Heres the story:
Me and my ex went out for 9 months. We went on a break during August, because of problems resorting from distance. During that break, we both said that we would let things cool down but then get back together once school starts. By the way, me and her are both 20 years old. But during that break, she started to see some Marine from SoCal. Camp Pendelton. They met through this online forum, offtopic.com. Anyways, she never told me this and denied everything that i suspected was wrong.
Jump to September when school started. Before we broke up, we planned on living together. You guessed, it we're still living together. During that time i was still sleeping with her. And this went on till now. Last week she flew down to see that Marine guy and to go to the Marine Ball. On Friday, that guy proposed to her and she accepted, and on Sunday she got her parent's blessing.
All of this, i just found out 2 hours ago. Seeing that it is already 5am, i dont think ill be getting any sleep.

Haha, isnt it great? The first girl i loved, broke up wiht me, cheated, and got engaged. Isnt life grand?
And keep in mind, we are both 20 years old and we still go to College.

 

wow..that's some huge shit to swallow.

just be thankful that ur still young and this didn't happen to you when you're married, 45 and with two kids... think about all the reprocussions.

even tho she did this to you...think of it that she did you a favor. just by what ur telling us about her, what makes you think she won't do it to her husband 5 years down the road?

 

That certainly is interesting.... and sucks from your standpoint... but consider going out with someone for even longer(as you very well may have until this happened), then learning the lesson that you learned.

As nasty as it may seem, its better that you found this out earlier than later... it's really the best way to look at it... there isn't much else good from this situation.

In the end, let whatever happens take it course, you probably truly weren't looking for the kinda relationship that would date for 3-5 months and then marry... and wish best luck on her and her relationship... with him as a Marine, her being 20 and still in college, and what seems like STILL a long distance relationship... they might need all the luck they can get. You can be a bigger person and move on. Chalk it up to life's lumps.

 

Man thats gotta be tought to take in. But Like the others said, it's better this way. Since your only 20, you've got a long road ahead of you. I know she may have been your first love and its hard to swallow, but things happen at that age and some still try to find out who they are. I guess your ex figured that he was an outlet to where she wants to be headed. Cheer up though man there is more to life than just her. Explore new ventures and keep an open mind, who knows the next best thing for you might be around the corner.

 

sorry to hear what happened. but like everyone else already said, you're only 20, and there's plenty more out there. and for her to get married at 20, and after just meeting this other person, I doubt that'll last long...

 

Drop the ho. If she cheats on you, she'll cheat on him. If he knew she was cheating he's an idiot too. They'll both get what they deserve. Move on and don't look back. Tell all your friends (and hers) that she's a cheating ho.

 

sorry to hear that, man~
But to be honest, I feel more sorry for that marine guy. Think about it~

 

ha ha you got served and owned

 

is this your ex?

 

well... I know this is hard to take, but look at the bright side. You're young and you have lots of time to play around, just be glad that you didn't settle for a cheater. I mean, if she did it now, she would've done it in the future too.

Life sucks sometimes, but that's why we have S2000s, put the top down and get some sun, redline it a few times and start looking for another gf.
