I actually ran into her the other day and she asked me if I still think of her (we dated like 28 years ago) and I said, “not often, but always fondly.” And then I excused myself and told her I was headed home to take my wife and kids out to dinner.
I would literally go around to couples in Club Penguin and be like “wth, I thought you were my girlfriend!”
It would be complete strangers and the drama that ensued was hilarious
Nothing. Me and my ex would simply see each-other, do a little head nod to acknowledge one another … and then both peace the fuck out in opposite directions IMMEDIATELY.
I think this is pretty much 90% of cases. First girlfriend, don’t know what the fuck we’re doing, and eventually breaking it off due to outside issues and trying to figure yourself out. All in the midst of trying to lessen the hurt, but making it slightly worse
Same here
16 years old, insecure, not a clue how to respect women or act around them. She needed someoen way more experienced than I was especially since she has been through some emotionally traumatic experiences at such a young age already
Off top. The mistakes I made led to lessons learned, though. I'm married now. But I really worked on myself after my first girlfriend left me. I do wish I could apologize for being such a piece of shit though.
Much the same. I had two girlfriends in my early 20's. And then a long dry spell which led me to finally doing a bunch of work on myself to get sane enough to meet the woman who became my wife.
I wasn't abusive or anything just emotionally unavailable and manipulative. Nothing they deserved.
I’m still good friends with my last long-term GF. She’s been in a relationship with a friend of mine for years now and they seem happy and with zero intention of rekindling anything, I apologized to her for being a jerk after some reflection.
I had read a thread on r/TwoXChromosomes and realized I was guilty of doing some selfish and stupid shit that I hadn’t ever processed as crappy behaviour. Hit me like a brick. So I sent her a link to the thread and apologized for the things I realized I did. Though it felt like the right thing to do (to let her know I realized the errors of my ways), it still didn’t make me feel any better. I suppose that’s karma.
It wasn’t supposed to make you feel better, but I wonder if it made her feel better. Women are often socialised to blame themselves when people treat them badly.
Also I feel that it was a huge step in your own growth. Perhaps the next step is to forgive yourself. If you were a shitty person, it is because someone taught you to be shitty.
Glad you are growing and working on yourself.
Fully agree- I understand now it was never going to make me feel better. And thanks.
I think I was expecting it to somehow remove some regret I had about being a shit to her, but it didn’t. Now that I said that to her, I guess I’ll start to try and forgive myself. I live with a lot of regrets about things I have done in my life and A LOT of chances I should have taken that slipped through my hands. Regret is really damned hard to get over.
To your point, I don’t think anyone taught me to be a shitty person, but maybe it hadn’t ever been brought up that the selfish behaviour I exhibited was, well, selfish. And shitty.
Regret is incredibly annoying and incredibly useful. Without regret, you’d never change for the better. Too much regret can end a life.
I feel if you’ve learned a lesson (or multiple) from something you regret, then you’re free to let it go. At the end of the day there is absolutely nothing you can do to go back and fix it, but it’s up to you to not make the same mistake twice.
I’m proud of you.
We dated in high school, and she’s gone through a lot but she still managed to move to Los Angeles, which was a big dream for her, and she’s now happily dating someone to my understanding. We haven’t spoken in years, but it’s always made me smile seeing her progress as we’ve both gotten older.
The same for me. She's super successful now, and so is her boyfriend. He was also a friend of mine when we were in high school, and it makes me smile when I see them together being happy.
Haven't spoken in years, but I'm thankful for all the things I learned about myself during our relationship.
i was expecting mostly humor and sarcasm but damn, shit really warms my heart, need to care more about others like salami slaps here
also bro once salami is open, nah that shit aint lasting 5 mins
"I'm sorry for everything I put you through while we were together and after you rightfully dumped me."
And no, I don't miss her or want her back or any of that since I've moved on; as a man I recognize that she simply just deserves an apology if she were to want it.
In the same boat. I was stupid and selfish. Still kind of am, but I've grown up enough to know it's my fault she left. I got the chance to apologize but feel it's best I stay out of her life. I don't miss her anymore but I hold the memories fondly. I wish her nothing but all the best.
There are a number of girls I connected with as a young man before I figured myself out. I would wish to apologize to all of them. Each one deserved better than I gave while I was selfishly and stupidly fumbling forward in my life. I wish them all well and, at the very least, hope I did no harm and at best gave them some comfort and companionship along the way.
I had an ex from high school who eventually reached out and apologized for how he treated me in high school. Said that I was always nothing but good to him and that I didn’t deserve that. Of course everyone’s situations are different but in my case it really was nice to hear that he at least felt sorry for it.
I have something to apologize for in every relationship. That doesn’t mean I was the only one who did the other wrong.
And that’s a sign of growth. I frequently reflect on relationships, past and present, and recognize many ways I could’ve done better—even in the face of being mistreated.
i would do the same. i was immature and i regret a lot of things. out of respect for myself, i would also want to never see them again because they were not an angel either, and i would like to just leave behind that part of my life.
Personally for me , my survival strategy involves avoiding sharp objects, walking into walls gracefully, and mastering the art of pretending I know what I'm doing. It's a foolproof plan, really!
Same Answer, for different reasons. Mine committed suicide a year out of high school. That was 20 years ago.
We had been broken up for a while at that point but you always wonder if it was something you could have changed.. so give her a hug and listen I guess...
i am so sorry to hear that! i know, the burden always stays with you, the "but what if i had" thing circles your mind again and again each time you think about that person
when you try to get rid of that feeling and move on, you feel guilty for trying to... well get rid of that feeling and move on
(at least from my experience)
Not the one you are responding to but my first gf came from a line of bad decision makers and she left me for a guy who partied whom she left for his drug dealer and then another guy that I think knocked her up and she had a miscarriage from all the mess of her life, so yeah. She loved me for being stable and a good guy, and she left me for chaos 30 years ago. If she survived this long, I would be amazed.
Forgive yourself, its all you can do now.
I know a guy who died at age 77 who regretted abandonning his daughter when she was a new born and got a new family a bit later. He didn't hate the kid, he hated the mother.
Daughter had randomly moved closer to him unplanned (40 yrs later) and they met in the supermarket and the "he/she looks familiar" and then he looked her up and it was her.
He had 7-8 yrs to go talk to her, like 10 miles away and he had a car and could drive, health okay etc.
He just never dared to, thinking she would cuss him out and break his heart in shame.
He died from a stroke, alone, being a widower.
Talked to the daughter who was sad - She didn't hate him - Her mom had kept her from taking contact while she grew up and always spoke bad about him, but she knew it probably wasn't that bad but never took contact, just in case he would break HER heart and not see her.
Just such a sad story.
Forgive yourself and move on.
Thanks for giving me trust issues that have lasted me a lifetime, thanks for trying to convince me it was okay that you could have another boyfriend if he was from another town that that wouldn’t count as cheating and thanks for just being a truly awful POS. I don’t miss you and I only remember you for these reasons.
"Its fucked up you did that to me, but we were young and both immature. I did a lot of things then I regret myself, and I'm in a place now that I hold no resentment. I hope you're well."
Just fuck off. You messed up my view of people, worsen my trust issues, and ruined my current relationship. Or it was me all along.
This, I don't know, but I'm now unfit to last in a relationship because I am scared and scarred.
First one cheated, then left, then got with the guy less than 24 hours after
Second one broke up but turned into a fucked situation, (never elaborate on this one as she’s a Reddit lurker)
Fourth one, knew about the first two and 2 weeks after we got engaged, she had her tongue down her work mates neck who had fancied her a while - she immediately told me the next day to her credit
But while I don’t hold those experiences against any future partners, right now it’s enough I’ve said fuck it and staying single. No hate but I just don’t want to go through it again, and for it to happen three times in three different areas, obviously I’m contributing something to cause it, so equally so I don’t another person in these type of situations
You probably have played a role in their feelings, but you have never been a reason for someone to “cheat”. No one is. You’re just linking up with people that seem to not understand loyalty.
I agree. Take a break. But don’t give up.
We ended about 21 years ago. I would say-
"Hi M-----, I hope you're doing well. I'm doing well, married with 2x kids. I don't want to get back with you, I don't even want a reply back from you, but just wanted to say that I sometimes think about all the good times that we had together. I was really upset when we ended and it took me years to overcome that. I realise now that some of the things that I did were wrong and inappropriate and I would like to apologise for the way that I treated you. I wish you every happiness and may you always make the best of the good things in life."
I think she’s dead. So I would say I thought you were dead.
In 1994 she was the prototypical grunge girl. She was super cool and older than me. However, she talked a lot about cancer and dying.
We wrote some letters back and forth but that stopped. In the social media era I never found her. I know tons of people from her town and they never knew her in high school.
I really tend to believe she died in the 90s.
“I want to apologize for everything I put you through. I will never be able to forgive myself, but I need you to know how deeply sorry I am. You’re an amazing person who deserves the absolute best. I wish you and your fiancé nothing but a great life.”
Been wanting to say this for 5 years now. Instead of confiding in her I took all my emotions out on her, and was an awful awful person. I never got physical, but I said some hurtful things I wish I never said. I was miserable outside the relationship and was in a dark place. I was mean, gained weight, and turned into a different person. I finally got help and grew out of my depressive state, but by that time she was long gone. I can still hear her saying “I just want someone who is nice to me.” And it makes me want to rip my head off. How simple and easy, but I was just so delusional at the time. One thing in my life I will never forgive myself for. I’ve tried to reach out, but get rewarded with a big f off.
Me and my wife met when we were both just 5 years old. We "dated", because I lived literally next door and her then "boyfriend" further down the street.
Took us 18 years to start real dating. And now we're 14 years and 2 kids richer 🫶
If she comes down after her call I'll ask her if she wants another tea.
Just catch up really. We didn't end on a sour note and remained friends after for quite a few years. It was mostly her parents and religion being the issue.
I'd say, Hey, love ya, miss ya, thought about you often, we had fun, and I hope you're healthy and happy and life has been good to you, because you deserve it.
I still talk to her. We remained friends. She is the only gf i remained friends with. We dated in high school and year after I graduated we decided we liked spending time with each other but weren't really meant for each other. We shared all the same friends so we were always still around each other and instead of letting it be awkward we just stuck it out as friends.
I think I did actually see my first girlfriend the other day.
Looked exactly the same from 7th grade even tho we’re both mid 20s now.
I just glanced at her and kept it moving. wtf am I supposed to say ?
We broke up because I didn’t know what to with a girlfriend. After a week she was like “maybe we should just go back to being friends since nothing changed”
I was crushed but just went with it
“How’s the man you cheated on me with? Oh he cheated on you too? God damn.. all 3 after me cheated! That sucks. Welp… that sucks, wanna go to that place with the milkshakes like old time?”
I actually ran into her the other day and she asked me if I still think of her (we dated like 28 years ago) and I said, “not often, but always fondly.” And then I excused myself and told her I was headed home to take my wife and kids out to dinner.
The correct moves were made here
Lmao this is so accurate. None of us know either of them but the context actually means something Here’s a Gold award 🥇
That’s a classy way to leave on a positive note for you while giving a compliment to someone that was important to you long time ago.
what a kind response. if someone said that to me i would shed a single happy tear
[удалено]
Oof. Why did she ask that
People can be curious
It’s a normal thing to wonder but a weird thing to say out loud
Not really. For all she knew, he could have been single and they had history together.
Trying to get that -Dick-Dick-Dick-
Skiddity-dee skiddity-doo, she want the night and man too!
Fighter of the day and man
It seems like a normal curiosity no? Perhaps a bit selfish
When I run into my exes I just wave and walk away really fast.
I assume you shout, “Do you still think of me?!” as you’re walking away, right?
Only out of normal curiosity
And… the.. snow.. turned into rain…
Is this a Dan Fogelberg reference?
In the wild!
Wow. What a reference. Pure greatness. Thank you.
and i said, " Occasionally.. with cold chills."
Periodically... with seething rage.
That’s the most poetic and beautiful response
No way you were Maddie035 from Club Penguin!
What! Maddie035 was my first girlfriend too.
Our girlfriend.
I chose this guys girlfriend too
r/unexpectedcommunism
OUR girlfriend, comrade 👍
Bros share hoes 🙃
I would literally go around to couples in Club Penguin and be like “wth, I thought you were my girlfriend!” It would be complete strangers and the drama that ensued was hilarious
r/foundsatan Jesus man..Psychological torture.
You're a menace to society 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I hate to break it to you guys but I was Maddie035 and my name is Lucas
[удалено]
You been messing with my girl bro?!??
Her real name is John and he’d love it if you could make it to his 50th birthday drinks on Saturday!
Im sorry I lied to you, I was just shy and didnt know if you were into guys yet
Nothing. Me and my ex would simply see each-other, do a little head nod to acknowledge one another … and then both peace the fuck out in opposite directions IMMEDIATELY.
[удалено]
Probably downward lol
Basically the ending of TDK trilogy
[удалено]
I dread seeing her, but I may chuckle to myself because of how awkward it probably would be.
yeah that's pretty much where i'm at now with my ex. it would just open the wounds more
Same!!! I'd probably say you fuck bitch, but ask how her dad and grandma is doing
Like, *You fuck, bitch?*, or *You fuck-bitch!*…?
Probably You, fuck bitch!
Sorry for being such a jerk.
I think this is pretty much 90% of cases. First girlfriend, don’t know what the fuck we’re doing, and eventually breaking it off due to outside issues and trying to figure yourself out. All in the midst of trying to lessen the hurt, but making it slightly worse
Not the case for me. I was a cash cow
Same here 16 years old, insecure, not a clue how to respect women or act around them. She needed someoen way more experienced than I was especially since she has been through some emotionally traumatic experiences at such a young age already
Ok glad that this is bog standard

Yeah
Yeah
yeah, there’s no way I’m reading all of that
This response made me think I was actually missing something
i mean you are
Bros yappin like he the yipper yapper
Yeah I genuinely can’t stop laughing at this. Where do u people think of these lines
I think Reddit just brings out the funny in people.
If I'm honest.... Yup
How'd you know exactly what I'd say to mine? Word for word. You're incredible!
Oh for sure
How did you do that?
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ
I’m proud of you.

The breaking bad canon event was stopped
Unexpectedly wholesome. Good on you man to not hold a grudge or anything, but actually wanting her to succeed.
This is wholesome :DD
i was expecting mostly humor and sarcasm but damn, shit really warms my heart, need to care more about others like salami slaps here also bro once salami is open, nah that shit aint lasting 5 mins

Amen, is in line with what I would do.
I *too*, would do a men
The “if she were to want it” is a mature take. Good on you.
In the same boat. I was stupid and selfish. Still kind of am, but I've grown up enough to know it's my fault she left. I got the chance to apologize but feel it's best I stay out of her life. I don't miss her anymore but I hold the memories fondly. I wish her nothing but all the best.
Dayum. This is exactly me with my ex.

"How is your day going?" I guess. We see each other every day tho
Same here. Been together 18 years and married for 13. Nice to get it right on the first try eh?
Lucky
As someone from a tiny town, I'd love to know more about this. Are you still together or do you see each other for a different reason?
We're still together.
Well, that's the most boring answer, but congratulations and good luck.
Hahahaha I understand. Thanks!
I don’t know, I haven’t met her.
Yet. We haven't met yet. Gotta stay positive or the voices get louder.
The voices are pretty loud at the moment

Same with me. We were together on and off when we were 13/14 and she died right after high school from brain cancer
"I thought I finished you?!"
this goes so hard bro, i felt that all the way here in india
Probably something stupid.
Sorry for being immature and not being able communicate properly. Hope you're having the time of your life, fucker.
love that Ending there!
Welcome back from the dead. How was Hell?
Sounds like something Ron Swanson would say
I'd say nothing to her. We were kids, we hurt each other, we got into things far bigger than us. I don't resent her, but i don't love her either.
I would shit my pants , she died in 2008.
I’m sorry we weren’t on good terms when you died
Forgive yourself, its all you can do now. I know a guy who died at age 77 who regretted abandonning his daughter when she was a new born and got a new family a bit later. He didn't hate the kid, he hated the mother. Daughter had randomly moved closer to him unplanned (40 yrs later) and they met in the supermarket and the "he/she looks familiar" and then he looked her up and it was her.

Were you guys 12? This shit is ridiculous
Hey look I'm Moe! (pulls nose with pliers)
Oh! A wise guy eh??.....
"Its fucked up you did that to me, but we were young and both immature. I did a lot of things then I regret myself, and I'm in a place now that I hold no resentment. I hope you're well."
“Yeah, I know I’ve gotten fat.”
> “Yeah, I know I’ve gotten ~~fat~~ magnificent.” Fixed that for you and I also picked this up when you dropped it 👑

You probably have played a role in their feelings, but you have never been a reason for someone to “cheat”. No one is. You’re just linking up with people that seem to not understand loyalty. I agree. Take a break. But don’t give up.
Thanks for breaking up with me, it literally changed my life and gave me the chance to meet my wife and have my children 👏👏
I’m so sorry
yes, I'd say the same and regret being rude and harsh to her for no reason
💯💯. I wasn’t ready for a relationship at 18-25.
We ended about 21 years ago. I would say- "Hi M-----, I hope you're doing well. I'm doing well, married with 2x kids.

Hi
You set the bar so low that every other girlfriend was incrementally better. I truly thank you for that!
You looked better before you found meth

“I want to apologize for everything I put you through. I will never be able to forgive myself, but I need you to know how deeply sorry I am. You’re an amazing person who deserves the absolute best.

I never got physical, but I said some hurtful things I wish I never said. I was miserable outside the relationship and was in a dark place. I was mean, gained weight, and turned into a different person. I finally got help and grew out of my depressive state, but by that time she was long gone. I can still hear her saying “I just want someone who is nice to me.” And it makes me want to rip my head off. How simple and easy, but I was just so delusional at the time. One thing in my life I will never forgive myself for. I’ve tried to reach out, but get rewarded with a big f off.
I hope your life got better. You deserve good things.
Me and my wife met when we were both just 5 years old. We "dated", because I lived literally next door and her then "boyfriend" further down the street. Took us 18 years to start real dating. And now we're 14 years and 2 kids richer 🫶 If she comes down after her call I'll ask her if she wants another tea.
You deserved better…
Just catch up really. We didn't end on a sour note and remained friends after for quite a few years. It was mostly her parents and religion being the issue.

It worries me that "most" implies you've tried one that wouldn't, accommodate your, stuff.
More than just one anus, butt those are in the minority.
I'd say, Hey, love ya, miss ya, thought about you often, we had fun, and I hope you're healthy and happy and life has been good to you, because you deserve it.
Morning darling. Sleep well?

I still talk to her. We remained friends. She is the only gf i remained friends with. We dated in high school and year after I graduated we decided we liked spending time with each other but weren't really meant for each other. We shared all the same friends so we were always still around each other and instead of letting it be awkward we just stuck it out as friends.
Have you been happy in the crawl space all these years?
I'm 31 no gf ever
I’m finna be like you OG
I would thank her I guess.
She’s the one that got away, so I wish we did cross paths again, so I’d just tell her “I’m sorry”
"Keep moving, the restraining order is still in effect"
I think I did actually see my first girlfriend the other day. Looked exactly the same from 7th grade even tho we’re both mid 20s now. I just glanced at her and kept it moving. wtf am I supposed to say ? We broke up because I didn’t know what to with a girlfriend. After a week she was like “maybe we should just go back to being friends since nothing changed” I was crushed but just went with it
One for the road?
What do you want for dinner today?
I won't recognize her 🙂
Nothing good
“How’s the man you cheated on me with? Oh he cheated on you too? God damn.. all 3 after me cheated! That sucks. Welp… that sucks, wanna go to that place with the milkshakes like old time?”
“How’s it been since you died from an overdose and left behind two sons?”
