Tired of being lonely. I have a chance here though. The girl has a boyfriend, but she does have feelings for me. It comes down to if she's willing to go for a change.

 

Beat my head against the wall, blood's running down my face, doesn't matter, keep beating my head against the wall until the fabled time which is still two/three months away.

 

All attractive women have boyfriends.

 

Close. Depends how level headed they are too, if that makes sense.

I wanna write about the situation, but it is hard without knowing the people involved. Oh well, good to vent on a semi-anonymous forum

Edit: Apparently this got me my new gem. By rule I must state so.

 

She broke up, she broke up, she broke up... with her boyfriend. Awww yeahhhh.

And called me to tell me she would.

 

Poor him, lucky you! Hopefully there isn't much tension between the two of them now and you can be free and clear.

 

The good thing is that I only met the guy for all of 5 minutes so I can't really feel too bad for him. If it's a good guy I'm always kinda down for them, empathic.

 

well, so far, so bad.

My "love interest" went on vacation a few weeks back, so naturally, we couldn't meet. Since she came back, I tried to get another date with her two times now. She said she doesn't have time (on two consecutive weekends), so I'm a bit apprehensive about the whole thing.

I don't understand why she won't tell me the truth, supposing that she isn't interested in me. But maybe it was coincidence after all.

 

Maybe she just doesn't have time?

 

F*** him. His loss's your gain, simple as that.

 

Well kinda, like waaay in the back of my mind

Kinda shows some of the difference between us though, DotW.

And Fabius, what does she do for work, or school or whatnot? Depending on what she is currently engaged it, it could definitely be a time issue.

 

I would think that if I hadn't experienced the opposite... I've been the guy who gets dumped for someone else, and it sucks, so I empathize with the dumpee.

 

You'd be surprised by that. While I am not the kind of guy you'd want to meet in a dark alley at night, a huge part of my, ehh, magnetism, I suppose, lies in the charisma that I hear shines when around the right person. Take my interest, for example -- she brings out a lighter side of me, which tends to surprise the people I know, who just don't expect that from me. I don't blame them -- normally I'm a rude, crude, cold-shouldered A-hole.

Screw empathy. Yeah, getting dumped for someone freaking sucks, been there too, but that's how it rolls. Grit your teeth and move on -- there'll be other woman. Besides, better now than in XYZ years.

So... Chicken has finally got his Chick?

 

I love puns, but not quite. Working on it...

Want to add more, but there really isn't much more to add.

 

She is level designer for a video game producer. Their current project entered it's beta phase a while ago, so work isn't the issue, I think.

Ah well, I'll try and talk to her tomorrow. I hope it was just bad luck.

 

As for me, today had a bad twist, then a possibly good one.

 

You did notice the disclaimer, right? If you kept on reading, you've got no one else but yourself to blame!

 

Yeah, I'm the same way. That is why I very rarely go for gals with boyfriends. If one really interests me, I just hover around for the right moment, but I don't interfere. The only exeption is my present girlfriend, who had been going out with a guy for four years. Only, he was a rebound and he was really emotionnally attached to her and she didn't want to hurt him so she stayed.... for four years... Until I came along and helped her out of that.

You say that like it's a good thing... It's funny. I think we're complete opposites. I'm a way too polite, very tactfull, too nice a guy (the "take advantage of this chump" kind of too nice). Maybe we could be a crimefighting duo. I know : White Knight and Black Guard....

 

I got home from a trip and found a different car in the driveway. The wife decided it was time for a new car. I must admit, when you pull into the driveway and see a strange car you hope it belongs to the spouse....
