[Sanguinedragon]

[generalvash]

Just coming out of borderline depression/alcoholism myself after being dumped 6 months ago by my girlfriend of 3 years. Personally, I think I might be seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, met this nice girl at a convention who seems really interested in me.

Been with my wife for 8 years now so i'm very happy.

My first and only relationship will be going on for 5 months tomorrow (yay ) and it's a really excellent relationship. My girlfriend is really committed to me and wants to make me happy and I want to do the same to her. She was shy at first and didn't get her feelings together till after the first month but she got past that and now we have a relationship that's guaranteed to last. I got really, really, really lucky o.o

Might I ask how old you are? Everyone's first relationship usually seems ideal, until something goes wrong; not that I'm trying to jinx you or anything, I have known of ONE relationship where it was their first and things worked out past a year or so, not to sound jaded or anything . . .

I am 17 and I can perfectly understand why you'd doubt that it will last. But I can honestly say, without just trying to be hopeful, that I see this working for the long run. From the get go, we both wanted a long term relationship and we really don't have problems with each other, even little ones are almost not there at all. It just helps a lot to go into the relationship thinking like that. I wouldn't blame you at all for still doubting but it's not just me being optimistic, it's a realistic assumption and my best friend (who's an expert at this sort of thing because she can honestly say she's never been wrong about this stuff) agrees it will last.

I certainly understand where your coming from but from where I'm standing I'm 100% certain it's going to be just fine

Been in a relationship nearly 2 years now. We have a few little ups and downs, but generally we're quite happy together and I think it should last ^^

Ok, again, best of luck to you. It's just that in my experience the first person you date is rarely the one you spend your life with. Best of luck to you in fact, it's just that after a while the honeymoon phase of the relationship is over and the two normally begin to see problems with the other. God damn, I feel bad for even sounding like I'm trying to come across as casting doubt onto someone who is young and hopeful. I guess what I'm really trying to say is, more power to you, good luck, and just know that if anything does go wrong there are always more fish in the sea.

Thanks, don't worry, your not putting a damper on my spirits or anything. I can tell your not trying to fill me with doubt or anything and your opinion is perfectly reasonable. Obviously I'm sure about it and I think it's best to have your hopes high so that you see that as possible. Sure, much more disappointment if it fails but I really cannot fathom that happening. But again, I see your point and thanks for the encouragement

Well, good luck to you (I presume) sir. If there's anything else I feel that I must inform you of it is this: The longer a relationship progresses the worse it feels when things fall through. Whatever you do, just try to make sure there is something there to catch you if such a thing should arise. Speaking from experience, I have never been so low as the situation I described before replying to your post. Above all else, what friends you have, make sure you keep them close, and again, best of luck to you.

I'm in the unenviable position of being hopelessly in love with a girl who fits into my idea of perfect, who is also in a relationship that she isn't totally happy with, but there's no way I'm rocking that boat, dude has these crazy eyes.......

You have no idea how happy I am to see that picture right now! Thanks for the support!

Ermm... I hate to burst your bubble, but that pic isn't an endeering one. It's 'correct' usage is when You're rambling on and I honestly don't give a shit, but when you look for a response I basically nod and say, "cool story bro," cause I have no idea what you said because I don't care...

Basically it's TLR [http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/cool-story-bro]

On the plus side it's good that you got out a relationship that was sinking, I've had a few bad trips on that boat. Happy with my current GF of 5 years tho. Everyone shoul dbe happy with who they are and what they do, especially in a relationship.

 

[Tjoubou]

Still single like always. Don't really care. I put no effort into trying to get into a relationship anyway. Also I am bad with talking to people.

This!

 

[ruben6f]

I am single and don't plan on getting a girl soon, every girl here is an idiot.

 

[k-ossuburb]

I'm not too happy with my girlfriend right now. She's still in bed and we were supposed to go shopping for food an hour ago. >:[

I don't care who's turn it is, she's cleaning the bathroom tonight.

 

[SckizoBoy]

My girlfriend died.
I've been in a fair few relationships so far, and I've always been able to move on easily.
But she was taken from me before we could have some kind of 'conclusion'.
No break-up, not even any fights; we got along great.
Then she's just gone.
I feel empty inside even a year and three months later.

Shit... eight years on and I still feel that pain. However...

She would want you to be happy. Take as much time as you need before trying to meet someone new. You can always love her and still make things work with another girl. I have a couple young widow friends and it's hard to see them going through this. One has married since that loss. She always says that the pain never really goes away but you can and should love again.

This ^^ is very true. 'Remember her, and smile.' Because you can bet she'll be smiling in your memory.

And chances are you will remain in love with your ex for years, until you get a new one. New GF and you wont remember the last ones name within a few months.

Nnnnnn... one new gf, a one month fuck-buddy and about three years, her living with me for about four months and the amount of crap we've been through... ugh... but yeah, I kinda think I need a new woman in my life just to show me that there're different ones out there. I 'know', but I don't know if you get what I mean... (though I have a feeling that if I described her I will be greeted with a wall of '0_0')

I hear ya. It sucks, but I just learned to try and move on, it's not worth thinkin about, even though it's soooo so hard.

Unfortunately, I thought (and still do) that she was 'the one' for me and I've spent much of the last three years wondering if one decision was made at the wrong time... I've tried (that was difficult) but am yet to move on (which is even more difficult).

Having cool,teasing conversations with 10 girls right now.Rule of the thumb is I'll have sex with 1 tonight and a relationship with another one unless I drop in her friend zone.So yeah carpe diem,baby.Also 11 months isn't that much despite what people think.I had a 3 year long relationship with the love of my life and suddenly we fell apart after the prom because she wanted to "live a little".Apparently living didn't include me.
