I don"t think I"m being bashed, however I"m attempting to set the record straight. I posted a story of some strange behavior which ended with me quite specifically stating that I wasn"t upset or hurt, mostly just confused about her behavior and that I wasn"t sure where I stood with her. Then someone chimes in that I should stop "obsessing" over her. How is that obsessing? I"ve been friends with her for 15 years and want to continue that friendship at the very least, so yes of course I"m going to give the situation some thought about where to go as opposed to severing ties with her entirely. Which wouldn"t be possible anyway as we have dozens of mutual friends. And again I"m not even offended by what happened, if anything I"m bemused by it because I don"t really have any emotions invested in her. I was hoping for a lay and not much else.edit: I don"t want it to seem like I"m bashing you. We all go through this stuff, all of us. All of us deal with insecurity, and all of us have made mistakes when it comes to relationships. Many, many, many mistakes. At some point though, you have to stop kidding yourself and really focus on changing your behaviors so that they don"t lead you to the same places you"ve been before. That"s all I"m saying.
To clear things up:Sutekh said:Why are you breaking things off with this new girl?
Backstory:Sutekh said:Oh, don"t remember reading about this british girl.
So is that why you"re breaking things off with the new girl? For the british one?
Just fucking do it so we can stop reading: Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne, Anne, New Anne, New Anne ...Eomer said:Not necessarily ending it with New Anne because of Brit.
Dude it"s not that we think you go out with a girl on one date and if you like her enough you start preparing for your wedding. It"s the simple fact that you even SAY things like "I could potentially fall for this girl really fast." That thought never even enters my mind when I meet a girl. It"s not even a thought process I"m capable of having. It is just a WEIRD thing to think. And the thing is, when you think something like that, it"s not that you can"t decide after time that the girl isn"t all that great for you. You can still screen just as well. The problem is that, when you start the relationship off thinking "she could be IT," and she really IS it, you are already decided on her. But the girl, even if you may be IT for her, is onlybeginningto discover how much she likes you. You could be a perfect match, but when you evaluate her long term prospects prematurely, and she fits the bill, all of a sudden you are now way more into her than she is into you. That puts you in a position of trying tohidehow much you like her long enough for her to discover how much she really does like you. And that shit seeps through to her, consciously or unconsciously, because women are amazingly intuitive at sensing that sorta thing.Eomer said:I don"t think I"m being bashed, however I"m attempting to set the record straight.

I am talking about being emotional unstable / young and not intellectually stimulating. And if you open your eyes you will notice that it plays a huge part.Eomer said:I"m not going to be oogling cute girls walking down the street because I think they might be intellectually stimulating.
You are a man below 30. Grats!Ashes Emberblade said:I find that every time I realize a girl is "marriage material" I immediately lose interest in her. What does that mean?
We have a winner.The Ancient said:It"s not the fact that he assesses whether or not girls are long term material, it"s the fact that he does it IMMEDIATELY after meeting them.
