Thanks for a great post, man! Gosh, it's so refreshing to hear from another male who's not fucking "trying to figure out how to treat a woman" or some shit, and prioritizes HIMSELF. This is where I'm at ATM: 1) biological clock is ticking (something you wouldn't know about); 2) infatuated with someone but realizing IT IS JUST AN ILLUSION and doing absolutely nothing to bring about a relationship. 3) things are WEIRD with me right now- I'm pulled apart by the desire for intimacy on the one hand, and being aware of the futility of trying to attain happiness by means of love (it's the other way around) on the other. Basically, whatever is going to make me happy is going to happen without the least bit of effort on my part. I'm sure of it! :cheers2:
I'm glad exactly TWO of you reading this actually get what I'm saying. And here's an update for ya. I haven't spoken to her since the day before Christmas, and only once by text message since then. She is still copping out and giving excuses but has yeat to tell me the truth. I'm pretty sure I now know what's going on. She is thinking of getting back with her ex, I just went therough this with the last girl, I am getting used to the signs. She should just GROW THE FUCK UP and be honest about it. Anyways, I am happy to have learned this now instead of later on when it would have been more difficult.
Dump her. Don't do it in a roundabout way. Tell her it's not working out for either of us, and that we just can't go back and forth. It needs to be done. Move on, buddy! Chin up. New Years is just around the corner. Get inebriated and take home a loose goose.
Thanks hun, you are absolutely right. I am done letting others dictate my happiness. From now on, if there's gonna be a relationship, they're gonna have to prove they are worth it first. I would do the same for them after all. Hehe, goose sounds good right about now.
:cheers2: Thats aother thing it seems women can't understand about me....I don't give in to double standards. The more I look around the more relationships I see that are built upon double standards. I pity the fool...
I can't believe she told you not to take it personal! Like.. what the hell? How would you not? That's really dumb.. I'm sorry, no offense.. but really.. does she take you for an idiot? I think you should just propose a break and see how it goes. If she realizes she's really into you.. she'll tell you.. and maybe you'll realize you aren't that into her after all.. who knows. Good luck anyhow. Relationships are fucking dramatic.
P.S: Myspace is childish and drama on Myspace is even more childish and people who post bulletins about personal stuff unless it's like.. asking for help for an emergency or something like that.. well these people need to grow-up and get over themselves.. a bulletin.. about your relationship.. seriously.. a blog, okay, but a bulletin? No.
it's supposed to be an "announcement" for all your Myspace "friends" to see. not quite a blog for venting out personal issues.
She doesn't want a guy who is like all the rest snoop. Time to stand out by radioactive waste and try to grow gills.
Well Droop- it seems as though this has been sorted well enough without my input. I'd have given her the "space" at the onset of this as I'm pretty much in cherea's and LetLovin's camp as far as "needing" a relationship... I'd much rather be happy and single than miserable because someone's playing games keeping me on a string because I want some puss. When I say give her space I mean a lifetime worth of dump her from speed dial and forget she even exists. The signal seemed pretty clear when you originally posted. I get the sense that you're emotionally a bit too needy and invest heavily with a new relationship and in doing so probably push them away. One month and she's being emotionally unfaithful- that would be an absolute deal breaker for me.
Playing head games a month into a relationship is not a good sign. Get ready to play head games every other week... Just think, you could be missing out on finding your dream girl by sticking with this train wreck.
Thanks again everyone. And John, though I hate to use the word needy in reference to myself (more like hopeless romantic, which might be just as bad) I agree wholeheartedly that I enter into relationships hoping for the best and trying for the best. I don't exactly think "Hey! This is the one." as soon as I jump into a new relationship, but I don't go into one looking for it to end either. I am just becoming more aware of the selfcentered people out there these days, and perhaps I am coming off as such myself, but is it really being celf-centered to want happiness out of your life? I agree, I would rather be single and happy than together and miserable. Life is too short.
That might be painful, just chop a foot or two off. I don't know any footless guys. She probably doesn't either.
The hard thing is that "limbo land". Either sthg works , or it doesnt. Sure short term hassles can be tolerated. But at the end of the day , u just gotta work round things or end em.. ...Courtesy of those ever faithful friends Smith and Wesson...
Here's an update. This is the newest bulletin she has posted: "im tired of liars, cheaters, people who steal, if you cant fukin be honest with me bout something then dont fukin talk to me... " Nice, isn't it.
