Have you seen this movie before?
OP: makes post thats obvious to everybody that he is caught up with a girl thats low quality or he's in a hopeless situation
Forum: Lots of good advice
OP: Vows to follow advice, also claims that he's not that into the girl but she's hot/fun/really into OP... etc etc
Forum: More good advice with more detail just in case OP didn't get the first time
OP: Completely ignores advice! post about girl some more and how he's still in control
Rinse&Repeat a few times....thread now several pages long...
Forum: some posters are now seeing the light but try to salvage anyway... new posters (to thread) offer variations of same advice. some argue with each other. others just post to take the piss (British phrase... i'm not British... used correctly?) still other go tough love and call op out in the harshest manner possible (my personal preference) just hoping to jolt OP off this train wreck path
OP: Ignores all but the new posters, and only respond to those offering enabling advice. Alternatively agree with all advice in a dismissive way, and only responds to those enabling posters
Alternatively calls anybody disagreeing with him haters...
2.OP: never post again or for a very long time... unlike option 1. this poster knows what he's gone against all thats holy and is ashamed. at least he has some dignity if not balls
3.OP: Comes back, tells heart wrenching tale... says how everyone was right and vows he's learned his lesson... but whole forum can tell he's still hoping or it will take very little for the girl to get him back again
4.OP: gets it and moves on. becomes an upstanding member or forum
The Hijack: get in that thread and post random 5hit! and carry on completely unrelated conversations.
