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?
"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
Ex Running Her Mouth...

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

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.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

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.
