    hey hey…. so is it weird to be upset that my ex-girlfriend is dating some other guy now? I mean yeah i already have a bf and it's my fault that i broke up with her since i'm gay, but i didn't expect to feel jealous over this. i don't know if its just me being possessive or what. :confused:

    Why should you feel jealous if you're gay? I can understand being protective, but jealousy only occurs when you feel insecure about something that you value.

    If you have a bf now you should be happy for her. Otherwise it's not very fair to your boyfriend. Unless her new bf is a jerk, that's a different story!

    She didn't wait long did she?

    I think it is natural to have some 'residual' feelings and for feeling a bit sad about it … but I think it will pass.

    I think it's normal to feel a little bit sad or even annoyed about it, even if it's not a really logical reaction. The important thing is to realize that this shouldn't be a problem for you and just let it go. You're going to seek a different path to find happiness and she'll have to do the same. :slight_smile:

    lol to be fair… i waited less.

    i think it's more of a "ugh i don't want you to date that guy" type thing since i really don't like him.

    i don't know. like i had a small amount of romantic feelings for her but absolutely nothing sexual. i think i'm just being stupid and wishing she still liked me.

    but yea… i'll live.
