Am I horrible?
My friend's FB status said something this afternoon about it took years to build her relationship and only 6 days for it to come apart (ie. she and her bf broke up). The moment I saw that I thought, "yes!" She is an amazing person. She's very outgoing, and into tons of things including being involved in the community, going to lots of art shows/supporting the arts, recently decided to take a few college courses, etc. Her bf was the quietest person. I couldn't even have a conversation with him, it was so awkward. I feel bad for her. I know she thought she was going to marry this guy, but I also know she can find someone else as amazing as herself.
Re: Am I horrible?
Were there other reasons that you didn't like the guy or was it just because it was awkward for you to talk to him? If it's the latter, then I would say that's kinda bad, but if it's the former and there are other reasons that you didn't like him (like he was a jerk to your friend or something) then I would say it's ok.
They were totally mismatched. I just didn't see what he had to offer her.
Was just talking to another friend (C) and she'd gotten the whole scoop over the weekend. Apparently our friend (A) gave her BF an ultimatum. Propose or move out. He said he isn't and won't be ready to move forward in their relationship (doesn't want to marry - I think he has a track history of long relationships not going anywhere). She moved out. BUT C said she was speaking with A's bf at a party within the last few wks and he said when A breaks up with him he's joining the army/navy. Sounds like he was waiting for it. A just turned 30, and it sounds like she felt like she had to get her life 'in order' whatever that means.
Then no, you're not horrible. He kinda sounds like a douche.
From your OP, it kinda sounded like the reason you were happy that they broke up was because YOU didn't like him.
I have nothing against him. I can't hate someone my friend is dating, but I didn't think they were right for each other. I was happy because I think she deserves more, and she does. I think partners should compliment each other.
She just messaged me and she sounds very optimistic. She feels like she has something to learn and will recover in the next couple months. I think she knew in the back of her mind what would happen when she told him propose or get out. She has known him for a long time and has seen him in another relationship...
He said this 3 times in one day to my friend. Nice right?
