A year ago, I moved with my boyfriend (at the time) to the city where he is doing his PhD. We broke up 4 months ago. A month ago, he asked me to be friends again and I agreed. I still have feelings for him but I know he doesn't want to get back together.
I'm in my last year of my undergraduate degree and I'm taking courses online for credit. I have a problem meeting deadlines and often get extensions. It's a weakness of mine and it makes me feel incompetent. This semester, I got a month-long extension on 2 courses, which embarrasses me.
I know my ex-boyfriend will ask me if I finished my courses on time. I feel that he'll lose respect for me if I tell him the truth, but I don't want to lie to him. It's causing me a lot of stress. What would you do?
Thanks for reading.How can I deal with probing questions from friend/ex-boyfriend?
i d tell him to get lostHow can I deal with probing questions from friend/ex-boyfriend?
Tell him that you have a lot going on and your stressed. Don't be embarrassed, many people don't even make it to your position! Congrats :)
Just say the truth. You are still working on them. Just say you have extensions.
In the end don't worry about it. Friends make you feel better not worse.
First of all. hes your ex-boyfriend, not your Husband. It's none of his business. Appreciate his concern but don't care. He should like you for who you are and understand not everyone is perfect. Cliche, I know, but true.
Don't fret! :)
There's so much wrong with this on so many levels. First off, you are creating the stress in yourself, no one else is. Telling the truth shouldn't be stressful, even if it is none of his business.
Attempting to be ';friends'; with an ex, especially one you still have feelings for is self-destructive.
You cause yourself to be late, no one else does (it seems), therefore making you incompetent. That is not just a feeling, but an actual FACT, as you aren't doing your share in the matter, and have offered no reason why, except the excuse that, you ';have a problem';. Perhaps it's time for you to do a personal inventory, or seek some professional help as you seem to be headed down an emotionally unstable road in your life.
hahahha. i still need to make up two midterms from first semester, and my boyfriend gets a kick out of it.
he shouldn't care. don't lie. or you can half lie. you can be like yeah they gave me a month long extension for two classes but i dont really need it. or somthing. goodluck
