My sympathies on the loss of the relationship you hoped for.

But congratulations on gaining the freedom to go and build an even better life.

I’m not a big hugger, so I’ll just pat your back and make comforting sounds. There, there, it’ll be okay.

Sounds to me like maybe he’s a sex addict, and we all know that addicts must come to a rock bottom, right? So I’d be a good friend to him and go ahead and let everyone know about what he did, so that he might reach that bottom sooner, and then the sooner he can get help. 🙂

I’m just so sad about the life that we have lost. I can’t believe how much I hate him.QUOTE]

Here’s another hug or two, and a fistfull of tissues should you need them. Go ahead if you feel like it. But don’t be too sad about the life you’ve lost. Think about what it really would have been like, with him still doing this kind of thing. Hang around here, get the support you need, cry if you need to, but don’t waste too much energy hating him. He’s just not worth your time. And there’s better out there.

Well, I sort of know what it’s like. The internet hadn’t been invented back then, so my fella had to settle for waving his thing around at various girls in real life. Eventually our fourteen year old neighbor felt guilty enough about “borrowing” my boyfriend to tell me about it. Feels like a punch in the stomach, doesn’t it? I’m sorry you had to deal with this jerk, but congratulations on your escape!

I never pass up a chance to hug a pretty girl. Just something refreshing and life-affirming about it. So, ((((((mhairi2222))))))

Okay, now, let me see if I understand: The man in your life was making video of himself engaged in onanism, then sending the video to other women? Is that something women want to see? I mean, what the …???

Sending you hugs and chocolate - and know that you’re better off now and free to find a guy who treats you the way you SHOULD be treated.

Chicks on the internet are (or can be) weird, man, and sometimes want to see weird things. That’s all I’m going to say to sum up my “long-distance-relationships with people I’ve never met in person” days (back in the heady days of the early internet, before being nerdy was cool).

**mhari2222** , I never understand what possesses people to go and do things like that–shouldn’t everyone know by now that internet goings-on are just as real as phone or letters or whatever? Regardless, _hugs_.

I had one serious boyfriend in high school. Should’ve broken up with him when I graduated and went away to college, but somehow my lust drive and my emotions got mixed up and I decided to see if a long distance thing would work. Not more than a month after I am away, he starts seeing another girl and having sex with her. Sometimes when you’re in the middle of a relationship, you can’t see the danger signals well enough to get the heck out of there.

I suggest you sell the ring for as much as you can get and use it toward your driving lessons. The best revenge is to be better off without them.

Gee, reminds me of when I found out a certain “gent” who’d been asking me to marry him and bear his children had been going hunting any and every night I wasn’t “available” (and God was he a lousy lay!).

On one hand it was “man, smoke does get in your eyes, anybody got eyedrops?” and on the other the main feeling was relief that I’d found out before we actually went and got hitched 😛

Hugs, chocolate and bad movies!

Since when is cyber wanking a deal breaker?

Man some women are so picky. I wonder if your ex realizes that the young women he sent those videos to were actually old men.
