Master Don Juan
I bang all my exes. It's not like we broke up because of bad sex.
Their hateful behavior is also linked closely to their insatiable need to be "the innocent victim".jafyk said:Jophil, what you've written is pretty sad and I've seen this time and again how a woman professing her undying love and telling you how she doesn't know what she'd do without you. Yet when it's over she treats you like an enemy and it's shocking to see this playout.
.
Yeah when my ex broke up with me, her behavior and demeanor towards me literally took a 180 degree turn. This girl went from telling me:Juando said:I am amazed. It's as if when people leave you they have an operation to remove their heart and substitute a block of ice. I don't get it.
Powerful ammunition, I got the same from the ex- feelings so powerful and so deep that they could melt steel.edger said:"We're meant to be together forever"
"You complete me"
"I want to marry you"
"You are the chosen one for me"
"I want to spend the rest of my life with you"
"We are destined to be together"
"You're my soulmate"
"I will always love you no matter what"
When I think about what happened to me, I say to myself, "if that stuff was sincerly felt and communicated in the moment, then there's no way you could just loose your love for someone. If you loose it, it would only be temporary."Juando said:even if all that stuff is sincerely felt and communicated in the moment, it's completely worthless if the source does not have the maturity to take it home, that is, to back up the words and feelings with actions that resound in the real world.
Women are "in love" with the IDEA of love, not love itself, and certainly NOT unconditional love of a particular person.edger said:Yeah when my ex broke up with me, her behavior and demeanor towards me literally took a 180 degree turn. This girl went from telling me:

Etc. etc. etc.

Completely being and doing the opposite of all that, treating me as nothing more than a friend...and that was what really freaked me the f*ck out. I knew this girl one way with me, and now all of a sudden she was acting a way with me that she had never acted before. It was the worst feeling I have ever felt yet. Worse than severe nausea...and I'm not exaggerating. I can't even describe the feeling, there's no word in the dictionary for it, it was that bad.

People call me a cynical bastard and such, but fukk them, I know the score. They want to pretend and live a fantasy, let them.
After experiencing the same thing you have experienced more than once, I will never again for a second take for granted that a woman "loves" me. She loves the romanticized image of me, as long as i am able to maintain it, but even the most loving, compassionate woman has a switch inside of her that she can flip the SECOND you become dispensable to her.
Nobody should ever take social scientists seriously. This statement is proof.mrRuckus said:I don't get how people say women mature faster when emotionally that part of their brain never finishes developing.
Hey edger,edger said:I just don't understand it, I'm at a loss. The only real conclusion I could come to, is that my ex never really loved me, especially the way she said she did. This girl "played" me in that respect...but it wasn't like she played me because I was naive or anything. In the beginning, I would take her words and poems professing her degree of love for me with a grain of salt...but she kept reiterrating it and reiterrating it and reiterating it, over and over, to the point where I finally said, "I believe this girl, I truly believe she really does love me to this degree". This girl drilled it into my f*ckin' head on a regular basis, to the point where it literally was "programmed" into me. And that's when I began to buy into the whole "soulmate" thing. And then BAM!..she left me hanging...hanging as if I was literally on a ledge of a 30 story building...I was just left to hang and die. I pleaded with her and tried to reconcile the best I could, as I felt guilt(put forth by her), but my efforts were so useless...so useless man. It was sad, and it still is sad. All I can say in life, is that, "I gave my heart away once...I can never do it again"(George, my old musician buddy, I quote you on that)...forever till my last day spent on earth, I can never do it again...and that is no exaggeration. My ex brought me a lot of happiness(not that I wasn't happy to begin with, but she magnified that happiness to a greater degree)...that time with her is forever irreplaceable. That is the legacy I leave behind. I hope everything comes together and works out for you in this life.

Men are much more loyal. Men are more compassionate. Men feel GUILT when they have wronged someone.
I dunno....my theory is that it's hardwired into the female psyche to be able to quickly sever emotional ties with a man when he no longer serves her purposes. A necessary function that allows her to quickly secure another source of intimacy/provisioning/etc.. Basically a survival mechanism, if you will.
I wasn't serious.jophil28 said:Nobody should ever take social scientists seriously. This statement is proof.
I didn't mean to imply that i won't or haven't. It's just something hard for me to do. I'm not talking about some one month fling either. That's easy to do.DonS said:That is why the poster who said he is not able to "dump" a girl needs to wake up to reality. The moment you've decided she isn't up to par, YOU HAVE TO DUMP HER QUICKLY AND CLEANLY.
Not doing so destroys your self-worth, and on top of that when SHE dumps YOU it's quite possibly the worst feeling in the world. Nothing worse than being dumped by a chick that YOU KNOW YOU SHOULD HAVE DUMPED.DonS said:That is why the poster who said he is not able to "dump" a girl needs to wake up to reality. The moment you've decided she isn't up to par, YOU HAVE TO DUMP HER QUICKLY AND CLEANLY. Why is this so important? Because not doing so destroys your self-worth. Internally, you've decided that you are such a loser that you are going to hang onto someone who doesn't treat you right. This creates a negative feedback loop causing the viscious cycle of codependency and passive aggressive behavior. FK all that; life is far too short. She's not up to your standards, move on. Period. Even if you don't have another lined up or you enter a dry spell, at least you will respect yourself; and that is the true key to happiness.
