    eel doesn’t really seem that big a deal to me, is this the first time you have said no to him? i don’t see the harm in hitting him up though to see whats up with him. Sounds like y’all left it at a dead kind of point after the no.

    I’m doing fine, my ex and I start working together again next week, which she has a lot of mixed feelings about, and we ran into each other while i was talking to managers and she seemed a bit frustrated and her boyfriend right now doesn’t like it either, not really too worried about it or the past at this point. not looking to get back together, isnt my main focus.

    prolly just wait it out and act like it didn’t happen. have you hit him up since ?

    whats the hangouts been like on the weekends? like conversation and activity wise

    You should feel the way you feel, it just sounds like the lovey stuffy isn’t his focus right now but may be a phase. How long you are willing to wait it out kind of depends. If you feel like you can’t take it off your mind or view it different you have to talk about it with him and let him know that. You might be scared he will want to break it off but if y’all wanna stay together you have to let him know he is kind of going back in his word in a way.

    But I say give it a few weeks and kind of focus on yourself and what you have going on. You may be putting too much energy and dependence on him again. Like I said it’s completely understandable but you might have to
    Wait it out and give him space for a bit without mentioning it’s bothering you and see if changes, if not I suggest talking about it again.

    Likely not the best time to bring it up but give it some thought before voicing the concern if you need to

    Well you have to talk eventually about that, for months I had to leave my Gf Monday-Thursday most weeks to work and spend time on weekend which we also worked together. I didn’t think she thought too much or it effected her to much because she never said that, I was focused on our future and building something of a career to take care of her and the kid so maybe he is thinking abou you

    Yeah you have to chill haha it will be fine

    and I’m the type to reassure the “i love you babe don’t worry” but with the past relationship I didn’t really do that often because i was focused on so much other stuff and just kind of banked on her assuming those words instead of saying them. but i don’t like to apologize, and i don’t really like to hear apologies either, just okay with something funny or fun and moving on.

    sounds like you are letting the anxiety get the best of you. So keep it together, because he will eventually feel like he will have to choose between you and work if he feels provoked overtime work comes up. i understand its kind of eating at you but you can’t lean into the old ways of handling things, you got back with him because you felt you was good and he was good so honor that with yourself, and you gotta put space in timing with men about your request, like he might be able to say those comforting words more often but it isnt the time to bring it up. too many complaints at one time lead to bad results.

    take a breath, thing positive and maybe get little more loose on your expectations. Sounds like you are expecting a lot and it isnt happening just yet so it automatically makes you anxious

    yeah very true πŸ™‚ as it happens you have to let it out in the moment, after the moment passes you either bottle it up or let it go, but letting it go def is a happier route, until a situation happens again and you are free to talk about it then.

    only have a talk if its really just killing you and you think you are gonna do it, then have the open talk but focusing on letting go is good. Unless he does something just CRAZY you know haha but some little stuff won’t matter in a few weeks if even a few days πŸ˜›

    Oh yeah I forgot y’all had plans. I completely understand you feeling the neglect though. You have good reason to be all in all, just keeping your emotions from getting too wild you have to accept it and let it go.

    but with your history, i think its fair to feel how you feel, so yeah i suggest you have that honest talk about the β€œI value this relationship/here are my flaws”

    Just because like I said before, it will give you a feeling of freedom, and it will take your communication to a different level. Im sure right now you have the very bottled up feeling where you can’t express yourself in fear of messing up the relationship, and telling him that will make you feel free. Coming to us for advice, as a buffer is great for where you are at, but moving to a position where you can rest in the support of your partner is where you really want to be. So actively working on yourself is great and having him knowing how you feel and where you are at will only encourage him to help you along that road.

    If you feel that he loves you enough to hear that and not judge you for it and respect your honesty, it will work wonders for your relationship but more importantly for yourself.

    Just if you still feel the need to say something, which I’m sure you will lol

    Just gonna let you know it really isnt a good idea lol if you keep bringing it up, it comes off annoying at a point. And he will likely take offense. I understand him wanting to go alone though, because if you are there I’m sure he can work and you be okay with just being around him. But if my girlfriend is around i wouldn’t be able to keep myself honest and work without feeling the want/need to entertain her. So sometimes if its work it makes sense for him to do it alone. Its also hard to navigate, if he has to make random trips while he is out there and meet people ect. Maybe best course is to accept it, and then just be sweet about it and let him know you wanna go on a trip just you two when y’all get a chance πŸ™‚

    but his mind is clearly made up, it was best for him to do it alone, so there really isnt any changing his mind on that, its only problems at the end of that road. When any person has their mind made up, provoking them to see it your way is always bad way of motivation.

    Don’t get lost in feeling like you have to keep bringing it up because it didn’t go the way you wanted, focus on the positive. Also it was a good step towards communication that you brought it up in the first place

    yeah you have to take a chill pill haha

    Lesson I learned from just about every relationship I have been in, if you focus on whats wrong things will def go wrong. So focus on the positives in your relationship with him. I think it would be best to let this situation go, because you will always think “Oh yeah I have to say this about it too!” but you seem to know yourself well and it would be wise to put great effort into focusing on that, fixing whatever issues about yourself you may have and things will be easier to operate.

    One of my girlfriends that worked really well for me, i just told her point blank. “Hey i really like/love (which ever you are comfortable with) you and I want things to workout so I just wanna say, this is how I have been in the past (stating things I’m prone to do) but I really want to work on that personally and i just want you to know i don’t want to be like that or make those mistakes because i value this relationship” so its kind of being really open which is tough for most, but it puts yourself in a position to keep yourself honest, and when these situations come up and you are slipping into old habits your partner can recognize it and understand it before there is an issue.

    As far as this situation goes, just let it go. If it happens again you can revisit the talk, but you have to let it go and get it off your mind and your heart or it’ll just keep bothering you and eventually cause problems, especially if he isnt really thinking about it. He prolly thinks its no big deal, which to me it isnt. I understand how it would make you feel, but he didn’t do it on purpose he is just kind of living.

    Don’t let him get comfortable in the future putting you on pause as he does things though, if it financially is a situation it’ll be hard to bring both you along on these trips, understandable but if he is able to bring you on occasion and doesn’t want to then you have to deal with that when it comes, but i think this situation happened, wasn’t the best situation but it can be let go.

    Not gonna lie, its kind of a fail lol! but not completely bad, sounds like you just didn’t know how to go about it without getting “too serious” or attacking, and jealous prolly wasn’t the word, maybe “disappointed” would be better, because for some reason people remember jealous and it sticks in the mind in a negative way.

    But I only say its a fail just because you kind of made it about that one event and not really about how it makes you feel in general if he doesn’t really consider you when it happens. Some trips it really is best to go alone, but its good for him to kind of do all the text/calling to let you know he misses you etc and maybe try to do something special when you get back, but guys don’t get it while in the moment. But to bring it up again without him bring it up would come off nagging and problematic to him so I guess it would be best to drop it at this point until the situation comes up again in the future

    I think its fair you feel that way πŸ™‚ He likely doesn’t realize it, and you might just have to have a talk about it and let him know you don’t think he is doing it on purpose just let him know how it is perceived by you if he doesn’t communicate that you aren’t being put on the back burner and not though about.

    BUT comparing relationships is easy to do but def not healthy for your relationship but i def understand it especially when everybody around us is heading in the direction we wanna go.

    But I have been in his position and its nice having a girlfriend who isnt bugging you and giving you freedom, but its very easy for a guy to get comfortable in that and lose some of the value in putting importance on you also at the same time while he is involved with the things going on with him that is new and exciting.

    All in all communication is key so you def gonna want to just bring it up in the most none confront or confrontational way possible. πŸ™‚

    @Ras217
    yeah just living is better wording πŸ™‚ thats really cool, glad y’all didn’t let a good thing go to waste! Is he feeling better about his own situations now you think?

    And we don’t talk still currently,so I honestly wouldn’t know where the conversation would come from. Ive basically been living in a different city since the break up, but ill be moving back so we will prolly start running into each other again. I know she is happy though right now without relationships, with me or anybody else (or she tries to make it look that way). Its cool seeing that she was happy though and doing for herself.

    All in all the next 6-7 month i will be around a lot more often now and I figure we will run into each other, maybe that conversation will come up if we are on friendly terms again. But yeah she still has a lot of my stuff apparently that could have been thrown away or shipped to me, etc. But my friend said she doesn’t bring me up to him anymore really for advice when I send stuff or contact, and I don’t really talk to him about her anymore either, because like i said I think he was crossing the wrong wires between us playing middle man.

    But my job gives me the option to transfer to where she is basically, which i have debated, because it might come of really bad or really good i don’t know haha or another location that i don’t really want to work so I’ve got a good 2 weeks to decide.

    @dopierk yeah I think its weird, but it seems she is having fun again and being independent of relationships in general not just with me so its cool to see. I would just drive myself crazy obsessing over it though.

    Has anything changed with you? Not just in relation to your ex but for yourself personally.


    @ras217
    sounds like y’all are taking it slow and its working out , thats really great πŸ˜€

    Yeah its all good how was it? πŸ™‚

    The letter didn’t really do much as far as getting us re connected. Neither did I hear from her on my birthday either, which had me a little disappointed for a few hours but I got over it. My friend says she took the key to the apartment I returned (it has a special design on it) but she attached it to one of the gifts, which was a key chain and she replaced her old key chain with the new one I got her and she carries it around with that key. Also the letter I wrote (half expected to be thrown away) she keeps at the top of her night stand still, my friend went and saw it while visiting. I was trying to make sense of it at a point but I’m letting it go now. Was some weird energy when I was back around our mutual friends because they was having to pick and choose how to hangout with both of us without us both being in the same group. But if she really wanted to talk or anything she would have already so I’ve given up on that, and the letter made me feel a lot better about letting it go and I’ve kind of started putting distance in information about my life to our close mutual friend because Im realizing him playing middle friend is actually more damaging than good.

    We might end up working together at the same place again soon, so that’ll be a thing i guess when it happens haha But putting a lot of effort into getting over the old fantasy of what could of been back in the past and focusing on whats to come in the future
