Breakdown

By Anonymous - 26/07/2015 16:36 - Finland - Vammala

Today, my girlfriend called me and said she needs to take a break from our relationship. Why? Her really clingy ex is really depressed about her dating someone else and he isn't ready to accept it. So she wants to take a break "for his sake" until he's over her. FML

It's a good thing you're taking a break, you can find a better girl than her if she's still concerned about her ex

She doesn't deserve you. And you guys should take a very long break.

I bet you wouldn't be thinking that if you were OP.

I think she is too. just because he's her ex doesn't mean she's supposed to not care about his feelings. it's hard to go from loving someone to not giving a shit. I get the op being angry and upset, but at the same time you have to appreciate having a girl with a big heart. especially when one day, you could be her ex who is still not over her and can't handle seeing her with someone else.

I support #1 and #12. Although OP is totally right to be upset, I don't completely blame his girlfriend for her decision.

You have to be some sort of new breed of dumbass to buy that kind of shit. OP, take this opportunity to find a girl that gives a shit about YOU, not an ex boyfriend. They broke up for a reason, she should be caring for your feelings, not some depressed **** who can't get the **** over it. To anyone who doesn't agree, then go find a girl (or guy) who would not hesitate to break up with you for their ex's "sake". Also, I'm sure by his sake, she really means hop on his dick for a guilt free ride. /endrant

I suspect the girl still has feelings for her ex, or is still somehow emotionally dominated by him. While I get wanting to be nice to your exs, it's ridiculous to put your life on hold for an ex. Especially when that means putting another person on hold too. Personally, if I were the OP, I'd walk away from this. Her current partner should be more important than a previous one.

My god, you're slow. She's lying to him. She just wants to go back to her ex because she probably got her way 99.9% of the time.

I'm just amazed that I took 4 comments before the logic came through. Thank you, 28.

#59 its ok to worry about an ex and how they feel and its no reason to break up. I just think shes worrying a little too much.

There's nothing wrong about being worried about an ex. HOWEVER, she should realize that breaking up with her boyfriend to spend time with him will not make this depressed guy get over her faster. If anything it could send the wrong message and make him cling to her even more.

I'm guessing her and the ex will be on and off for years. Just a feeling.

And you can take "a break" from her. And find someone else to date that truly appreciates you more than their ex

This is one of the few times it's appropriate to respond with, "Dump her ass." It's obviously an excuse to lead to a break up.
