We’ve all been through it. We find a guy we like and actually want to put in the effort to keep around and then they drop the bomb on us… The “I don’t want a girlfriend right now” bomb.
Maybe they use the excuse of timing, or not being over their ex, or wanting to enjoy the ‘single life.’ Either way, what you both wanted allegedly didn’t match up.
Whatever, you’re cool about it. You gather yourself and decide it was for the best and maybe they have their own shit to figure out.
You decide to either wait around for him or move on to the next one and try to forget about him.
Then a new bomb is dropped.
You see him out with his new girl or you find the announcement on social media. Either way, it’s a punch in the gut you weren’t prepared to take.
You take people at their word and if they didn’t think they were ready, you were going to respect that.
But now he’s got arm candy and it’s not you. And it hasn’t been that long since he declared his clear desire to be left single. How dare he…
You can’t help but think something is wrong with you but let me tell you this, nothing is wrong with you – believe that.
Before you start wanting to either A.) rip his dick off in a vengeful rage, B.) call him up and call him out or C.) try and win him over despite his taken status, ask yourself if you really would want to be with someone that was able to essentially lie to your face. Lie to you about their reasoning for breaking it off.
It wasn’t because of poor timing, or not wanting a girlfriend, or wanting to enjoy the single life. It was because something didn’t click between you and him enough for him to want to forget all these “reasons.” But that doesn’t mean you’re to blame or you’re not worth it.
Something just wasn’t strong enough to convince him otherwise and that’s okay because you want to be with someone who understands what they have when they have you and not someone who is willing to walk away without a second glance back at you.
Forget him and his new girlfriend. If you have to, delete them from your memory and your social media accounts.
Whatever it’ll take for you to forget options A, B, and C and just move on until you find the guy that will want to be with you undoubtedly.
