AIO? I stopped dating this girl because I think she tried to control who I can meet.
I’ve been dating a girl for about 3–4 weeks, and here’s what happened. I have a friend group (3–4 people at most) that I’ve been playing tennis with and going to the gym with once or twice a week. We’re also part of a bigger volleyball group from my past job.
Here’s what happened: we went to volleyball practice, and afterward this friend group asked if I wanted to go to the gym since we hadn’t gone in about a month. I said yes because I had nothing else to do, and I told the girl I was dating that we were going to the gym.
Her response was, “Is there a girl with us?” There is a girl in this friend group, but I don’t want anything from her, and she doesn’t want anything from me either. There has never been anything between us. She also has a boyfriend. I explained all of this to the girl I was dating, but she became furious. She said she thinks I’m secretly in love with the other girl, and she also believes that men and women can’t just be friends. She also said that “a guy she’s dating shouldn’t be going to the gym with other girls.” I would agree if it were just the two of us, but it wasn’t. I was always with multiple people, never alone with her.
We got into a big fight. I told her I didn’t want to be controlled like that and that I don’t think going to the gym with a group counts as cheating or anything. After about two days of arguing back and forth, she called me a manipulator, a rat, and other things. So I told her that even though I like her, I don’t think we should be together.
It still hurts even after two months because I really liked her, and I’ve never had a girlfriend before at 24, so maybe I messed up my only chance.
