Love and Relationships

[Eclectic Dreck]

I'm not terribly good at relationships. There was this one girl who meant the world to me. It ended badly as such stories tend to unless contained in a book of fairy tales. I wanted to hate her for it, I really did. But in the end I can't. I went off to fight a war at 21. How could I expect her to wait for me at that age with so much life left to live?

I've dated many women since (and slept with many more than that) but it all seems so meaningless and hollow. It's like I'm doing it because I should. Because perhaps I don't like being without a female companion.

I'm currently seeing this girl. She's great in every way except for one major one. I rarely get through to her on her phone. It's really difficult to organize a date with her and she cancels a lot of our dates because of last minute things. I'm not sure whether or not she is blowing me off (it certainly feels that way sometimes) but to be honest; when we are actually together everything is great and she wants to see me again. I'm confused. Anyway...

I believe that love is the most illusionary of emotions. It is just friendship warped by the powers of sexual attraction (have you ever heard of a straight man falling in love with another man? Non-physical but still non-platonic love, of course). I particularly detest the whole "Power of Love" thing, mainly because I believe ambition is the most powerful emotion.

Hate. Hate is the most powerful emotion. It can't be blunted by common sense like love can.

Whatever floats your boat. Ambition is the most important, however. It is the source of all human achievements.

When I'm drunk, I'm in love with everybody!

Except for YOU, Adrian.

I havnet had much experience but I think I'm just a little too cold hearted for relationships
I don't know why but I really hate romatic crap

Never had one. When you're 5'6 in Sweden and a male at that. You're pretty much fucked. You'll most of the time be outright ignored by the opposite sex.

Best: My first kiss
Worst: Said girl basically ignoring me after kiss and the not even having the decentcy to tell she didn't like me anymore.

Best moment: none.
Worst moment: (I used to be a fat kid with no friends, now I'm not fat) when I was about 7 my first kinda Girlfriend told me she was just using me to get back at her american boyfriend then she dumped me. looking back on it now we were only 7 and didn't truly care about each other, but she was the first person who ever smiled at me and it made me feel good and now I always think of that when I talk to girls and I get sad. (I suck)

Why do these threads keep popping up today?

Again, I apologize to EVERYONE who has seen these threads before, sorry, it was just on my mind. If anyone here doesn't like it then go find another thread and stop telling me about it.
I'm almost beginning to wish I hadn't started this, with how depressed everyone seems about the subject. What a downer...

 

[Zaverexus]

I don't know how you expect people not to be bitter about this when people not only wipe our faces in the whole "relationships are so awesome; you really must try them" @#!*% , but the one place where we should be able to expect that we might be able to get away from all of that is polluted with this lot of dross.

Also, from my experiences, infatuation - rather than the more physical aspects of attraction - is a nightmarish, malefic, sickening, terrifying emotion which profoundly frightens me beyond any other emotion. Do you really think I want to be reminded of that?

Seriously!? If you guys hate this so much then find another thread for Pessimistic Soulless Robots who Complain about the Falsity of Love and bemoan life to your shriveled hearts' content. I give up.

I'm sure people will call me a dumbass for this, but I remember when I knew I loved my g/f. We were having hot chocolate at a cafe, I went up and got them. One had much more cream and marshmallows then the other. That is the one I gave to her.

Simple as that.

Best moment? None
Worst moment? Asked someone out got rejected.
I had a big crush, and pussied out, on asking out.

Socially inept etc etc.

Yea anyway.

Happy for you people to have enjoyed some form of relationship.

In the same boat, pussied out for about 3 months on the 2nd girl I liked because the first one laughed in my face when I asked her.

Ironic thing is, she actually liked me, but met another boy and fell for him instead, so when I asked her, she said no, and 3 weeks later she was her first relationship with this other boy, and as gone as far as completely blanking me as much as possible

Eh, lifes great like that.
