Please stop me texting him ;-(

[bridgetjonesislovely]

Please help me get a grip. Split from guy on Monday that I had been seeing for 10 weeks I thought at the time that he was perfect for me.

It all went very fast and I was swept off my feet totally. He ended things because he said he was scared of getting hurt again as his partner of 9 years cheated on him. They had been apart for a year when I started seeing him.

I deleted his numbers , photos, told myself I am strong, his loss. Somebody better out there for me and all that stuff.

So why oh why do I miss him so much and why do I want to text him and tell him that? I'd have to go into my online phonebill to get his number as I wanted to make it hard for myself (when I'd had too much wine) to text him stuff.

I know i'd feel stupid and hate myself if I did contact him. Is this normal to feel like this? And how can i get a damn grip

Yes, chill Bridget. He will contact you if he is interested/worth it; I don't buy his excuse...suspect that he might be a player?

Yes it's been a sleepless night, just going over stuff (torturing myself on how unlovable I am!! - it will pass)...but I have say that I laughed more than I have for months when read your post:o..sorry!..know it can't have been funny at the time.

I bet he turned out to be be a right git!! some poor woman probably did marry him and has lived to rue? the day.

Well we do get to an age where we wonder what ever happened to whats-his-name? Definitely start the thread, I'll definitely post..many a sorry near miss tales to tell.

Bridget also met someone a few weeks ago, far to soon I know!! and he sort of did the same, only saw him a couple of times and lots of chasing from him, and when he thought he had me in the bag...pooof..off he went!!, to be fair though he has got a bit going on at the moment...but agree with everyone else, take it from someone who has done a lot of chasing in her time...steer clear...under no circumstances do you want to get into a push-me pull-me relationship, it will do your confidence no good at all.

Oh, it is funny. It wasn't at the time although, to be honest, I've always been fairly "Teflon coated" when it comes to piss taking/name calling and even as a child/teenager it didn't really bother me...

It was the cheesy song references that have shamed scarred me!

please tell me the song wasn't 'puppy love'!

or "I'm not in love..."
or maybe something by Abba..?

BelleDameSansMerci at Fri 27-Aug-10 10:35:43 is exactly right

Oh God,worse, much, much worse... I can't remember why but it was . WTF was I thinking???

well as long as you didn't have the eyeshadow!!! Not made you feel any better have I!!!!

I can't believe that my 14/15 year old self would consider Barbara Dixon a suitable source of romantic expression. I was 15 not 45 (which I am nearly now)...

actually her voice sounds lovely !!!
