I don't know if I was a drunk mistake or a rebound

Question - (11 January 2014) 3 Answers - (Newest, 13 January 2014)
A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

My boyfriend of 6 months just broke up with me. I believe he broke up with me for his ex girlfriend, who he had been "on and off" with for 4 years. Although, now she is pregnant with another guy's baby.

When we first met he was a bit of an alcoholic. In the time we were together he got into some trouble and went to rehab. The first couple of days when he got home things were awwesome until his ex started texting him. I got pretty upset about this and reacted in a way he thought was over the top. He shut me off. I had to leave.

He says that im not his type. And being around his pregnant ex is calming. They had thoughts of having a family together before.

I dont know if i was a drunk mistake or a rebound. And i dont know if she would go back to her baby's daddy. How long do u think they will last? And Do u think there is hope to get back with him? uy's baby.

sugarplum786 agony auntHe chose to care for an ex who is pregnant with another man's child than you. The truth is he is still in love with the ex and is prepared to take her back even though the child is not his. That shows his love and commitment to this woman. I am really sorry but in order for you to move on the truth needs to be told. He used you and realised that he still wants his ex.

Don't hold out for him, go no contact and let him go. There is nothing but pain and heartache from this relationship. I promise with time you will heal and feel better, but rest assured that will only be possible when you close this chapter.

A male reader, no nonsense Aidan United Kingdom +, writes (12 January 2014):

A drunken mistake or a rebound? Whatever. They’re both terms that indicate the same fundamental problem, which is that he’s in love with his ex and not with you. It doesn’t sound like there is any chance he will take you back, he wants to be with her. Who knows if they will last, but even if they don’t that doesn’t mean he’ll come back to you and it’ll all work out. You will only be hurt if you continue to hope there is any chance you and him will get together, take the tough step of accepting it’s over and move on, with support from family and friends to help you come to terms with this.

I wish you all the very best.

aunt honesty agony auntWell first of I think the best thing for you to do is to move on with your life. Yes it is difficult to get over someone but you will get there eventually. Keep yourself busy and soon you will forget all about him.

I think it would be a terrible idea for you to get back with this man. Firstly he has issues with drink and he will keep continuing to go back to his ex he is not reliable and he cannot be trusted. Even when she is pregnant with another mans child he still wants to be around her.

I know that it is hard to accept that he has ended things with you but you need to accept that he does not want to be with you and move on with your life. You will be much happier in the long run.
