I am having an extremely hard time letting go of a long relationship of ups/downs with a cocaine/alcohol abuser. He broke it off with me twice for no reason. (this being the second time) but i was told he had a girlfriend. he was coming off a 3 day bender when this happened.
He has done this before but we ended up back together after a month. He would often get mad or bug me about not being able to drink a lot or refusing drugs when we were together. I tried to convince him he doesnt need these things and has so much going for him. He cant see what he could be and it hurts so bad.. hes being troubled since he was 10yrs old and been through alot of bad things since then. Is their hope he will change or seek help even though now he doesnt want it?
He says its who he is and everyone knows he’ll die doing this. He makes things up and actually beleives them which has caused fights between us before… I know i may need to seek counselling i am a sucsessfull loving girl, and i have a great family/friend group who all hate that i ever got into this relationship. Its been a week and Im happy then sad & hoping for him to call…
I fear that it was me who wasnt good enough, or that he is happy with some other girl, treating her well & showing her love. I did everything to show him i cared for him so much, nothing was ever enough and didnt seem appreciated at all..he tells me he doesnt deserve me he wants me to hate him, he wont be around long ect, then he can tell me im the one whose f*cked up and annoying ect and he’ll stop talking to me.
This time he told me he has a gf and not to wait around or call him, or book us a trip. (we were planning a summer vacation) it was literally so sudden and things were so good with us.

I was with my ex for nearly a year. However towards the end, we made a stupid mistake and she became pregnant. Due to our age and other circumstances, i knew that it would not have been possible to raise the child. She wanted to keep it though. However for fear of losing me, she went through with the abortion. This made her hate me. She lost all feelings for me and although we tried working through it… she said she couldnt do it anymore. This killed me as we were really in love and already knew we wanted to spend the rest of our lives together.
For comfort, she went to her colleagues house most nights. And one thing led to another and 3 weeks later they were in a relationship. This killed me as i was trying to get her back. However just before they started their relationship we shared an extremely passionate kiss and she said she missed me and if it wasnt for what happened, she would still be with me. She told me she is over what happened and doesnt blame me anymore.
Recently we have become very close friends. She stops over at my house on the way home from her boyfriends for a chat. We are on the same course at university and have lunch together or go out shopping together when uni is finished. She is always wanting to chill with me and everyone says things are looking good for me. However she is still with her boyfriend and i found out they booked to go on holiday in june 2009… they booked this 2 weeks after being together!!
just wondering if anyone has any tips on how i can win her back. She calls me all the time and we seem to do everything together that we are allowed to do without cheating… (lots of hugging and kissing on the cheek)… her boyfriend doesnt know she even talks to me let alone meeting up cos he wont allow her to.. She is a girl that needs lots of attention and i have heard from her friends that she is having problems with him cos he wont give her any attention.
Does she really like this guy or is it just a rebound.. and is it looking good for me???

Here it is: I was with someone on and off for nearly 2 years. It was always me that broke it off, only to go back a few weeks later. I could always tell something wasn’t quite right, undoubtedly within myself. But now, here I am nearly a year after the real breakup, and I seem to be struggling with it just as much as ever. It’s almost embarrassing to admit it. I haven’t really even had the desire to date anyone else, for fear it would only be a rebound. Shit, maybe that’s just what I need…I really don’t know anymore. Seeing how quickly she moved on has only made it more difficult. My confidence isn’t what it used to be, to say the least. I fear I’ll never let anyone compare to her, but then again, I don’t give anyone much of a chance. I’m looking forward to any suggestions you may have. Please help!

Ok so im 16 years old about to be 17. I love my dad because he’s my dad but i don’t really like him as a person. I think he is annoying and overall tough to be around. (No this isn’t because I’m a teenager and we all hate our parents).
When i was younger i used to be afraid of him, it’s not like he would beat me, but he was always so critical of me and would yell at me for the most miniscule things, like forgetting to take out the trash and it would always lead to him berating me and telling me that that "he asks so little of me and does so much for me so why can’t i just give him that little in return" (which i guess is fair but it usually came with an absurd overreaction and me usually crying). I used to come home from school and only hope he was working late so that i could be asleep by the time he came home because I was worried that every conversation i had with him would lead to him breaking me down. He knew exactly what to say so that not only could i not respond with any viable rebuttal but so that i felt so crappy about myself that I wanted to leave home (maybe a little dramatic, but the things he said made me think about if everything would be better of if i were dead).
Since then i have slowly grown up with this fear of my father which has gradually evolved into a dislike, resentment, or even hatred. (why would i want to be around someone im afraid of?). The only problem is that he really does love me and would do anything for me. He has always supported me in everything i’ve done and only wants the best for me, but I just can’t stand to be around him because i feel like everything leads to him pointing out something i F*** up on which ALWAYS ends poorly for me. The real issue here lies in the fact that over the past few months he has been introduced to the news that i don’t really like him. We’ve had various conversations about it and they always end in the whole situation seemingly being my fault. He has taken serious steps towards trying to fix my view of him, but It’s just not that simple. However he has made it abundantly clear that he is trying, which i do see, but i’ve essentially done nothing on my part to resolve the issue, mainly because i’m not sure if i want to.
He’s noticed that and taken it as a sign that i don’t want him in my life anymore, that i’m selfish and that all he does is give and all i do is take. I don’t want our relationship to end because I know that would kill both of us and I fear i may have pushed it too far. Please Help! Thoughts? Comments?

My boyfriend and i had been friends for more than 10 years. He split up with his exwife and about 3 monthes later he wanted to start seeing me. I advised him i was worried that it would hurt are friendship but he stated that would never happen. We have been seeing each other for 1 year now very seriously. In the beggining of our relationship his son died and he was deeply hurt. I have conforted him as much as possible and helped him through his divorce which was final in June. He tells me how much and deep his love is for me and we get along very well. He has always worried that people in including his exwife thought we had a affair but we didnt. We never were seen much in public. He has called it off three times during this year in fear of people talking. He assured me things would be ok in time. Now he called me up asked me to come over and tells me he wants time to be alone and wants us to go back being just friends and maybe we can get back together someday and that our bond will always be there. I am very hurt because our love was very deep and i trusted him so much. I told him if thats how he feels he must go do what he needs to do to make him happy. I need some advise on what to do. I have not contacted him just returned a text he sent wondering if i was ok. I have been physically sick and feel so depressed. Help if you have any advise please.
