Resolved Question: Is There Anyone Out There that can Help me Understand Ex-Girlfriend??? So tired of living in a Lie...?
Hello everybody! This is going to be a pretty long story so please bear with it! I will give good ratings for anyone that gives me an honest opinion Basically I need help understanding my ex-girlfriend because back about 2 months ago she broke up with me because she said that she fell out of love with me. Although this happened she still sometimes said that she is in love with me and does love me. That's not the worst part though because I introduced her to one of my ex-friends who was having problems with his girlfriend because she was still adjusting to college. My ex-friend and my ex-girlfriend then started hanging out with each other a lot including going out to dinner and him coming over at night to her dorm. Well after a few days of this, my ex-girlfriend spent the night at his apartment and I went over there despite knowing it was wrong but my gut instinct told me I should which I don't know if should feel bad about it? Before that she also told me that they kissed each other and they weren't drunk but at the same time she said the first thing she thought about was that his lips weren't my lips and that it was a quick kiss. It still devastated me because the worst part is that while she was crying and admitted it, I spent the night with her because I'm still in love with her and cuddled up next to her holding her tight. After that happened, she said she was done with him and that nothing was going to happen between them because she doesn't have a crush on him anymore. She also promised to me that she was done with him and wanted to work on our relationship. However, a few weeks later I found out that they were sending texts to each other and that he would use phrases like "I love ya" and my ex-girlfriend would say "laterz love" or "muah" when ending conversations with him. He would still also ask my ex-girlfriend if she wanted to spend the night and wanted to hang out when he dropped his girlfriend off back on campus. Also, it seemed from their text messages that both of them were going I told my ex-girlfriend that I looked through her texts because I felt horrible about it afterwards but she yelled at me that I violated her privacy and that I had no right to which I know I didn't and I promised her I would never do it again. She told me that she didn't want to be confrontational with my ex-friend and that she didn't want to call him out on things and that her strategy was to ignore him and refuse his offers. However, 2 days ago I did the stupidest thing again and went through her cell phone again when she was in the shower and once again he asked her but this time she said that would be fun and the word affair was thrown in somewhere by my ex-friend in one of the messages. When I confronted my ex about this and asked if she texted him lately, all she said that he asked her to go to the movies which was in the text but not about spending the night. She still doesn't know that I snooped around again because my intuition told me and I feel like I'm selling my principles and I don't want to confront her about it. Please help because I'm so tired about being confused... My ex-girlfriend is sad to and she asked for some space because she said that she didn't have the time or effort for a relationship but I'm afraid if I do my ex-friend will try to steal her away again? I'm just so tired being dragged along also. I cry to myself everyday because I'm still in love with her and can see myself with her in the future. She still wears my clothes and wears my promise ring on her left-ring finger still and it hurts when I see that.I also bring her flowers once in awhile and she is always happy when I give them to her. Is there please anyone out there that can interpret this for me and give me some advice please:-( I need to protect myself to but I want to stay with her... -Broken Heart read more...

Thinking about moving to a new area? Looking to rent an apartment? It the answer is yes then there are several things that you need to consider. Obviously the first would be what state and what city. Landlords, security, neighborhoods, schools and recreation areas are other important factors that you need to consider when choosing an apartment.
If you take all of these factors into consideration and do a little research before you make your decision, you can make your moving experience a pleasant one.

When you are looking at landlords, look for ones that have been in business the longest without any major incidents. Finding a good landlord may prove to be tough at first but it is well worth your time and effort. You also might want to research a little on current laws that are applicable to tenants and landlords. That way you fully understand your obligations for each.

One thing to keep in mind about moving is the security of the area you are moving into. Is it known for drugs or gangs? How far is the nearest police station and fire department? These are all considerations to keep in mind. You will not have piece of mind if you live in an area that you do not feel safe in.

Neighborhoods are good to explore as well. You need to decide if you want to live in a place that is very expensive or a place that may be not be as organized as a neighborhood. Other things to remember are does the neighborhood have a local pool or maybe a fitness center. Whatever your hobbies or interests are can play into this as well. If you like to golf or play tennis, you might want an apartment that has these available or are near by.

If you have children or plan to have children, you will want to know the surrounding schools. You can research these schools and find out the student to teacher ratio. You can find out the SAT scores for the districts or the average amount the school spends per child each year. Knowing the population of the school is also beneficial because it will tell you what kind of interaction your child will have with the teacher.

And the last thing you might want to look into before moving is the recreational benefits of the area. Things that will effect your decision on this would be if you like going to amusement or water parks. Do you like to fish or play baseball or softball? Maybe you like regular parks that you can just sit down in and relax to watch birds or admire the trees in the park.

Overall these are just some easy to find and very important things to consider when relocating to a new area. The internet is a very resourceful place as well as the local court house to find out most of this kind of information. The bottom line is the more effort you put into looking for your new place, the better off you will be n the long run. The only worse thing then moving is moving again after only a couple of months.
