Anyone else find comfort in knowing the person that they are dating

[nefertiti]

It's harder to break than to start, I like to remain friend if that happens.

I've never been able to remain friends...not because the relationships ended bitterly...but because they always have lingering feelings.

And yeah, it's hard to end things. But the way I see it is, eventually it's going to happen and I'm not going to get in the way of them finding someone who is better for them than I am - or in the way of my own happiness and finding someone better for me. Gotta pull your bootstraps up and just do the hard thing sometimes because you're doing no one favors by letting things die a slow death.

LOL@this whole thread.

Men are such silly creatures... Let us just reread the opening post.

Makes ZERO sense.

The guy is happy so who are we to judge?

I know wht you mean, it's impossible to be friends right away that I get... but for solving those lingering feelings, specially for people who live in small towns is better to be able to dialogue it...

i believe in getting rid of her after the new car smell is gone

I agree with RAGE.....

It is nice to have consistent female companionship, and it is easier to stomach problems that may arise once you come to the realization that.... " Wow, I will absolutely NEVER be buying this girl a ring. "

Being "friends" after a breakup is a different story, as the justified cock blocking begins, and frustration follows suit.

I woould know, I just went through a breakup. Its funny how girls still expect you to do the same things for them.

Pay for your dinner? uh no.

Are you new? This is EF, where the petty, mean, narrow minded, and Canadians thrive.

Ok so what you are telling me is that you will delay or even forego a future with a *worthy* woman ('cause unless you are a lowlife cheating piece of shit you are being faithfull to the broad you are fucking just *for now*) because you are too busy getting a steady piece of ass from one that is less than worthy?

Makes a lotta sense to me.

And if you have broken up with said piece of ass (who THOUGHT she was your girlfriend) then why on earth are you having dinner with her?

life is tooo short to dance with ugly women.. point being, if she's not lifetime material.. move on quick..

Marriage is a complicated thing... you will know which woman is the right one when you are ready to put her first and him above yourself.
That doesn't happen overnight...

lol
thanks for all the replies
Bikinimom is ripping me a new A-Hole!!!
I just feel like i get blamed for everything that happens in our relationship
i am very low maintenance low drama
she is the opposite. she loves the drama, cant live without it
i can chill by myself all day long doing my own thing and i'm fine
she is constantly needing someone to go with her here or there
because she doesnt like doing things by herself and then i get in trouble
for not being super excited when she comes back after
being gone for only an hour or 2
i cant sit here and talk smack on EF when she's around because then i'm not spending time with her
but she can sit and shop online for hours and i dnt say a word

I agree with what everyone says about making a clean break but at the moment it just cant
be done. It is only fair to do that for her sake because i knw that our relationship
is not going to be forever (shoot me).

it just infuriates me when she makes me feeel guilty for working out with my training partner and not her or tell me that eating six meals a day is selfish and pyscho.
sorry for the rant, i just feel like im growing up and away from her
i am in a different place now then where i was when we met
im much more drivin, ambitious and focused
girls are crazy
i need a woman
