Am i over reacting ?

I have been in a long distance relationship for a while. We see each other when we can but due to circumstances at present it can't be more. Weve never had any problem's, anyway he sent a text message last week that was rather odd. I didnt get it at first. Then he said that wasnt meant for me i'm just helping some woman out who used to work for his firm and has now moved abroad. Now to me the message was flirty he on other hand says im over reacting just because he helping out an old work colleague in getting jealous, Either way ive not spoken to him for a week. For me the trust has now gone but a part of me thinks maybe i am over reacting ??

Don’t know if I’d toss away my trust based on one text but I’d certainly be monitoring the situation moving forward.

Hmm hard to say. Especially with these on-line relationships. They're a bit of a crap shoot. Trust wouldn't be breeched for me due to one seemingly flirty text. Although I would be on alert after.
I would need to know what the text said before giving a solid opinion. Not asking for you to say if you would rather not.

@Magenta he was basically complimenting her and said he can see why she gets so much attention in italy ( where she has moved too ). What am i meant to take from that?

If I would have gotten that message. I would've thought just what your gut told you.

Then I would have called and flew off the handle.

You're not over reacting in my book. but I'm thinking the worst

Ok lets turn this around...

What if you had been sending messages to a work colleague! What would his reaction be...

Long distance hardly ever works unfortunately! The communication normally breaks down after a while.

You can do better gal! 💜
Depends on what it was. Was it flirty or is that your interpretation. It's easy to assume someone's tone and intent wrong via text.

I'd say follow your heart and your gut instinct because they're always right and if it don't feel right then maybe you should not be in or doing it then if it don't feel like you belongs and probably you don't belong

I don’t think you’re overreacting
Even though y’all aren’t seeing each other as much as before, did y’all communicate often?

@Purplemoon and you haven’t spoke to him in a week yet it sounds like he hasn’t made any effort…
Purplemoon · 36-40, F
@Kiesel oh he has tried. But im ignoring him as im obviously hurt.
Kiesel · 56-60, M
@Purplemoon rightfully so imo
I'm just glad I am too old to have to put up with nonsensical 'relationship' head games anymore.
Wolffy · 56-60, M
I mean in all honesty normally we follow our guts and our hearts and they keep us out of trouble don't they

Has he made several attempts during the week to talk with you in the past week? If not it's time to bail because he has
Kenworth4954 · 56-60, M
@Purplemoon lol yeah, I'm no relationship expert but as an experienced man you might want to cut this one loose. Finding the right one is extremely challenging. Finding the wrong one is too easy. Again don't make any decisions from my opinion but he understands the sensitivity of this issue and he wants to argue it? That's not good my friend.

@Kenworth4954 Thank you for the advice. X

@Purplemoon take it with a grain of salt for now please.

Trust your gut.

Online (long distance) relationships rarely work out. 🤷🏻‍♀
OverTheHill · 61-69, M
Nope, he's playing the field. You're part of the game. Watch yourself.
Who knows.. he might be involved in other stuff

@Purplemoon So what do you think of Henry Cavill & would you do him
Lilnonames · F
Who was the message supposed to go too?
Purplemoon · 36-40, F
@Lilnonames an ex work colleague ( woman ) who was asking him for help with something

@Purplemoon I know how you feel. The strongest connections I’ve made with women sadly end up being long distance. So I stopped trying for a while now, just focused on other things at the moment.
Purplemoon · 36-40, F
@Moneyonmymind I knew from start it maybe not a great idea. But i did it anyway. Lesson learnt i guess.
Moneyonmymind · 31-35, M
@Purplemoon you deserve better.
