Question - (24 February 2009) 2 Answers - (Newest, 24 February 2009)
A female United States age 30-35, *ragonRose123 writes:

Ok. Here's my story. My boyfriend left me about a week ago and I'm devastated. We broke up because of his ex. While we were dating, he'd constantly talk to her and she'd always convince him to leave me. She hates me, for reasons I have no idea why. She's a lesbian now and I never did anything wrong to hurt her so I dont know why she hates me. Anyway, she threatened to jump me, beat me up: the works. She'd call me, IM me, and speak to me face to face with the threats and constant harassment. I asked him to stop talking to her because of the constant threats and he'd always say I was controlling him and he'd "continue to hang out with her because it makes [him] feel good" and "it's what [he] want[s]". I still love him to death and all his friends think we'll be back together soon but I just dont know. Here's what I need to know: Do you think we can work things out and get back together? If so, how can we and how can I ask him to stop talking to the girl who wants nothing more than to see me in pain?

You can't get back together with this guy. He dumped you which means he made a decision long before he did this to break up with you, which means he doesn't want to be in a relationship, with you, or perhaps any one.

He is very disrespectful to your feelings about his ex. If she is harassing you that much and threatening physical violene then you need to report her to your school and the authorities and let them handle her. She has a screw loose otherwise she wouldn't hate you for no reason....stay away from them both.

As soon as you do, you will be free to do your own thing and meet someone who is nicer to you......he isn't worth it, darling.

You probably can get back together but it would only end in heartache for you.

You can't stop him talking to her and he allowed her to bully you, so screw him, he's a grade A asshole. He chose her over you too.

Just forget about him and find another guy who'll treat you like you deserve to be treated, one that has the decency and balls to stick up for you, boyfirends are supposed to protect you and you should never be with guy that won't.

I know you didn't ask but you have to stop her bullying you, you can't let her continue to do this kind of thing.
