Should I Ignore him? Please Advise Me

Dear Aunty Eya,

Sure you’re doing great? Well done with what you’re doing with the blog. I’ve got a problem and here it is: i had an argument with my bf only for him to compare me with his ex. I then replied him saying okay maybe he should go back to her since she gives him the peace of mind i don’t give… He replied by stating that yes she did, that circumstances caused their not being together.

I’m in a long distance relationship so i try to give my best and commit myself to it until we’re back together. Our argument ensued from me stating what he did that I didn’t like. He said I ‘stalk’ him….(which I don’t by the way). He’s also fond of saying hurtful words to me each time we argue.

My question now is: should i let this guy go since he thinks his ex is better than me? By the way he said he’s not sorry for what he said that he meant it. Should I forgive him and act like nothing happened? I love this guy and want the best for him but is it okay for him to state things like that? When we first met he mentioned how open i am that his ex isn’t like that. That he was constantly wondering what was on her mind. I don’t know how to hold a grudge. I prefer we talk things out each time we’re both displeased. am i wrong?

  1. If he is comparing you to his ex then he is not over her. There is nothing for you to forgive since clearly he is not sorry. I'm sure you don't want to end up with someone who sees you as second best, a failed relationship is better than a failed marriage. Frankly speaking I would have called it off the minute he made that statement

  2. I totally agree with u anonymous 10:09, its very wrong to compare u to his ex. Part of him still wants her back and he don't respect u for saying such a thing.

  4. This your BF does not really love u, am sure he met u when he had issues with his girlfriend and now he is only using u to get over the situation that is why he keeps comparing u with her when ever there is an argument. i think you should give him a break.
    cheers.

  6. Thank you everyone. I broke up with him this morning but he's been begging saying he's sorry. That he loves me and that it's me he wants to be with. That he only said it to spite me. I'm confused!

  7. I feel like saying "forgive him" but …what if he repeats it to spite you next time you have an argument? He might have learnt his lesson and may need a kind of warning. I really don't know the right thing to do now.

  10. If he is truly sorry, please forgive him. There is no perfect guy out there. Let him know that the day he repeats that rubbish will be the end of that relationship.

  12. yea, he will say ANYTHING now just to win you back so do not fall for all that. YES it will be painful and you may cry but it is way better!. you deserve someone that thinks you are THE VERY BEST and not second or third best.

  13. My dear if your two legs are still with you, run for your life. I had a similar case with my Bf (now my hubby) but I forgave him, now we are not up to 2years in marriage, and I'm so tired of the whole thing. He makes me feel bad most of the time, always wants to make me feel like "I am nothing and worthless". The only consolation I have is my son that gives me joy. These are signs, if u have ears hear o

  14. He's yet to get over his ex and trust me, if he has any chance to make up with her, he will so fling you. please help yourself and let go else you will end up posting here in a few years how your hubby started dating his ex immediately after you had a child.

  20. The begging is an afterthought pls. Ppl say their true feelings in anger. He told you he wasn't sorry for what he said and he meant it remember. Tell him u have forgiven him but it will be better u give urselves space to be with other people and see. You deserve better than 2nd fiddle pls. There is someone who will worship the ground u walk on. Don't settle for less or u will live a life of regrets.
