writes:Me and my teenage sweetheart were together for 5 years when he broke up with me by text. Although we have been apart 2 years i really miss him. To make matters worse i work with his new girlfriend on a daily basis and he has just asked her to marry him. Although i am really happy for them i am really sad also and have to face her at work rubbing my nose in it. I love my new partner but he is not romantic and i doubt we will ever have out own home or marry. It makes me sad knowing i have to listen to her how perfect there relationship is when he dumped meI feel so rejected and worthless.

Well he wasn't much of a man to break up with you by text instead of face to face.Believe me nobody has a perfect life,she's just winding you up to make you feel bad and her to be superior to you.They deserve one another,good riddance I say.Just blank them both from your mind and don't fall for any bait.

I can understand why this would be hard. Just remember , it s not a perfect relationship. and, he is not very manly breaking up via text.

 It must be really hard waking up every morning five days a week to go to place that your ex-boyfriend fiancé works. Your feelings are normal and natural. I am sure what does not help the situation is that you are not quite settled in your love life, as he is. With all that said, turn this situation into something useful, let this motivate your to get serious with your own life, as he has done. You mentioned your in a relationship that is not going to go any where. So than move on. Staying in a relationship that does not have a future means you do not have much of a future. Being with any guy is not going to make this situation better. Moving on to find your match and prepare for a future is much more exciting. You can sit and cry, but the truth is he has moved on. So you need to as well. Reflect what areas in your life need some sprucing up and work on that be goal directed in your life so you can have YOUR OWN "perfect" life.

Trust me, no relationship will ever be perfect.Although she's portrays she's so happy, which she may be, it's not perfect.I think the real problem is that you're not in the best relationship possible, you're not madly in love and as a result your ex's happiness is annoying you. Don't worry. Judging from your current relationship there's not spark, so you need to find someone who will make you happy. I also think you're still a little hurt about the way he broke up with you after so many years together. I understand that was quite mean and spiteful. Once you find true happiness you won't need to look at your ex's relationship. Try and avoid her(your ex's new girl) too.

 You can spend the rest of your life looking backward - in time - and let this stress fester and, maybe, get worse...
OR,... you can look forward in time, and say to yourself, "Well, that sure wasn't meant to be.... and he's got this new b**ch to be his wife... and she's irritating as Heck, to me... but what can I do about THAT??? .... so what do I care????"
I suggest the latter....
Good luck...
