Yup. Must likely a rebound as she already had him “lined up” before she left you. Most likely he had the qualities she thought you where lacking. As time paases by she will soon see that all the other things you offered was also very important (The old saying: you never know what you had untill its gone)… Hope this helps. If you need to talk more I think it would be better if you open a brand new topic on this, and I will be happy to assist.
Let this topic stay with the topic starter.

No I rejected them. Simpy because I had no feelings for them anymore, and because I had worked so much on myself that I was attracting even hotter girls. I had upgraded so to speak
If you should take your ex back or not is up to you. When the time comes I am sure you know the answer yourself. When she stands in front of you and tells you she wants to give it a second chance you will know deep down if you want to or not.
I have heard of many relationship that became even stronger when they got back together. But be prepared that getting them back is the easy part. The hard part cones after that. You need to put a lot of work into getting the trust back, and YOU need to be able to forgive.
thank you for all the advice man i REALLY appreciate it. in a way i already have forgiven. I can understand what she’s going through. and i was always willing to put the work in. if i decide to take her back, he biggest problem may be trust. But i plan on having a huge talk if we get back together and talking about the problems that lead to our breakup to begin with. i just feel that if we can solve those problems then i can trust her again. or maybe i sbouldnt do that. Ill figure it out! lol. Thanks again!
Not something you have to worry about right now. It will be some time before you get to that point
Your welcome
Hey @CreeD
I agree with what you say on G.I.G.S.
My ex does have commitment issues and she identifies with all the symptoms.
What are your opinions on handling an ex who has GIGS and is in a rebound?
one last question if possible @CreeD. During that time when ur exs were in rebounds with G.I.G.S, did u keep in contact with them, or just NC the entire time!?
NC the entire time… 100% NC…
I did it for myself, because I wasn’t interrested in getting them back. All I wanted was to show them what they missed out on. I guess that is why it worked.
@CreeD can you read my post and give some advice please https://www.forum.exbackpermanently.com/boards/topic/he-says-he-would-like-to-get-back-but/page/11/
@Cree what do you think of this? Me and my ex were together for over three years! She broke up with me about a month ago because she said I don’t show her enough affection and stuff! She still says she loves me and said she’s there for me but she hid this other guy that she is talking to from me! Now I see pictures of them together on Facebook and stuff and she looks happy but she still contacts me and talks to me about all her problems? Then last week she said she messed up and said she shouldn’t of tried to let another guy in but she’s still seeing him everyday and now she’s blocked me on Facebook? What do you think? Is he a rebound? Why does she look so happy? Why does she still contact me and tell me she loves me more than anything? And she always talks about “if we get back together”?

You guys help me out and I’ll help you out
Just by reading you post here is the first that comes to mind:
The romance had faded, and the relationship has become borring. Very normal for a relationship, so dont beat yourself up. She gave you the reason when she broke up: you need to be more romantic! There is something for you to work on. Also: remember that when someone breaks up with you they NEVER tell the entire truth, so there may be other reasons for the break up. In this case a new guy.
I am not saying she had him while you were together. I dont know her, so it is impossible for me to tell. But she may have been interrested in exploring her options. She wanted to see if there was another guy out there that had the qualities you didnt (a romantic guy)
This guy,sounds a lot like a rebound.
He is romantic, so she have found a guy with the qualities she was looking for.
Dont worry about how happy she seems right now. It is only normal. she is on a high from everything that has been going on, and because she is in the honeymoon phase of their “relationship”.
She will enjoy this for 1-3 months, untill the honeymoon phase is over. The she will start comparing him to you.
Who will win?
He has the qualities that you didnt (being romantic), but she will now see that all the other things you offered to the relationship was also important to her. Is he better then you in all these areas? Maybe… But we dont know.
All we know is that in terms of romance he wins… So start working on your romance skills so you look like the better choice.
Yeah but why does she still contact me when she has a problem or even has a bad dream? And she talks about all this stuff about getting back together but she tells me I deserve better? I don’t understand that
But she does work with him but she lived with me the past two years and I took care of her and I was romantic I just showed it in other ways you know?
lol looks like creeds the expert here xD everyone wants some of his advice!
It’s just so weird cause just last week she was calling me baby and babe and stuff and saying any girl would be lucky to have you and now this?
It is always easier to be an expert when you dont have feelings envolved. When it comes to my own breakups I always do the exact opposite of what I should be doing.
@shelden21
She sounds like a very insecure person. Am I right?
She is very insecure
And I remember one day I stopped texting her and the day before we were perfectly fine and then she texted me and was like " I’m good on you and was like ignore me all day" and I tried explaining to her I was busy but she didn’t understand
