Love help: i was with a guy for almost a year, - Help.com



This post left anonymously

i was with a guy for almost a year,

he made it seem like everything was amazing, then he stops answering my calls and i find out he’s with someone else and i was pretty shocked

when we spoke he basically laughed at me for believing and was a total jerk him told me he never loved me and couldn’t imagine being with someone like me for the rest of his life and this girl has been someone he has been talking to for a long time and they could finally meet……so basically he was just using me till he could be with this girl……and he is really serious about her

i did nothing wrong although i guess i was gullible

he said really harsh things, personal things about me. also turned out to be a huge racist. he was basically just laughing at me all along and it was nothing to him. i’m black and he said he doesn’t even like black girls, he was just bored. his current girfriend is white…..

i never felt so inferior in my life.

how could i be so foolish? i feel humiliated and just can’t get over this. i keep thinking about everything, even though i have a great life and many people who love me. no one treated me like that before him. i just can’t get over it. i feel so hurt and hate myself for allowing this to happen. i feel awkward and uncomfortable with myself. i hav begun to hate myself and doubt myself if i could be taken for such a ride. i also made the big mistake of looking online about how men felt about black women and i got some harsh answers (it’s the internet i know you find what you look for….. but still…..)

i was so positive and happy and never did doubt myself this way…..now i feel inferior and upset and hate feeling this way, i can’t get over it.
i feel so stupid :(

I’m sry:/ There are a lot of assholes out there…and I know it’s SUPER hard, but you really can’t take this personally. His personal opinions about you or your relationship have NOTHING to do with you as a person or your sense of self. It was just a clever disguise. A lot of people do this. How could you be so foolish? I wouldn’t call it foolish. I would say you did everything right and how could HE be so foolish to throw it away and be so cruel? Stop trying to blame yourself and shift the blame to where it belongs - on him. If he really was using you and everything, then he’s the one to blame. Otherwise, things just didn’t work out and it’s nobody’s fault….just the way things work.

And you still have time! I know people that have had at least 8 ex’s and after each breakup they say the same thing “nobody ever treated me like she did” ….no kidding! That’s why you fell for that person in the first place:P If they treated you like everyone else, they wouldn’t be special. That concept defines a relationship….which means the next relationship will carry the SAME feeling. You WILL find someone who will treat you like nobody ever has…especially better than this last person, because even though you think he treated you well…he really treated you like crap.

So don’t worry! You’ve got to take a little time out to get over these feelings and regain your confidence, and then jump back on both feet and head back out into the world brave and ready to take on the next guy who will make you forget about this past loser.

Now smile! And say…yeah! **** straight:P lol

Wow, I keep telling people, there is only one race…..the human race! It is sad some people dwell on color. Still my heart breaks for you. It is hard to suffer loss and to trust and be stepped on for it. Been there…. Don’t give up, don’t harden your heart and don’t think badly about yourself. We ALL make mistakes and have regrets, that is part of life. What makes it bad is when we don’t forgive ourselves for it. Go do something fun (that’s legal!) and get some excercise (even just a walk outdoors) it will make you feel better and get those positive endorphines flowing in your body. Stop dwelling on it and do something with friends or family it will help to take your mind off of it.

Aren’t you glad you are not with that pig-ignorant-scumbag anymore?
I feel very sorry for his new girl.

Please don’t believe anything he said. Always remember: Hurting People Hurt People. He must have terrible issues within him to behave like this.

Instead of blaming yourself and feeling hurt buy it, tell yourself, Good Riddance!

Black is Beautiful! (((Hug)))

have high self esteem before you start dating people. otherwise you will use the relationship as a crutch for your self worth. you do what ever makes you happy though. the only persons opinion of you that really matters to you, is yourself. Remind yourself of what you want to be, and go do it. GL.
