So wait your plan is to pretend to be somebody else while you are around her? That doesnt seem like a very good plan to me. Its better to act like yourself and if she doesnt like that then forget about her.
I started acting proper and THAT wasn't me. I AM a military hardass.
No you're not... you're in JROTC... YOU ARE NOT IN THE GODDAMN MILITARY, you're only half assed pretending to be... stop acting like you're some kind-of badass before you act like a badass to the wrong person and they smack the shit out of and make you feel like a little *****.
Sorry, whats JROTC?

Go for it if you really want to but you broke up before, probably for some sort of reason so I wouldn't be surprised if that issue re-surfaced, though it may give you a chance to identify and compromise over it.

Or you know have a scream-fight and break up again. Fingers crossed for the first one.

I think everything you've said in this thread proves you shouldn't be in a relationship at all.

Especially "JROTC has a reputation to uphold" in conjunction with "I really am a military hardass, no really."

You did not just say that... Go sit in the corner, re-read the part of my post that applies here and think about what you've done!
I <3 you with all my... errr... heart. XDDD

On topic:
Jesus, cut the kid some slack. It's obvious he's in high school (Junior at best I guess). He's still wearing personas like others do pants and changing them regularly (at least, I fucking hope so... his pants that is)
Go at her with all your military hardassness (hardassdom? hardassment?) and stick with her she really sounds like a keeper, especially if you keep up your military fanboyism, go to actual service instead of fanclub, serve in a real warzone and return with PTSD. I'm betting my left ass cheek that she will be your emotional stronghold and won't flee with the sane guy next door she's been doinking silly during your absence.

Dude, in all seriousness, you didn't connect with her on any level because you were acting one way or the other. Honestly, I think she saw through that, consciously or not. If you still have hots for her, fire away but try it with neither the military shtick nor the overly proper way. I (sincerely) hope you're more than just one thing.

She broke up with you, then regretted it.
She liked you more when you were someone else.

In short, why would you want to?
And yes, it will probably crash and burn, unless she wants to be with your normal self, but if she wants the macho guy, then its just gonna repeat.

Dick in this relationship? You.

Leave her alone, she did nothing wrong if she broke up with you because you stopped faking your personality around her(something which you shouldn't have done to begin with).

I take proposals of marriage with chocolate and muffins

I personally like hardassdom, I think that should be a word from now on....

Don't. There is a reason you broke up in the first place, and soon enough you will realize it again, and just have to go back through it all again. Also, it lasted a month. If you couldn't make it a month with her the first time, it's just not worth it.

Maybe Megawat can get in on this...

OT: If you want to get back with her, go for it. If it don't work out, at least you won't mope around wondering "what-if?".

Many Lol's to this, and yes, I concur. A worthwhile relationship will not come out of this. At best, a short-term, melodramatic relationship might come out this. But the glamour of attention and drama brought on by the combination of two teenagers taking on OC-esque character types will get boring pretty fast, if my memory serves.

Ok i'll be nicer now, cos I was in high school too once. Onto your personal development: No one actually respects the military self-proclaimed 'badass' kid who screams 'BOO-YAH!' and beats his chest like an epileptic gorilla at the end of every other sentence. That kind of behaviour gets one of four responses:

a)"Christ... not this guy again. Quick, everyone look busy!"

b)"You have got to be kidding..." ridicule ensues

c)"I'm gonna kick that punks ass" Ass kicking may or may not ensue, but eventually it definately will if you tick off enough people, since there's always a crazier nutter or bigger gang than you, somewhere

d)"Right on dude! For I also am enjoying telling myself how badass I am!" (This one doesn't really count since it's probably delusional.


By all means take pride in your Army Cadets club by paying attention, trying your best and making the most of what they can teach you (and as a side-line, I'm genuinely pleased for you if youv'e found something you love to do in your free time). Just try to avoid the over-compensating machismo effect some of these clubs can have. You'll only cringe about it when you're older.

Get on with the tasks put in front of you to develop useful skills and discipline and let that be it's own reward. Peope respect do'ers not talkers. Leave the wannabe showboating to the wannabe's.

(P.s. low-blowing your friend because they outwitted you in some banter does not count as doing. It counts as being an emotionally stunted child. Just laugh it off)

Oh also: 'Hardasses' aren't real, it's just a name used to describe one of two type of people: There are excessively destructive people, who will sacrifice literally everything. possibly including their's and their families' lives just to be aggressive, confrontational and destructive because they think it represents power and accomplishment (Charles Bronson likely fits this category. He wasted a lot of time in solitary). Basically a rebel without a cause (which is exactly that i.e. pointless). Then there are people who are incredibly determined to accomplish something because it is important to them for specific reasons. The SAS (I'm more familiar with British military) likely fit this description. I recommend you try to direct yourself to the latter. It's much more rewarding, you probably won't wind up in prison for it, you'll lose any need to keep up an image because you'll gain genuine confidence and it might even make you some money!

You don't. They're an ex for a reason.

No seriously, "a second try" in relationship only works in movies. Real life? Chances are you're going to break up again, because of the same thing you broke up the first time. People don't magically change.
