My man just finished with me...[sad]

I just didn't see this coming. He's been acting really paranoid lately. I got so fed up of his moodiness that I told him to sort himself out. I couldn't help him with his mind, I guess.

He told me to enjoy life, but for him it's too late. Sometime, I'd make a joke and laugh but he would sigh. Always in a black mood.

His job is really stressful (in the music industry) and I'm worried this is what's been getting to him.

No advice but I was dumped out of the blue yesterday. Unmumsnetty hug for you, it sucks :(

He's in the music industry and is acting paranoid? Does he take drugs by any chance?

their losses

You had a lucky escape. I married my music industry boyfriend. Then divorced him. Now you can go out with someone new and sparkly. I hope you feel better soon.

sorry to hear that, but dont worry, you have to get over it, take care of yourself, and enjoy the life.

Fuck him. Not too hard to get another one. Easy come, easy go. view it from a man's perspective. Don't let the bastards grind you down xx

Just chill and pamper yourself as often as possible. Do the things you want to do - go see those movies, read all those books you'd meant to get around to, clear out those cupboards, re-organise your wardrobe, get mates round for a bitchfest, or hit the town with your best friend.

Don't be tempted to call/text/email him or engineer 'chance' meetings.

Sometimes we have to set our beloveds free, and sometimes they come home to roost for good - or fly away to share a perch with a bird (no pun intended) of entirely different feathers.

Whatever, take heart and know that there are loads other guys out there who will be only too happy to share love and laughter with you.

Thanks, you're all lovely. I feel bad, my problem is trivial compared to some.

I feelnlike the time we've been together was like a crazy train.

crazy or not, you can do better than someone who makes you feel like shit. You need to place a premium on yourself. Don't settle for the man that makes you feel sad. The decent one is round the corner. Go out with a confident heart and you will find him xx

are 'pimplyteenagers-r-us' out posting this evening?? "their loss" " view it from a man's perspective".
without knowing anything at all about the person or the circs.
hey-ho.

A broken heart is never trivial, gointhruchanges, but. when it comes to romantic ailments, it can be healed.

There's always people worse or better off than we are at any given moment in time - go easy on yourself, and come back for tea and sympathy anytime.

HalfTermHero · 09/05/2011 01:38

Rohanda, some of us are not lying down. Fuck simpering. no one disrespects me. I am not about to advise to take shit.

Rohanda · 09/05/2011 01:48

good for you, halfterm.

HalfTermHero · 09/05/2011 02:08

Too right. I wish Op all the best for a happy and confident future. Life is too short for let downs.

DontCallMePeanut · 09/05/2011 02:23
