He texted last night, and called this morning. It didn't work out with his fling, he says they never had sex she wasn't ready for a relationship. But now I'm dating and talking with a few guys I'm not really sure I want to go back. No one has really proven to be better than him yet. Many were worse.

One guy if he's not a scam is truly better and I'm waiting to see if he passes my test. He's military does one sided video chats, I'm on video he doesn't have a webcam he says, he took my number today to hopefully call me. We've been chatting a few days. I asked him to provide a picture of him holding a piece of paper with the current date on it. He's a day ahead based on where he's at and said he would do it. I hope to see that today.

Of the 3 guys I am chatting with one did it, and put on the paper do you trust me now. I still didn't really and ended up breaking up with him because he made me feel bad about myself. The other guy makes me feel good. I pondered it because he did prove to be real, but still it wasn't a match.

Dating sucks and now my ex is one of the guys I'm chatting with, so I'm filtering him like all the rest of them. This is a better way to date, but it's also more complex.

So, you start to have fun and get a little light in your life and the darkness of your past wants to come shadow you over? I would say "no" very directly. You broke up for a reason. Get mad at me if you want to, because I know this might seem harsh, but seriously is that ex what you truly need in your life to be happy?

Honestly if these men are even worse than your ex that
Possible trigger:
against your will, then I wonder where are you finding these men? You either attract wrong men or looking in all wrong places. I hope you get a therapist soon and get the help you need

Can y'all use the trigger code when you refer to that incident. It's super triggering to read about.

I am sorry, i didn’t think of it. I asked moderators to help with that as I can’t edit or delete anymore. I hope they’ll help with that. I only saw my post, I don’t know who you meant by “y’all”, looks like it’s just me on this thread. OP posted it on many different threads though but I can’t do anything about it. I am taking care of my post though. Sorry again. Thanks for bringing it up

Edit: Already fixed, shortly after me asking. Woohoo!!!! Thank you moderators!

Dating sites. I'm so ugh about those. I get enough dudes asking if I'm gay already.

Your ex wants you back because it didn't work out with his fling? That goes beyond douche. If you haven't found the one that interests you yet, don't settle.

I think it’s super nasty for him to ask you back because some other woman didn’t work out. So disrespectful of him

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
