Feeling Replaced At Work

I feel replaced by my best friend...?

I'm going through the exact same thing right now! I've talked to my best friend about it, too, and she said the same thing. She said she could never replace me. But I feel like she has. And she found a best friend at her new school and they hang out ALL the time and act as if they've been best friends forever and I don't get to see her that much anymore. So, trust me, I know how you feel. It really hurts. Really try talking to her more about it. Tell her that even if she says she hasn't replaced you it honestly feels like she has to you. Remind her about the promise. Tell her that you're not mad about it (you don't want her thinking that you're too possessive) but you're just really sad.

And if talking to her about it and trying to hang out and trying to talk to her a lot doesn't work and you still feel replaced, hang out with other friends a lot. Maybe she might start to feel the same way. But, if she doesn't, just continue being friends with her and go on with your life and your other friends. I know it's hard but I think that it's what you (and I :( ) have to do.

What should I do when I feel like I have been replaced?

Move on.It’s hard and it hurts but it’s the best thing to do. If you don’t move on and keep thinking about this person over and over, it’s not going to do anyone any good. Especially you! You need to be happy. If it’s been replaced by a best friend, go find new friends! If it’s being replaced by a crush/boyfriend/girlfriend/husband /wife then find someone else to daydream about.The same recently happened to me. I was replaced by someone and I was no longer the top priority to my BEST FRIEND and CRUSH. It was terrible. I was so sad. But then I figured that I should get up and find someone else instead of sitting on my ass and waiting for him to come back to me. So now I have a new best friend and a new crush (2 different people) both of which who are really nice. My best friend is and my crush are both amazing people and I’m actually really happy that the previous person decided to replace me. (Turned out he was really toxic)I’m not saying that this will happen over night by the way. It took me about 5 months to sort myself out.I hope everything works out for you <3

How do I overcome feeling of being replaced?

You can not just overcome it in a day or two. You have to go through it. Feel it because it won’t last forever. If you ever get a second thought that you’ve been replacing by someone then without any doubt you should move away, give that person space and if he/she comes back to you make them realize that they did you wrong. But the main thing is never ever lose your self respect. I am not sure who’s been replacing you, it depends on your relationship with them but if they are closest friend, then give them some time. Try to understand their situation too, don’t just think of leaving them by assuming only. May be they are going through some problems of their own. Are you sure you are being replaced? Make it clear then make a decision prioritizing your self respect first.

How do I get over feeling replaced?

well that happened to me, a lot of times actually.thing is people find new people that they like And forget about the ones that they have.Now those who are forgotten or replaced feel the worst in this case and are the only ones who suffer.It's part of your life, people will always replace you if they find a better person for the job that you were doing for them because people who replace their close ones aren't really deserving of you and the relationship they had was one sided only.Chuck it up, cry, scream, then eat ice-cream I guess, but ya cry a lot, do take your anger out just don't let the feeling of getting replaced die inside you as its ghost won't let you live. So yes, take it all out.You know getting replaced so many times makes you tough, you go numb and then finally a day comes when you don't care about the people who replaced you and that is the best feeling in the world, “the feeling of moving on and forgiving” and to reach that you just gotta stay strong and be patient.And yeah accept it, accept that you got replaced and then move on because honey you're gold, anyone who will get you would be lucky as hell. And someday those people will cry inside who dared to replace a masterpiece like you.

Feel replaced and hurt by ex dating a younger girl?

The older you get, the harder breakups become. I'm 23 myself and I ended a rather serious relationship a few months ago. Marriage definately crossed my mind. It sucks.

It's good that you appreciate yourself without being egotistical. It's also good that you still have affection for him. It shows your maturity. I'll tell you this, guys have to date girls. A lot of girls....throughout the course of their life. The normal guy seperates girls into 2 categories: One's they respect and one's they don't. They might say a girl belongs into the other category, but deep down they know who is who. Girls that are respected are the one's guys want to settle down with and marry, the others are just for fun.

I'd bet a lot on the fact that he doesn't really respect this girl as much as you/he thinks. 4 years is a big age gap when you're young. It's a seperate bracket, as far as maturity goes. My ex was 18 and I was 22 too. She was super intelligent and mature, but nonetheless, her age started to show eventually. Then, my respect for her started to decline.

She's probably a rebound girl. Someone he doesn't feel threatened by and someone who is really into him and fun. Not saying that you weren't, but younger girls can go nuts for older guys and guys love that attention. He's probably still in love with you and this is his way of coping with the loss.

I don't know why you guys broke up, but I'm sure it was for a good reason. You shouldn't take it so personally. I know it hurts but in a weird way, it shows that he still has deep feelings for you. He wants you (or someone like you to take his place). If he didn't care still, he'd be enjoying the time alone, "thank goodness I'm free to do whatever I want". I know it's backwards but that's just how people are.

I guess I can't say much else, but don't take it personally. I bet you're a great girl. You'll start to see this is just a fluke soon enough. Good luck and feel better!

I have a feeling that I'm replaceable and that every moment I can be replaced by people who I love. What should I do about that?

I am not into the candy-coated, suicide-prevention style pep talk here, as his is a very valid question, to anyone who has felt it, and I have definitely felt what you are feeling. So I will spare you the bit about not relying on the approval of others to validate your existance, because you asking this question shows me that you would not so easily just become completely self-preserving, it doesn’t work that way for carring individuals. We think too much. Like about feeling replacable, and some people never think about it. In fact, I am currently trying to not think about it, until I read your question. But that is what you do: just don’t think about it. That is all you CAN do. Until someone makes you feel special again some day. I am waiting too, so we can not think about it together. Because, if you feel that way it is only because you are thinking about it, and anyone would feel that way if they really thougt about it. Do you think your loved ones consider themselves completely necessary to the existance of others. Bottom line is that no matter who I have been in a relationship with, if I had died, they would not remain celibate. So I can think about it until I am stuck in a whole crying and making nobody feel better, or I can try to be someone that although replacable, tops them all, and is unforgetable. And keep in mind how this feels enough that you make sure your loved ones always know how important they are to you. Try to make them feel important. That is a great way to feel like you are irreplaceable. Listen to people and try to find ways to make them happy. Ways that show you really put alot of thought into it. When you go out of your way to make someone else happy, you can rest assured they value you in their lives. ( unless your kids have entitlement issues). No one else does that kinda stuff anymore. So Shine. Or distract yourself. I am combining the two. But we are here for a reason, if we hang in there, I guese we will find out.

Songs about being replaced by a friend?

false pretense by the red jumpsuit apparatus

I feel replaced in my ex-girlfriend's life. How do I accept it on move on?

When my girl friend broke up with me (she wanted to be with another guy), I was heart broken, as it was a shock for me. We were always happy together. I never asked her why or whom and I still don’t know.I wanted to move on, because I need to live. Its a war. When I try to motivate myself, on the other side my emotions try to sink me. So I understood its all about making the first side win, and how do I do it?I try to clear emotions from my thoughts and be logical. Whenever emotions try to bring me down, I think about these, after which I feel motivated.1. She would have found someone better (looks, job, character or anything) than me, and it would have been a tough decision for her as well. I should accept her decision.2. I have spent a lot of time with her, we were really happy. We had the best time. In short, I had an awesome life for an year. I should be happy about it and never regret.3. Fact, she doesn’t want to be with me anymore, I should accept it. This gives me the drive - why should I waste my time, I have a long life ahead.4. She was my best friend, I still respect her and I respect her decisions as well.
