Question - (5 September 2008) 2 Answers - (Newest, 5 September 2008)
A male United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

so i went out with this girl for 2 years 10 months. the first year and a half was great, but the rest just got worse and worse.

she broke up with me about a month ago becasue i never treated her right, i was too controlling, and angry most of the time and when she made me angry i would say mean things. it was unhealthy, and kind of verbally abusive.

We went on break, but while on break for 2 weeks i never gave her space, and one day she finally said thats it we r done for good. i want nothing to do with u. i didnt talk to her for a week, and then i text her n she said we could b friends. after another week i asked her back out, and she said she couldnt go back out with me because she feels like the relationship will get bad again. she says that she doesnt want to hurt anymore etc.. I try to tell her that i take full responsibility, and that ive changed and really want her back to make this work.

i feel horrible for the way i treated her, she never diserved it, but my words just dont seem to get through to her. this is really what it took for me to wake up and realize what i was doing wrong. i really want to make this work. What should i do to show her that ive changed? how can i get her to relize that i realy wont make that mistake again, and that i have changed? please help....

Yes how do you know you changed? once you start dating again, you may get back into old habits. Honestly I think your ex is a very brave girl to leave you and it shows her strength, you need to leave her alone and start afresh with someone else, if you go back into this pattern then go and seek help.

This sounds familiar... and im just wondering.. how have you changed only in the matter of a month?? Just because you realized you were wrong really isnt you changing...
