Q: My Valentines Day Nightmare, A True Story

I must admit I was a little ho-hum on Valentines day, I was single, lonely, and a little depressed, until my exboyfriend/still friend called me and asked if I wanted to hang out. I obliged, because he was just visiting town and I don't get to see him that much. So, I go, So, we drink a couple of beers, talk, have fun. We both left my friends house at the same time and he basically asked me if I wanted to hang out some more, one-on-one. So, I'm not really tired, so once again I obliged. We went back to his house and watched a movie, in which during the opening credits we ended up fooling around, ultimately having passionate sex for about 3 hours. Now, i wouldn't normally do this, but exs have chemistry, and I know it's wrong, and the alcohol lowered my common sense a little also. So, basically, we had sex on valentines day, and I was a bit grateful because Im single and was getting the Valentines blues.

BUT THEN....After I got home, I discovered he had left his phone in my car. So, I told myself...NO. I'm not going to look through it. So, I didn't...at first. He called it using his moms phone and told me he was coming to pick it up. Then, I looked down at the picture of his wallpaper. It was a picture of a bunch of my old friends....so, reminescing, I went to his photo album....only to find...pictures of a naked chick taken about SIX hours before he had first called me. It was taken on Feb. 14. OMG. First damn pictures that showed when you opened up his photo album.

What did I do? - Stewing inside my head, at first I planned on waiting for him to come get it and walk out to car with the phone open waving the picture of her in his face...calling him a man-wh*re, a**hole, telling him to never speak to me again, but no, I have no control over what he does, he's not my boyfriend anymore so I couldn't be that irate.

BUT...what I did do was call him and told him I'm leaving for the store and that I was leaving his phone in my mailbox. I also set the FAT girls breasts (forgive me) to the wallpaper..So....how upset would you be in this situation?

There is a small chance that they were sex-texting pictures to each other. Like, sending pictures of private parts. Because there was a picture of his genetalia in his photo album too, taken around the same time, and day. I don't actually know if it was actually HIM that took the pics of HER, but if it was, thats even more hurtful. But honestly, I was too shocked to even know what to do....I didn't think he was like that. And if he had sex with her just hours before he had sex with me....gah, I feel the need to shower, AGAIN. I've taken 2 showers today out of pure disgust.

I was EXTREMELY hurt by this and plan on never talking to him again. He gave me a good Valentines Day romp only for me to discover that crap. I admit that I still had feelings for him, even though we broke up almost 3 years ago, he continued to talk to me, basically leading me on. And he's a complete mind-f*ck too. He is very submissive and quiet, and never argues, and he tells you everything you want to hear. He has gone so far to say that his biggest regret is not doing better in our relationship and he thinks he would be better and happier today if he was with me. He has said that I am the best thing that has ever happened to him and that he would marry me if he could. He says basically everything that a lonely single girl wants to hear. I'm not falling for it anymore. Despite his stigma of being the sweetest, kindest guy on the planet, he's a complete player who has mastered the game. Screw him.

I must admit I am proud that I handled this in a dignified manner. I'm glad I didn't confront him face to face because I am pretty sure I would have blown a fuse, telling him what I really thought of him. And I think it was pretty clever to put the picture as his wallpaper, because that tells him without speaking that I know what he's all about, and he'll hopefully catch my drift that we are not on speaking terms anymore.

Thanks in advance for reading....

Actually I would have done the same thing.

Has he tried to contact you since gathering his phone?

No, he hasn't, and I'm glad. Finally I saw with my own eyes that he is a JERK.
It wasn't the fact that there was a naked girl on his phone, that wouldn't have bothered me either way, but it was the first picture that I saw. I thought, hmm, she's from the same town as me so I wanted to check the date. It said that the picture was taken 2 or 3 hours before he initially called me to "hang out". Thats what made me mad. I've been very upset by this.
And sorry for the language in the post I was very angry when I wrote it. I know the mods reviewed it, but I already replied to it so I can't go back and edit it.

Why are you so upset? I hate to say this but I think you should have known where that was leading instead of falling for it hook line and sinker. Any guy that claims he doesn't realize a single woman is feeling a little desperate and unwanted on Valentine's Day is lying. And any woman who is single, depressed and lonely and thinks that she can drink and see an ex without having sex with him is delusional.
Just put it behind you. You both got what you wanted: sex and companionship.

thanks for the tough love deragram...
I already have put it behind me but I am up for consolments none the less. I knew what position I was putting myself in when I went to see him and I also knew the position I putting myself in when I looked at his pictures.
Sometimes, I just dive off the deep end, and mess stuff up between myself and others.
Also I think that the fact that I hadn't hung out with anyone for almost 3 months beforehand was also a factor. Too bad he's the only person besides 2 other friends who contacts me still. Actually, now I'm only down to the 2 other friends.

You're welcome. I know we women need to vent sometimes but (although you are pretty mad at him) you are probably madder and more disappointed with yourself. Been there, done that! I just didn't think it was a good idea to nurse your anger towards him.
I wish you lots of luck in finding someone more deserving of you.
Take care,
Margaret

thank you margaret, I must say I don't have many friends in the small town that I live in, it seems everyone are two-faced backstabbers, HONESTLY, lol. Also, most of the people who would know about stuff firsthand that I could talk to know him well and I don't want to go blabbering to them.
So basically what I do when a guy angers me I go on random forums and get unbiased points of views, with this particular (popular with everyone) guy would have felt good to hear how much of a jerk he was for once though, but I guess I don't need a bunch of random people telling me that...I'm over it now. Actually, I was over it about a day after it happened..haha. I'm good at rebounding from emotions like that. I was very disappointed in myself. That is the truth.

You're welcome. I'm glad you feel better. If it helps, I had a lousy Vantine's Day too. I'm not in a relationship and wound up watching my 18-month old nephew so his parents could go on a date. Cute as he is, he's not exactly my ideal date. lol
Take it easy.

I find the decision of having sex with ex boyfriend strange because he's an ex for a reason...Was it the alcohol? Or the familiarity, knowing he will satisfy you because he's done that before and knows what you like?

The sad truth is a lot of guys will do anything to get laid out of desperation. Find that one that has integrity and won't sell his soul for it.

I would have chosen a far worse form of revenge than you, like call all his girlfriends and tell what happened. Players deserve no less.

And screw Valentine's Day...I think most people hate it whether they have a relationship or not.
