Q: 2 Months after being dumped and still devastated.

This is my second major relationship I've been in. The first one before was ages 16-19 then off an on for awhile. I mourned that relationship loss incredibly. I was single for years after that and used alcohol to cope. It worked but I remained single and girls seemed to sense my desperation.. Then out of sheer luck, I met a girl at a party who was mistreated by her boyfriend I sort of swooped her up. I was 23 at the time and she was 19. Well this began a really hard relationship to understand. It was a very tumultuous one. We argued daily and we cheated on each other a few times but we still came to a point of loving each other dearly. It was almost like we we're best friends.

After time though, this arguing and her childish behavior started to get at me, even though it was clear in my heart I loved her. But I wondered what else was out there. Maybe I could find someone more compatible.. So I tried.
What happened was she seen my conversations I've had with another girl and she decided it was enough and she left me. Over the christmas holidays we seen each other and hung out like everything was fine, but when I returned to where I work (she lives back home which is 6 hours away and I live in a city where I work) she told me there was no hope between us.

She said the cheating was too much and she could never forgive me. She also told me that she fell out of love with me months ago and said she was blindly trying to save this doomed relationship. I think I made such a HUGE mistake by denying my love for her and I live with so much regret since she left me the pain is unbearable.

I feel like I lost a soulmate, my best friend, my other half. And now she is having sex with other men and continues to remain strong on the fact that she will never EVER come back to me again. She also tells me that I am heartless and don't deserve another chance at love, and this is incredibly painful to hear her say.

honestly, just the fact that the both of you cheated on each other seems to be enough evidence that the relationship wasn't working out..i believe that if you are truly in love you would never put someone through something like that...i think both of you do care about each other, but obviously your relationship was lacking something if you were out cheating...it seems to me like you're just suffering from a heartbreak and feeling lonely which is obviously expected...i dont think getting back in a relationship with her is the best idea...its really hard to gain trust back after someone has cheated..the relationship would probably be more difficult than before

i agree with the others, except for i will add one thing.

keep looking, and STOP CHEATING! you need to place a higher value on your next "real" relationship. don't argue all the freakin' time. stop cheating. that's just not condusive to having a lasting relationship.

i think you and your ex had a lot of growing up to do. it's painful...yes it's very painful...but for people who are dong all the wrong tings there are painful lessons in order.

learn from your mistakes and don't repeat them! not meaning to be harsh, but just totally honest. i wish you (and her) the best of luck, and a chance at love. mostly, i wish you BOTH, protection from yourselves and your self-destructive behaviors.

cheating is bad...to be honest..i dont know if id date a guy that cheated before and were trying to date me...its like a bad resume...makes me paranoid..and i dont want to have to be checkin up on my man all the time...so wipe your slate clean..start over..dont commit to anyone you're not ready to commit to..if you dont wanna be serious and you want just hookups, be upfront about it..its really not worth getting emotionally involved in a relationship when you're going to go out and cheat and mess things up...so do whatever you need to do, have your fun and try not to get serious again until you're actually ready to

Hiya Lethargy.

I'm sorry to hear about that, I understand that you are feeling pretty down right now.

However i think the cheating and arguing in this relationship shows that it really wasn't working out between the two of you. You're probably better off looking for someone else who you will be more compatible with.
And of course you deserve another chance at love.
Good luck and all the best.
Grey.
