Hello myLotter If you have a boyfriend and he's got married with other girl suddenly will you still get happy because he is happy with his marriage? I will say Big NO... Even I always try to think that I must be happy if someone I love is happy with other girl. But I still can do that. This story is really happen to my friend, she planned to get married with his boyfriend after 9 years relationship. But 1 month before her married, a girl called her and told her that she was pregnant with her boyfriend. My friend canceled all the plan, and broke up with the bf. 2 weeks after that he was married with the pregnant girl. My friend was happy, even she didn't married him, at least she know it before she's got married. Share your story please... Thank you

That is sad but at least she found him out before she did marry him. I mean if he got another girl pregant he was cheating on her. Like my ex.husband did to me. I am glad it didn't last any longer then it did and I found out the he was cheating on me instead of years down the road but it still hurts for a good while.

That was a sad story. I think if my boyfriend will get marry with another girl i will be very sad. It will be too hard for me to move on because of the years we have been together and for those happy memories. Your friend's case is really hard and if i were her i will not know what to do. I hope that won't happen to me.

I am so glad your friend found out about what her boyfriend was like before they got married. It must be really hard for her. He was no good for her, and he will probably cheat on this one as well. I wouldnt be happy i dont think. It takes a long time to get over someone you have been with a long time. And it will be hard for her if she sees them around. I hope she moves forward, and not dwell on the past. Best wishes, little angel

Hello kayrod She was, but now she is well. She ignore her ex, her ex still try to make her believe that he will divorce and ask her to marry him. He is a mad person I guess. God bless you

well, it depends on person to person.....sometimes you feel that it is good that whom you love, she/he is happy with the person with whom she wanted to spend her life, and sometimes you just feel like anything.sometimes u even feel like grabbing the caller of the person to ask, why you did it....why with me???what was my fault???? and sometimes you think, it happened with me so that I can learn the importance of love and dont lose the real love when it comes to me. Everyone of us is a human being and not god.....so it is really fine to think in either ways....but to harm ur love or her beloved is not good......coz then it transforms into lust , not love

This happened recently to my friend too. I felt sad and depressed even if it wasn't me. I don't think my friend can be happy for the guy, or the preggy girl.

hi! im a new lot user, i got your topic very interesting maybe because we almost have the same story with your friend. Honestly im not happy the first time i heard that my boyfriend will get married to this girl because she's pregnant, and it turns out somehow that story is not true...but right now i already accept the fact that he is happy because it shows on his face the last time we saw and talked with each other..:)

i think you should be happy for him primarily because if you love a person ,you would like his happiness and secondly, you should be glad because if it happens when you were married ,your in deep ...it which you cannot undo.so, you have to look at it in a positive perspective to your advantage. would you like to check this site and tell me what you think about it and the site itself. http://www.squidoo.com/ondepression thanks.

That is a sad story but at least she knew a head of time. I do not think that I would be happy for him. Nine years is a long time and I would feel that it was wasted because he was a cheat.

Initially it would be difficult for me to take this issue but then after that i would be happy for him as he will be happy with his marriage and what matters is his happiness...So i would be happy for him but i can never forget that person and would always pray for him....

I don't think that I would be able to be very happy. Then again, I wouldn't have a lover that would be so quick to be with someone else, and especially not one that cheated on me... as far as I'm concerned, Why would you eat a burger when you're out when you have steak and potatoes at home! My man doesn't wander too far, he knows where to be to get it right.

Hello FSCAries LOL, I will prefer eat steak and potatoes at home than hamburger. But sometimes man think that have 2 or more lover is common thing. God bless you.

Well I say yes. Achieving happiness is a personal task. You have a choice, you can choose to be happy if you want. As for me, being optimistic, I always look at the possibility of a "blessing in disguise". Because I know that when God took away something for me, He prepare something special to replace it and its always the best for me.

I think there's two ways to look at it. Personally, i've had two ex's that have gotten married - i've loved one of them. Whilst initially i wasn't all that pleased, with time, i've actually become really happy for both. Why? Because sometimes, to love someone, seeing them happy and knowing that some other guy is going to treat them well, it's something that you know is right.

What hurt's the most is to see the one you love sticking by your side even though he loves somebody else... huhuhuhu
