Well guys, on the exact 9 month anniversary of our first kiss, I ended my relationship today.
In the end we had perhaps the most remarkable game of cat and mouse ever played. I refused to budge. But a word of warning, just before the end I endured five sh!t tests in a row - the random no contact from her for a week test, the see if you'll change to a lunch date test, the see if I can have a curfew on our dinner date test, the "I'm in love with someone else" (her exact words) test, and finally the "I have to reschedule at the last minute" test.
I never cracked.
Granted, I had cancelled 5 straight dates in the last 10 days, so she might have been trying to get to me.
When she said she was in love I said "I'm so happy for you. I wish you all the best" and she said "Wait, aren't we still going out today?" She suddenly started gushing with romance, which had been mysteriously absent the past weeks. She admitted he is her age and they haven't had sex yet and the romance is only 7 days old. But then she tried to delay our date by a couple hours and I said goodbye.
In the end I went with my favorite final line when a girl leaves you: "I'm sorry to realize that you don't love me anymore, but you know I always loved you".
That was perhaps the best 9 months of my life. I have no regrets. But I must credit Listen to Olly, it looks like my girl left me for a guy her own age who lives in a (albeit non-frat) house with 5 people who she knew since age 12.
Ironically, yesterday I told her that she had some unresolved high school issues she needed to iron out, and that she needed someone her own age. We did both agree today that with her being 21 our only hope is that she dates other guys but calls me in a year and says she misses me.
Ok guys, I'll take my lumps now.
