Ohhhh and here we go. It's almost midnight and I just got an email from her - first communication since yesterday. Here is what I'm dealing with, and again, I ONLY ever fucking worshipped this girl and smothered her with kindness and compliments. So, without further adu, her apology / attempt at guilt trip / horseshit.
(Any idea why this is being reduced in size? it's much larger and therefore legible, on my PC...)
And then she linked a bunch of music video's about how hard love is I assume. While I was typing this she sent two more emails with more music video's. *facepalm* Again, this is a 34 year old woman. Do any of you still doubt just how "done" I am with this?

If Depp, can do it, we all can do it. Heard has a tiny cranium, so at least he doesn't have to spend much on hats.

I have never in my life had a woman that went THAT insane every month. Worst case they just got a little meaner than usual, and I've had to dodge the occasional shoe. Whatever. I like 'em a little mean. That just makes them extra sexy, which infuriates them further.
I can't even imagine going through that 12 times a year.

So, my turn to post a female related train wreck. I went on a date (TGI Fridays, if that's stupid, please tell me, first dating foray in 3 years) with a chick I met online. The entire time, all she did was shit talk her ex-boyfriend. I was super annoyed by this and tried to redirect the conversation to no avail. After about a half hour I just lost it and said, "Can we please put a moratorium on the complaining and talk about something interesting? Save this shit for your psychiatrist." Well, she just starts crying. Shit, maybe she has an actual psychiatrist. Everyone in the place is now staring at me. I just mumble out "sorry it didn't work out" leave some money and walk/run out of there.
So yeah, how much practice/trainwrecks like this do I need before I figure it out again? I've still got latent anxiety issues and this definitely isn't good for them

Yeah, I'm hoping the next date (with someone else, obviously) ends without the crying and the whole restaurant staring at me like I'm some kind of wife beater. But still, who the hell shit-talks an ex on a first date? I don't care about your relationship with your ex other than the fact that it's hopefully over. The waitress doesn't care about this, the other patrons don't care about this, there's nobody on planet Earth that cares about this.

Someone who isn't over their ex and is trying to jump back into the dating world way too soon. This is going to happen. It's happened to me a handful of times. I just jumped in and shit talked my ex because it's kind of fun. And then I fucked 'em. Your story is funny, I laughed at the thought of it. However, next time you may want to say something a little more tactful like "Let's not talk about exes. Everyone has a past but let's have a drink and some fun and forget about the assholes we used to date. Ex talk is 3rd date conversation... or pillow talk *wink*"

Bitch-ass guys do it too. I have this friend who would start posting all these lame videos on Facebook when he would break up with his girlfriend-of-the-month.

Rough spot, man. If someone spends their entire date with you talking about their ex, you can rule out anything past a one night stand. If that sounds good, follow advice given. Otherwise, next up.

Perfect execution Xequecal. Onoes you watching this?
That email does read like a younger girl wrote it.. I wouldn't even say 17, that's like 13 year-old material. Is she emotionally retarded like all day long?

I do think it is rare. Like you said, I can totally understand some grumpiness, even anger (thrown shoe and all), but there are some who just go all exorcist for no apparent reason. Hopefully, men who end up there are strong enough to just walk away after the first couple months establishing a pattern.
Onoes, I'd really consider blacklisting her email address or something and possibly blocking her on your phone. Sounds like she will never fully go away.

Yeah, I woke up this morning to 8 more emails, a couple of them are probably 4-5 pages long if I was to print them. It's clear she's super sad/upset by the contents, but she's going to have to deal with it. I don't know what I can do, short of rushing over to her house and holding her and telling her everything is ok and it was all a big misunderstanding or something (what she apparently wants to happen by the last emails), which is not going to happen.
And yeah, I'm being honest and forthright here, but I've never talked badly about past relationships before, so no worries there. If someone were to ask me what happened, I would say "Ohh she's a sweetheart, a really good person, but we were just really different, so it didn't work out.", I'm not a dick
