    Yeah it happens all the time, some people even like to overlap their relationships.

    Common would be a better word for it. I have been on the receiving end of this. It's not nice to be on the receiving end, but sh!t happens sometimes.

    The person could have deep issues or it could just be a stage that they are going through or something. They could be looking for a particular type of relationship or person and will just keep on moving on until they find it. It's not the best way to find a decent relationship.

    My most recent ex jumped from one relationship to another, sometimes the relationships would overlap (he was cheating) and when I looked into his relationship history, I noticed that he had a lot of very short term relationships and no long term ones that I knew about.

    My ex was a dreamer and was more into the idea of the romance in a relationship rather than the realities of a relationship. As soon as the romance fades and the reality sets in, he moves on. That's fine, but I am the opposite. I am more interested in the realities than the romance. I wish him all the best and hope he finds what he is looking for, I highly doubt that he will though. Poor guy.

    Don't worry about it too much, this person wasn't for you. They are either frantically looking for a relationship that matches their unrealistic ideals of what a relationship should be or perhaps you just weren't the one for them? Either way, they are not worth wasting any more time thinking about them. Take some time out for yourself, listen to some angry "you dumped me you arsehole/b!tch" music and then get out and be sociable. You will forget about this person in no time.

    Thank you for your advice.. I'm really sorry about what happened with your guy.. I have been reading a bit about co dependency and the irony is that this girl is a frequent yoga class attendee and worked in the self-help industry.. Somehow, I don't think I'll be attending the same seminars ..

    I completely agree. I was also on the receiving end of this phenomena and found out many of the same facts concerning my ex. She was also a dreamer in that same sense and only had one long-term relationship that was physically and verbally abusive. This was what I was talking about earlier about emotional maturity, where you can move from the idea of romance into the mechanics of functioning and healthy relationship. I don't think my ex ever had one before, even though I would like to think I could have been that. . . alas.

    It happens so often now that when people do things like that, then it kind of just tends to become the norm, but it isn't looked on in a good light. I agree with TakumiUsui..

    Ok... let's add this to the mix... If girl had 3 emotional affairs on her ex husband,,, became separated, meets a new guy gets dumped, sleeps with a new guy ( offering the former guys c...doms) and then moves onto the next guy.. How would you describe this behaviour?

    she's a ****!. Clearly no care for the former partners and shouldn't be trusted. I wasn't agreeing with the behavior, I was agreeing with the "Once you find them, never let them go" statement.. LOL. That person shouldn't be described as a woman because it is meant for a 'woman' to be caring and she sounds like she doesn't care in the slightest.. I hope there are no children involved in this because I cannot see them growing up to be honest and caring persons if they have a mother like that..

    Depends on the depth. If there's no depth, he/she's a player.

    If he/she gets in deep and and then cuts out, it shows they have the emotional maturity of a 14 year old and they never really grew up.

    Yes, that's the way to find your soulmate. But, once you find that person never let go.
