I will try and be short.

I met a guy at work 3 years ago, we hit it off but were both in other relationships. Fast forward to Jan this year, we were both single, we got together, it was a bit mad and he dumped me for an on/off relationship.

Early may he returned, all over with the on /off rel. We got closer, had a fling, talked for 6 hrs a day on the phone, all seemed great until last week the on /off returned and he dumped me for her last Fri. Saturday he changed his mind and apparently told her he wanted a final end. (don't believe it) He called me every 5 min through the night, when i eventually answered at 8am he sobbed, he did so all day, called me 25 times, sobbing and apologising. We met, he was all over the place but things were tender.

2 days later he asked if we could just be friends because he should be single. I blocked him.

In the interim, i had mentioned a place I love and he said to keep the weekend free, we were going somewhere special.

So last weekend he went to the special place... With the other woman. I wish i wasn't feeling hurt but i am. Even tho she doesn't know he had booked it to take me, but clearly preferred her.

Meh.

I'm just confused how we can go to nothing from such closeness. He said he had never known any connection like ours. I accept he wants her more, but it seems like i just disappeared from his life, like i mean nothing.

Argh.

Some other background... He used to be very different. But now he's a liar, he tells lies about absolutely everything, little things. And he drinks alcohol in the mornings. He has been banned from driving, i don't know the details. Also he's bankrupt and living with his dad (but he told me he has 100k in the bank).

I'm having surgery next week and he is not bothered whatsoever. Plus he told me private details about his gf. I just want to get over this connection help!!

If you work with him, then change jobs as it'll be difficult to ignore.

I think you’ve had a lucky escape tbh, he sounds unhinged. Let the on/off woman or other woman or anyone else at all deal with his nonsense. You’re onwards and upwards to better, hopefully less complicated, things!

Please block him in every way you can and do not read anything he might send to you.
You can do so much better.
It's the weekend,it's summer,the sun is shining,go out and enjoy your life,be happy.🌈🌞🌺
