My boyfriend keeps playing games?

[Bloodparadise]

My boyfriend keeps playing mind games with me and at times he leaves me to support his ex.. its annoying and i can't take it

What should I do? I don't want to encourage this behaviour..

[AvaRay]

If a man keeps playing games, it only means he’s afraid of facing something real..

He’s either a coward, a jerk, or just the perverted type, u know the kind.. 🤣

That kind of behavior doesn’t confuse me anymore, it simply shows where his maturity ends..

If he can’t choose me fully, he can lose me completely.. Simple as that, why hv to complicate things right?

I can walk away anytime with my head high never hesitate, never afraid to cut someone off..

Cause I know my worth, n I’m not chasing anyone when the world is full of men trying to earn a chance to know me who’d treat me better with respect n proper manners..

I’m selective, even the closest one gets no exception if our values don’t align n if he shows disrespect, well then, sorry it's a goodbye from my end..

I don’t compete with someone’s past, n I don’t beg for consistency from a man who can’t even be real..

Let him play. I’m not part of the game..

I’m the peace he’ll miss when the noise stops.. 😎

[Bloodparadise]

After walking away, where will you go?
Coz I'm an orphan and I have nowhere to go

[AvaRay]

I walk away to my own life, my own peace, n the spaces I create for myself, places where respect, value, n intention r not optional..

Everyone has the power to build their own sanctuary, even when life hasn’t handed them much..

U may have no home given to u, but u always hv the ability to create one for your mind, your heart, n your energy..

I don't know what the game playing is but I’d draw the line at leaving you to go help his ex. She should not still be a priority in his life at that capacity and it sounds like he may still have feelings for her. @Abbycado I’d be super done with that relationship. I’m not sharing my boyfriend with his ex.

[Bloodparadise]

I think that as well.. I feel he might be having feelings for his ex.. his ex was his first love 😓

[HollyK21]

It’s upsetting, as someone who’s been in your shoes I absolutely get it. But because I’ve been in that position I feel like it would be naive to ignore the signs. I have a strong feeling that despite how much he denies having feelings for her (probably claiming she hurt him in some unforgivable way), his actions show otherwise. I hate to say it but I’m willing to bet that if she ever offered to try again, he would. Sadly I believe that you’re just the placeholder and that’s why he’s so wishy washy/playing games, because his heart is still reserved for her. He stays with you because he needs a distraction and doesn’t want to be single, almost like you’re the backup plan and that’s really shitty. You should not share equal priority with his ex or be left behind whenever she calls, like that’s so shady and disrespectful. I know it’s hard but if I were you I’d leave him before he gets the chance to leave me. You don’t need your self esteem crushed by being dumped on top of emotionally (maybe even physically) cheated on when it could’ve totally been avoided.

[Abbycado]

Oh, I totally agree with Holly. I’d be done. Not even a question.

You play that same game by staying. Either leave a bad relationship or don't complain. People that enable are just as bad as those that do said bad things. Don't stick around for someone like that because they have no real love for you.

[Tarifa]

If he spends more time with his ex or is thinking about his ex, just walk away. It's not worth it. You're always going to lose out.

[ohsheeT]

Support his ex why
.. you know what the best part about you. Is that you are you.

And you don't need to do anything for anyone not unless you want to

No I understand sometimes in life we all go through things and if your boy friend is going through some thing. And can't do what he told his ex he was going to to. But something happen and he can't. So because you are you and you want to help him you take care of it. Now it's OK 1 time for you to help. But that's it

And he should never put that on you. It's wrong. And if he has allowed you to do it more than once. He's wrong for that to

Now you have to ask why did he and his ex break up. Was it because he couldn't take care of his responsibilities and she to got tired of it..

Come on if he can't take care if you then something is wrong with this picture. And what ever you do don't allow him to keep taking from you because one day your going to need all of it back and he's not going to be there for you

It’s important to set clear boundaries and communicate that this behavior isn’t okay with you. If he continues to play games or prioritize his ex over you, it’s a sign to reevaluate whether this relationship is healthy for you. Respecting yourself means not tolerating behavior that makes you feel undervalued.

Imagine one of your friends was in this same situation. What would you tell them? I think you know what to do but you need to think about it and be honest with yourself.

[glennos89]

What do you think? What would be a wise decision to make?

I know what I would do if I was stuck in your position...

[slatyb]

What should you do? Stop wasting time on him and find a man who will put you first.

[Anonymous]

Looks like u both have not establishing exclusivity

[Anonymous]

It's simple. Especially if you warmed him about boundaries multiple times

[Anonymous]

It would be better for him to start playing video games, they are more fun and less annoying.

[BarryLiverstone]

How does he support his ex?

[Bloodparadise]

He takes his ex side when there's a dilemma

[BarryLiverstone]

But she’s the ex.. he should block her

[Bloodparadise]

He doesn't.. what do you say i should do about it?

[BarryLiverstone]

Do you want my nice answer or my honest answer

[Bloodparadise]

Both

[BarryLiverstone]

Nice answer :

Sorry he’s doing that. Must feel hurtful when he abandons you and takes her side, I hope he gets better over time.

Honest answer : you shouldn’t tolerate his behavior, if you have boundaries then enforce them. Let him know that to be your girlfriend, he can’t still support his ex

[BarryLiverstone]

Which answer was better?

[Bloodparadise]

I'm a girl.. u know that right?

[BarryLiverstone]

Yes, you have a pink account. When did I say you are not?

[KostasKouvalis]

You have a boyfriend? 🤯
