    That's too passive . Tell that cheatin' gf you own her. If you turn her loose and she doesn't come back hunt that bich down

    Btw, the old " if you love someone set it free blah blah " is one of the most pathetic cop outs ever . It was bs on its best day and still is.

    If some moron said that to me I'd probably open a can of whoop ass on them

    Some of the deceased do return.
    In my first life I was a river scout for the Lewis and Clark Expedition.
    One day I was killed by two Indians.

    Next thing I know it's 200 years later and I'm an 8 year old boy in a cotton field in Arkansas

    Having only had to get over two in my life I can say exercise and prayer worked for me. Throw in a little alcohol and self reflection along with a new one pretty soon after and you have the solution. You dont own people. People change or you just ignore the obvious. Honestly, the way I view it is that its all learning about individuals and life. Just recall the great parts and great times. Forget your ego and insecurities. You had some fun. You were loved or felt loved and now you have a new door to open. The last one was the real mystery for me. She was 15 yrs younger and so hot. But then after two kids she was done with me. It was hard for awhile but then we divorced and I soon found someone much better. And SUDDENLY, the ex needed me again. But I was done. Focus on yourself not what you supposedly lost. Also, if you have friends spend lots of time with them. Good luck, And Kraken Rum with a little Dr Pepper does wonders at times. Btw cotton and Nathan Bedford made reading this thread for a great morning. Thanks guys.

    I'm feeling kinda low and could use some good advice.

    Take what you learned from the relationship, good and bad. Take some time to improve yourself - physically and or mentally, do something you've always wanted to do. Do something social, volunteer or join a group that does something you enjoy.

    You'd be surprised how quickly you will feel better about yourself, and think less about what wasn't to be in your life.

    Good morning CD. With all due respect it may have had nothing to do with him. She may be just another hollow shell or have an opinion of herself that is far beyond what it should be. If I was him I'd be glad she took a hike and start enjoying life. I'm not sure who agres but even on their best day relationships are very confining and
    Expose the weaknesses and faults of each party.
    I get the feeling she is self centered, lacks empathy, is self centered possibly don't care how it hurts him. I also get the drift from his writings he is fairly intelligent . She may or may not be but I bet my ass she is not as smart , pretty, personable as she thinks . It will be interesting when she gets to the manip9manipulate and control phase of the relationship. He needs to win that round in a big way just to disorient and humble her. I hope he is strong enough to say no when she crawls back. All of the aforementioned mostly if he wants To make it sporting until he decides which round to drop her to the mat.

    This other way is effective to but not much to it.

    Tell her to pull her butt flaps over her ears and kiss her fat ass.

    If she starts running her coksukker say it again. It would be an insult to you for her to think shes so hell yes you have to have her. I'd tell her it's not about being a rude barely house broken maze of delusions it's just she is very rude and life is to short for iffy manners that are even below country ass hillbilly hoi polloi. On a high note at least her ride behavior backs up every word you just said. If she throws tantrums tell her to grow up and move along.

    I don't know the details to make any assumptions, and even if I did, as my occasionally wise father once said, to every story there are two sides: yours, and the $#@!head's.
