I'm a cancer and "my" aquarius broke up with me 2 months ago because "he lost connection".
I worked my but off last year (law school) and now I am a lawyer. So very proud of myself (for once). I couldn't go out much, couldn't plan exciting trips.. AND IT SUCKED BIG TIME. F*** I want to experience exciting things in my life. But I am very persistent and in my humble opinion no pain, no gain??_
Aqua-man: didn't study too much (is clever enough though), has quite wealthy parents who worked a lot but compensate with material things. He got tired of his boring job and mom and dad offered him a job at their company (business meetings, eating out, contacts with high placed people,..). Needless to say, he feels like he's on top of the world and really MADE it. Even though he refuses to admit this.
Of course life with me wasn't really thrilling??_ I wasn't too happy about my situation either, lacked confidence, but hey.. something's gotta give! I think it's part of growing up: knowing life's not always a party. Things are different now, I FEEL (and look) 100% different now, I have a wonderful job ATM, doing my thing, lots of hobbies (diving, running, ??_), going out, meeting new cool people —even professionally, etc.).
So ok, he got tired of me, but I'm afraid he's horribly underestimating me??_. Last year things got rocky also, almost broke up then, until he saw pictures of me partying, surrounded by too many interesting and.. interested guys. He told me he was mad because I didn't tell him about going out (he was in France on holiday, I was —again- studying and needed ONE NIGHT OUT). I figured he wouldn't be interested anyway, so I refused to tell him about it. His friend told me the pictures had hurt him. He never admitted this, but he did came back and "gave us a second chance"??_
Now he was never really pro facebook, guess who's posting non-stop about partying, drinking, hooking up with other girls, flaunting his new motorcycle and the fact that he's driving this bike for 3 hours at night (like wow.. you're so wild!), telling me about getting his masters (not happening), ??_ ? Right.
Got sick of it and "removed" facebook-account and Gtalk. Just don't wanna know about his BS and his showing off. He's not a REAL playboy. He looks good, but isn't the smooth talker.. A friend of his told me though he had slept with the niece of another friend of his. She has two kids, one disabled.. Now, I'm not surprised he slept with her. Brown eyed girl, lady in distress??_ And an easy catch. But nevertheless it's a bit of a slap in the face, since in his mind I'm the good girl and he's the bad boy??_
I'm not impressed with his behavior and his new life style , I'm just frustrated by the fact that he thinks the WORLD of himself and that he feels he can do SO much better than me, while he never had to work for most of the things in his life and never really appreciated MY efforts.. besides I could have broken him. I can be more of a player than he'll ever be, but no??_ instead I was loyal, understanding, giving him 200% freedom, got along with all his friend, parents, the lots??_
Someone familiar with this behavior? Is it a phase? Do they ever regret? I think he still has a lot of growing up to do and I hope he realizes one day, he dumped a great woman.
