Breakups & Divorce Support Group
Just broke up with someone or in the midst of a difficult divorce? Breaking up is difficult no matter what the circumstances are. They say that time heals all wounds, but sometimes a listening ear or a hug can work wonders for the heart. Whether you need a place to vent, someone to hold you to No Contact, or need advice about what to do, we're here to help.
If she is your ex, it is probably for good reason. I would leave her your ex.
If ur absolutely honest about the flirt thing that she misunderstood than u have 2 options. Either you take het back but be prepared for a long rocky road ahead as she just doesn't trust you. Or just stay exes. This sounds like the better option in ur case.
Don't go back to her. Never go back ever anyway. It never works.
She's left you, boom. Gone.
If you go back you go back to something broken and stuck together with sellotape. In ten minutes it'll be broken again. Find a new girl. Take your mistakes and learning to the new girl. Start with a nice fresh clean relationship that isn't already a mess.
Chick is clearly off her trolley. You're being dragged around by the excitement and confusion. Learn to get out without understanding. Otherwise you're going to be stuck with cray cray chick for life. She is manipulating you. Probably gave you the kick as a power trip, regretted getting rid of her favourite dog to kick, wants you back to kick you some more.
Just imagine what she's going to do next: probably get pregnant. Then she'll REALLY be able to kick you around.
I don't know why she contacted you, maybe she feels lonely, maybe she feels regret, maybe she feels she was unfair, maybe she wants you to want her, or maybe she really just loves you, no idea. Her saying I would forgive you if you cheated, is insane, if she has truly been cheated on that's not just something you can forgive, so that's bullshit. It sounds very complicated it it sounds like u were doing fine while broken up, I would leave it broken up if I was you. If you want to see though if things could work out, I would first sit down together and really chat about her and ur expectations, especially what she expects from you to "prove" you're not lying. Good luck
You sound desperate and needy, you pedestalize her and idealise relationships, which makes a poor judge of character :it makes you vulnerable and easy to manipulate : that’s why you can’t see what everybody (all your friends and therapist ) is seeing: that she is crazy.
You are not grounded and confident enough as a man to objectively call her out on her wrong behaviour : even when she’s clearly at fault you automatically blame yourself for anything wrong. And that is very unattractive to a woman : because on a conscious and/or subconscious level she knows what’s going on : she’s shi’t testing you and you are failing dismally.
Your girlfriend was/is cheating on you :
“ If a woman suspects or accuses you of cheating, she is guaranteed to be cheating on you. Women always project their insecurities onto others :”
“. . . . if i stopped lying to her “, “ . . . She hated that. She had a hidden camera in our apartment . . later used it to spy on me because she thought i was cheating “, “. . .blames me for what i did”, “ . . got mad at me because i was helping my friend out “, “. . my ex went through my phone and read the message”, “. . She even said she would forgive me if i cheated”
Lol, you have the answers to your problem, but you don’t realize it.
Finally to answer your question, “ So why would she be reaching out? That’s what confuses me So much”
This one is easy, it didn’t work out with the other guy she was cheating on you with, or the guy she was hoping to move on to – ‘ monkey branching’.
Since that new plan A, didn’t go as planned, you are now her plan B, until the next best option comes alone. That’s why she' was gaslighting you, making you believe it was your fault that she left you, so that she can always fall back to you as a safety net, since u wouldn’t reject her.
Rarely does a woman end a relationship with her man just to be single, she ends it for another.
