Boyfriend and I have been arguing and I asked for a break; he's immediately out dating other women

Anonymous
My girlfriend wanted a break from her husband. She told him she wanted a 6 month break. His therapist told him it was over and he should start dating. He started dating. My girlfriend was pissed that her husband was dating.

A break means it is over.

And 10/10 he’s just trying to get back at you

Don’t feed into it, asking for a break is the first steps of an official break up.

If that’s not what you wanted then I wouldn’t of threatened it.



I view a break as a time to pause and think about things. I didnt even want an official "break" just for my own space back so he wouldnt be in my tiny apartment for a few nights.


What he's trying to do is establish that when you set a boundary, he can just go out and sleep with another woman. He wants you to feel insecure in the relationship.

Once his dong touches another woman's P it's over and done with. Men are clingy and needy.

You seem very immature.


What's wrong with needing a few days to think, in her own house?

Op, I hope you're done with him now. Whatever questions you had about your relationship have probably been answered.

He was out with someone else the next day? Well, there's your answer.

That’s not true. They don’t always come crawling back. Not if they moved on. Sure, if they can’t or didn’t get better and the guy is lonely or horny, he will want to see her.

I have dated guys and never looked back. This goes both ways.

For some people the other person or relationship was more meaningful to them with deep feelings. But not everyone is the same. Women can easily hookup with any man regardless how they look and women are on cute men like white on rice.

the Stacy vibes are strong in this one…hopefully she doesn’t gift him a gun rack on their anniversary!

Stacy: Happy anniversary, Wayne.
Wayne: Stacy, we broke up two months ago.
Stacy: Well, that doesn't mean we can't still go out, does it?
Wayne: Well, it does actually, that's what breaking up is.

News flash. He’s not that into you. He’s moved on.

He sleeps over at my place every night and I wanted some time off and to be able to think on my own and get away from him. He's out with another girl tonight and posted it on his social media (she tagged him in a story and he reposted it). It's embarrassing that our mutual friends will see it and obviously it bothers me that he may sleep with these other girls. He is attractive and gets lots of female attention and he basically told me that if we went on a break he would go see other women but told me he wouldnt sleep with them. I feel like this is really outrageous and disgusting behavior. He also blocked me after our last argument when I asked for a break, so i feel like the whole distance is his fault as well.


He called your bluff. You got what you asked for. For him to publicize it speaks volumes. Use this experience to choose better next time. You were not compatible to begin with.

LOL!

Are you mental? We broke up. Get the net!

OP, with all the fighting, you aren’t a good fit. He’s showing that he literally doesn’t care about you. You can do better. Dump him for good (and don’t just take a break).

Imagine if OP had been the one to immediately date?

- you all would be like, “you GO girl!” and “Yeah!” and “get some!!”

DTMF - then figure out what is missing from your life that causes you to end up in dramatic relationships like these

I was very insecure in my 20s and went through a similar relationship- Once I read able to see that I really, truly deserved better, I was able to walk away.
