He Thinks The Magic Of His First Date With His Girlfriend Is Gone Because He Found Out She Slept With Another Guy One Week Later
Many dating experts advise people not to put all of their hope into one person just because they had an amazing first date. They usually suggest that you keep a roster of dates until you and that person are able to lock things down.
However, that can be extremely difficult, especially when your first date with that person was more than amazing.
One man has been extremely upset for a while after finding out that his girlfriend slept with someone else after their amazing first date.
He and his girlfriend have been dating for a year, and they’ve had amazing chemistry since the day they met.
“Our first date was amazing as we sat down and started talking like we had known each other our entire lives,” he explained.
“Both of us expressed to each other that it was the best date we had ever been on, and she even expressed that it was the happiest night [of her life] since moving to the city we live in.”
After that amazing first date, he was sure that his girlfriend was the one, and they entered a committed relationship not long after.
However, about five months ago, he found out that his girlfriend ended up sleeping with an ex the weekend after their first date while he was out of town for work.
While they weren’t exclusive, they did have a second date planned and even planned to speak on the phone to finalize everything.

“Although objectively we weren’t exclusive when I found out, I was taking it back and hurt, after being under the impression that she didn’t do things like that after expressing how much of an amazing time she had on our first date,” he admitted.
He’s since forgiven his girlfriend for what she did, but ever since learning that piece of information, he now feels upset when he thinks about their first date.
Recently, his girlfriend sent him a picture of her wearing the outfit she wore the night of their first date, as it popped up as a year-old memory in her phone.
He could tell his girlfriend was trying to remember that night in a positive light, but he couldn’t respond to the message.
She later confronted him and asked why he wasn’t saying anything and if he didn’t like the picture.
He told her that the picture made him sad as he felt the “magic” of their first date was gone ever since he found out she hooked up with someone else shortly afterward.
His girlfriend was extremely upset with his response and claimed that his words proved he still hasn’t forgiven her and will never get over that incident.
“I tried explaining that I do forgive her, but I just don’t want to overly romanticize our first date anymore,” he added.
Do you think he was too harsh with his girlfriend, or was he right to be upset?
