How do I stop feeling used?

Question - (18 December 2015) 2 Answers - (Newest, 19 December 2015)
A female United States age 22-25, anonymous writes:

Hi. So I got out of a relationship at the end of October and I really liked the guy. In the relationship he told me he stopped liking his best friend (who is a girl) after I asked if he still liked her because some metal friends were telling me he liked her not long ago.

I decided to trust his word and date him. We didn't date long at all and in hindsight I feel like I was used because now I am 95% sure him and his best friend are now dating (even though she is not allowed).

I feel as though I was deceived/ a rebound and I hate it because he still glances at me all the time and I still have feelings for him despite what happened. How do I get over him?

Thanks.

Your feelings won't go away overnight. You are getting to the age where you'll probably start dating more and more. Much of your hurt is due to him having someone and you don't. This will change and, when you start dating your next guy, you'll all but forget this episode. As upset as you are at this point, just know that he's been a learning experience for you and you will be wiser in the future.

Honeypie agony auntHow do you get over him?

By accepting he wasn't a good match. He did do something that wasn't nice, and that was date you while liking another girl too. And THAT is not your doing or your fault.

So he didn't end it with you because YOU did something "wrong", but because HE did.

And now you know to LISTEN to that little voice that tells you, maybe this isn't right FOR ME.

No need to beat yourself up for having "picked" the wrong guy to date.
