4ever: Im picky too lol!! I've met 2 guys since me and my ex have broken up and all had no connection what so ever! They were nice but I didn't see anything long term developing...then there was another guy I work with...we talked all the time at work through the instant msger system on Outlook and became really good friends. He had a gf and I don't date ppl I work with (he was an exception though after a while) so I didn't think anything of it...but his gf broke up with him (she always dogs him out but he stays with her. Why,idk!) so then me and him started talking a little outside of work and eventually started hanging out but he made it clear that he didn't know what the future held with him and his ex so he didn't want to string me along. I understood and appreciated it! It helped me not invest my feelings into him. Honestly, he would had been the perfect guy for me.(aside from my ex) He's funny,handsome,smart,a go getter,a gentlemen...everything a girl could want! But can't have him because he's not emotional available ya know? So since Jan, he is the ONLY guy I've met who has made me forget my ex and WANT to move on. Everyone else are duds lol
In general, I always felt like my ex was my SM from our first date and I honestly think he might have felt the same way. After our first date, he was ALREADY making plans for our weekend,before we even walked out of the restaurant lol. Our connection was so strong. Since high school to now (im 24), I have NEVER felt that connection with not ONE of my bf's or even someone I dated. I remember after our first date, I called my mom right when I got in the car and when she picked up the phone I said "Mom! He's perfect"...I just want that feeling back. I mean doesn't it mean something that our connection was so strong!? Well to me it does but guess not him. From last time I saw/heard, he has a gf (some rebound chick..started dating her right after we broke up). He confided in me a month after our break up that even though he was with this girl, he missed me, always thought about me, wasn't over and that I didn't compare to her...he even suggested we get together and talk about things..I of course said yes because I loved him and wanted us to work out our issues (mainly communication and a little of his selfishness but that's another story lol)...but 2 days later when i texted him and asked him when he'd like to get together he told me " I was thinking and Ima try to work things out with this girl". WHAT! I was sooooooooooooooooooooooo pissed! Like how dare you come to ME and say you wanted to talk about us..it wasn't MY idea, it was HIS! and then 2 days later your feelings just change? I for sure told him how wrong he was for that, how this chick is only a rebound because he's scared to be alone (in my opinion) and how he doesn't like her because if he did he wouldn't had been telling me all he did. Also told him how could he say he wanted to get together after he knew how i felt and he knew I wanted us to be back together and then just leave me in the cold!IMO, He could had at least gotten together with me,talked about it then said "hey you know what, it's not gonna work" but to say lets do this then change your mind 2 DAYS later. I was definitely mad and he knew I was....and ever since then, he's ignored my last two texts to him within these 9 months (one to say happy bday and the other to see how he was)
I always feel like I get the short end of the stick..no matter how much I try...I'm always on the losing end.
