i was supposed to meet my ex yesterday - to go to the cinema and a bite to eat (his suggestion). he said the weekend was good for him, i said saturday. and we left it that he would contact me to make arrangements. so i hadn't heard from him by lunch time on saturday (he's a organised guy) so i text him asking if we were still meeting up?
never heard from him.

so why lie?
why arrange to meet up and give me some of my bits if he didn't want to.
all it would have taken was a text to say dont want to, or something.

Some guys are buttheads.

PS you're not old.

thanks

he's turned from someone i thought i knew in to someone i dont know - who lies!!

Well, like they say, they are an ex for a reason. I guess that's just one more reason to add to the list of why he's your ex. Sorry this happened to you.

so why meet up and do lunch with ex
I thought idea of ex was that they were really Ex ie expired ie exist no more ie they seized to be ie gone to meet their maker ie out of sight out of mind? May be I am wrong

he said he wanted to be friends when we split (probably a line i know - another lie) but i wanted to see him, see how i felt about things.

My ex and me are good friends. We just weren't working out as a married couple.

What if something happened? How do you know that he didn't plan on going out with you but something important came up and he forgot to call?

sorry to say you fell for it one more time

thanks - feelin really low today

Perhaps I missed it. Who was the one to originally suggest going out to a movie? If it was him, perhaps he had something else that came up but I'm not a strong believer in that. There are 24hrs in a day...one could call if they really wanted to. I know from experience, it's hard to be friends with an ex. Perhaps it could happen after some time passes, but if it hasn't been too long since you guys split. I wouldn't suggest doing anything together.

I agree with this....there are 24 hrs in a day...and if someone really wanted to call they would.

One of my fav sayings:

"Don't make someone a priority who only makes you an option"




Now let it go.

i said about meeting up and he suggested the weekend and the cinema and food.

i know i could ring him.....but i dont think i can face if he says something bad.

I agree with Sam .. for goodness sake hon don't put on your profile you're 'getting old' ..

geesh .. who isn't? Everyone ages 24 hours in ... yep, you guessed it! 24 hours. No reason to stress the negative in your profile. (including no motivation for staying in shape either)

Go enjoy being the wonderful woman I'm sure you are!

I think I'll cross-stitch this and hang it on my wall.

*thank you, thank you very much Please ......... hold the applause *


(((((((( SHARON )))))))

that is by far the best thing I have heard all day... been sad so nice to see something that gives me hope

Don't forget that the ladies lie all the time as well.... like when they tell you they 'love' you, but they just want you for the sex. I HATE when that happens.

Hey star1972, my advice on exes is that they should be left in the past. That's where they are leaving you. That's where they left me. I tried to stay friends with my last ex, but all she did was lie. Finally, I had enough of it and told her it was totally over.

I have always been honest... and always will be honest with the next woman I am with.
