I got dumped first...

Recommended Posts

OK, me and Princess Whuffo have been having more than our share of problems lately, and I was trying to figure out how to get out, and she tells me that she does not think either of us is happy and that we should take some time off.

Pretty cool, huh? I don't have to be the bad guy, and now there is a good chance that I will be able to remain friends with a pretty cool chick (for a whuffo).

careful about the staying friends part. My last 3 girlfriends are still "friends" and I can't friggin stand them! They're annoying and I can't force myself to tell them to F' off. The worst part is they're hot...damn...I need to find myself a hot skychick like...Daizey ;):$

Oh my, trouble in paradise. Remaining friends all depends on if either party is the jealous type and can really take a "break". Don't you kinda have to remain "friends" being you both work at the same place, or has that changed.

Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

Well, I can definitely take a break.

We still work at the same place.

I think it is going to be OK. She basically just realized that we don't want the same things. Oddly, I think that watching "Good Stuff" helped make it happen. There is a part in there where one of the guys from Airspeed says something to the effect of "If you want to sit home on the couch with the remote, then go big. That's just not my thing." I think that when Alicia saw that, it helped illustrate the differences between us. She never wants to try anything new, and I am the type who seeks out new experiences. Results in trouble with vacation planning, weekend planning, etc.

She always seemed very not-psyco - you'll be fine, she will be fine - now you won't get in trouble any more when you stay late at the DZ, but tell her we still have that pool out there if she wants to come hang out.

edited to add- At least it wasn't another jumping intervention.

Why is it that people who do the breaking up refer to themselves as the "bad guy"? To me, the "bad guy" is the one staying in the relationship and sabatoging it until the other does the breaking up. That, to me, causes more pain than just being honest.

I wasn't sabotaging it. I just knew it was never going to grow into something bigger for longer than she did. If I had ended it while she still had hope that it was going somewhere, she definitely would have thought of me as the bad guy.

For me, I would rather a guy tell me that he didn't see our relationship going anywhere and he was ready to break things off so I didn't waste my time. That doesn't mean it wouldn't be painful, but at least I would know. That's just me, though; everyone is different. I didn't mean to sound like you were sabatoging your relationship - I meant people in general. Sorry.

No problem.

Incidentally, there are relationships that are never going anywhere and both people know it and stick with it. It is OK to be human and want comfort and convenience sometimes, even if the whole time you know that someday it will have to change.

I have to agree with Laurel. If two people aren’t into a relationship they should go their separate ways. Even if it’s a one sided thing where one person is into it, the person who is not into it should make it known. Trying to spare feelings only makes it worse in the end. You have a better chance of “really” staying friends if you just make it known.

I would definitely rather have a guy tell me I wasn’t in his future than to try and spare me heartache.
