My ex girlfriend was dumped by her ex boyfriend at a suprise party - a 'surprise - I'm moving to Alaska tomorrow to find myself, and all my friends have known for a month, but I told them not to tell you because I knew you'd freak out - party. That's what dating in Boulder was like in the early nineties. Of course, she was crazy too, and yes, I dated her anyway (I was younger and dumber).

Every time I think about the women I've dated, I'm thankful for my wife. There's something to be said for being beautiful and sane - it's very, very sexy. Every breakup is a gift, because it brings you closer to someone who fits you better. Keep up the faith, and don't settle for any of the idiots along the way.

Just my two cents,
Josh

ps-never date a man that appears in a jockey ad wearing a red banana hammock (similar to a man-thong).  Head nodding and grunting were not an issue, but the fact he tried to pick-up on my roomate's ex-rowing partner at a wedding- while still technically my boyfriend......heh, priceless.  such a small world-his bad.

we're still friends......i give him crap about it all the time....but it still sucked at the time.

Man, I thought my last one was pretty bad until I read this thread! Actually come to think of it, his was more just LAME; he's young and didn't have much practice.

FOR THE RECORD, men who tell you you're supposed to look like Barbie, women who make you pay for a trip to Paris to see their other boyfriend, and ANYONE WHO CHEATS... do not deserve to date any of you.

Peace!

Met the girl who was the love of my life in the 8th grade.  We were an "item" through our sophomore year in college - everyone (includng me) assumed we would eventually get married.

She breaks it off because I'm "too nice".  Six months later she wants to get back togther.  We do, but she spends all her time with her basketball and softball teammates.  I ask her as diplomatically as I can if she's gay.  She storms off in anger and doesn't talk to me for a week.  She then comes back and tells me she is gay and admitted that she had only dated me for the last couple of years as a matter of "social convenience".  I take my crushed self-esteem and broken heart and get drunk for about a year or so...

He says to me "there are three kinds of girls, the ones you marry, the ones you date and the ones you f*ck. You're the last kind. I mean, who wants a girl who's smarter than they are?"

Now, I smile, just thinking about it. And since then I will never again ask someone who breaks up with me "why".

Maybe this will help Tyrant feel better....

My senior year in college I met a guy and we fell madly, passionately in lust. He was 10 years older than I was, and he was finishing college after being in the Airfoce. He was still a reservist pararescueman while going to school. We moved in together after 4 months and lived together for 1 year. He was transeferred to the Arizona AF base (Davis-Monthon I think) and when he got transeferred we got engaged. He moved down to AZ ahead of me as I was working and finishing up some prerequisites for grad school, and planning the wedding. About 2 months into our long distance relationship things started to go bad. He didn't call as often, etc. I had a gut feeling but when pressed, he insisted that he did want to get married, and let's keep planning that wedding, so I forged forth. I gave him EVERY opportunity to back out. After Christmas, he was sent on a 6 week tour of duty for some training and I never once heard from him during that time. I was a wreck! At the end of his tour, I called the Commanding Officer and he told me when A-Hole was due to arrive back. I called him the very night he got back, and let's just say when he answered the phone he thought he was talking to someone else, and didn't realize it was me. "When are you coming over?" "I missed you!" When I told him who it was he started stammering and back peddaling like the dog that he is. So needless to say that was the end of our relationship. He just told me to keep planning the wedding, then never called me again!! When we finally did talk that night he got back he told me he wasn't ready to get married, and that he had met someone. (Duh!) So that was that, and three months after that he married the other girl. (He just didn't want to marry ME...thank God!) This all happened the year Alanis Morissette's song "You Oughta Know" was out and it was my anthem for a long time!

So, while it sucked at the time, looking back now, I'm glad it happened.  It woke me up to not being satisfied with coasting through life and not settling for anything ( or anyone ).  If she hadn't dumped me like that, I probably wouldn't be here today doing triathlons.  So I have her to thank for all this.

One door closes, a thousand more open. 



Yep, I agree. If I had actually married A-Hole, I most surely would be divorced and bitter. Then who would want me!? I moved on (it took a long time) and now life is GRAND!

I'm not sure if I fit in here. I started dating my wife senior year of highschool (10 years ago). Before her there was nothing serious, date a girl  a few months here and there. Everything was friendly and mutual. So why did I bother to post? About 5 years ago I got what I feel is worse than a bad break up. It was a stalker. I use to laugh when I heard someone having a stalker, now I realize its not that funny. She was a co-worker, never talked to eachother more than "Hi, how are you doing?". Then the phone calls started, and waiting outside my work on her days off. She claimed we were dating, and told my wife (fiance at the time), that we had gone out for drinks. Well I was with my fiance anytime I wasn't at work. During the few months of this pyscho I made sure to never be alone. I forgot about her, until I saw someone that looked like her yesterday. Now I'm back to looking over my sholder. 

Oh well, thats life. Maybe I'll use her as an incentive to run faster and further.......she's right behind me....aaahhhhhhhhhhh.

Ok here is one for you guys....

Dated a girl for 2+ years in college (fresh and soph so we were young) came home from class one day and caught her riding my roommate (the one that I shared a room with at that). Most screwed up thing about it was after we broke up all of "our friends" became "their friends" ....like I did something wrong ( for the record I didn't even hit anyone). Found out later she was crazy (not typical woman crazy, taking meds crazy), anyway took me a LONG time to trust women again.

dont worry nice guys and nice girls eventually meet, and have a nice relationship.

How true!  My last boyfriend dumped me 2 days after his birthday.  I met Derek exactly one week later.  

Unfortunately, Derek had to go through the torture of hearing me say that me and said-ex were maybe going to get back together for the next 3 months.  Boy, I was mean.

So, Derek has been a 10 year rebound? Cool.

A now ex had started being friends with/dating while I was away for the summer. He invited her to go along with the two of us on outings. it became clear that he was far more interseted in this goth chick that another friend described as "death warmed over". When I asked him why, he said the cruelest words that have ever been said to me:

"I want to settle with someone, not for someone."

I heard a friend say this today:

Thankfully I'm close to the former.

I broke up with my exboyfriend by phone, 2 days after his birthday but I don't think it was a heartless breakup. It's not like he didn't know there were big issues which were making me very unhappy and the timing of the breakup was a result of the timing of his bad behavior. I just told him I was leaving Atlanta at the end of the month.

First, he complained that I broke up on the phone then he whined that I waited until after his birthday to tell him. Since he behaved very poorly during confrontation, I felt no obligation to tell him in person.  Was I supposed to tell him ON his birthday?

Oh, that reminds me. I guess karma really does exist, cause I just remembered this time when *I* heartlessly broke up with someone ...

I dated my college boyfriend on again off again for YEARS, and during an off again stage, I was rebounded with someone else. After about 4 months, I realize I had waaaaaay passed the rebound stage, plus I was toying with the idea of getting back together with college boyfriend (which in hindsight, karma came back and got me for, but still -- doens't make this guy feel any better, I suppose), so I broke it off with the other guy. Unfortunetly, my timing was a bit ... off. The day I chose to break up with him happened to be the week he got laid off, which also happen to be Sept. 12, 2001. His exact quote: "Let me get this straight. I'm debating on whether or not to tell you I love you, I then get laid off, yesterday 3000 people died, including a bunch right down the road [the Pentagon] AND you're breaking up with me????" What was I suppse to say to that? "just kidding"? Nope. So .. yeah, timing bad, but impulse good: he then stalked me for the better half of 6 months; I had to move twice, and get two new telephone numbers just to shake him. Ugh.

But I conceed I was fairly heartless about it. To my credit (I think), I still feel pretty bad about it.

Seriously, though, it's more heartless to drag it out for no reason other than to wait for better timing. Timely honesty, while hard to swallow sometimes, is always better than fake feelings.
