How much Older?

[yy]

Thank you to all those forumers who cared, and to those two members who had so kindly PMed their concern over my emotional welfare.

I'm very sorry to say that he is one of the first Middle Eastern guy I have ever known in person in my whole life but he has also lived up to every single bit of the negative stereotype that people have about Middle Eastern men just having some fun in Western countries with zero respect for women or women's feelings as mutual humans. I'm sad that I discovered it only after our break-up. Even more sad that I had thought of him and his frds as genuine people, genuine frds who care.

I will put what he has said to me before at 95% lies (some of which he had indirectly confessed, now that he wants out of the relationship).

A last comment here, not sure if it's logical or just to make myself not hate him (cos I hate hating people as it's just so wrong) - maybe he's suffering a lot inside of him to hate and disregard women so much?

For sure he most likely will never know a truly loving and caring relationship based on trust and respect between equal souls.

I have no doubt that there are better times ahead for you.

YY,

I am sorry the relationship had a bad turn. We can only take these things philosophically--we live and love and get hurt and get healed, and live and...who knows what is next? But if it's any consolation to you, the good news is that it seems the worst and most painful part in this episode is over. I hope your recovery will be fast!

My best wishes!

Hi yy

Well have read your posts as they developed .... Sometimes you have to go through something like this, to appreciate someone special .... Who I have no doubt will come into you life. Put this experience behind you now ... And move on :-)

Thanks all... I appreciate you all very much.

During trying times like this, I am really glad and grateful to the Buddha and myself that I have taken the 5 precepts, and in this case, especially the 3rd precept so that I can more easily walk away from this relationship knowing I have suffered less heartache and emotional/physical complications than what may have been otherwise. N I guess it is only during such difficult times when the true protective effects of precepts are manifested; that it serves to filter those people who will really matter in your lives and are worth keeping, from those with only sweet but empty promises which are so full of deceit and harm

Actually Bhudda didn't help you,but you need to help yourself with consciences, I experienced the wound and painful also when I pretended to live without conscientious,cos I' d just wanna live with the integration. I understand about this sorrow, I think you should make your paces forward don't look back to the problem. Don't wait ! I think if you can forget it the victory is awaiting for you.
