Question - (17 June 2010) 3 Answers - (Newest, 17 June 2010)
A female Anguilla age 41-50, anonymous writes:

"I was supposed to tell you last time, that I have something of a girlfriend. She likes to throw fits and, since she's a pretty jealous and paranoid creature, demanded that I make it clear to you that, yes, I am somewhat taken." "I guess she thinks you're some kind of a threat due to our common history."

He said this to his ex gf, because she was pursuing him relentlessly. I asked him to tell her about me, so she would know he was taken.

I nagged him, a lot, it got annoying, I understand. But I feel like what he said was so hurtful.

And the worst part is he said that to his ex, who he says he doesnt care about anymore but wont let her know or just erase her from his life either.

After our latest fight he said I wouldnt give a toss if you walked out on me, I am so tired of all this nagging and mistrust.

I want him to understand how hurt I am, and that I am leaving, since we are long distance, how can I let him know without seeming like it affected me?

I think you should just say that he is not putting effort in, doesn't seem interested and seems like he's into his ex, so you're setting him free so he can go to her. There's no way of making it look like you're not affected, because by dumping him, you're showing that you're affected. But you can dump him with dignity, which is what you need to do. The just cut him out of your life.

just next time you see him, say oh yeah by the way, it's over, i'm too good for you now.

say, you have really hurt me but, i guess that you don't care, so it's over. ask him if he has anything to say and if he doesnt then just say bye, have a nice day.
