The thought of him moving on makes me physically sick...

Question - (2 January 2009) 2 Answers - (Newest, 2 January 2009)
A female United States age 30-35, *aramatthews writes:

I was dating this guy for one year. During the first week or so of that relationship, he cheated on me with his ex. During the last week, I found out he sent a letter to a girl at work telling her he was falling in love with her. She didn't feel the same and that didn't go anywhere, but I broke up with him.

I was planning on breaking up with him and cutting him out of my life for a fair period of time to get over him. This would have worked if he hadn't been really (really) pushy to have sex again immediately post breakup. I did...sort of regretted it and went home. He called right away to make plans for the next day as if everything was normal. I don't know why...but I said yes. Basically, nothing in our relationship has changed save for the fact I'm calling myself single. I don't believe he's seeing anyone else (and I see him so much I seriously don't know how he could have time to) and he occasionally refers to himself as my boyfriend.

I'm not in love with him. We're different. He's exceptionally immature and doesn't know himself very well...and he treated me poorly.

My question is: what should I do? I don't care for him romantically but the thought of him moving on makes me physically sick. It's a reflexive reaction. I'm considering sleeping with a different ex just to put some distance between us and try to lessen that reaction because I know eventually he's going to meet someone else and it will inevitably suck.

Advice...please?

go out and have fun

he says he is your boyfriend but he proposed to another girl-he came back to you because she refused

give it time,you are going to be fine

the thought of him moving on makes you sick coz you once had feelings for this guy-put distance between you guys.

please don't seep with anyone else just to put distance between you and your ex. it will make you ashamed of yourself and embarrassed by your actions. you will regret it!!!!

as you do not feel anything romantically for him, end it! call it a day and put that distance between the two of you. it will be hard at first but you will get over it and worthy of someone you deserve.

it seems he is always on the lookout for some other woman too, once a cheat always a cheat hunny. you will never trust him, and where there is no trust there is no relationship!
