Operation: Get my girlfriend back
|
About three years ago I was near the end of a long relationship. I was dating an opera singer and me & her had been together 6 years. We fought regularly, but had spent alot of time learning about each other so we were able to always work out problems.
We started thinking about getting married and then oops, she got pregnant. I was there for her all throughout the pregnancy although she began to spend more & more time with a friend of mine, shopping with him for towels, cribs, etc. The day my son was born I didn't even know where she was. I got to the hospital and this friend of mine was there with her.
The next thing I know, she moves out with this friend of mine. At first I did not want her back, but I had to take responsiblity for what had gone wrong. I was a jealous man and didn't listen to her when she needed someone to talk to, see this guy was there for her instead.
So I decided I wanted her back and so then I started practicing an entirely new & practical approach to our relationship in order to get my girlfriend back. I began to listen when I got the chance. Listen to her and "get into" what she was talking about. This is instead of the usual "go in one ear and out the other" while thinking things like "Is she going to spend time with me now?" or "I wonder how long she is going to talk to me." Before I knew it we were back together and we BOTH kicked the dude out in the street. He lost all his privileges and me & her laugh about the fact she was with him to this day.
