Ex-GF has a new BF but she still wants to contact me
Post Body

Me and my ex gf were in a relationship for about an year. We broke up and she went to a different college. She calls me whenever she has panic attacks or whenever she feels vulnerable because she said doesn't have anyone close there and I'm the only one who could understand and listen to her even though we broke up. So I used to pick up the call and we used to talk and listen to her problems and all thinking she might not have someone there to listen to her.

For the past 4-5 months she used to call me and we talk about everything and all. But yesterday she called me late at night saying that she was feeling sad, having panic attacks and she was crying. So I comforted her and we talked till suddenly she gets my name wrong. Obviously I felt very hurt because out of that 1 year relationship and the bond we still have, I really didn't expect her to forget my name and mistake it. I didn't point that out but instead I asked her whether she has someone there? At first she said no, college romance are shit blah blah.... But I know her very well and told her be honest, and then she said yeah she's in a relationship.

I felt used because she knows very well that the moment she says something like this I'm out and I won't comfort her ever again, and after hearing that she has a bf there and still she used to call me to comfort her telling me that she has no one. The level shamelessness from her! I called her out immediately saying, listen, you have a bf there which u didn't tell me about and u still call me saying u don't have anyone there, so clearly you were using me and even disrespecting me, you were taking my kindness for granted and that's why you can't leave me still.

She said that she didn't tell me because she thought I'll get hurt, I'm like wtf so am I supposed to be happy now that you are using me even though you have someone and still keeping a secret about it? I didn't argue anymore instead I just closed that chapter completely. She was the biggest mistake of my life.

So what do u guys think? Was I used or I'm just overreacting? I won't contact her ever again but again I feel very bad and disrespected now so wanted to hear your opinions.

Thanks.

You were definitely used. Your ex reached out to you for emotional support while hiding the fact that she had a boyfriend, which is manipulative and disrespectful. She took advantage of your kindness, relying on you while not being honest. It’s clear she didn’t value you the way you thought. Cutting her off was the right move she disrespected your boundaries and used you when it suited her. You deserve better.
