Way to rub it in, Dad

Hey, OPs dad handled it better than others parents might have. when my first girlfriend broke up with me, my dad said things like good for her, she probably feels great, and son, she was probably the only hot girl you were ever gonna get, dont be mad you lost her, be happy you kept her for this long.

#21 that should be an FML

Yea, he's just trying to help. Masturbation is a cure-all.

wasn't funny.

This is why I have no emotions

That must have been awkward.

First!!!! Also, rubbing does help if you're itching.

third**

He's just jerking your chain...

Depending on your age, this could be sound advice.

I think how long they were together would be more of a factor than his age.

8 - I wouldn't think that would be a factor at all. You can be completely in love with someone for a long time before actually "being with" them as a couple. And someone can mean the world to you even if you've only known them a short time.

Good advice.

I agree. Perfect advice

Not bad advice

It'll get better OP don't worry :) it hurts right now but trust me eventually you will find the girl who is perfect for you and will love you for who you are. In the mean time, try spending most of your free time with friends and family to keep your mind off of her. Good luck OP :)

Why lie to him? It's a possibility he'll never find the "right" girl. Many men don't.

My "right" girl is my right hand.

@shyeahh: I'm a lefty

Some of us just got to the point we don't care. If something comes along then it's ok but if it doesn't then there is always rubbing one off (or paid escorts).

Not as easy as your dad thinks it is. Sorry for the heartbreaking experience op.

I'm sure his dad has more experience than he does.

I'm sorry OP. Things will get better with time. People sometimes have trouble finding words to say to people in times of need.

Your dad sounds pretty cool...if it was my dad he would've said "about damn time".…
