My girlfriend of 7.5 months left me, and I need sympathy and opinions on how best to get an ex back

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

A former partner got Teh Jesus and one day came home to announce she was now “a Christian who abhors homosexuality.” I begged, pleaded and in general debased myself in hopes of saving a long-term (gay) relationship

Turns out she was actually more into mortal into a *mortal *guy who was a hardcore Christian sporting a cool “A Real Men Love Jesus” sticker on his Dodge Hemi :cool:

It damn near killed me, but if there’s one thing I’ve learned it’s not to stand between someone and whatever flying spaghetti monster he or she decides to worship (mortal or Guy-in-the-Sky thing).

Something I’ve found very useful and tried to apply in my life when relationships, jobs, and so on are done but I’m having trouble letting go all the way: https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/anxiety-files/201409/letting-go-sunk-costs

In the meantime, I suggest you scream, punch pillows, say bad words, and have a few drinks.

Even worse is the 7.5 inch moth. ::shudder::

Don’t pursue her. These two statements tell me that you’re not interested in taking seriously anything that she has to say. She told you why she broke up with you, and you dismissed it as “horseshit.” She’s found something that’s important to her, and you’ve dismissed it as “bs.”

Seriously, it’s going to suck, but the the thing to do now is accept that the relationship is over. Find something that makes you feel better and do it. Go to the gym and beat the crap out of some sandbags if you need to work off the pain. But do not, under any circumstances, hassle this woman about getting back together.

This is a zombie thread, the OP is long gone.

Good point. Whomever OP was pursuing, she’s got a 10-month head start by now. She’s gone man, just gone. :frowning:
