Just found out my ex here in the dorms is telling other people sh!t. I found this out from talking to this girl I know. She said that my ex said I was an a**hole and some other crap. Anyways how should I respond to this?
"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
Ex Running Her Mouth...

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Ignore it, shes obviously just trying to get a rise out of you and some validation/attention. She's your ex, she's gonna say you are an a**hole.amnbyrd said:Just found out my ex here in the dorms is telling other people sh!t. I found this out from talking to this girl I know.

Ignore it like Juanalot has said or if you are questioned about this simply say to people that your ex is behaving immaturely because she still cannot get over that you two have broken up.
If the person tries to question you further to try and prove your ex right and squeeze a bit more drama out of the situation for themselves to be entertained by avoid this by saying "there's nothing else to say".
To try and justify yourself further than the simple explanations just fuels people's drama need and gets them wondering and debating and taking sides about whose right but if you cut this off with a short answer and don't entertain people's continued questioning you come off as the rational sane one looking good from that point on regardless of what else she says about you.

Don't worry about the damage. If a girl is actually interested in you and an ex tells her your an azzhole, it will likely work in your favour. She'll ignore the women as a scorned ex, and also she'll see that your a man and won't take sh1t from a women and she'll want to get to know you.
Curious what did you do to make her so upset?! what were the reasons the two of you broke up?!amnbyrd said:Just found out my ex here in the dorms is telling other people sh!t.

"She's Out of Your League"
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.

He pissed her off last week cuz she invited him to the movies with some guy friends of hers, then she called him to ask him to pick up a guy on the way to the movies. He was smart and didn't go.
She has trouble written all over her.

Thats pretty much it. I was smart and didnt go and Ive been ignoring her. But apparently she still thinks theres some chance that I might still like her(believe me theres not) and last night she texted me asking if I wanted to go to the store with her. I txted back"whos this"(I dont have her number in my phone) and she txted her name back in all capital letters lolMacAvoy said:He pissed her off last week cuz she invited him to the movies with some guy friends of hers, then she called him to ask him to pick up a guy on the way to the movies.
