Hey, I might be a hard-ass m***********, but that doesn't mean I'm not open to change, as long as it's reasonable.

 

I meant the latter. The *gasp* quitting caffeine part... I mean...

 

Me? Quitting caffeine? HA! I don't mind reasonable change... but I'll never stop drinking caffeine - in fact, if I die while drinking caffeine, my life has been an overwhelming success.

 

Hung out with the ex-girlfriend today... everything was fine (as in not awkward), but it killed me to not be able to hold her or kiss her (or do anything relationshippy) or just act like I have for the past ten.5 moths with her. I kept hoping something would happen.

Or, I keep hoping that this has all been one freakin' long nightmare...

To put it blatantly, I still feel like ****. I mean, I don't expect to feel better any time soon, but even a little better would be nice. At least I've stopped crying every night...

 

I didn't knew you were into masochism and rapture, Saber.

Let go and F-U her. You'll feel much better.

 

Oh, masochism is good stuff

 

Really? It's this very same masochism which contributes to the nightmare you're currently into. Basically, you're into self-imposed emotional rapture.

I'm no masochist nor a fan of emotional rapture, so I prefer to give a F-U, but hey, to everyone it's own.

 

That girl I was talking about? Not going to happen. Gutted!

Went to a party last night and told her exactly how I feel, she said she just didn't feel the same way and was sorry. Sorry? What a clown, she's got nothing to apologize for at all. Silly mare.

I won't pretend I'm not gutted, because she's a really nice lass and really pretty. Ah well, plenty more fish in the sea I guess! Rejection sucks, huh?

 

I have been single for about a year now...and it is great! I don't see myself getting into another relationship for some time...

I don't blame anyone else for my problems. I don't feel as if someone else is holding me back. I don't have to conform myself to another's needs.

Funny thing about women, they are much like cigarettes: you only need one if you already have had one recently; after some time, the very need itself goes away (I'm not talking about horniness BTW...).

It is going to have to be one special women for me to allow myself to develop those needs once again.

But in the meantime...

I love my guitar. She's curvy and she makes beautiful sounds if I touch her the right way. Plus, once I take her off my lap, I don't need to spend another thought on her till it is time to play once again.

 

lol. don't smoke myself so I can't attest to the truth of this statement, but it seems like a pretty smooth simile. may use it when I give someone advice nextime

@Saber

I'm on DotW on this one. You want to salvage the friendship? Fine, stick around. It'll be tough but you'll eventually get through it. Wont be the same though. But don't stick around hoping that you guys will get together again (especially since it doesn't seem likely from what you're saying) because that's just kicking your own ass. I myself am not really into masochism. Rant about it a couple of days, cry a bit, get drunk for around a week then avoid contact with the ex until such time that I can function normally around her and keep it cool without kicking my own ass on the inside.

@Barmy

yeah, it does suck. you take it pretty well though. btw, that last remark was not a shot, it's more of a compliment. I myself don't take rejection very well.

 

You can't win them all mate. I guess it all depends on the lass in question and how she lets you down. No point moping about it when you get rejected though, I used to be like that and it gets you nothing. Her loss, plenty more lasses out there .

After a long time of being single after my last relationship, I'm ready now to get into it again. I'll be going out loads again and finding myself a bit of skirt dude . It's all good. I'll start going out with my mate Colin and his lads, he's a proper slag he is, you're usually guaranteed to cop off. Proper gift of the gab. I wish I was like that. I'm crap at chatting women up, big time! I always get 'awww, you're such a lovely guy'. I struggle getting from there to lets get sweaty, that's my biggest problem. I'll find meself something though .

 

lmao, I get that a lot too! When I get around to uploading a pic in the SP pic section you guys will see why though. Most recent example: I asked a girl how old she thought I was: 17. Try 22

Doesn't matter, I still get my fair share of admirers, I guess some of the girls are into the whole younger guy look

 

As geeky as it sounds, using online chat is a good way to get to know members of the opposite (or same sex), especially for me as I find it hard to talk to strangers. You can just chat away and when you do finally decide to meet up, you 'know' them well enough to be able to talk and joke around with them comfortably.

 

That's certainly true, since you can treat everyone like a block of wood for all it matters. However, I'd really have to wonder exactly why you would want to move the thing to real life. Unless it is sex, which is rather difficult to do without being physically there.

And if it isn't sex, then wouldn't it better to keep blabbering online like you are used to?

 

We're not big into that locally, at least not the circles I go around in.

I guess our substititute are all these new internet picture pages like friendster and multiply and stuff. If 2 people are single and like what they see in each other's pictures, they set up a meet, etc.

 

Meh, I've gone from one extreme to the other. Having had an absolute corker get away from me, I now have someone pining after me that I am not interested in at all. Irony is such a cruel mistress

 

I'd say be happy. That ensures you'll end up with someone really special to you.

 

Urith, you're scaring me. That's exactly what happened to me last night. Some big ugly bird was wanting a bit. Real slapper too, she just came out of nowhere and planted one on my lips. I broke away like 'no thanks duck, I'm flattered like...' but then she kept following me about. Scary!

 

That's molestation.

Or do they assume a guy always wants one?

 

Haha, are we going to get into a discussion on male sex drive?
