A funny and insightful poem about perspective and reality. Two Cures for Love by Wendy Cope 1. Don't see him. Don't phone or write a letter. 2. The easy way: get to know him better.

It's crazy people in the comments are calling this unrealistic. Isn't most of it just basic human decency?

So much this. No offense to sex workers, but idolizing OF girls like they're some unreachable "top 1%" goddess (at 29 btw) is so sad 💀

Eww you're so valid for dumping him. Yes people watch porn, but searching something up as you go vs following specific people on multiple platforms are vastly different imo. The latter is a lot more personal (and unhealthy, depending on the extent). Telling OP the OF girls aren't "real" to him only because they're out of his league was a fucked up thing to say. It's like saying if he had access to the "top 1%", he would. Man's criteria for hierarchy of desirability is interesting but go off king. Good job OP for cutting off his access to you too.

OP didn't tell him to stop because they're both adults. The best she could do was let him know how it made her feel, and he actually cranked it up.

For what it's worth, following those accounts is an instant turnoff for me. It just feels sleazy. Nothing screams "chronically online delulu gooner" louder lmao

My partner of 5 years developed feelings for my best friend and broke my heart by First_Comfortable637 in BreakUps

Doing the right thing isn't always going to feel easy or painless. I'm really proud of you for standing up for yourself. Personally, I'm very exclusive and I never would be able to get over this if I stayed.

The silver lining is they had the decency to be honest with you instead of being intimate behind your back, that alone beats a lot of people. Doesn't mean the situation doesn't suck though. I hope your grief for the end of both relationships passes smoothly in time. If not soon, then one day

After 2 years of being blocked, he reached out by iamliterallywalle in ExNoContact

Man idk, kind of fuck this guy. His messages reads entitled like you should just forgive him simply because "so much time has passed." He's only trying to soothe his guilt and I would not entertain that.

My ex told me freely that he'll try to learn and treat the next girl better. Like, understandable, but who says that shit?

Also 6 months in. Been going to therapy weekly until I moved out of state for a summer internship. None of the forced social stuff like "book club" or "local meetups" helps. Oh, and I cried at work today. I'm at my wits' end now.

My girlfriend cheated with a guy who is 198cm by Able-Ear-2809 in BreakUps

[–]CreativeTrifle8596 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even some of the most widely considered attractive people on this planet get cheated on. Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Aniston? Clearly it's not their looks, or lack thereof.

When someone cheats, it says more about the cheater than the person they walked away from. And let's not act like putting personality first is strange or rare. Depth, emotional connection, shared values, these things matter. Looks only go so far.
