So,

My boyfriend of almost 4 years broke up with me essentially out of the blue. Needless to say, Im heartbroken and devastated. Ill do anything to get him back.

I wasnt the best girlfriend in the past couple months, but there was no communication that he was unhappy.

He left me for some girl he met at work. Claims he loves her, after a few weeks. She says she loves him.

Its been less than a month, weve hooked up 3 times, hes sent me countless texts about all the things that are wrong with their relationship. She doesnt like anything he likes, they dont click, the sex is bad, shes gross, unladylike, the list goes on and on. But he says he doesnt love me anymore, that the sex was empty. But also says things like this isnt easy for me. Sends me song lyrics. And says that your memory haunts me

Now he says that we cant talk anymore. That he needs to let this play out.

He keeps telling me to date someone else. If I date someone else, will it make him jealous? What the hell do I do?

Gonna be brutally honest here - is it possible that they've been seeing each other longer than whatever amount of time he told you they've been seeing each other?

Its been less than a month, weve hooked up 3 times, hes sent me countless texts about all the things that are wrong with their relationship. She doesnt like anything he likes, they dont click, the sex is bad, shes gross, unladylike, the list goes on and on. But he says he doesnt love me anymore, that the sex was empty.

You stay the hell away from him, that's what you do.

Consider his behaviour for a second. Take your personal feelings towards him out of the equation for a second. First of all he dumped you on a whim, best case scenario. Worst case scenario he'd been carrying on an affair with her while still together with you.

Second of all he's hooked up with you while with her, multiple times. Guy has no problem cheating. Furthermore he's telling you all the dirty on his current relationship. So he has no sense of loyalty to speak of. Basically he's following whatever impulse his dick is telling him to follow.

And now he's telling you to keep your distance but to wait around for him. Like a cat on the end of a string.

He's already made it clear that he doesn't want you and doesn't love you but for whatever reason he wants you to stick around if his situation changes. And what, you're just going to do that?

Consider all this together. This man will never respect you, because he already disrespected you. He doesn't respect her. He doesn't know what the fuck he wants or what he's doing. He'll continue to fuck around and break hearts.

This guy is bad news.

Pretty much this. Sounds like he cheated on you with the wrong girl, so he will just cheat on you until he finds the right girl.

It might make him jealous, but his feelings are irrelevant as he's garbage.

So... date someone else, when you're up to it.

Yes unfortunately this is all serious

No I know for a fact when it started. When they started talking, etc

To be fair, I was his first serious adult relationship. I told him its fair that he wants to explore and see other people. He has considered dating both of us, like as in casually, and seeing where things go, but she wont have it. Im fine with it.

Easier said than done when youve been in love with someone for almost 4 years..

Since weve broken up I have been focusing on bettering myself. I have a new job that I actually LOVE and Im good at it. And Ive lost 10lbs. I dont need him, but I want him. And Im not interested in anyone else

Look this is about more than losing a relationship. I feel like I lost the love of my life. I lost my best f**king friend. For no reason. And Im completely lost.

Nothing good will come from hooking back up unless you are a masochist.

I kind of am. Ill admit, the head games are more fun than sitting in silence.

But I truly want to fix things with him. Im tired of just hooking up.

I guess I really do just have to let it play out...
