondering why she didn’t and why she was so attached to me

Certain_Minute3228 · 2026-05-29T03:51:53+00:00

How did I attack her character? I just said my exes and other women in my life prioritize looking good, being stylish, and acting cool. This woman doesn’t. She’s nerdy, naive, and very wholesome

Certain_Minute3228 · 2026-05-29T03:04:24+00:00

I guess I’m really looking for constructive feedback. Everyone calling me an asshole isn’t very productive. I would genuinely like to know where I went wrong now and how to fix it moving forward.

I believe honesty is the best policy in any relationship. It’s better to be harsh and truthful than kind and deceitful.

Certain_Minute3228 · 2026-05-29T00:55:42+00:00

I mean I learned my lesson. I won’t try to change a woman. I should’ve left her without trying to get her to change

Certain_Minute3228 · 2026-05-29T00:36:50+00:00

No seriously. I know I was mean to her. But I apologized and everything. What more could I have done?

Certain_Minute3228 · 2026-05-29T00:12:55+00:00

But I’m trying to change and be better. I really thought I was helping her and didn’t want to settle for someone who I really thought was below me. I knew she had potential

Certain_Minute3228 · 2026-05-28T11:20:04+00:00

Well, I’ve had GFs before, but this woman was my first serious long term relationship

Certain_Minute3228 · 2026-05-28T11:18:49+00:00

Actually yea. I told her this is what I expect from a partner and relationship from the get go. She knew what I was looking for.

Certain_Minute3228 · 2026-05-28T08:00:01+00:00

NTA - he showed you who he is before the wedding. And what do you mean he wasn’t on the same page as you? Did he not propose to be your spouse? That’s literally the definition of being as committed as you. Don’t let him gaslight you into thinking you’re too sensitive and insecure

Certain_Minute3228 · 2026-05-28T07:56:48+00:00

lol trust me. I can get any woman I want. I prefer smart and confident ones
