Anybody else going through a breakup?

[Legatron4]

My girlfriend and I recently just cut ties after a year in a half. It's a very strange feeling knowing that person is not in your life anymore. She's in college and I'm not. So we just had different lives and honestly I hate dating college girls. They're way too immature and half of them don't drive or have any money. I just thought I would see if anyone else is going through this. Pretty shitty time.

I am married now but have gone through quite a few break ups. Was never easy for me, especially the ones I really fell for.

Sorry it happened man but keep your head up, it all will work out for the best in the end.

Also have been married for quite awhile now. But I remember. There is one from back in the day whose memory still brings "that old familiar pain." Now and again. Time heals.

Enough of them I'd rather not count,but I always got through them and now none and I do mean none of them matter.
No advice except that if you want a better day you'll find one, good luck dude .

A few years ago, I broke up with salt, my wife has been trying to get me to leave my mistresses; Red meat and caffeine.

On a real note, that old saying "time heals all" is so incredibly true. It does suck at first, just keep your mind right and have fun.

My old stepbrother is breaking up with his gender. Gonna make one ugly ass woman.

 

[Legatron4]

Thanks guys I appreciate the advice. I've been through one before and they suck. But your right, time does heal all.

Went through two divorces by the time I was 26. It was brutal. My wife and I have known each other for over 32 years. After the first year of dating I broke up with her and used the stupid expression "I need my space." We eventually got back together and got married in June of 1985.

One of the things that makes life both interesting and scary is that everything can change in an instant. You might meet your "other half" today, tomorrow, or next year. That might not happen if you have a girlfriend already. Whatever happens, your Rams brothers will be right here to help you get through it.

I have been with women I thought were going to be perfect matches ect. and it didnt last long. Break ups are always hard. I went from a guy who would try to hang on too long....too much of a romantic/sucker....to a guy who bail out whenever things first started to get irritating or infringed on my way of life at all. Have to find a balance, or maybe it finds you. I went on one date with my now wife, she moved in a week later, that was 22 years ago. Sometimes true love (sounds so cheesy) finds you when you are not looking for it.
Time does heal, hang in there Leg and have fun my man.

Went thru it alot way back when. Current wife and I broke up 4 times before we smartened up and just got married.

Sorry you are going through it, but my advice to you would be, dont fall in love with the next piece you get.

How does a man not fall in love? Is it a choice we make?

Around the time I met my wife, after going through two bad marriages, the last thing I had in mind was falling in love and getting married again.

Around that time I was dating several different women. Each had their pluses and minuses like all of us do. There was affection but not love leading to marriage. Then my wife walked into this meeting I was attending and it was all over from then until now. Of all the women I had been dating she was the most inconvenient and the least enthusiastic about hooking up with me.

I did have a choice to stay away from her and did leave her behind for about six months but was eventually drawn back to her, like the moth to the flame. Love is indefinable and often times crazy, kind of like the love for the Rams.

I think you misunderstood me PT. Wasn't suggesting he never fall in love again, just advising him that the next time he gets laid, it just might not be love that he is feeling at that moment

Ah, I see. I was seeing a woman around the time I met my wife, in fact they knew each other and had an obvious dislike for one another, that had shall we say...all the right physical attributes but she treated people like crap. I told her I wasn't in love with her and probably never would me. She said that was fine because I would learn to love her over time. Maybe but I highly doubted it unless she could have changed her personality...ah but those attributes.

Sooooooooo many fish in the sea.

Make sure you sample as many as possible before you "settle".

If you're still dating college girls, you're way too young to be thinking about marriage anyway. Stick and move Brudda.

 

[Legatron4]

Thanks a lot dudes. The problem was, she didn't drive and had no real money to her name. It's difficult to have to drive someone around all the time when I already do it for my job. I understand she's in college but I felt she was too concerned about hanging out with friends then setting herself up for success. The good news is I have a lot more free time and more money lol

 

[Pancake]

Don't worry it won't be long before you find another gal to take all your time and money away.

the thing is Desire, Obtain, then Cherish
sometimes the first two parts dominate and the Cherish part wains with time.
it's exciting to desire and obtain, but the real work and eventual glory is in the cherishing - treat her like she is the best thing in the world and she will be.
She needs and wants your affection above all else. Will she cherish you in return? That's what you want to find out, but it starts with your sacrifice of ego and self first
- I don't know. I have a great marriage but whenever i say that we get into a raging argument and things seem precarious, but I know I get out of it with love and sincere affection

One thing I always did when the post dump or dumped blues were bugging me....I worked man. Put in OT or got a second part time gig, paid off bills, upgraded the car or whatever. Keep busy. Nothing worse than sitting around drinking beer about it. Just my opinion of course.

I say enjoy being single while you're young. I'm single and I am the envy of my married friends. I'm also young enough to date college women so I know what you mean. Does get frustrating when you can't find any women who can at least drive somewhere. But most are not expecting to be doing any driving or paying for anything really anyway lol. That seems to have been something a lot of women have reserved for us to bring to the relationship.
