His explanation was totally Chaos. I'm with you on the understanding part - or lack thereof.chauncey said:I wish I could comprehend what the hell you were trying to say in each of those paragraphs, it sounded relevant.At Christmas I had two nieces in their mid/late 20s seeking relationship advice. With one, her mom my sis, told me the history for over an hour. It was so complicated and confusing to them. It was simple. He was seeing someone else and he was conflicted. They both flipped out about this, not because they agreed, but because... Buckfast... they were positive that wasn't it. Shame on me. A lot of anger vented my way for this accusation. Drama queens. He was too great a guy for that (also an attorney). I shrugged.
The other told a short story. I asked if it bothered her that he was doing the sex with someone else. She didn't flip out. She explained to me that they were just friends and they had been too honest (a work relationship) for her not to trust them. She was... Buckfast... positive that wasn't it, and disappointed wise old uncle Chaos didn't have some sort of clever strategic advice for her.
Welp.
I can't imagine what else you'd be trying to accomplish with your paranoia and accusations.Wait, you think I'm trying to be cool for a bunch of neck beards on the internet lol.You do realize, that you don't look "cool", or "smart" or anything other than a pathetic, insecure, looney tune...right?Weeber said:What the hell are u blabbering about? She had DAYS to delete any incriminating messages.Or you know delete them as soon as she reads/sends them.Buckfast 1 said:I took her up on the offer to see the text messages right away, so she really didn't have the opportunity to delete anything. She also regularly lets me use her phone for stuff and is open with her phone password, so she's never been the type to try to hide her phone from me. You could tell from the tone of the text messages that there wasn't more going on than what was displayed in the texts. She also said that I am welcome to look at her text messages anytime that I want because she had absolutely nothing to hide, although I don't intend to take her up on that.Zow said:oh come onnirad3 said:She volunteered to show you text messages? Red flag.
You can easily go through a text conversation and delete ones you want.
Did I leave that part out?Did you at least bang her after this convo?
So you disagree that she didn't have enough time to delete text messages prior to there talk, for which he told her about days in advance?I can't imagine what else you'd be trying to accomplish with your paranoia and accusations.Wait, you think I'm trying to be cool for a bunch of neck beards on the internet lol.You do realize, that you don't look "cool", or "smart" or anything other than a pathetic, insecure, looney tune...right?Weeber said:What the hell are u blabbering about?

I don't recall seeing them.Nah, I'm not going to post pics of the current girlfriend. I've already given you guys tons of pics of the ex-wife, which is more than just about anyone else has ever done around here.Did we ever get pics?Buckfast 1 said:I really appreciate all the thoughts and advice in here. It was really helpful in thinking through the issue from different perspectives. I will certainly let you guys know if it turns out that I was wrong about the ex-boyfriend.
Dude, that is totally a secret code they've worked out.Ex: "What does your schedule look like this week? Can I take Molly for a run one day?"
GF: "Buckfast and I are going to a concert on Thursday night. You can pick her up around 6:00 p.m. on Thursday if you want."
Ex: "Thanks. Have fun."
Wait. What kind of dog are we talking about here?I think all you doubters are really underestimating me. You guys really think that I should be worried about a 40-year old REI employee whose best attribute is his "niceness," who got broken up with by my girlfriend because of their lackluster sex life, and whose highlight of his life is a yappy little mutt from the shelter? GTFO.

Here's a picture of the dog.Wait. What kind of dog are we talking about here?I guess I was assuming this whole time it was a manly dog that the dude maybe crushed more on than the girl.I think all you doubters are really underestimating me.

The ex can NOT have a key to her apartment.Unless Buckfast gives a new Friday chapter involving a threesome this thread will be buried by the end of the weekend. Just as a recap for the young fbgs around here what are some lessons or ground rules for significant others/wives and their communication/involvement with their exes?
1. No dog sharing.
2. No texting/messaging on fb.
3. No talking on the phone.
4. No hikes, walks, dinners, lunches, or any other date type activities.
5???
Am I missing anything here? Are there any acceptable exceptions to the above rules? This is assuming there are no human children involved, obviously if kids are involved there will be some type of communication for the rest of their lives.
And probably shouldn't work off his phone bill by cleaning the new boyfriend's poop.The ex can NOT have a key to her apartment.Unless Buckfast gives a new Friday chapter involving a threesome this thread will be buried by the end of the weekend.

Grats on how everything turned out, Buck. Way to ruin the thread, Cool Hand Luke.
Next step?.......convince the GF to just give the flaming homosexual his dog and be rid of him entirely.
Sure she's telling the truth about that?I think all you doubters are really underestimating me.

I got better things to spend a few racks on than buying off under-employed, under-performing exes.if you really want the dog offer the guy 2-3k. If he turns it down he's using the dog to stay in touch with her.
And if he's a needy fella, he may have a spare if he turns it in..Dude still has a key to her place. This story ain't over yet.
Oh, that's whack.And if he's a needy fella, he may have a spare if he turns it in..Dude still has a key to her place. This story ain't over yet.![]()
Yes it is, if the guy is whacko...Oh, that's whack.And if he's a needy fella, he may have a spare if he turns it in..Dude still has a key to her place. This story ain't over yet.![]()
You mean 40yo physical trainer ex BF with a bigger dong than you and a key to your girlfriends place? You're not getting it.I think all you doubters are really underestimating me.

Second phone, dummy. There's a second phone involved.nirad3 said:She volunteered to show you text messages? Red flag.

I missed this in my skimming. Lol at "all is well now."Dude still has a key to her place.
This is either a very well played shtick, or very poorly played by the OP in real life. I can't tell which.
fair point, not like she would ever have sex with someone like that....for 6 years.I think all you doubters are really underestimating me.

6 years....my guess is she was waiting on him to pop the question, he never did, and they broke up.Yeah but she's so over that now. Is this chick hotter than the ex wife or less hot?fair point, not like she would ever have sex with someone like that....for 6 years.I think all you doubters are really underestimating me.

To be honest, I'm starting to think his girlfriend is actually a man.So you disagree that she didn't have enough time to delete text messages prior to there talk, for which he told her about days in advance?I can't imagine what else you'd be trying to accomplish with your paranoia and accusations.Wait, you think I'm trying to be cool for a bunch of neck beards on the internet lol.You do realize, that you don't look "cool", or "smart" or anything other than a pathetic, insecure, looney tune...right?Weeber said:What the hell are u blabbering about?
