I dont think OP ever confirmed if the initial rumors he mentioned turned out to be true.
You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?
Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.
One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.
Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
And yet, there may have been other women who cheated on you without you ever finding out because they did not exhibit the behavioural changes described above. There have been studies showing that between 10 and 20% of "fathers" are unknowingly raising children who are not theirs. This would not be possible if the symptoms of cheating were so easy to detect. Some women are terrible at hiding their cheating, while others are quite adept at it. Only the OP can decide if his girlfriend is to be believed.When a woman is cheating, her strange behaviour isn't very subtle. You'll notice that something's very different about her. For the two times I found out I was being cheated on, the women suddenly developed new tastes in music, a switch in their favourite radio station, their patterns of going out were different, they had some very new hobbies that they were extremely excited about, they would get all dressed up for mundane occasions, and there's probably a few other things I don't remember.
And that is why EVERY MAN that gets told that the stork is on the way should get a DNA test once the baby is born no matter the length or seriousness of the relationship with the mother or whether married or not. I'd even tell her well before the due date that I'm going to have one conducted post-delivery without shame or hesitation.And yet, there may have been other women who cheated on you without you ever finding out because they did not exhibit the behavioural changes described above.

It's a shame that you can't get a DNA test before being forced to pay for an abortion. You are at their mercy in that situation.And that is why EVERY MAN that gets told that the stork is on the way should get a DNA test once the baby is born no matter the length or seriousness of the relationship with the mother or whether married or not.

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
...and that's the thing that gets me. How do you know the "very close friend" wasn't lying? I used to have a close friend who would play pranks on me just to fvck with my relationships. It was some very serious 5hit that he thought was hilarious. The best thing I ever did was kick him out of my life.I dont think OP ever confirmed if the initial rumors he mentioned turned out to be true.
I'm sorry to hear that. None of us can really tell what was going on. We'll just have to rely on your judgement that she wasn't worthy of keeping around.Just wanted to let you all know that I ended this relationship the other day. It was ugly
Thank you very much for the support,...and that's the thing that gets me. How do you know the "very close friend" wasn't lying?

Regardless, there are plenty more women out there, and you can usually find one who's better.
