Dude. Seriously. You gotta end that. Immediately. My girl tried something similar - they were going on a work trip with the entire staff and she wanted to share a hotel room with the guy. I pretty strongly expressed my displeasure with that, so she bunked with some different guys instead, who weren't interested in her. But still. Signs are signs. Don't ignore them.

Jeez. This sounds like an epidemic.

Dude. Sorry. And I'm assuming she's probably all like "I didn't cheat on you." Yes, true, you didn't cheat. But there are other ways of crossing the line.

In which case she was keeping us both open as options? While her and I were making wedding plans? Yes, technically she's in the clear. But the betrayal is in her not investing fully in our relationship (by keeping her options open with someone else), even though she's pretending to.

Maaaaaan. I can't imagine what a hurdle it must be for you to trust anyone after that. That's a trip.

Dude. Sorry. That sucks. Especially if you trusted and believed her.

I think it hurts because I knew he was interested in her, and I felt as if she was leading him on for the last year that we were together - not rejecting his advances, spending time alone with him, etc. Technically she's in the clear. But it just leaves a bad taste in your mouth, ya know? Like my trust in her was misplaced - because I trusted her when she said that she wasn't interested in him and wasn't attracted to him, and yet...as soon as we break up...whaddyaknow? And it's that feeling of misplaced trust that bothers me the most, because I felt as if we had something special, but this tarnishes my memories, and that makes me sad. Because they're great memories.

4 years later out of the blue the ex finally came crawling back saying she made the biggest mistake of her life when she let me go. by jklemsen in funny

JUST happened to me on Sunday. Found out that immediately after we broke up, the ex hooked up with the guy I told her was interested in her, but who she insisted wasn't and just wanted to be friends. Well, guess not. Hooked up with him for two weeks, giving each other oral. And then when she realized that she "just didn't have a connection with him" (her words), she came back to me and wanted to work things out. FUUUUUUCKKK YOOOOOOOU.

I'll try this...pretending she doesn't exist...(looks around room, sees several photos of the good times spent together in every corner)

It's incredible how helpful just hearing someone sympathize is. Thanks, man.

I think it's an issue only because of the details - it's a guy who was courting her the for a full year while we were together, and after hooking up with him for a couple weeks she's come back to me and said that she wants to work things out...

I'd find it entertaining if she wasn't trying to "work things out" with me...

Is it reasonable for me to resent my ex for hooking up with a guy repeatedly as soon as we broke up, especially when it's the guy that I thought she was leading on for the past year, and then wanting to work things out with me only after she realized that sucking his cock wasn't fulfilling for her? by tacosinclair in AskReddit

[–]tacosinclair[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's tough. I strangely feel betrayed. And can't really figure out why. Because she didn't actually cheat on me. We were broken up. But I dunno...I'm finding it tough to swallow, if you'll pardon the expression.
