Love: It's certainly some sort of proposal

It's certainly some sort of proposal

By imaloser - 06/07/2009 23:27 - Canada

Today, I thought my boyfriend of six years was going to propose to me. We're high school sweethearts and he was my first. Just as he was looking into my eyes he said, "I've been seeing someone else for two years and I'm choosing her over you... it was a tough decision." FML

What happened?

Today, after 5 and a half years, my boyfriend had spent months talking about proposing before the end of the year. He'd picked out a ring, told all his friends, and couldn't stop talking about our future. He then dumped me over the phone out of the blue. FML

Goddammit, Facebook!

Today, my boyfriend of three years told me he isn't sure about me anymore. He said he saw a quote on Facebook that a guy can be with a girl for 10 years, then leave, and be with a girl for one and marry that girl. Meanwhile, I've been planning on the rest of my life with him in my head. FML

Close, but no cigar

Today, my long-distance boyfriend of 3 years uttered the heartbreaking words, “I met this girl here in my hometown and she’s really great and we fell in love with each other, I can’t do this anymore. We’re over.” I was planning on moving to his town after graduation this year. FML

Today, after three months of going back and forth between staying with my boyfriend and leaving him for someone else, I finally made the decision to go for the other guy. When I told him, he admitted to never seeing himself with me, as he "doesn't do cheaters." FML

Today, I'd been getting ready to hear my boyfriend's proposal, as his friends had told me he'd talked to them about planning it. He showed up at my house out of the blue… to tell me he's breaking up with me, only to find out he proposed to his ex hours later. FML

Wow, that sucks....I'm sorry. Hope the next few months are okay for you. On the bright side - way to dodge a bullet. If he did it once, chances are he'll do it again.

he is a heel for stringing you on for so long. it hurts, I know. you'll get through it. just don't start sleeping around or do any revenge stuff. it feels good in the short run, but in the long run, you'll regret it.

Evidently, you weren't the better option... FYL for losing the game that is life. Oh, and btw, I just lost the game

Hey. That sucks. But I've been through it. I learned that (aside from here) nobody wants to hear stories of what went wrong, but they love to hear what you did about it. Make this a triumph. Hell, if he really was the one you wanted, go fight for him. Love until you can't, and then regret nothing, because you aren't the one who gave up. Hang in there. (Or forget him and move on. But it's your choice, not us schmucks on a website choosing for you.)

Even though it's painful now, consider that he did a great favor for you. If he had no qualms about carrying on an affair while you were dating, it's difficult to think that he'd do otherwise if you were married. In fact, feel sorry for the other woman, she obviously has no idea what she's getting herself into. Go out there and live it up, OP. It's a blessing in disguise.

that sucks. but believe me when i say it that HS relationships rarely last. you are not alone. people grow and change and 99% of the time, a couple who are suited when they are 16 may not be suited a few years down the line. you will learn from this relationship, and although it doesn't feel like it now, things will get better.

FYL, but he did you a favor. I can't say I've been in a relationship, simply because I've been single my whole life but I do know enough about relationships to know that your ex is a dickweed. Sure, being single hurts sometimes, but you learn to get over the pain and move on. Be happy that you aren't tied down anymore. Be free, fly away, learn who you really are. Then go back and try for someone else who's faithful to you. Unless you're not addicted to your romantic freedom. I know I am. ; )
