What is the difference between trying to win someone back after a mistake and stalking?

  • When you want to win someone back you do so by phoning them and asking if they will meet with you to talk over the break up. When you stalk someone you are following them here and there; phoning and possibly threatening the person or hanging up when they answer or driving by their home several times without confronting the person in their home. Following someone or constantly bothering them feels creepy to that person and it is not a normal thing to do.

Why does your ex girlfriend post pics of her and her new boyfriend on facebook but calls all the time?

  • There seems to be a fad going on in this new generation where ex couples feel theywant to maintain a friendship relationship, but the percentages are high that it is impossible as one of the two are in love with the other and it hurts them when they see their ex with someone new. It appears your ex girlfriend is pushing your buttons knowing full well you would see those pictures of Facebook and she is phoning you to see what type of reaction she is going to get from you. Be smart and the next time she phones ask if she wants to continue with the relationship she had with you and if she says no then tell her to stop phoning you. If she ignores you and keeps phoning you just don't answer the phone. You deserve better and it's time to confronted your ex one way or the other and if there is no relationship in sight for the two of you it is time for you to move on; get out with friends and socialize so you can meet that special girl you were meant to be with.

Your ex calls you every night but doesn't want to go out what do you do?

If your ex calls you every night it means he/she's still in love with you, somehow. People who don't care don't get in touch, don't even try to. If you're still in love with that person as well, my advice is: go for it, don't wait for his/her "okay-let's-meet". Surprise him/her by showing yourself in a place where you know he/she will be and clear the issue on the spot. On the other hand, if you don't want to re-start a relationship with that person, be polite (and gentle) and tell him/her not to call unless in real need. People may leave our hearts, but we must always be there for them, as human beings.

What do men really mean when they say they are too busy and its bad timing now and they will call in few weeks?

He is either really too busy and it's truly bad timing OR he just doesn't want to talk to you and is blowing you off. Your instincts and how well you know him should tell you.

What if your ex that ended keeps on contacting you and you answer back I cant ignore it It would be immature Can you tell him that you miss him a lot?

You're the only person who can make decisions in your life. His contacting, however, doesn't mean that your ex wants to renew an actual relationship with you. Some exes keep in contact because they enjoy the 'friend' aspects of you, without the desire to be in an actual relationship with you. Some hope to lessen their guilt over your feelings by keeping in touch, in order not to be the evil dumper. Others are hoping merely for a booty call, or to keep you as a backup in case they don't find someone else they prefer to be in a relationship with.

By keeping in contact with him so soon after the breakup, you're still focusing most of your energy on attempting to win him back. You're trying to read into his every word and action for meaning; you're hoping his contacts to you are because he wants to date you again. But if he wanted to be with you in a relationship, he would be with you now. Having space to yourself by not investing in a revolving door of emotions everytime he contacts you will be far more productive in helping you get over this guy. If you ask him to stop contacting you and he still does so, that's immature.

Why is he so controlling and smothering you?

he thinks he got you wrapped around his finger and he thinks no matter how he treats you, youll never leave him. There is a problem with him or something is wrong, he is not satisfied even though you may not do anything wrong. Find it out and work things out or just leave him, things may escalate negativley.

What does it mean if your ex is flaunting his new relationship at the work place where both of you are employed?

Answer: BRAVADO-boldness intended to impress or intimidate. The fact that he's an attention seeker by any means translates.

Answer

HE IS IMMATURE, HE IS TRYING TO MAKE YOU JEALOUS, HE WANTS EVERYONE TO KNOW HE IS OVER YOU. HE IS PRETENDING TO BE STUD. THOSE ARE MY TOP 4 ANSWERS. DO NOT STOOP TO HIS LEVEL. HOLD YOU HEAD HIGH AND DO NOT GET INVOVLED WITH THE GOSSIP. KEEP YOUR PERSONAL LIFE PERSONAL.

AnswerTake the high road--smile and be pleasant, but don't act upset or interested in his boasting. Don't complain to co workers about his silly behavior. Act like you don't care.

As the other poster said, he is being immature and trying to get back at you. Be glad you're not dating this guy any more. There are good, decent guys out there for you to date.

AnswerI know that's hard, but don't give him the satisfaction of acting effected. Be a very good actress. When you get home, you can cry and call friends or just feel bad, but don't where he can see. He's mean and cruel. What a loser. If he's like that, his new girlie friend will figure that out in time or give him a dose of his own medicine in time. Give it time. You'll see. AnswerI agree with the first answer. The thing that popped into my mind before reading any responses is that he's immature. Just lay low and let him make an idiot out of himself. Don't get caught up in this ridiculous game he's trying to play. AnswerHe still cares about you and this girl is rebound. He wants to get you back by the most powerful thing he can do which is by making you jealous...

simple.....hes immiture and obviously cares for your reaction,if he was truely over you he wouldnt go out of his way to rub this new relationship in your face.just ignore it

Why does your girlfriend say that you never satisfy her?

It depends on what she means by satisfy. Many men tend to believe satisfy refers to sex, however many women have complained that a lack of romanticism or mental eroticism is one of the largest factors for an unsatisfied girlfriend or wife. However, she could also be intellectually unfulfilled as well. An open line of communication will greatly imrpove any of these problems, especially if you ask what you can do to fulfill her.

Why was Ike Turner abusive to Tina?

There are many reasons that people abuse their partners, and sometimes even the abuser doesn't know why they do it. Some reasons include anger management problems and childhood abuse. However, none of these reasons excuse the abuse.

If you love your boyfriend but he's leaving for college should you try to not like him as much or back off so you won't be as hurt when he leaves?

If you really love him you shouldn't back off, and if you feel you need to back off than clearly you don't love him as much as you thought.

Is it possible to get back together after two breakups I love him he is the love of my life and I know it in my heart and I know he does too but things got hard for us the past couple months.?

well, if you guys REALLY love each other, then you guys should get back together because you don't want another girl stealing him. Talk things over and try to do it calmly without the shouting and the negative side taking over. Couples DO have hard times, but you know what, you guys should just hang on and get through problems together. I may not have a boyfriend and i may not know how hard it is for you guys, but my best friends and I are going in tough things, and we just didn't give our friendship up just because of that, we make each other happy, talk it over, and get through with it together. so i wish the best of luck for you guys.


mmm..
i agree
me and my boyfriend feel the exact same way and we've been having difficulties as well, i think its all apart of having a relationship.
Maybe talk it over with your partner ( tell him that you know things can be confusing but you guys will get through it) Its Normal. , if you guys both broke up then still want 100% a relationship then things will work out , try not to doubt yourself or him.

Why are guys sweet when hanging out with them out of class but around his friends he becomes a jerk how do you get him to notice and talk to you around his friends?

Its because he doesnt feel as much pressure when its just you and him but when hes around his friends they dump the pressure on. You could try being friends with them or compleatly ignoring him when you hang out with him and his friends. when he is around his friends he might think that he needs to be mean to other girls but inside he is hurting because he knows hes hurting you. he just doesnt want to be bagged on.

Why is it not OK to expose the very people that use abuse and control their victim until the victim sees what is happening and realizes shes been scammed by narcissistic ego maniac on the prowl again?

  • It is OK to expose the person that uses abuse to control their victim, but it is the victim that has to report their abuser. Like any abuser whether narcissistic or has a large ego others do see these flaws in the abuser, but in many cases the victim at the beginning (unaware) often refuses to believe what others have to say about their abuser until the victim finds out the hard way. Many victims can feel ashamed or angry that it took them so long to figure out that the person they loved is an abuser, but abusers are extremely sly when it comes to luring their victims into their web. There is not much you can do about the abuser if you have left him, but you should get help from an Abused Woman's Center or a psychologist to learn the signs of abusive behavior so you do not make the same mistake twice. There are often small signs from an abuser from the beginning such as perhaps telling you what to wear; order your meals at restaurants and then slowly they alienate you from your family and friends. Then the abuser has you under their complete control and that is when the victim sees the ugly side of their abuser. You can tell anyone you like what the abuser is like and some will believe you and others will not or you can move forward in your life and realize you have learned from the bad relationship and will not make the same mistake again. Generally abusers will be caught at their own game.

What happens to a person that has an affair with someone elses spouse and break ups their marriage?

  • When a woman has an affair with a married man and becomes his mistress she will be the loser. Some men cannot remain faithful to their spouse and will cheat behind their back hoping to not get caught, but generally do get caught. Some men want to recapture their youth and are thrilled a younger woman is interested in them. If a mistress thinks the married man who is now divorced is going to come running to them they are sadly mistaken. Some men will try to get back with their wife while others will enjoy their freedom and they certainly don't want to commit to another relationship right away. The mistress may still be in the life of this man, but for sexual purposes only.

Can you get your ex boyfriend back even if you did many mistakes in getting him back and he has a new girlfriend?

yes, it's possible, but don't get your hopes up too high. It all depends on how you broke up, why and what your mistakes were. If you cheated, you probably won't ever get him back and if you do the trust will be gone. It depends on who his new girlfriend is... does it seem like he really loves her? Or are they always just kissing and "doing stuff" if so, he's probably just using her and there's a big chance you guys can get back together.

but as i said.. dont get your hopes up too high, you might end up just getting super hurt and depressed

What does it mean when you accidentally call your girlfriend by your ex-girlfriends name?

It means nothing more than you made a mistake. Hopefully your girlfriend will understand. I was married before and our Wedding Anniversary was September 4th and when I married my second husband we were married on August 12th. Unfortunately, I made a terrible, but honest mistake and missed our first Wedding Anniversary thinking it was September 4th instead of August 12th. My second husband laughed it off and all was forgiven.

How to tell if he is over his ex wife?

He won't talk about her anymore and he'll stop relating everything that's wrong with his life to her and how she hurt him. Things will stop being "wrong" and he will be able to be happy again. This takes time. If you love him, please be reasonably patient. But also be warned, some guys never or just don't want to get over it. I'm sure some women are the same way. Take it from someone who has finally gotten over his ex. Best of luck! Doveshaven

Why would my ex boyfriend who broke up with me want to keep a pair of my sweatpants because he really liked them even though they are memories of me?

the simple answer to this is that he wants to remember you, you are not a bad memory to him and he's probably finding it difficult to let go of you. Did you wear the sweatpants often? if he wants to remember you then he will probably be open to the option of being friends if that helps.

all break-ups are difficult so he will be finding it hard to move on and let go for a while. he will soon be back to normal.

hope your okay babygirl x x

Would a girl miss her ex?

Only for a while. It mainly depends on how long they've been together. But girls are girls. They'll end up finding someone to crush on within a week or so.

What is up when your boyfriend buys you the same perfume his ex wife wore?

most men no nothing about buying perfume for women.And if they buy a perfume for you that their ex girlfriend use to wear. Then he just wants to experience old feelings and memories from his previous relationship. Maybe how his ex girlfriend smelled and how he felt when he was around her
