Theres this girl who recently became close to me... we talked for hours until the morning comes, we never ran out of topics to share, we are even "friends with benefits" at night...Then just when im about to fall for her she told me she will be going and that she have a fiancee in melbourne and that she loves him more.Leaving me behind, i dont know if i will be hurt or what im confused , a part of me is telling me she betrayed me when she never at all told me bout the relationship that she have in melbourne,but then again maybe all we had were just prolonged one night stands... and nothing serious at all. What do you think is the best thing that i should be doing in these kind of situation? just let it be and move on? i need to know what you think my friends...

I'm so sorry Setsuna! I may not have come so close to how you actually must have felt. But I would be equally confused and mad if it had been me. As a friend I would say what's past is past! Just take a look at the positive side. Wouldn't it be now than later when things between both of you might probably become more complicated. She wasn't sure of herself probably. And it's best to forgive her, forget her and move on. What lies ahead, your future, demands a lot more of your attention than something petty like this in the past. I know it's not that easy! Cry it out, scream it out, punch and kick the punching bag if you may, but don't loose yourself. You just have to move on! I wish you all the luck in the world. Take care!

Thanks alot my friend that means alot to me too. I used to think that these situations just happens in movies but now that i experienced it first hand, even if im a guy it really hurts. I mean falling for someone that fast, i never saw it coming, i never thought that something like this will actually pierce me. Funny thing is we guys always thought we are tough and that we can take on almost anything but there are times that we can be so weak as well and we can cry too. But as you just said, i need to move on and go on with my life , yes it might be a lil bit hard but every wound is healing day by day, it might not be fast but it will be healed sometime soon. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts and advice to me.

What can break a girl's heart can break a guy's either. It's probably how we perceive things differently that makes us handle things differently. But there are always lots of similarities as well. The fact is that guys are just as humans too. Love your positive outlook. That's the least one could do. If you continue with such a positive attitude, believe me, you would be yourself again far sooner than you ever thought. Take this as an experience and you would be better off.

Again your right we may be guys , looks tougher than most girls but when we fall we also fall like human being do. I just hate it but i admit my mistake as well in this situation i let myself be carried away by her charm as well. Yes at first it was all lust and wanting to have some fun but i really never thought it will be out of bounce sometime soon, good thing this time my mind is pretty clear already and slowly but surely im able to face the day again with a smile. Thank you very much for all the people who gave me good advice and made me wake up from this misery that im in right now.

It's a shame she wasn't honest w/u from the start. I think u both used each other for the 'night benefits'. That's too bad that u let your heart get involved but it's hard not to. Hope u find u a good honest girl w/no baggage anywhere else.

Yes too bad i got my heart pretty much involved. Sometimes i find some girls very interesting, its not that i just see girls as toys or what, what i mean is there are type of girls worth loving and there are those who are not. At first i thought this girl here was, my mind is telling me not to get involved with her but for some reason well bed scenes can be pretty tough to resist for us guys sometimes lol . But hey thanks for the advice my friend and your right i will find someone else whose pretty much available and will be able to take care of my heart the way i will take care of hers. Have a great day and thank for the comment

setsuna26, There's an old adage that says: "You reap what you sow", and since you knew from day one that this relationship is nothing but benefits. What else do you expect? I am sorry but if you build your tower on stilts then don't even expect it to be successfully completed. You will just see it tumbling and eventually bury you with its rubble. If you really want to start a serious relationship, then let me suggest that you start with the right footing. Stop doing these "friends with benefits" paradigm and learn what it means to be faithful, honest and committed. Not being judgmental but if she could do such a thing with you while she is committed to a relationship - stop and think what a cuckold you will be when the sides are changed. So what if she has the hottest bod or looks? There's just every thing and part of her that says that she is not private property and she is meant to be shared. I say you had better wake yourself up and move on.

Everything you said is right. I should have known this will be the result of the action that ive been doing. I was so wrong bout it, and i believe i deserve whatever it is that im feeling right now. I just need to pick myself back on track again and learn from my mistakes. Never play with fire if you cant resist the heat that much lol . Anyways with this experience comes alot of lessons and im really happy to know that alot of friends in real life whom are ready to listen and to give their point of view and are all concern bout me. Thank you for the advice and for making me realize that i was wrong and that i need to correct myself.Godbless and have a great day

First she betrayed both you and the fiance. I'd let that one go and do your best to move on. All that stuff she was doing friends with benefits and talking to you at all hours of the night was cheating on her fiance so how do you know she wouldn't do the same to you? After all she claims to love him more yet who was she with all the time? Move on and eventually you'll find someone who doesn't play those kind of games.

Thank you cupkitties lucky for me i have lots of friends in our place who understand my situation as well, its not easy but i will try my best to move on and just forget what happened. Its more like an experience that will remain with me and thats all it is. What matters is that i still know how to love and i know pretty soon i will find someone who will be truly love me and not just for the hot times that i can give them. Sometimes our world is full of people whom dont care about the feelings of others i just wish they will be able to understand and feel that we should try to honor what other people feels too and not to be too selfish and just think bout ourselves. Thanks for the comment and for the advice. Its pretty much appreciated.

I think the right thing to do is maybe forget her. After all, she did betray you, and left yo for someone else. There's someone better out there for you; this girl was just using you. You should find someone else, distract yourself. After all, she didn't really seem to care about your feelings. Someday, you'll see her unhappy with her fiance and she'll come back begging for you. That'll be your chance to prove to her what she is missing, and for her to feel the karma that she deserves.

Yeah thats what im planning to do just to move on and try to forget her as fast as i could. Im sure theres alot of good girls out there where in i can turn my attention too. But i also admit my mistake because i agreed to be used by her in some ways i used her too to satisfy my cravings as well. But i never thought that she will be way too much of deceit anyways thanks for the advice and im glad that alot of people are mature enough to give me good advice i appreciate it alot

This is crazy sets. I would just chalk it up as experience, learn from it and move on. What doesn't kill us, makes us stronger. You will know better next time. Move slower and get to know the ins and outs of the girls before moving to the next level. Outright ask if she is seeing anyone else. Get to know what she wants out of the friendship first before becoming intimate to avoid being hurt even more emotionally. Look after you, first and foremost.

You could tell her how you feel, but since she has already told you how she feels, there probably isn't anything you can do about it other than let her go.

Just moved on and their is nothing to wait for when you are already learn she likely have other interest to other than you. If ever have encounter the same situation i really never felt bad or relying on some guess feeling when their is nothing to rely on. I just pass the time and it is rather a friendly gestures. Just taking time to know each other does not mean their is something need to be happen and expect for something. i experience the same things an d for me their is nothing formal or serious happening unless he or she say something more than the usual messages. So nothing to concludes and nothing to expect to is better than taking other interpretation when their is none to hope for..:)

Hi Setsuna. I think she betrayed you because she didn't tell you about her love in another place. Maybe she was looking for someone else and she didn't think you was exactly what she was looking for. Some people are always looking for something better then what they have. I would write her off and move on with my life. I wouldn't forget the experiences you had with her, I would next time I met someone I was thinking about ask them right off the bat if they were with someone else though. It was a learning experience move on an be happy in what ever you do in your life.

Hi Setsuna. Well at least you learned a valuable lesson and won't make the same mistake. Good luck God has someone special for you, you just haven't run into her yet. But when you do your life will feel as full as it can be. Your happiness will be well rewarded because of things like this! Trust in God pray about it and ask HIM to send you someone special HE will. I know I ask God for my new husband and we have a great life together.

And i will keep my heart always checked if im going to play with fire . Thank you for commenting and im hoping to see more of your thoughts pretty soon. Happy mylotting!

Just let it be and move on. After all you did say that you were just friends with benefits. I don't think she betrayed you, but she certainly betrayed her fiancee didn't she. To be honest I don't think she was ever looking for anything more with you. So forget about her, put it down to experience and move on.

Yeah i think its not at all worth the time thinking bout. I mean in the first place the only thing we shared is our hot moments together and thats just bout it. My mistake is somehow i expected something more now i realized theres nothing more to expect. So i just pick my clothes lol and move on with my life and find another hottie to begin my relationship with. Someone who will take care and make me feel good inside and out. Someone who will be with me in times of crisis and in times of pain. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and being a part of this topic of mine . Have a great day!

Always try to build a relationship with a girl not on the premise, "She will never betray me" but on the premise, "What if she betrays me". People who go on pinning hopes on any and every thing, more often than not are bound to get disappointed. Obvious inference I can draw from the incident you have narrated is the girl made a good use of you. She had her fun and got from you what she wanted. Moreover, she left you writhing in pain and with a greater longing for her. She knew exactly how you would feel. All you know she must be smiling to herself. May be she does not have anyone in Melbourne, and she cooked up that story for greater effect. Now draw a solace that you had your fun too. Would you get into an everlasting relationship with someone who goes about hoping in and out of bed just for sake of pleasure? Consider yourself lucky that she did not take you for a ride for too long. Maybe if she had to stretch friendship with you little further you would finally find yourself in a lurch. In that case, you would have been sitting there nursing deeper wounds. Count your blessings and wait patiently for miss right to come along since you are waiting for one. This kind of escapades would only bring you more heartache.
