Why would a man spend a few months getting to know you, spending all his free time talking to you, telling you how he loves you, how he wants you to be the one and he says he wants you to be his everything. Promises you the sun, moon and the stars, give you all these hopes of a relationship and basically make you fall in love with him him. You believe you finally met that one guy you always hoped for and then LITERALLY the very next day cut all communication with you and start dating someone he just met?
This guy did that to me, like LITERALLY the day before it was all about how much he wanted to be with me/loved me. Next day, he's dating some random girl he met like a week ago or so. He didn't even tell me, he refused to even pick up the phone and give me an explanation. All I know is from what he put on his Facebook that she's "The love of his life, the ONE he's waited for his whole life" so that's how I found out. If I hadn't looked at his Facebook, I wouldn't even know he was with someone. I'd still be pondering why he stopped speaking to me. It's something you'd expect from a teenage boy not a 28 year old man.
Some men actually live 2 different lives and have 2 girlfriends who have no clue about the other. The stress and extra effort that a man goes through to maintain 2 separate lives of lies is beyond me and is so not worth it. But they do it anyway.
The fact that he would throw you away is proof he was never genuine about anything he said. Did he only give you words or did he actually buy you gifts and expensive gifts at that? If he didn't really spend much money on you, that could be a reflection of how much you were worth to him. Also, did he just talk up a storm as you have mentioned, or did he actually spend a large amount of time with you after work and especially on weekends? If he only spent maybe one day a week with you, he was probably blowing you off the whole time.
Any man who truly loves his woman will naturally want to spend more than just one day a week with her. He would want to spend 7 days a week with her if he could make the time (this excludes men and women still in college). And a man who truly loves his woman will put her needs above his own. Did he display this behavior?
So why would he do this? Some men like control and like women to almost worship them. Some men want to receive love and affection but not give any back. Those men don't know what true love is, and I have bad news for the next girl. And to other men, women are disposable commodities and not human beings. He just wanted to keep his commodity until he found a new replacement. Even old men still do this. And I'm sorry to say so harshly but men will continue to act this way as long as women continue to fall for it.
Sounds like a player to me. You've said yourself, "give you all these hopes of a relationship. "
Players will paint you the picture that you want to see but they work multiple angles and a few women at the same time. As soon as they feel they can reel in a better catch they move on.
As for age, it is truly just a number. I've met girls who were older than me and behaved like teenagers and vice versa, teenagers who behaved like mature adults.
Your first clue should have been that he was laying it on real thick. Most dishonest people are the ones that will sound like they are trying to convince you of something all of the time (just listen to politicians).
Some proverb I think about a lot, "Look at the hand being hidden, not the one that's being offered to you. " Basically, make sure you find out what someone's true intentions are, and not pay attention to only what they want you to observe.
Sorry this guy did that to you, but you're way better off without him in your life. Just remind yourself that he's a loser. There are good men out there, so don't waste your time thinking about this guy.
Just remember Men aren't mature. Their age means nothing. You could be with the sweetest guy and he could be 10 years younger or older than you. He is just scared to face you because he is weak. Don't stress over it, there are plenty of fish in the sea. Just use that situation to learn from, and play harder to get. Even if you meet someone you absolutely fall head over heels for. Make him work for you. Maybe that's what this girl did for him, and maybe she is just using him. At least we can hope! Keep your head up, and DON'T call him.
But I didn't know about it so I guess he moved on, but when I walk into his class, sometimes I catch him smiling at me. Today I walked into his class...
