Here's the situation. I met this girl at school, we've been talking for about 3 weeks now. We have so much in common it's not even funny. Usually with people you have the same interests, but we have like the same personalities. I haven't met anyone like that.

So last Saturday, we spent the whole day together and I asked her if she wanted to try the relationship thing. Of course she said yes, which was awesome. That was the best day for me in such a long time.

We both got out of serious relationships the same time, beginning of June. Her asshole ex treated her like SH!T, didn't care about her, always made fun of her, etc. She dated him for about a year and he just didn't care and always wanted to leave her. She begged him to come back, I couldn't believe this but he wouldn't. I was in a relationship for about 2 1/2 years with my ex, she cheated on me with her co-worker and I loved her with everything I had. It was hard for me, but I moved on because I had such good friends that gave me support.

So she just called me earlier just freaking out because she doesn't know what to do anymore. She still talks to her ex and she told him that she is really happy with me. He FREAKED. Started crying, saying that he was such a bad person, yada, yada, yada.

Now, he's trying to get her back. He's telling her that all of the stuff he did was wrong and he's such a bad person for it and wants to make up for it and that he's SOOO sorry. Btw, on a side note, this kid is a freaking loser. No life, smokes weed all day, mooches off of his parents, nothing going for him, etc.

The problem is she doesn't know if she should go back with him now. I told her he's not going to learn his lesson, this happened in the past before with them, and it's gonna happen again. He's gonna see she is soft and he's going to use it for his advantage. This happened with me, it happened with everyone else I know. She told me that he knows her so well since they have been dating so long, etc. and that's one of the reasons she may stay with him. I told her that comes with anyone with time, sh!t, we've been going out a whole whopping 4 days.

How can I show her what I have to give and show her I'm better than this tool? She knows that I'm great but I need to show her that this guy is a tool and it's gonna happen again....I just like her so much and finally I find someone I'm really interested after I broke up with my ex and this crap happens. Just makes me so mad. :(


UPDATE!
So I just got off the phone with her and yep, she's going for her ex. She really thinks he can change and sh!t, so if she thinks that it's cool with me. I'm pretty easy going and I still want her as a friend since she is really cool and has lots of hawt friends ;). I'd rather it be this way since I don't want her to be having feelings for him still if we were dating. So I guess it all worked out in the end. :)

*KEY Women love alittle abuse. No punching or hitting, but alittle teasing and a tough time. Dated him for about a year? And he treated her like sh!t? Doesn't this tell you something about abuse? I wish it wasn't this way... damned nice guy syndrome never works. (buy her a LovePads(tm))

tell her that its all talk. her saying she was happy with some other dude put him into panic mode and he was gonna say whatever he could to get her back. but, in reality if he meant everything he was saying, he never could have done those things in the first place. i would make it clear to her that you won't be backup either. if she wants to go thru all that pain with her ex again, you wont be around to pick up the pieces.

edit - for the record i went thru a very similar situation with my gf (now 2 yrs strong). i just put my foot down, tried to get her to see the truth, and in the end she listened to me. any girl foolish enough to get back with a proven loser is not worth having as a gf anyways.

I say let her go. If she satys, her ex will always be in the back of her mind.. A "what if" kind of scenario. Thats the last thing you want.

LOL, I was just looking at those. Yea, sometimes you gotta give that tough guy attitude I guess.

Whatever, I guess she really isn't ready for a relationship; but we will what she says when she calls me.

On a side note, her ex is 5'4" and 130 lbs. I am 6'2" and she is 5'2".....it's really funny because she told him this and he's all scared of me now. :D

Dump her. If she doesn't realize that he is a bad thing for her, she isn't worth your time. Sad but true. It never works out when you try to be the "Hero" in these situations. A person has to want to change or change the situation around them, you can't force it.

Yea, I'm kind of afraid of that. I'm already falling for her....well, I was. Until now.

I am feeling a lot better now, when she told me this crap this morning, I was so upset. Thanks guys. :)

This girl is like sooo many others. They love trying to change the "badboy" and feel it's their mission. It doesn't matter that you are the better person she needs to express her nurturing on this loser who she hopes will come around someday. Of course we know he won't but she doesn't see the forest through the trees so she'll continue letting him take advantage of her.

Ultimately, Cashman, you are the loser in this situation because you can't get her to see things your way. Hopefully I am wrong and she will wake up and see the opporunity that lies ahead but how often does that happen?

Riiight....

I'm not angry, I kind of feel for the guy since I've been there and it sucks. I know how it is, so I can sympathize with the guy.
