The_Gabe

Mine was 13 months in the making.

I really want to hear this story

Cause her parents went to sleep and its a rare occasion when only she is home.

Fellow Earthicans I come bearing news. While I did not yell bazinga, I did kinda whisper it loud enough so it could be heard as we were shushing so her parents wouldn't hear us. To that I say close enough. I also watched Frozen and it was actually pretty cute. End of transmission.

I probably wouldn't do that unless you know for a fact that whoever you are boning would 100% find it funny. I know my gf would find it funny

Yeah but we passed a year of dating and teenagers get really horny. Adding to the fact that we do long distance, you can only imagine the hormones. Neither regret it, and we used it as a further sign of commitment.

I just remembered I forgot to yell bazinga. I'll do it next time to regain my honor.

But I dun wannit back :(

Haha.

Just lost something I won't be getting back :)

And then you die.

I dont think anyone really had it shoved down their throat. Maybe The_Gabe with his ldr thing but I do remember saying that breaking-up isn't necessary if your still happy but to think about that advice and act on it if your not with the situation anymore. I have personally known many guys who are in that situation and regret it hardcore when the ldr begins to fail and then get mad at everyone around them for not telling them this stuff which is why I go out of my way to say that breaking up is an option And honestly before anyone gets mad at me for being one of the biggest posters for #teambreakup I do try and filter my posts with "what would dr drew say" and for most of these situations regarding people in their early 20's who aren't married or have kids that are having big problems that they do not like on a daily basis they get a very quick "its time to break up" usually followed by seek some therapy if they think its okay to put up with some rather bad stuff (such as abuse). The thing is, I've been an outsider viewing in on other's relationships for a long time. I use that experience to my advantage not to make the mistakes others have made.

Which is why I said you should physically leave the building and go home if you are around your gf and her friends when they are high. If you were in America I would tell you to calm down and get over it, but according to you getting caught smoking in your country is extremely dangerous which is why I give this advice. "Hey TIF I have this problem with the person or situation regarding the person I'm dating, what should I do to fix it. Oh yeah did I mention I really don't like the situation I'm in and its not going to change in the forseeable future." Pretty much the main reason why half the advice given is break up and move on. Exactly this. People with healthy relationships have no need to post in this thread asking for advice. Ha but when I posted in this thread as an update a few months back and wasn't seeking any advice i was still told I should break up >_>

I can barely drink 1 beer ;-; I prefer vodka and wine.

You have to remember that break up is the advice given for every situation in this thread.

But ultimately, that's just you. I don't like the chase.I doubt that I'm the only one in the world who enjoys the chase. I'm not saying you are. I'm saying that it is not something I enjoy. Also, I'm an undergrad at a university with 50,000 students.

But ultimately, that's just you. I don't like the chase.

This almost sounds like the glass half full/empty argument though. I could live for the moment or I could worry about the relationship in the future. I know you're all about poly relationships Muggie, but are you saying that all monogamous relationships are doomed? Fun fact: A study shows that women are the happiest when men work about 50 hours a week. Another fun fact: Just because one woman [bleep]es at a certain aspect doesn't mean all other will. I understand that I come off as ignorant, but in the long run, truthfully anything can happen. I like that I don't know what's going to happen. It'd make life boring.

But according to statistics, I passed the period where long distance relationships have the highest break up chances. In fact, at this point, relationships that are not long distance have higher chances of breaking up than those who are in long distance relationships.

How? >_>

Being a pessimist isn't always the solution. Just like playing only defensive soccer doesn't score you any goals. I dunno, I just think there is a balance to not put so much trust and investment in a relationship, especially if it's LDR, but on the flip side, relationships need both of those things to last, so that advice can only go so far. That's not being pessimistic, that's being realistic. When it comes to LDRs (or any sort of relationship for that matter, but LDRs especially), you must consider the opportunity cost of it. As far as Gabe goes, keep in mind that he's still in the irrationally optimistic Disney stage of the relationship and will probably remain that way for at least the next six months or so :P I decided to dig this post up from June 26 which was page 771 just to give an update to the relationship. Update: Everything in the relationship is going wonderful. We text everyday and Skype every few days. We hit our 1 year anniversary today. I saw her for Thanksgiving, Winter break, and I will see her in 3 weeks for Spring break and then Summer break. It's been 7 months since you posted this Muggie. Things are working out strongly.

One year anniversary with my girl today :D

So the vet said my dog has cancer...

Just found out from my parents that my dog might have to be put down since he's being peeing blood the last few days. They're taking him to the vet but I will assume the worst.
