Re: Crush'd
You do know "I have a" is not actually a sentence?

Re: Crush'd
You've called me D'anne, D'ana, and probably even D'ebiers. But you always call me X person. Why not biers? Why not just X? The story unfinished in the authors mind is a poor story indeed, my friend, and deserves closure. Make it so, and the world shall smile all the readier for it!
What the hell is wrong with me now. THANKS SAITHIS. GOOD GOD. I sound like a hippy.

Re: Crush'd
As Steven King will say, repeatedly, it's not the destination, but the journey. A story half finished is a journey half started.

Re: Crush'd
You can't half start a journey, really. Half a step is still a step. It's more a journey half finished.
And besides, Stephen King's most frightening character was a clown.

Re: Crush'd
I think that's more a statement of achievement...I mean a clown? And it was a damn scary clown at that.

Re: Crush'd
Let's see...
GF 1 (kind of): Let me take her on dates, and kissed me back when I kissed her, then told me how excited she was that she was going to see her BF tomorrow. Yeah.
GF 2: Dumped me when I told her I wouldn't have sex before marriage, then became a lesbian.
GF 3: Dated her for 3 weeks. She thought we were moving too fast and broke up with me. Why? Because I made her a sandwich for lunch. "It felt like we were an old married couple when you did that, and I'm not ready for that." Right.
GF 4: This one is the real doozy. Got set up with her on a blind date, and we hit it off. Kind of a long-distance relationship, but we saw each other on the weekends. She broke up with me because "With my college workload, I don't really have the time to be in a relationship with anyone right now." A week later, I found out she was skipping classes to bone her new beau.
Bitter? Not me. Just... sobered. Crushes don't come quite as easily as they once did.Asymmetrically shod ass-kicker of the fan club

Re: Crush'd
I suppose I could end the sentence with, "crush," but that story is predictable and screams sequel.
I love being an optimist ^_^ I suppose I could say I've had some less than ideal dates, but not a lot or real bad experiences so I suppose I can't complain. I do have a friend who's two ex girlfriends ended up becoming lesbians and dating eachother.Last edited by SDF; 2007-07-28 at 09:57 PM.

Re: Crush'd
This may seem just crazy, but there are people like that. The worst thing is that they twist the situation and take all their insecurities and crap and make you feel like you're the one to blame.
In my country there's a saying that applies here. Translated it would be "There are people who are better to lose than to find". Or something like that.
Clearly most of these girls you mention fall into that category. I know 'cause I've had my share too.
GF 4: This one is the real doozy. Got set up with her on a blind date, and we hit it off. Kind of a long-distance relationship, but we saw each other on the weekends. She broke up with me because "With my college workload, I don't really have the time to be in a relationship with anyone right now." A week later, I found out she was skipping classes to bone her new beau.
Well, the guy who writes it has some theories of his own, some of which are hard to argue with. One of them says that when a woman breaks up with her boyfriend, the reason is always that she has another guy.
No matter if they say that they "need time alone", are "confused", or similar excuses.
The last anecdote you post is just another piece of evidence that supports this theory.
For those who read spanish, check out www.exnovia.com.ar
Also if any guy has been dumped and needs to talk about it, you can PM me.

Re: Crush'd
I haven't been in that particular situation, but I have been in
GF 2: Dumped me when I told her I wouldn't have sex before marriage, then became a lesbian.
Recently, I found out she's now into women.
GF 3: Dated her for 3 weeks. She thought we were moving too fast and broke up with me. Why? Because I made her a sandwich for lunch. "It felt like we were an old married couple when you did that, and I'm not ready for that." Right.

Re: Crush'd
Errr....not entirely true. I just broke up with the guy I was dating. Definitely don't have another guy. Yes, there are some crappy girls out there that I'm sure have another pony waiting in the barn, if not saddled...But for pete's sake, we're not all like that.
Just like, despite me having been cheated on twice already (keep in mind, that is twice out of two relationships), I don't think all guys will cheat and/or lie to me. And trust me, with my experiences with guys, not just those relationships, but with friends and family members, I have PLENTY of reason to think otherwise.
Cheers,

Re: Crush'd
The person who wrote that and has had people break up with them because they found someone else is probably always dating the same type of person. I don't think I would be too upset with a girl if she broke up with me for someone else as long as she didn't lie to me about it. It's just part of dating.
Well I think that gets to the whole core of optimism/pessimism. I can be happy with what I have, and I wont be looking for someone else if I find someone I like, because I will already be happy.

Re: Crush'd
Ouch! I didn't know, I swear I thought this was posted in Relationships! I apologize.
To relevant mod: Should/can we move the post/s? :s
I know, I know :( You're a good person. Please take no offense. I think it doesn't relate to your situation, though, for the little I know of it.
But well, either there's a lot of crappy girls out there or it's actually common, because I keep hearing this all the time.

I'm not so sure about this, but I'll put the rest of my musings in the relationship thread.

Re: Crush'd
You know, a thing I've wondered after reading much of this thread...how does one develop a crush, and especially truly fall in love with, someone who is rarely seen, heard, or felt? Sure, there are computer microphones and video chat, but I don't quite understand the concept of sharing a deep relationship with someone over the internet.
Not to say that it's bad or anything, but such a thing has never happened to me before and I simply don't...well, understand the whole thing.

Re: Crush'd
Well, not always, but it does seem to be the rule rather than the exception. Certainly when you get the platitudes, it's probably because she doesn't want to tell you the truth. Of course, if she dumps you because she caught you cheating, well, that's whole a different story...

Re: Crush'd
*shrug* I really don't know. Explaining how my own relationships work was never my strong point.
But I've had meaningful relationships in the real world, one's society would dub (and I as well) as deep. And I'm currently in a internet only relationship. Pretty limited in communications. But I'm completely happy with that. And so far I haven't been able to feel much of a difference. Okay, well there has been the long distance aspect that itches at you, as well as the frustration of the physical distance as a whole, but as feelings and deep relationships go I feel no difference. I feel just as loved, comfortable, or deep and certainly in a relationship as any other real life one. Because to me it is a real life one. We're just separated physically for a while. And I guess that's how I approach it and that's why it comes out that way.avatar by kuja.girl

Re: Crush'd
As someone who was in a long distance relationship for almost three and a half years, it is extremely hard. Granted, we didn't meet online (met at an academic competition the night before it was over), but maintaining a relationship like that is difficult. You just kind of work through it for the times when you do get to see and touch and smell them. Phone conversations also help tremendously. There is a reason my family got long distance and why I'd regularly kill the phones by falling asleep with them by my ear. Even just hearing him breathe as we fell asleep was cherished.
*sigh* I wouldn't recommend it to anyone, but I also wouldn't trade what we had for anything.

Re: Crush'd
Internet relation psychology is completely new. And can be hard to understand. I'm sure a lot of the people in relationships here can tell you they have their pros and cons. Usually the people eventually meet up though, and a lot of those relationships succeed because they are built on a mental interpersonal basis.

So internet relationships can be just as..."real" as a real life one? Interesting...
