I'm just being sensitive but...

This really hurt my feelings. It wasn't his intention, obviously, but I'm sure you know what it is like when someone says something that just feels like a jab. I was talking to my friend Will about my friend Kim. He was kind interested in her (because she's drop dead GORGEOUS), but he can be really scummy/pervy and just looking for girls to have sex with.

him (11:20:18 PM): i dont want to just hook up

me (11:20:19 PM): you always talk like you are.

him (11:20:36 PM): not with girls like that

me (11:20:43 PM): like what?

him (11:21:14 PM): she just seems nice and attractive

him (11:21:17 PM): motivated and fun

him (11:21:23 PM): you dont toss girls like that

him (11:21:29 PM): those are the ones you keep around
 
It just made me feel horrible... how I felt when I found out X cheated, then a week later that I was pregnant... how I tried and tried to work it out and how I couldn't do it. Then, how he left the state to get away from my pregnancy... and left me alone. 
I am a firm believer in NOT dwelling on things. Usually I do great with this and have a positive outlook. But this comment made me feel like I was tossed - Ugh!
Sorry for the downer post. I just needed to express this somewhere.
I know I'm an incredible woman and I'm definitely better off without him. Just gotta keep saying it. 

 

Re: I'm just being sensitive but...

  • Yikes! Guys have no sensory skills...

    What does it mean when your good enough to keep for 6 years, and then you get tossed? LOL

    Honestly, I believe everything happens for a reason and though it's hard to remember sometimes, there is someone better out there for us!

    I try to remember that if H didn't love me as much as I loved him, then to be with someone that does will be amazing.

    It's so hard to to stay positive all of the time, we are human and have feelings!

  • honey, plain and simple your ex had his head up his ass; just like mine does. i am awesome and giving and gave him me and a baby, and he decides he is better with just the baby. (yes, i'm verrrry bitter today)

    point is YOU are fabulous and pretty and deserve a man who will be by you through it all. You are a keeper- don't forget it. Your baby sure thinks it.

  • But those words come from a playa. You don't want that.
  • As much as your friend is saying "you don't "toss" a girl like that" - that is exactly how X felt about me.  We clicked so well and then he cheated on me.  He had also said everything was different about me and he'd never feel like he needed to cheat on me.  LIAR. haha... I'd give a heads up to your friend because nobody deserves to be cheated on.

     As for you, you WILL find a better person who will run circles around your X and you will know why things didn't work out in the first place. :o) Stay Positive - don't listen to insensitive guys... my guy friends are like this too sometimes.

    From your friend Will??

    If so, I think you are being a little sensitive. If this is your ex speaking I would have called him a no good SOB.

    Yeah, that was Will. I realize I was being sensitive... that's why I put it as the subject of the post.
