Has anyone out there had an experience where they were with someone and left them for someone new? how did it happen and how did it work out for you?

    I left my first boyfriend for my second boyfriend and my second boyfriend for my third boyfriend and still waiting for someone to leave my third boyfriend for.

    Kidding, I have been with the 3rd one for almost 8 years and we are lifers.

    i don't understand this question. are you asking if people have broken up with someone for the sole reason of dating someone else?

    so let me get this straight...judging from the lack of details in your post...there's nothing WRONG with the old guy...you just want a newer model?

    .....i'd do that to my microwave....ooops...i mean deathbox...

    but not a guy...

    Nope. I was separated from my ex husband for almost a year before I went out with my now husband. To be honest, my ex husband had pretty much turned me off to men for a while, so I wouldn't have gone from him to someone else immediately whether I had met someone or not.

    Why leave, why not just have both?

    ha i guess it was vague. nothing wrong with the old guy. But someone else came along who is equally wonderful. Chosing between the "models" and going with the newer one is what I was curious about.

    All the time! Just don't tell the first though unless you text them. They will fade away! Wait what's the name for that?

    So, choosing between what's known and may seem dull because it's not new vs. new and exciting? Or are there any actual feelings here?

    oh, then yes. i have done this a couple times. Most recently - about 10 years ago I was dating a girl who moved hundreds of miles away. I knew the relationship wasn't going to work, she used a little emotional blackmail to get me to stay with her long distance. During the next few months or so, i met a woman who i found amazing - so I officially broke it off with the old one for the new girl...whom i would later marry.

    Not really. I broke up with my last long term bf because I started to develop super strong feelings for a very close friend. I knew it wasn't fair to me or him to stay in that relationship when I knew it was possible for me to feel so much more for someone else.

    I didn't really think anything would come of it. Still don't. But better to try and fail imo.

    I did when I was 15- I went out with a guy then realised that I fancied his best friend so I finished with him. It was a bit awkward when on a date with his best friend he then walked into the bar........Oh my golly, it makes me sound really horrible but I put it down to youth. I haven't done it since and I've been with my husband for 25 .5 years! (Incidentally, he isn't the best friend...!)

    If I may so bold, if you have two "wonderful" men and are contemplating leaving your man for a new man simply because he is new, then, my dear, you do not deserve either of them.

    Okaaaaay......so cheating is bad, but dumping one guy for a new "model: is ok? and how do you know
    someone else came along who is equally wonderful.

    You're so vague. Is love involved? Do you love either? Both? Are you married or commited?

    of course it is not at all just because he is new. Next time i should explain myself better.
