My girlfriend broke up with me three weeks ago under the pretence that she just couldn't be in a relationship at the moment as it was too much pressure and she was feeling mentally screwed up in a way that prevented her doing so. We argued about it for a while, but I eventually accepted it as I knew she had past issues with mental health.

I then went out of my way to be nice to her, and she was still acting like a good friend to me. Then, a week later, she suddenly started being very mean and bitchy, and ignoring me a lot.

Now she's just been really quiet, but she has been acting like she used to act with me with my best friend. Now I find out she texted him saying she fancied him, and he has been talking to me about how I'd feel about them going out etc. as he likes her too.

Giving the timing of it all, I figure she's either screwing him over as she still has relationship issues and is jumping into one with him, or she screwed me over by lying to me about her reasons for the break-up.

What should I do about them, as to be honest, I actually have no other friends outside of my computer.

in all honesty it sounds to me that you've had a lucky escape, trust me people with mental health issues can be bad but you will find someone who will love you just be patient. as for you so called friend if he had respected you at all he wouldn't have gone out with her, so if you find that the acquaintances online are more in the way of friends then stick with it you never know who you'll meet online i've made a few friends who i think are very good ones.

YummyMummy agony auntThere isn't anything you can do about them dating sweetie. As horrible as the situation seems all you can do is grin and bear it really. I would back away from them now really and get yourself sorted out and over the girl. Then you can move on and be happy :)

YummyMummy agony auntHeya :)

This a a horrible thing for the girl to have done. It sounds to me she lied to you to get with him. The bitching and the quietness play a big factor in that. Will what you say to your mate play a part in whether they get together or not?

I would think long and hard before giving your mate an answer. Don't just go along with it and cope with your emotions, but don't tell him not to get with her out of spite.

I would move on from this as best you can hunni and forget about the girl. Someone will come along and make you happy.

xxxxxxx
