Today, I met up with my 'on again, off again' girlfriend of 4 years that I'm still madly in love with. We've been broken up for a few months and she's been dating someone else. We talked about possibly trying things again. When I got home, I found out she's engaged. FML

It's time to move on now. You deserve someone who will commit to you and there are plenty more nice girls out there!

Wow, no need for that. I hate when people lead someone on like that.

Without her side of the story, I think you read into the conversation way more than was there.

My ex has done this to me for ten years now. It is a power and control thing. I have a kid, so I have to talk to mine, but now I only talk to him about our kid (if you have a kid, I advise you to do the same). If you have no ties to her, completely cut her off, don't let her have that power. Sorry she is messing with your feelings.

Maybe you didn't get it when you said work things out it depends on the way you said it

And this is why on again, off again relationships are stupid. You break up for a reason. The definition of insanity is trying the same thing over and over expecting different results. Sorry but you brought it on yourself. Once you break up, move on.

As I say about everything, relationships aren't really a one-size-fits-all scenario. Yes, people break up for reasons, but those reasons are many, and can vary from something inane to something egregious. There are people I know who are (seemingly happily) married to people they've broken up with previously.

There's a difference between breaking up once and getting back together years later after both people have matured, or breaking up once and having that be a wake up call to the fact that you really love each other, and breaking up repeatedly and constantly getting back together due to familiarity or good sex, or some other reason that's not enough to stop the next break up. The first can lead to a romantic story, the second only to frustration.

Having a relationship that's on and off again for four years! That's really ridiculous. If you were so madly in love with her you would of tried harder. But now she's engaged so your lost.

If you liked it, you shoulda put a ring on it. Someone beat you to it

And that, OP, is why you've been off and on. Move on, dude, she's unreliable.

I'm guessing The only reason this is a YDI is because you tried to make things work when it was clear she wasn't dedicated, so you wasted your time and should know better?

Or the fact that he's messing around with an ex who has BEEN with someone for a few months. They're both in the wrong, so I don't believe anybody is a victim except his ex's current fiancé.
