Help


My girlfriend broke up with me over a year and half but now our break up was really bad.  I blame my self for some of the problems we had before she broke up with me. But now after one and half years I tried contacting her by calling and she refused to answer.  Instead she sms me, asking if I miss her or do I wanted to play with her. I replied and said I do miss her, but I am not playing with her. She said she will never forgive or forget what I did to her. She was using words like this ( you fucked me up, you should fuck of, don't miss me and don't call me). What should I do, I want to make things right and for her to forgive me for what I did to her.



Confused


Wow. What impresses me about your question is your determination to make things right for her. This tells me what a good person you are. You truly deserve a chance to put things right.

The problem is this girl is really furious with you. I always say that anger is never the primary emotion. Anger conceals the more vulnerable emotions such as fear, hurt, sadness.

At first I had thought that she asked if you miss her because a part of her was hoping that you actually do miss her. But then the way she blasted you when you admitted to missing her, made me wonder if she only asked the question in order to bait you--to set you up for a beating.

When she beat you, she made reference to your having played with her. I’m assuming you know what she means.

If you want to make this right, then you need to take responsibility for what you did to her. To do this you would say: I know how much I wronged you by doing (fill in what you did). You can’t believe how much I want to make this right for you. I’m not asking you to forgive me or trust me. I just want the chance to be able to talk with you and have you tell me everything that I did wrong. Even though I can’t take back what I did, the least I can do is listen and hopefully help you heal from the pain I gave you. And I know you don’t owe me anything, but I would appreciate your feedback which will actually help me become a better person.  

When you do this you have to be entirely genuine. The words have to come from your heart. If she senses that you’re only trying to worm your way back into a relationship with her, your communication will backfire.

If you are persistent and don’t give up, there’s a good chance that it will pay off. She will see that you are truly devoted and not out to play her.

If she doesn’t accept your offer, there’s nothing more you can do except learn from your mistakes and never play another woman again.

Join Me Today at 1pm EST on Blog Talk Radio

If the days ahead have you filled with dread, fear no more!

In this Ask Dr. Love radio show, I explain why millions of people end up broken rather than happy hearted during the holidays. The reason: we unconsciously return home hoping to finally heal our Old Scars and achieve our Happy Endings. When we don’t achieve our Happy Ending, our hearts are broken.

It is precisely by being conscious of your Old Scars that you can free yourself to not repeat the old behavior patterns that re-injure rather than heal you.
It is this same consciousness that will enable you to head-off and even heal longstanding family feuds. As you become the instrument that heals the feuds, you will finally achieve the Happy Ending that your heart has been craving.

Discover how to bring consciousness and reason into your holiday season, using effective and constructive communications that heal yourself and your family!
Tune in to hear my proven plan for turning your family hollerdays into truly joyous holidays and beyond!


This show features special guest Rick Tamlyn, Master Certified Coach and developer of The Bigger Game, a tool that inspires executives, leaders and everyday people to get out of their comfort zones and invent the life they want.

How to Spot a Player BEFORE You Get Played

Are you putting your body, mind, heart and soul at risk by having sex too soon?

In this edition of Ask Dr. Love radio, I’m going to discuss why the opinions of the dating coach who appeared on my show last week are dead wrong and dangerous for you to follow!

If you listened last week, you heard him say that if a woman wants to form a relationship, she  must  put the erotic cart before the emotional horse--and have sex from the starting gate.   

What this coach doesn't know is that there is science behind why premature sex can be dangerous, especially for women, and counterproductive to the formation of a relationship.

For one thing, sex too early in the game puts a woman at risk of becoming the target of a player who has no interest in forming a relationship...or falling for someone who just isn’t a good fit.

Second, and contrary to what this coach said, having sex too soon can actually drive a man away.

Tune in to find out why practicing self-love by setting boundaries for yourself in the key to forming a solid relationship. It is precisely during this time of waiting and watching that a woman is supposed to assess her prospective partner’s capacity to form a relationship and evaluate whether compatibility exists.

What Marriage Counselors Want You To Know About Real Love

Great article on Psychology Today: "you have to get curious with your partner about why they're doing whatever they're doing. Ask—then stop talking and stop judging, and become a safe person to confide in. The sense of judgment and criticism is what can make our partners feel like such a failure that they seek another avenue to express their passion."
