I'm feeling completely devastated. How can we be so important to each other just last week and now I am NOTHING. How can someone care so little about me.

I know I'll get over this one day.... But I've been trying to get away for a year and he's just always so happy and I'm so miserable right now.

Vent. I'm sorry.

    It's probably just a rebound relationship - he probably misses being in a relationship. I don't think it has anything to do with you. I don't know if hearing that will help or not but I think it's true.

    A lot of guys can't be alone. Unfortunately, he probably wasn't as committed as you were that short week ago. I actually think it is validating that he can't be without someone and rebounded so quickly- it shows that he's probably very insecure and needs someone constantly to be "happy".

    You are stronger, better and wiser than that. But I know how much it can hurt. I'm sorry.

    Besides, we were always taught to give our old used toys to others less fortunate. :flowerforyou: Maybe you can offer her your dinner leftovers, too?

    My ex was dating and ... such... after a short time as well. I think the other posters are right that some guys just need a girl and she's probably a rebound. It still sucks and hurts, but remember, he's not actually in a better place than you.

    The subject of relationships can often leave a bad taste in someone's mouth.

    You'll find yours.

    A lot of people end up right back in relationships (male or female). The problem with this is they don't give themselves a chance to understand what went wrong. So they usually repeat the mistake. Those 'rebound' relationships tend to die fast because things you put up with, this new girl won't.

    Now you know he's moved on. It's time for you to figure out what happened, what you need and how to get it. And in the meantime, work on the things you want for yourself. Then, with action plan in hand, go get 'em.

    I'm sorry. I know exactly how you feel. But this was my husband of over 14 years. Other then the kids I wish he had only ever been a boyfriend. We were not right for each other. Like you said - keep your mind busy and eventually the hurt will lessen. Promise!

    This! I would also say, figure out what you want and I would suggest trying to work out your baggage so you don't take things out on a future bf. I've worked hard on that myself!

    Yeah, definitely this. Keep yourself occupied. As hard as it is to hear, you need to worry about yourself, not him. Go treat yourself to something and get your mind off it. Maybe a girl's night out is in order?

    I know how you feel. My ex had a gf the next week and we were together for a year. It hurt me soooo much because I felt like i never even mattered. It hurts now but you WILL find someone 100,00 times better then him

    ***** HUGS **** :flowerforyou: Time heals all wounds baby girl... but it really is truth!

    My first true love we lived together for two years and two weeks after I moved out he was on a date with some chic he met off Yahoo chat. Talk about being hurt... but it made me realize that:

    A. he could not be alone

    B. he needed someone that quickly to OBVIOUSLY get over me... LMAO :happy:

    and

    C. she could keep his sorry *kitten*! :devil:

    I've heard that before, but I like it even more each time I hear it.

    Coming from a bad break-up, I do understand our point. My ex had dumped me twice for another woman. I agree with what others said about the possibility of a rebound relationship. Or it could be that he already knew the girl long before you two considered it quits & he's really not that much into you. As ugly as it may seem but sometimes life is like that, we never know what's in store for us. Many times we thought that we are the one but not until he finds a woman more suitable to him. Whether we like it or not but sometimes we encounter somebody who is more compatible & share many things in common than our partners.

    I know its easier said than done but you must forget him & instead focus on with the people that truly loves you like your family & friends. He's not your loss anyway.
