  • I knew it! Yeah, smart to cut the coil. Although I'm shocked he dated first...

    Ajonthguitar: Yeah, I was actually watching this thing, or saw it on a blog, it's been a while sorry, but it was explaining the rebound girl/guy, and how it always seemed so unfair that instantly that person could be with another. But the thing is, they hadn't recognized the loss of that yet, so they just picked up where the other one left off, not completely understanding it. She's apparently not a good person, and neither is he really, so they probably deserve each other, although it didn't last.
  • Sorry to hear that hon :( That's awful and I've been on your side too.

    You can contact your cell carrier and have them block his number, then you don't even have to deal with the texts, let alone worry about responding to them.

    I understand about guys not wanting to let go: My dad STILL asks about my mom all the time (they've been divorced for 33 years!!) and has, until recently, said that he still loves her. Um, no, I don't think he knew (or possibly even now knows) what it is to love a woman. And he remarried almost 30 years ago yet still said he loved my mom. Weird! ... I completely understand why she left (abusive). She has been able to avoid contact with him for the last 20+ years, her mom became the go-between until my bro and I were old enough to deal with him directly (he had visitation rights all growing up). Even in the last year he has asked about how to get ahold of her! (I offered to pass on any message, but wouldn't give him her ph# or address)
    Some guys just can't accept that it's over, huh?

    Mathjulz,

    Well I'm sorry. If it was an abusive relationship, I wonder whether woman or man, when they finally learned they screwed up a good thing and hurt someone, that then they realize, oh s*^t. And try to make up for it. I wonder if your mom would be receptive to talking with him. This was just on Coco and Ice the other night, YES I watched that. It was a really sweet episode! Now that's a man who loves his wife!!
  • I have an ex like that, he kind of weirds me out but I think it's pretty harmless so I just avoid talking to him. Another ex of mine was so clingy/inappropriate that I had to remove her from my facebook (other reasons too, like her being an insufferable b word at times), I've been married for 3 years and dated my DH for 3 years before that so it's not like she isn't aware that I'm not interested.

    People are strange but ex's seem to take the cake
