    I became his therapist before his girlfriend.
    He hated his job but refused to find a new one, complained about his weight gain from all of his bad habits, but refused to change his lifestyle. Was tired of being broke but would spend all of his money on crap. He had no self esteem and once I finally ended it because I was tired of his pessimism and his unwillingness to change, he signed up on Plenty of Fish the next day...
    I realized then that he didn't really care about ME, he just needed SOMEONE to stroke is ego.

    More sad than anything..

    That was 10 years ago, I should write him a thank you card for ending it 2 years in, so I could find someone much better and much more interested in my female parts.

    Your shoes?
    Shoes have a gender? :noway:

    Your collection of hair bows then?

    I think you are confusing sexuality And gender.

    What you identify as and who you're sexually attracted to are 2 different things.

    I wish more people understood this...

    There's too many reasons why the break happened. It was an awful existence that deserves to be left in the past. Hasta la bye bye!! :drinker:

    He was jealous of the friendship I had with my current husband (looks like that was a valid concern)

    lots of reasons haha but primarily bc he cheated on me multiple times and told me it was my fault bc I wasn't good enough! what a waste of 2 and a half years! :grumble:

    totally forgot he gave me a journal detailing the people he'd cheated on me with on my b-day! and always did crap like that haha

    I didn't find out until 5 months after we broke up, and 7 months after the fact. :huh:

    Mine was mostly because of geographical distance. We live in separate states. That and we wanted different things out of the relationship. He wanted to get married, the sooner the better and I was the one putting the brakes on that idea. He's also very complicated. Maybe one day I'll find a man less complicated, doesn't sound promising though but that's ok, I'm happy being single just as much as when I'm in a relationship.

    We moved in wayyy too soon and he decided he would rather be alone because he enjoys that.

    I'm glad it happened that way, otherwise I wouldn't have come back home and met a really nice Canadian that I'm really enjoying my time with, even if we are 2,000 miles apart.

    One was too overweight.... I didn't realize it bothered me enough until a couple months in. I broke it off!

    Another was downright mental. Stole from me, fought with me on purpose (not physically, just emotionally), kept making ultimatums about my smoking even though he was fine with it when we started PLUS he smoked pot, and the cherry on top was the requests for gay stuff I found on myspace.com. Yikes!

    The third one was a great person, but as it was a LDR we couldn't sustain it and I was too needy which stressed him out with school so he ended up and never talked to me again.

    Then I met my husband! No problems at all, going on four years. :happy: I was able to easily quit smoking 3 years ago, lose weight, start and soon to finish my Bachelors, become successful, and happy while being with him.

    We rushed things and I felt suffocated and needed space.

    Not my last, but my most "memorable" breakup was the b/f of a year, fairly serious (I thought) hung out with his kids every weekend etc - then my best friend died in an accident.

    3 days after her death, I finally get him on the phone and he tells me he's "a good times boyfriend" and to get back to him when I've stopped "being so emo".

    He was 38 at the time, BTW.
