thread to get over a breakup

if govts take action to avoid droughts, that's worth considering in micro level also imo.

ps i dunno why you know anything about a yr long ex, gtfo out of that circle of friendship on the pronto srs

just remember: too much rain after long drought = flood. Baby steps :)

IDK, this is often but not always necessary. I'm still friends with someone I was with for years. That said, we did go through a period after breaking up where we didn't speak at all for about a year but after that we were both mostly fine with being friends on at least some level.

<3 vg but nah no such thing as too much rain after a year w/out any sex in the rain the flu is passed on through virus anyway iirc go get rained on

i only got ime E, also i got home via a peugeot trunk with 2 others abt an hour ago my advice carries much caveat

but caveating that caveat i have never felt that 'friends' with an ex is a good step. i may be on a lower maslow step in ex terms.

distance is certainly necessary

Yes, a little distance and time can help a lot.

x-post Yeah well sometimes it isn't and even when it's not an awful idea, it's usually complicated. I just sort of never really understood cutting someone who I once cared that much for out of my life completely. Obv depends on the particulars though and who knows what the details are here. I'm just sayin'.

details are important, s'true

just trimmed the hell out of my breakup beard. I feel like the newest of men.

New beard! ready for life! Yess!

yeah, v much so. i don't know if it was just the particulars of our relationship, but cutting each other out... wasn't an option, i guess? in the most positive sense of it. that even with romance aside we were (and are) still too close to just go our separate ways. it's certainly an advantage that she's currently abroad and so not acting out the new relationship in my face, and as soon as i get out the scuba gear and bring on the flood (or something along those lines) all will be harmonious.

blasting replacements like only a single man with no real neighbors can do.

<3 this fucken guy

seems that i'm a little less over a breakup than i thought i was now that my former long-term girlfriend is dating again. and despite all of my feminist creds i can't help but feel even more ill-at-ease at the fact that her new partner is female.

You might have the "if a woman becomes a lesbian after being with a man, it's the man's fault" trope lurking somewhere in the back of your mind.

sounds like it's more the basic my ex has moved on and i haven't yet thing.

He said that he was especially unnerved by the fact that her new partner was female.

ya. even though i know it's ridiculous. but anyway that was mostly sweet beautiful drunk talk there, in the best of mental shape i am 98% fine with it and that other 2% will i'm sure be resolved once i manage to direct my annoying physical desires elsewhere.

xp - oh ok, i think i missed that line.

I'm glad you feel better about it now, Merdeyeux.

Sometimes that 2% is the most stubborn part. You'll eventually get past it, but it will hang around and annoy you like a fly for a while.

otm

Hmm. Now, how do I spell schadenfreude again?

poetic justice? or repeat offender?

poetic justice, it might appear. I dont know, just his very vague mutterings and "yes i know dont tell me" is all i have to go on.

I'm suprisingly not gloaty actually, more concerned for him. I'm too nice.

well . . . that's nice of u

Person's gotta really do baaaaad by me before I give them the shrift tbh.

Unless I didn't like them much to start with, then they can sneeze near me and I'll cut a bitch.

never hated on an ex before, but . . .

call me kelis cuz I hate u so much right now

it was five months ago since we called it off

but dude you fucking ripped my heart out on the way out the door

can't believe I still think about this situation every damn day

lame = that I fell so hard for such a selfish dickhead

more lame = me, for still caring about someone I know objectively is not even worth it

and even lamer still = that I'm still this torn up . . . . FIVE MONTHS LATER? seriously, what is my problem?

I've been trying not to blow my cool in public

maybe this thread should be the dumping ground for:

the racist jokes you told when you were really drunk

the way you managed to hustle me to pay for shit (food, tix, shows, booze, movies, everything)

the times you "borrowed" the car and drove across town drunk off your ass like an idiot

your shitty taste in porn / literature / food / TV / crush objects

your lack of any sense of timing

your lack of ambition

your lack of intelligence

your terrible writing

your lack of any discernible talent other than smiling shyly and implying that favors are desired

the way you use people and then bounce

fuck you, dude, for real

fuck you

yes this thread was created w/ the intention of being a dumping ground

pls dump away

and fuck this dude for real he sounds like a dumb shithead

he was, thank god he was never my boyfriend but still . . . what a waste of time/soul/head-space

sounds like a real dickwad

sounds like me

lol

do you have back zits? cuz he did, and man that shit was nasty

do you claim to be "a christian" at strange, random times? cuz he did

are you a lame, selfish dumbass? cuz he was

maybe, no, yes

oh and thanks for getting back in touch after dropping me like a rock for months in order to scam some favors for your band by temporarily pretending to be my "friend" again so that I would pull strings with actual bonafide decent human beings to get yr sorry ass a half decent show through my recommendation, and then you pay me back by being a dick to them and harassing them about trivial crap like the fucking amateur that you are and shall remain- well played! nice one!

he was, thank god he was never my boyfriend but still . . . what a waste of time/soul/head-space

ugh!!!

thanks for losing the power supply for the camcorder i lent you.

thanks for doing jack-shit to promote the show I booked for you.

you cannot expect anyone to think you're a bad-ass while wearing flip-flops

your ponytail looks stupid.

you were the most vanilla guy i have ever been with.

your music is really boring.

i wish i could contribute to this thread, but for the first time, my last breakup has turned into a friendship of awesomeness. like, we're going to Tijuana together type awesomeness.

you could contribute by commenting on my recent post, as you know this guy

oh, well:

- his music is boring and academic, and he thinks it's the most significant thing in the universe
- he treats women like garbage, as evidenced from my friends' experiences with him at lolcollege
- he isn't an interesting or cool enough person to be considered part of the Sh1nk0y0 crew
- he is the epitome of an outdated hippie who doesn't know it.

- you envisioned a platonic ideal of family that was unobtainable, let alone by you and me
- you said stuff like 'should have went'
- you were a yankee fan
- you were a huge dismemberment plan fan despite acknowleging that travis sucks
- our second-biggest argument ever was about whether professional baseball players should be capable of putting down a bunt. you were wrong
- you were my best friend
- you were probably the best thing ever to happen to me no shit

</3

srsly most tearjerking post in, like, ever

Sh1nk0y0

googleproof please!!

- you were a huge dismemberment plan fan despite acknowleging that travis sucks

hey now

dammit the asshole who broke my heart liked dismemberment plan too

note to self: stay *away* from dp fans from now on

*trying not to remember how good the sex was*

tune, forgive my nosiness, but I thought you had er, a very long term dude you were happy with? *confused*

thank god he was never my boyfriend

some couples roll open y'know

yeah that was what I assumed, but was confused nonetheless. Sorry D dont mean to pry :/
