OT: And the rodeo comes to a glorious stopFollow

After braving the dungeon that is her parents, and staying in a very good relationship with the girl for nearly a month, Folish decided to break things off today.

It was my first relationship, first time asking a girl out, first date and the first heart break.

Even though right now it sucks, as I still like the girl and don't quite understand why she no longer likes me, in retrospect I'm glad I took this path. Now that all the firsts are out of the way (well, most) I kind of have a "feel" for how things will go in the future. And who knows, maybe it'll work out next time.

Basically, even though many of you don't listen to a word I say or consider my advice and logic misinformed, hear me now:

Even though you'll probably get hurt, and even though you'll feel absolutely terrible once it happens it's always good to try. Life is too short to always be afraid to make a move. Hell, if you do make the move you may end up starting something that'll last forever. For me that wasn't the case this time, but I've definetly eliminated my fear of relationships which will prove quite helpful in the long run.

I'll edit this post later to make more sense out of it, kinda in typing shock still >_>

Nearly a month?

Wait for the one that breaks up with you after a year plus...


First heartbreaks suck. Hell, all heartbreaks suck.

Sorry to hear that. I've learned my lesson already. My next girlfriend is gonna be mail-order from Russia.

Damn, sorry bro.

Been there, done that. Don't really want anybody to go through heartbreak, not even the guys who drive themselves to extreme.


Also, no pun or hurt intended to Shao, but damn it, now it's only 2 weddings coming -_-

Wait, what?!

She drags you along to meet her parents and then ends it?

That's like torturing someone right before killing them...

I agree with Maz... that is kinda harsh. You were just talking about going to meet the parents and now this? Sorry man, that's rough and I feel for ya but ya, be glad that her decision came after only a month and not a year or more into it.

Stay strong and keep focused, TBC will make it ALL better real soon.

Wait until you get the one that sits you down after several months and explains to you that you were an experiment to see if she could go straight, but decided not to tell you she was a lesbian until she'd decided- after several months of keeping you in the dark.

Fourteen years later and I'm still bitter. Smiley: glare


Sorry to hear about your misfortune, but you'll probably go through it more than once in a lifetime. It sounds corny, but you learn to take it less personally if you keep dating. It also makes you appreciate the "right one" even more when you realise you don't have to leave her, and she doesn't seem to want to leave you either. After 12 years with my wife (9 married), I shudder to even imgine having to go through the dating game.

give me her name and place of birth and ill pass it along to my, er, uncle in construction. and ill get her little dog too.

joking aside, dont let yourself become her emotional *****. some (not all, but definetely some) girls will do that with ex's, constantly dump their emotional problems on them in what can only be described as the biggest c*cktease act in the world. remember....you pwn face! dont take none of that crap. trust me, its NOT worth it, even if she has the roundest, most juicy *** this side of mexico.

TBC can't replace a round juicy backside. Or the jumblies on the front side.

That's what the box that came with the game is for, cut a hole in the front of the box, and you're set. :)

Well sorry to hear that, but you could look at it from my point of view:

At least you didn't walk in on her and a gay dude having sex in a rather uncomfortable place, after a 2 year relationship and being engaged to her - AFTER she made it clear to you that she didn't like that kind of thing. Smiley: lol


True story that happened to me.
I'm still not sure what was the worst part about the whole thing - the break up, the butt secks, the cheating, or seeing a gay dude's jeweled butt plug as he was humping my fiancée. Smiley: banghead

(Ps: At that point he was a well known "bisexual," but as it turned out that was his last female encounter, he came out as fully gay to his heavily religious folks and moved to San Francisco to work as a landscaper shortly after. I'm sure it sounds very cliché but it just goes to show you how f'ed up life can be sometimes. lol)


You'll be fine man, I wish I could say the first one is always the worst but clearly that's not always the case. Smiley: lol

Might have been a little more effective had you been ahead of the 18 supportive posts.


Shaolinz don't let a bad girl get you down. Press on and before you know it you'll be gay. "Happy" I mean of course, happy.

I remember my first "true" break up: two days before our one-year anniversary, I discovered that I had been cheated on for about six months. This wouldn't be completely shattering, of course, until I found out that it was with random people. Names were not even exchanged during these hookups. They were completely anonymous. The words "gross" and "dangerous" come to mind.

You know, I could understand if they'd found one person that was somehow more emotionally (or even sexually) fulfilling than myself, but to sleep with most of the city we lived in? And not even know who they were? @#$%

Fortunately, I passed the subsequent HIV test and have been passing them ever since.

I also spent the next couple of years hating myself, hating the person I'd just broke up with, hating everyone they'd slept with... and pretty much loathing everything else. I still think about it from time to time, but I don't get truly angry anymore. It's been about six years since then and it's rare that this person even crosses my mind.

But I'm glad for it now... I know the "signs." I've learned. And next time I'll be more prepared.

Well, I mean the next time I can make it past two months with somebody, seeing as nobody is able to stand my gaming addiction. :D
