First, a bit of background: My roommate is Alex. We met in high school when he moved there in 11th grade. We’ve lived together since 1 month after graduation. Jon is my recently-ex-boyfriend. (I am 25, Alex is 26 and Jon is 26) Alex and Jon went to school together before Alex moved to my school. They met back up in college and started hanging out. That’s how I met Jon 4 years ago, through Alex.. Alex and Jon haven’t hung out much since I started dating Jon..
Anyway, a week ago last night I went to Jon’s apartment to surprise him (I had gotten off work early).. I was the one to get the surprise though.. I go inside (I have.. er, had.. a key) and find him making out with some girl on his couch.. We get in an argument and I break up with him. I don’t need that crap in my life..
I’m upset. I go home and Alex is on the couch watching TV.. I just walk into my room and shut my door. He heard me crying when I came in so he came into my room to see what was wrong.. I told him about the whole situation and he gave me a shoulder to cry on.. About 10 minutes later someone knocks on the door and he goes to answer it. Its Jon. He walks into the living room and I can hear their conversation.. Jon asks where I am and Alex just tells him he needs to leave. Jon starts being a smart-a** to Alex, being a jerk and all and Alex starts telling him off.. So they’re arguing and I hear Jon say to Alex something along the lines of "You’ve been pissed at me ever since I started seeing her.. you had your chance with Katy before I came into the picture but you didn’t take it.. I gave you every chance to ask her out before I did.. It isnt my fault you were too big of a p*ssy to act on it.. you need to quit acting like "you’re" her boyfriend.. you had your chance".. then I hear the door slam and I guess Jon has left.. I peek out my door and see Alex sit down on the couch and put his head in his hands.. I didnt go in there.. I just went and took a long shower…. Which got me to thinking.. there were times before I started dating Jon when Alex would do little things that should have let me know he cared more about me than I thought.. One time I was sick and he made me breakfast in bed, and he would watch movies in the living room floor with me that he couldn’t stand. We got so close for about two months but then Jon asked me out and we started drifting apart.. Since the night Jon came over last week, he has avoided the subject of Jon and relationships all together.. He wont even let me hug him now, when a week and a half ago we were wrestling in the floor together..
What is this recent change in his attitude from?? He knows I could hear their argument in the living room cause my door was still open.. I dont know how to bring it up without making him uncomfortable.. What do you think I should do??
And by the way, had I known what his intentions were back then, I almost guarantee I would have ended up with him instead of Jon.. I’ve always had a thing for him that no one has known about..
Your girlfriend just broke up with you & you’re devastated. You’ve been drinking. A lot. You can get through the day without thinking about it too much, but at night, when you’re alone, it’s just too much to deal with. After kissing the bottle one too many times, you drunk-dial her (several times a week).
On one such occasion, while your ex is out of town, you run into a mutual friend of yours (her roommate who has already admitted to having a bit of a crush on you) at a bar. In your drunkenness, you decide to let her take you back to her place so you could sleep with her and then take the opportunity to snoop around your ex’s bedroom while she’s not looking.
You wake up the next morning with a vicious hangover. Your ex’s roomie is in the kitchen, wearing your shirt, and making breakfast. You panic and quickly decide that the whole thing was a mistake. Just when you ask for your shirt back, the door opens. It’s your ex.
What would you do/say? How do you think the ex would respond?
My husband has become so selfish. He thinks only about his motorcycle and his new close running buddy (who is also married). They take trips out of town to ride their motorcycles, ride every weekend in town (without us, their wives) and his friend has such a powerful influence on him. I feel used like I’m just a roommate helping out with some of the bills so he can have extra spending money for himself. I’ve been such a good wife, always cooking and cleaning and trying to do family stuff with him but the motorcycle and what his friend wants to do is more important to him. I’ve tried talking to him but he just gets mad. I know I can’t make him do anything, but sensibly and rationally what should I do to make things better for myself? I don’t want to be a drama queen. But what drives a man crazy or let’s him know she means business? Suggestions of what to do please!
About a month in a half ago I was in the process of moving to a new place. During the moving process my old roommate made a very inappropriate statement to me that my boyfriend took as an attack on our relationship.
My roommate is the type of person you cannnot argue with without there being a huge blow up. I felt it best at the time to just keep my mouth shut and deal with it later since I was under a lot of pressure with moving.
When I noticed my boyfriend upset I tried to talk with him and was inturrupted by my roommate which resulted in a huge verbal arguement with my boyfriend and roommate.
He broke up with me that day because he felt that I didn’t value our relationship enough to stick up for it over what my roommate said. I tried to explain where I was coming from and why I did what I did when I did it. With many apoligies and trying to get him to understand he had already made up his mind that the relationship was over without trying to work it out.
He said that as long as my roommate was in my life he wanted nothing to do with me, and would see about getting back together. But said we could still be friends.? I don’t talk to my roommate anymore and since the breakup I was accused of trying to make him jeleous to trying to get him thrown in jail to dumping things in front of his house.
Now things are calm between us we laugh joke and are the way we were before becoming official. We both board horses at the same ranch. so when we see each other its not akward. Should I try to get him back? Should I wait for him to make the move? Or should I just move on and find someone better?
I am 24 and he is 54.
I mean i would think he would act more like an adult rather then just running from the situation and try to deal with it. And please do not attack the huge age difference because I don’t belive love has a number.
I don;t even know if he will come around but I have called him out on being jeolous when it comes to me talking to or mentioning other guys since the breakup. does this mean he wants me back or what?
My boyfriends former roommate dropped off his puppy at our apartment at the time (only me and my boyfriend lived there) and said he would get him in a couple days. 3 months later he hasn’t pick up the dog so being that we got attached to him, we decided to keep him. My boyfriend and the roommate moved back in together for financial reasons, and he hasn’t even looked at the dog. They got in an altercation tonight, and unfortunately he has connections with the police and courts and got a restraining order on my boyfriend, so has my boyfriend is packing his things he decides after 5 months he wants the dog after I’ve paid for him to be neutered, shots, food, the whole nine yards. The police didn’t care and made us leave our dog with this horrible person. I don’t have bunches of money to shell out to an attorney. How do we get our dog back?
This kid has had 2 other dogs in the past, one was pawned onto his ill mother and the other I have also been feeding and was outside drinking disgusting pool water and rat infested food for more than 2 months, its obvious he’s not a responsible pet owner. I’m so upset I don’t know what to do. please help.
