What do I do with an Ex who uses me?

Answers:

Dear NS,

First of all: where does Mark live, and what is his last name?

Because the exact same thing happened to me, and the guy's name was Mark.

So here goes the advice:

He's Got a Lot of Girls Like You

The signs that he has totally been using you have been there from the beginning. Not coming to your house unless no one was around, the fact that he wanted to sleep with you but not commit to a relationship says that he has a lot of girls around just like you. The fact that he constantly talks about other girls means get rid of him.

Rick

He's not taking advantage of her sexuality – he's taking advantage of her desire for a friendship.

This guy is just in it for the sex, you are giving him control by letting him take advantage of your sexuality. He is a pig and needs to be taught a lesson.

Pretend You're a Virgin

Although he was your first for a lot of sexual endeavors, and you can't erase that, you can pretend.

The fact that he kept you close after you broke up says that he knows that he has control and he can use you as a line of support when no one else will give him what he wants. Because he knows that you will give him that.

He's Not Being Pressured

He says that you are putting pressure on him!!!! Holy cow, girl, he's not the one writing to us, so obviously he's not the one being pressured to do things that he really doesn't want to do.

This guy may have been there for you through the roughest of times, and seemed like the sweetest of guys, maybe even the one; but you need to face the reality of the situation. Don't sleep with him because he wants you to. He's not willing to take your feelings on this subject into account, so why should you take his into account.

Don't worry about what he will do if you find someone new. He's gone and found someone new a million times, he's used them like he has used you, and dropped them like he dropped you.

You Can't Be Friends Unless You're Strong Enough

You can't be friends with him until you are sure that you are strong enough to say "No" to him and you are sure that you are strong enough to say "I'm not going to be your leaning stick anymore." And even then you may have started to see what kind of a jerk this guy is. That is when you will see that he was never good for you and he was just using you.

Bailey He Wants You To Believe You Can Keep Him By Sleeping with Him

 

Listen to me girl; you say that the only way you can keep him is if you give into his sexual desires? Let me ask you something and give yourself a true and honest answer – Did you keep him when you gave in last time? He tells you that he still cares about you, to hit you right in the heart. He knows that you are hurting and he knows what to say to make you do what he wants you to do. If he cared he would be in a reltionship with you.

The reason he gets jealous about other guys is because he wants you to be there when he says "Be there", and if you are involved with someone else you won't be. You know as well as I do that this guy is playing you. You are falling into his trap every time, and when he finds his next victim he'll drop you again and again and again.

Don't Answer the Door

Honey, there are a million guys out there that are looking for a sweet girl who really cares about them. You know as well as I do that you should drop him. Don't take his phone calls. Don't take his pages. Don't answer the door when he shows up at your place. Don't talk to him when you see him at a bar or a party.

You have to let him know that he doesn't have control over you anymore and that you're not a backburner gal.
