As much as I'd hate to admit it I have emotionally withdrawn from 2 relationships prior to breaking up.

The first one he and I could not get along. The relationship really had no future but he didn't want to let it go. He is pretty crazy about me but our personalities just didn't go together. I didn't want to break up with him b/c I knew he loved me. So I just started doing shyt so he wouldn't want to be with me ie pretend to get mad at shyt that I wasn't mad about or just start arguments for no reason. He eventually had enough and broke up with me. I played the roll so well. I even cried and told him I was so sorry. Then he wanted to get back together a week later and I was like "No I think it's for the best." He was so confused. This was like 7 or 8 years ago and I just saw him 8 months ago and he told me that he will always love me and I broke his heart. :deadmanny: It sucks b/c I did all that so that he would feel okay about the break up. Damned it you do. Damned if you don't.

With the second guy, we just had fundamental lifestyle differences. Hanging out was cool for awhile but all he ever wanted to do was sit on the sofa and watch basketball. He never wanted to try anything new. I do remember just sitting on the couch with him one day. I looked at the TV, looked at him, looked at the TV and then looked at him and thought "if I stay with this dude this is all my life will ever be; sitting on the coach watching TV. " I don't even like TV. At that point, I began to check out. But not too long after that I found out he was cheating. I was hurt but also kind of relieved b/c I had an out. He cried and said he would never do it again blah blah. I told him we could be friends b/c honestly I wasn't completely checked out yet. Over the course of a few months we decided to "work on our relationship" in reality I was just getting him out of my system. Then the day came when I was ready to let him go and I told him that I wasn't interested in friendship or anything else. He literally broke down and cried and told me he thought we were getting back together and he had been working hard to make things right but I had no sympathy in my heart for him. :manny: I didn't talk to him for a year or 2 after that day until he hit me with an email saying he missed me blah blah blah. I didn't even respond.


:pachaha:Damn I was cold. :wow:


Going forward I would handle both situations differently.


You did that FLAT OUT DIRTY. shyt just happened to me, lol...like literally the other day. fukking wow.

Can't co sign this, it seems like a really selfish act. Nothing hard about sticking with someone you've been with 10 years once you on and poppin. Especially if they are ok with everything.... I could see if dude had cheated in the past or something... but nah she just "woke up" We got rappers and singers who do the same thing day in and day out, Ti, T-pain, come to mind right away. And if they do split up its not because they just woke up and it wasn't the same.

At least cheat, or something. "It's not working out" when everything seems good is the lamest and most confusing thing you can do to a man. I don't think any dude really gets over that, even if they are Cordial to the ex

Would you rather a woman (or man) stayed with someone out of obligation for the rest of their life? Sounds like a recipe for bitterness and resentment, which eventually would lead to infidelity and a waste of everyone's time.

So why get married to that person then?

Chick didn't even attempt marriage counselling just said eff it because her emotions change

Typical of a woman to spit on vows and commitment. Ol follow your heart ass brehettes

I wouldn't say that. The first dude would literally be upset at me all the time; neither one of us were happy but he didn't want to let go. I was trying to make him feel like her got the better of the relationship. My intentions were to not hurt him.

The second dude :yeshrug: fukk um. He cheated on me. fukk um some more.

Dudes need to copy this to a Word document and put this on their desktop as a reminder whenever they feel like going to easy on these chicks out here. Chick just broke down what @Emperor_ReinScarf been saying for awhile.

N#ggas need to pay attention and always keep a few chicks in the clip. One is so close to none.

Peace

:what: This has nothing to do with gender, but of course you made it into a gender issue. Both men and women shyt on commitment, either through infidelity or divorce. I'd rather someone divorce me than cheat on me and not really love me though.
