A 9-year relationship is no short-term fling. It’s safe to say by that stage, both parties generally know each other quite well. They’ve gone through their fair share of ups and downs. And for many, marriage might be the next step. That’s exactly where one woman thought her relationship was heading…
So when her boyfriend started showering her with gifts and planned a romantic dinner, she was ready for a ring to appear. What she wasn’t expecting was to be dumped, insulted, and kicked out of the apartment they shared together. Now, months later, her ex has crept out of the woodwork, sending her flowers and asking to meet. The woman is seeking advice. Bored Panda reached out to relationship expert Professor Amber Vennum from Kansas State University, as well as psychotherapist, speaker and author Anna Mathur to hear their views on navigating relationships with exes.
