Ok I have a friend, let's call her Moriah, and she's dating our friend Alex. Well they first got together about three years ago, and they were together for a little over a year and then she broke up with him on V-day. Sucks yeah? Anyways she went out with two other guys then came crawling back to Alex begging him to take her back. I told him not to take her back because of all the stress she out him through with her fake telephonaphobia, fear of phones, her trying to cut herself with broken tic-tac boxes and all this other stuff. He took her back and then now thay've been together for just under a year and she's going around saying she's been with him for two years now. Before I start ranting at her about it, is it two years of relationship if you go out for a year, break up, date others, then get back together for about a year?

The appropriate word for this is jealousy. It can be used in different ways, like " You're a jealous whore " and/or" You're so green with envy/jealousy ". Find your own unique way to use it!

Well, it sounds like you're jealous of her because you have a crush on Alex

..it doesnt always have to be about being jealous. she could just be protecting him.


and personally, i dont think it'd 2 years. breaking up with someone and staying apart does not count as "dating."

Gak... no way... he's almost like my brother... sides I'm happy in my relationship! it just annoys be because Alex is a really good friend and I know he can do much better...

Oh, ok then
I totally understand you. I love my brother to death, and I used to hate his ex-gf.

I can see how this would annoy you if you really care about him. I would really call it jealousy at all. I, myself wouldn't consider they've been together for two years since she did break up with him and went out with others. Although I think its up to her and Alex if they want to say its been two years or not. She should talk to him about it first before going around telling the world they've been together for two years. Because in Alex's eyes he could think they've only been together for under a year since she did hurt him the first go around and that time in my own head sounds like it went down the tubes.

i don't think it counts, especially since she got with other guys before going back to alex. does alex really like this girl? or is it just because she wants to be with him again?

Honestly? I really hope he is only with her to make her happy but, yeah that's a bit mean. I think he'd be happier without her but that's not really my choice and I've been trying to make him realize that...
