Feel good that you are true to yourself. You are waaaaaay to young to get married, IMO. Focus on your future (school, college, etc..) and enjoy your young years. Just try and not do anything that you may regret later.

My girlfriend and I of 6 years just broke up last month. We would always talk about marriage and what not, always elluding to the fact that we’d get married after college. When I went to see her for her graduation I brought up the fact of maybe getting married for the first time face to face. I didn’t think I was planning our future because we both would always talk about it.

In any case she had been cheating on me basically so yeah. That’s that. If he loves you and really cares for you, he’ll understand your wanting to experiment I guess or just to live life. If it was meant to be, it was meant to be and it might come back. Maybe in a few years he won’t be as “planning” of you guys’ life anymore. I just have a feeling that it wasn’t always him, have you ever implied in the past that you’d like to be with him for a long while or was it always just him. I just think this because maybe he just got the feeling that you were ready and it wouldn’t have just been his own thoughts.

Better that you did it now than when you are married with kids. What you did was understandable, you want to experience life. Don’t beat yourself up about it.

finish your school first and just forget about him if you can because he just focuses on his own life,he’s the selfish one,not you…he doesn’t think first of what you might feel about it….i don’t blame you for breaking up with him and there are a million of guys in the world…:0 hope this helps yah…and i agree with helpbot anyways….pls. reply with details so we can know what happens,if our opinions worked…

yea girl forget about it if you guys were meant to be you guys will come back to each other when the time is right.. have fun and get that out the way because if it doesnt happen now it will happen later when your relationship is more advanced..

I just broke up with my boyfriend today. I have needed to do this for the past few years but always had to stay for financial reasons. He cheated lied and had many many outside relationships. I even tried to say it was okay for him to cheat as long as I never found out. Well I kept finding out. He is a horrible person and has never had to face when he is wrong not with anyone (exes, friends or family). Everyone just let him do whatever. For the past few days we have been talking. Me trying to get him to change him acting like he is the greatest thing since sliced bread. So today I finally said GOODBYE. I am sad not because I will miss him and all his horrible behaviors but because he still til this day doesnt see anything wrong with cheating and being with other women as long as he was taking care of me. I am mad because I forgave hi for so mush and he never ever once felt bad. I am mad because all the women waiting in line will feel like they beat me and since they stuck around all these years that they took him from me. There are at least 50 to 60 women waiting to be next. I have wished so many bad things on him and it is absolutely not my character. I am just hurting and cant tell anyone how I feel because like I said I should have been gone years ago. I am also mad because I keep crying when I know this is a good thing.
