Would a guy like this ever change?

Ok, I just recently broke up with my ex after 8 years, he's 27 yo and the scenario is:

1. He's a mommy's boy - He call's his mother every night at 8pm on the dot, he always calls her to ask her about her opinion about any major financial decisions in his life, he lies to her about me eg. we went on a trip and he told her that he was on a business trip.

2. He was physically abusive to me when I lived with him, and when I moved out he damaged my personal possessions eg. keyed my car, dinted appliances in my apartment.

3. He is a compulsive liar, he lies to me and his mother all the time, so that he wouldn't have to confront us about something that he knows that would upset us.

4. He cheated on me while I was away overseas and lied about that as well, he told me that the girl that was txting him was stalking him.

Let me be the first to say:
Congrats. to you on getting rid of a guy like this.

Many women have a hard time leaving a guy like this and I'm sure its still hard for you. You've done the right thing for yourself. Him being abusive did a lot of damaged to you but you know can heal as long as you don't go back to him. I sense there is still a part that wants him back and if ths wasn't true then you wouldn't have asked this question....

He's not a good guy and you see that. Anybody can make a change and most go right back to who they really are. You need to look at your future. Do you want to be abused or happy ? If you choose happy then you know which direction to head.

I wish you the best of luck :)

The only time you can change a man is when he is in diapers!!! LOSE HIM, he's not worth your time, you'll find someone WAY better who will treat you like you deserve!!

No, a guy like that will not change. Get out of that situation as fast as you can and don't look back. Read what you have written - no woman deserves to be treated that way.

You need to jump into some hobbies and activities to keep yourself busy so you don't spend time hoping he could change. Do something positive for yourself - go to the gym, take a fun art class.

In the end, you will be happy you kicked this fella to the curb.


?
no..


Come on.. you know the answer to this...

and no matter what we say, you're going to do what you're going to do.

Good luck

omg. dont give this fool another chance. he's had way too many. 1 was bad enough...

Good job for finally breaking up with a loser like that. obviously he is never going to change. Now you are available to find someone who wont put his hands on you and respect you and your stuff. congrats on being single and dont second guess your decision. once a cheater always a cheater, and a liar and mamma's boy.

Sounds way deeper than just changing. Like he has mental issues that he needs to address. Plus men don't change very easily anyways, but this is something more. Leaving the toliet seat up is something you'd want to change in a man. All that you mentioned is way more. Good luck!

YOU CANT BE SERIOUSLY THINKING YOU CAN CHANGE THIS NUT CASE.....GET FAR FAR AWAY AND FAST...DANGER AHEAD !


Stephen
No, almost everything you listed is things about him as a person.. People dont change, only behavior, and the only behavior there changable is the whole keying the car, etc, etc......everything is just defining who he is as a person, and that's one you should stay far away from.

No never NEVER! NEVER!!!

I think you already know the answer and just want validition. If that is what you are looking for - then look no further - you have it. The hardest thing to do it leave a relationship, if you are out, you would be a fool to return to it and relived the breakup again.


journeysmom
No, he will never change and you need to stay away from someone like this. Go find a nice guy, they are out there.

No. Never.

no, and i don't understand how u could stay with a guy like that for 8 years, u should have ran away from the very begining.


sweetpea
Major red flags here. He has some serious issues. Can he change? Question is does he thing anything with his behavior is wrong? I don't think so. I am glad you broke up with him. I wouldn't look back if i were you. Don't worry if he changes or not. Worry for the next girl who decides to get involved with him .

Probably not, and the chance of him getting worst is very high.....

It is extremely doubtful if he would ever change. You deserve better than that. I hope you value yourself enough to realize that and move on.

He probably wont ever change and these are excellent reasons for you to move on and forget him. Being with him is a completely pointless idea.


Jenny
PHYSICALLY ABUSIVE! stop right there. ooh liar too... and cheating??? There is no excuse for physical abuse no matter what though, the other three things don't help. Yes, you deserve better, you did the right thing, good for you.


Bethany
Get this guy out of your life and never, never, never get involved with him or anyone like him again as long as you live.


T
Sounds like he will never change, you did the right thing.......stay away from him.......especially if he was abusive to you.

Honestly...probably not. However I wish you luck in the future in finding someone better suited for you!

he will never change, and that's quite a large list of bad qualities! run, run, run far away and never turn back.


neo4116
While he might be able to change some things about himself I really doubt he could become the person that you deserve. 8 years is enough for you to know what kind of a future you would have with this guy.
For me the issue that he was abusive towards you and your possessions, is not negotiable. This person sounds very dangerous.
Be happy, find someone who will give you the love and respect that you want and need.

okay: GIRL HE CHEATED U BEAT U N RECKED SOME OF UR STUFF. HE LIES. NO HONEY, LOW LIFES NEVER CHANGE EASILY. dont trust a man who is like that, not worth a single tear of your pain chica, jus tryn to help out wit my opinion, stay up! 1


idbangrobertplant
he doesnt sound like someone I would be involved with. Hes not good enough for you, and he wont change no matter how much he pleads with you that he will. He needs help, but you shouldnt have to put up with him. Move on with your life and find someone who will take care of you and treat you right.

Haven't you answered your own question???
If you left before, think about leaving again. What makes you want to stay???Is that worth having your posessions ruined?? your body bruised??? being lied to???
GOOD LUCK. It's not leaving that is so hard, its staying away!!!


soccerpink06
HELL NO!!!!!!
A man like that never changes...GET AWAY FROM HIM....if you still love him, you should get another man that treats you right and loves you a lot!He doesn't deserve your love!I meen come on...he cheated on you, he is a liar, HE PHYSICALLY ABUSED YOU!Get what you deserve!Love your self a little...you should have broke up with him a LONG time ago...8YEARS!Don't give him another chance...he allready had TOO many....
GOOD LUCK!=)
