Here is a letter i just sent to Dear Abby. Im sure she wont get to it in less
than five years. So could you guys give me advice?
Dear Abby,
I am a 20 years old, I ended a 4 year relationship once and for good 5 months
ago.The break up took 6 months to be finalized. I played cat and mouse with
him back and forth for those 6 long months. He won, and I was in the midst of
moving back in with him. When I found out he was still seeing the woman he was
with during our "break", even after he had assured me it was over.
He fooled me countless times and this was the last straw, I ended all contact
once and for all.
He is still with Emily, and I am still trying to start over. I feel foolish and completly
betrayed by man. My parents are encouraging me to start dating. Ive made the assumption that all men are like this. Not just by my experiences,
the assumption was conlusive with all of my friends, family and acquaintences
experiences. Is there something in the water that is making all these men
complete scoundrels? I am scared to death to get involved with another man.
David completly took advantage of my trust, nievity, and love. My heart is broken
and now I have no desire to be involved with any man as more than a friend.
Im still attracted to men, but when I see one that I could possibly get involved
with, all I can think about are the terrible things he must have done to his last
girlfriend and I turn the other way. Please tell me im over reacting,
I dont want to be alone for the rest of my life.
Sincerely,
Man Hater
