I got burned by an opportunist type girlfriend?

[Anonymous]

Me and this girl were hitting it off great she told me we were soul mates and took me with her to church saying God out us together and I was really buying it! Then all of the sudden she did a 180 on me started getting cold and spending less time with me and 3 weeks later she dumped me! She left me for an ex who had the looks made a lot of money and owned a house. They originally broke up bc he treated her like crap...

This stings really bad.

Wow, some of the responses are a little harsh. I truly feel your pain. I have been in this situation where I have fallen deeply in love with someone, in a very short amount of time, and only to have it end. I too thought we were going to be together forever. Years later, I still think of him, ( and still see him) from time to time. I really don't have much advice. If I had answers, I would give them to you!. My best advice is to try to live the best life you can lead. Best wishes for the future!.

we ended up back together to see if we can work it out she told me she fell in love with my heart but 6 more months went by and the thought of her in bed cuddling kissing sex just eats at me so I broke up with her...

[Poppykate]

I don't understand. The thought of what eat you up?

[Asker]

Her in bed with that guy... The image of what happened was eating me up and I couldn't get past it.

I know I would give up a lifetime to spend a few short weeks in the arms of my love once more if given the chance. (Even through we both have had partners since than). When I look into his eyes it is like no time has passed at all. Love really in eternal and boundless.

We had a strong emotional connection our relationship wasn't based on looks but she had no will power when it came to a physically attracted guy so she cheats bc he was muscular... I need a woman who is strong

[Poppykate]

Obviously, not strong enough!

[Poppykate]

The emotional connection that is. On GAG I have heard so many men talk about cheating women. It is really sad. If you find a man who really loves you, and you love him, shouldn't this be enough?

[Asker]

Well I have a strong moral foundation I have values and not matter how hard my life gets I never gave up my integrity in order to screw over other people for my own needs and I'm still alive... I am her first experience of love based on emotions we were like best friends lots of cuddle time we could talk about anything she told me she never experience a relationship like that... She didn't realize how strong emotional love was until I left her once and she cried begging me back saying she my heart was a magnet... Oh well her loss she can go find that macho man with money and let's see how it goes when he loses his looks due to age... She is 40 years old by the way so I don't get it...

[Poppykate]

I am so sorry you had to go through all that crap.

Unfortunatly you paired up with a bad apple. It sucks but good thing you found out sooner than later. Her lack of maturity and 180 turn shows you an example of how she deals with things. I say good riddance and onto the next adventure!

Oh well, get over it. I hope venting your annoyance was therapeutic for you. At least she only wasted three weeks of your life. It could have been much worse. I hope this doesn't sour you on girls too much. We're not all like that.

[Asker]

Well we dated for 3 months but we were close friends before... So we were pretty close and I'm in love with her

I know it hurts, hurts like hell and may hurt for the rest of your life, but that's life and you're just going to have to move on, try to forget about it and cheer up. That's what we humans have been doing for eternity and you're not the only person this has ever happened to, not by a long shot. Don't obsess about it or get jealous or anything else self destructive. Think "better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all" because it's very true. Buck up. You will find love again.

Sometimes these things happen. Perhaps it's time to work on yourself and become that man who is relaxed, content and satisfied without all the -hoo-ha in life, which really does not matter once you're sitting in a hole in the ground.
