Well, she had him move to be with her, but wasn't willing to do the same thing... sounds like she was at least consistent.

If there is another IM chat, try ending it by saying:

"Well, at least my wife has been happier since I haven't been spending so much time with you."

Then sign off.

When the email hits, wait a day and just say "sorry. typo. I meant 'life'"

This reminds me of my girlfriend in college who I'd been dating for a year or so. She kept saying that she wasn't ready to be committed, and that we should see other people. One day, I'd had enough of it, so I picked up a girl at the bar (only time I ever managed to do that). At which point, I got dumped. Seems she really just wanted a chance for herself to see other people. I wasn't supposed to date anyone else. Later, she had the nerve to act jealous when I was talking to a mutual friend at a bar. Total bitch...

Women, efficient at getting what they want, and saying one thing but doing another.

Long term if you want to be her friend, meh, okay, but in the short term she just wanted to use you so she didn't have to spin any stories. After graduation, she'd drop you like your nothing because she just didn't want her 'happy day' ruined.

I don't get where I got the QFT response, I pointed out a line that made it obvious she was playing around on him, which was my point.

be her friend. dont listen to these monkeys.

Dude, if you are friends with exes and are married (or in a serious relationship), your ...

a) wife is banging somebody else and is just using you for your health insurance (or in the case of a current girlfriend, she wants to marry you really badly and is willing to look past this for now - wait until you are married and then the first part applies)
b) ex girlfriend is so fucking ugly she feels safe
c) wife/current girlfriend is retarded because she trusts you far more than she should

Face it: we are friends with females because we want to sex them up. Sorry, no other reason applies. You may think you are friends with a girl you aren't attracted to but you aren't. And it isn't your fault - evolution has put this in our genes so the species can continue. Monogamy ain't genetic.

Good to know. I went out with this one girl I didn't think I wanted to sex up but wanted to be friends with because she has a great personality and is super nice. All I have to do now is figure out what part of her I'm attracted to.

great personality + super nice = you like her head.

So basically you want to fuck her head. And you can take that in whatever way you want.

I believe a swift kick in the cunt would have been sufficient in this case.

It won't happen. I wanted to be attracted to her, but not string her along. So I thought maybe if I get her out of her lawyer suit and into some jeans she would look better. I was pretty blunt and asked her out the next night after we meet. She said she wasn't interested because we didn't click. I was freaking being nice to this girl and trying to give her a chance and she does this. She sat there for 3 hours talking actually giving me a headache at the end. Then she says that. She was nice and had a good personality, but being optimistic I thought things would be better conversation wise if I could actually hear her over the crowd.

I do not think that other people see what you see when you see yourself, FWIW. Perhaps a tighter pair of pants would help.

d'oh!

If someone did that to me I'd be like "Well thanks for making me sit here for 3 hours listening to things that there was absolutely no benefit to me to listen to. Seeya!" and then I'd be gone.

I understand what you're saying. Everyone I know tells me I'm awesome and the most thoughtful guy ever, but I feel everyone should be that way and don't think anything of it.

I thought the last hour was terrible and told her that and maybe we should meet somewhere else. I was way to blunt. She said it wasn't bad at all we just didn't click. I don't know if I totally agree with bonegavel, but it doesn't bother me at all since I didn't want more out of the relationship than I did when she blew me off.

So another update. And even though this is probably causing massive irreparable harm to my psyche, it sure does make the work day go faster for everyone else doesnt it? That's what I am here for . To ignore everyone's excellent advice to provide endless entertainment.

Of course I have been talking to her off and on because I couldn't help myself. Then this last Thursday she basically hung up on me in mid conversation. I called back several times. Finally, she answers and said oh I have to go into work quick. Ill call right back. Three hours later she calls back.

So in my mind that was the final straw until probably the next final straw. So the next day she texts me good morning and i ignore it. She texts me again in middle of the day I ignore it. Then I actually amazingly enough had a date. So she texts me in middle of the date and of course I ignore it because I am busy. She then leaves 2 voice mail messages and several texts saying how worried she is about me and how she doesn't get why I am ignoring her.

So when I get back to my place I text her and say I was busy, but I was really confused because I know this is not like her. She is not normally this concerned about me. Then it occurred to me. I had a theory. I wasn't sure if I was right or not but she had her final the next day and she needed my help to study for it because we always did that together when we were going out.

So the next day she texts me asking what is going on and why I am ignoring her and I don't respond. Today for some reason because I cannot leave well enough alone I text her and say that I am not ignoring her I am just busy.

And she talks about how unfair I am being and how she never ignored me for three days. I mention the fact she just hung up on me the other day and that shes the one who cheated on me. She doesn't deny it and I ask why she was so desperate to get ahold of me. No answer on that either.

She asks to talk online and I basically launch into the whole I need more space thing and that I wish her good luck but its time for me to move on. She says ok and I log off.

Not two minutes later she texts me and asks me a question on her upcoming final that is on monday. At this point I lose it, ( i know it takes a lot for me) I said are you fucking insane go ask giovanni or one of your genius friends.

so then her next texts are and i do respond but this is what she said
we seriously n eed to talk please
no i need to talk to you. if you dont want to talk to me after this thats fine
i just need five minutes then i will leave you alone
i seriously am going to fail my final. i cant focus i dont get what changed
why cant you give me five minutes
are you trying to get back at me
but there are things i have to say
but i was there to talk to you. i never ignored you on purpose. (guess she ignored me on accident)
what do you want me to do? not talk to him?

And that point i said i had to go and i havent heard back.

I feel like Rocky in Rocky III. When he found out he had only fought creampuffs to keep his title and he asked if anything was real.

I feel the same way, but at least I am getting some good stories out of this.

I am dating some new people and I am still hurt but I am moving on and i guess its good to see what kind of person she actually is but it is shocking that i cared so much for someone who is so selfish.

Fire away

great to see you reaching this stage so quickly I suppose. it can often take time - but yes...it's quite the shocking realization isn't it? You thought you were so lucky to find someone who was so into you, and it turns out they were just so into being needed by anyone, there was nothing special about you, because it was all about them.

Honestly the best revenge would have been to totally ignore her, seriously it would have made her feel so shitty because she would have realized she's not important.

You are on the right path to ignore her, whatever you do don't give her anything she really wants (like exam help or putting on a show for her family). At best you'll just feel really used, at worst she'll make your life miserable during the time you are actually trying to help her. Women can be insanely evil for no reason.

Anyone else in a similar situation, I'd suggest bailing early. My ex wasn't as bad as this sounds, but it all ends up the same. If the girl does not respect you she never will. Same goes for the ladies too, its not really something that can be improved over time... usually disrespect is a downward spiral.

Just for future notice, when she sends a text message to you on a date, rather than ignoring her, text back that you're on a date right now and can't talk. That should get the point across.

Booya. Ignore the hell out of her, as much as it hurts it's better than talking to her and subconsciously nurturing the fantasy that things could work out. If she's cheated on you, or even come close to what you would consider cheating (even if nothing physical occured, if it was say "emotional cheating") then she doesn't respect you or she can't control herself. If she doesn't respect you, then fuck the ho...kick her to the curb. If she can't control herself, then she won't be able to control herself in the future - and are you really willing to live with that? Willing to live with the thought that on your honeymoon while you're asleep she might be screwing the help at the hotel? If not, then kick the ho to the curb.

That should definately do the trick. "On a date. Bout to get naked" or some such.

For whatever reason, this scene from Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade always struck a chord with me, and became a metaphor for a lost relationship that you're trying to hold onto. During my aforementioned relationship with the girl who wanted to date other people but then dumped me as soon as I did, I always felt like I could somehow still save the relationship. I thought that we were meant to be together. The grail is like a lost relationship. You think you can save it, but you can't, and reaching for it will only lead to your doom.



Poor Indiana can almost reach the grail. It's just out of his grasp! He's watched Elsa fall to her doom trying to get it, but he thinks he can get it. Then his father, who wants the grail more than anyone, tells him: "Indiana. Indiana. Let it go." In some weird way, that scene helped me eventually get over the Evil Larissa.

Edit: Heh. Watching the scene now, the old Knight is waving goodbye to the relationship. It all works! Then you ride off into the sunset to find someone new.

Which is why one should listen to elders.

I think you need to end it with the coldest of kiss offs.
I've only once been in this broke up infatuation phase and this worked well.

We had been separated and talking etc for a while it was clear as day on the outside it was ending, but I couldnt see it at first.

Then she was supposed to come see me and at the last minute something came up she couldn't but really wanted to see me, etc. So I drove 5.5 hours with no notice to spend a weekend together, the radio stopped working 25 minutes into the trip and I sat and thought a lot.

When I got to her place it as magical, within 5 minutes we were naked in her living room floor. That finished in its usual way, I got up pulled my clothes back on and said, "Thanks but I need to be getting back now"

We never spoke again. its way out of character for me, but I still chuckle when I think about that. I had planned the whole way if she said something about dinner or going out to eat I was going to toss her a $20 and say sorry this should take care of it.

I was holding back for a little while out of the (retarded) thought that we might be able to at least like...be friends or whatever. But now I have come to terms myself with the fact that she's a cockteasing bitch and frankly there isn't really anything that she brings unique to a friendship (aside from a nice rack) that'd make me want to be friends with her...so yeah...I will zip that shit up and send it out - tonight...maybe tomorrow or weds.

Don't you have your own thread to update this sort of stuff in?

Last we knew, you were going to go meet with the {insert bad term here}

lol yes i do. i probably should pull it back up and make a (final) update in it and shoot those emails off. was more a stream-of-consciousness thing than an attempt to hijack LWFS's thread.

my preferred term right now is: "lying bitch." In fact that's what my cellphone flashes when she calls (better than not having her name in there and answering on the spur of the moment, or forgetting the area code for ohio and answering thinking it's a job)
