My dear sista, You will never get the closure you need from him. At this point he NEEDS to feel like the victim to make what he is doing to you seem right. He NEEDS to feel like the victim so that he can continue the r/s with the other woman. You did nothing wrong, this was not about you. This falls squarely on his shoulders. This was all about him. I am so happy that you found out what type of husband he will make in the future. You can count your lucky stars that you found out now and not after marriage or after he gave you an STD or had a baby outside. I am happy that you know now before he brought home another woman to introduce to you as your Jr. He is angry because the gig is up. He is angry because you caught him. He is angry because despite his best efforts to keep the two worlds apart they still collided. Take note people: Everything done in the dark will come to light. Just like the sun circles the earth so must it do for you. I know you want your questions answered. I know you want to know how/why can a person who you have been there for so much could ever turn their backs on you. I know you feel like you're a great catch, a wonderful women, will be a fab. wife and mother but he traded that in. Just know that karma is a bitch and she will bite him in the ass. Dont fret because you gave 60% to the relationship then him. Just know that with every failed relationship you clearly define what type of man you want and what you will not tolerate. People are put in your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime: People come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. When you figure out which it is, you know exactly what to do. When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed outwardly or inwardly. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally, or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend, and they are. They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrong doing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up or out and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled; their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and it is now time to move on. When people come into your life for a SEASON, it is because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn. They may bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it! It is real! But, only for a season. LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons; those things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person/people (anyway); and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant. ~Author Unknown Please read and re-read this poem it is very very true. He maybe the one that God sent to you to prepare you for the one that is meant for you. W/O all the hurt that I have experience in life with regards to men not meeting my expectations, not loving me how I needed to be loved and breaking my heart; I would not appreciate the love that I have with and for my husband. I would not value what we have and I would have never known what true love feels, tastes, looks and acts like. Take a man break. Focus on you, only you. Find yourself, your voice. Make a list of negotiables and non-negotiables and share that list with your next bf. I am sorry that he did this to you. But know this for certain: YOU DID NOTHING WRONG!!!!! If you have anything that belongs to him pack them send him on final text message letting him know the time and date they will be available for pick up. Let him know in that final text message that he should not contact you any further and if he is not able to pick up his items at the designated time and place that they will be put in the trash, send him this information via email as well, then block his email address, block his FB page. Delete his number from your phone, pack his things, clean your house then clean your mind. Cut all contact. Send his calls str8 to voicemail. Cry girl, let it out. 3 years is a long time to be with someone. Play the sad music, send your friends away, pull out your diary and get it all out and forgive him. Then close that chapter in your life and move on. When he comes begging let him know that his wares can no longer be sold in your shop. There will be a day that will come that you will not think about him at all. At that point you will know you're healed and ready for a new r/s. Dont rebound that is unfair to you and the other person. Heal completely and wholly. Look at this r/s and be completely honest about your faults as well; this is hard and can only be done with some distance; work on those things or acknowledge those faults and accept them. If someone cant treat you right, love you back and see your worth LET IT GO. You are clearly hurting and that is expected, dont wallow in it, use it to fuel your healing. I wish you the best as you move past him and on to the one God has designed for you. |

I feel that your 3year old relationship is too long to let go cause of such a trivial issue. you stated in your post that he has cheated on you before and you guys worked it out. i will suggest that you also work this out. all those girls telling you to move on will run head over heels at your guy if he smiles at them, believe me. so if you feel that the guy is yours then go get him. |
Re: Where Did I Go Wrong With My Boyfriend In This Situation? by Diva1(f): 12:42am On Mar 19, 2009 |
praxx: Did he or is he thinking about that too? Isn;t meant to be a two way thing? What about him also trying to make it workif he is interested despite the fact i apologised? |

Sister, he isn't serious about you.Cut him off.You didn't do nothing wrong.He wants to have you and have what's outside.Dont quarrel.Just give him a lot of space while breaking up with him silently (cant believe i said that, lol) Gradually put him into the "friends" cabinet and discontinue all intimacy even if it means you have to scream at the top of your lungs to alert everyone.He'll get the message and do all he can to "earn" you back as a "trophy".Dont give in.He's worthless.(Cant believe i said that again, lol) |

Re: Where Did I Go Wrong With My Boyfriend In This Situation? by Diva1(f): 11:57pm On Mar 27, 2009 |
He's still being sorry, but i didn't pay much attention. So after some days, I asked him about the money, I loaned him and he said he was sorry he doesn't have it and I should not be mad, then Next day, I texted him about us seeing that I wanted to talk to him in person and he said, Ok, he would come. I texted him about what time he was available and he then replied that he was somewhere else, that he had an appointment, he was sorry, that he will let me know. I'm mad, that he didn't tell me earlier on and now the money issue is coming back to my head. I don't know if i should bring up the money issue again, then move on or what? |
Re: Where Did I Go Wrong With My Boyfriend In This Situation? by topup: 3:20am On Apr 05, 2009 |
I'm sorry, I've kinda lost track of where I am up to in this saga. My advice is; if the money is an amount that you can afford to let go, as in pocket change or not too financially devastating, I think you should let it go, it could work in your favour, at first he may feel happy that he successfully intimidated you out of asking for your money, but that is not the point. The point is to clear everything off and start afresh, and this time he's NOT in the painting. Over-time he'll expect you to come back to ask for the money, the tie you have to him, but you won't and it'll begin to sting that 'She would rather lose the money than speak to me ever again.' Of course this could backfire, he might be thrilled he got the extra change, but in the long run, it'll benefit you (if the money isn't significant that is). It'll be less stress for you and you can get him out of your life QUICK. Diva1, I'm almost 100% (~ 92%) over the ex, I re-read my post and I realised that the type of image I portray of my attachment to him is slightly out, I can't ever tell you that I am fully over him, because I don't know what could happen in future that could maybe shock me that I'm not where I thought I was. But, I can tell you, even when I posted that response to you, I was over everything, it's just occassionally friends bring him up or I see him on Facebook, this constant stumbling across him is what is tying me down, and what made it impossible for me to say I am over him. I can tell you now, I have taken some more actions to block contact and delete his memory and it is fabulous!! I know he exists but it doesn't matter to me, it's bad because with forgetting about him, comes forgetting to pray for him, which I have been doing since the breakup - so I guess that's the only negative. If someone told me never to mention his name or avoid him for a year for a sum of money, I could do it, easily ![]() Nothing about it is uncontrollable, and I chose to remember and go over the breakup at times (maybe from boredom or stubborness). I have a feeling you'll be completely over your ex probably sooner than I was - I advise maybe talking it out a lot on Nairaland, as these people even if wrong will give you a kick up the backside, and even if you're not in as bad a state as they presume, it gets you thinking, forcing you to take the next step to recovery. All the best - please keep us informed. |

@Diva, dis story is a sad one n d guy is just plain pathetic bt U̶̲̥̅̊ need to stop doing this urself! Wen I started readg dis post, I could feel ur pain bt after a whilt it bcam annoyg cz some "nt so gud posts" were makg U̶̲̥̅̊ talk crazy, he already cheated n U̶̲̥̅̊ saw d signs babe bt I gues U̶̲̥̅̊ were too in love to do somethg abt it, U̶̲̥̅̊ shouldn't av taken sorry as an answer wen U̶̲̥̅̊ asked him abt d initial distance. U̶̲̥̅̊ don't expect a relationship 2 move forward wen U̶̲̥̅̊ dnt discuss issues properly. As for d fake acct, U̶̲̥̅̊ went 2 far bt den, its d stupid guy's fault cz he pushed U̶̲̥̅̊ 2 dat level bt den again, its ur fault 4 allowg him. I jst want 2 tell U̶̲̥̅̊ dat u shd stop tryg 2 make sense of wat he did cz he is a loser n U̶̲̥̅̊ deserve better than dat n d last thg U̶̲̥̅̊ need nw is a guy makg u think unnecessarily, jst see dis as a blessing 4rm God(U̶̲̥̅̊ kud av bn married 2 him wc wud av bn worse), see this as gud riddance to bad rubbish n enjoy ur life, its part of d growg process! He taught U̶̲̥̅̊ sumthgs U̶̲̥̅̊ wnt ignore in ur future relationships. Takcre |
