Sam

I'm not being an emotional tampon. She's screwed me around, and to be honest, she isn't worth my conversation.

She sounds like any other stupid 16-year old girl. Even, if she's actually older. I mean, you weren't being very conversational, but she clearly didn't care about the fact that you were in pain or cared about her feelings. She just cared that you "told her how she felt". Which, is in fact a bad thing to do, however in this particular situation was a completely irrelevant because you merely said that you felt like she felt like not talking. All kinds of stupid up in that converstion. Good riddance to her mate. Time to find your self a girl that's worth the effort. she's actually 15 still. edit: i removed her from MSN, Facebook and from my phone - I signed on to MSN this morning, and I noticed she tried to re-add me. I declined - is that the right thing to do?

She broke up with me tonight. She's [bleep]ed me around.

No, it's on the 30th.

The funny thing is, she said "leave me alone, and I mean it" - 1. She's come back to me everytime I seem to be more happy without her. 2. She's played upon my weakness - that weakness is that I give much more of a crap than she EVER did. I think she's just adopted the mentality of "if I can't have him, no one else can". She obviously doesn't give a crap about my feelings either - i've been ill for 5 weeks, and I told her what i was ill with, and the response I get is "so?". Immature.

Goddamnit. You guys were right. I'm going to leave her alone, she's immature and she doesn't know what she wants. this is where it seemed to go wrong today; [spoiler=the convo] Sam says: (19:39:09) we're both not really in the mood to talk right now really Ellen says: (19:39:56) you cant say what i am in the mood for and what im not Sam says: (19:40:22) ok, sorry. Ellen says: (19:41:26) what your annoyed at me because i can say what mood im in Sam says: (19:41:39) no Ellen says: (19:41:45) well it looks like it, Sam says: (19:42:00) i've got a chest infection Sam says: (19:42:04) i have a splitting headache Ellen says: (19:42:04) so Sam says: (19:42:09) my pelvis hurt Sam says: (19:42:13) i have backache Sam says: (19:42:23) and i came on msn to talk to you Ellen says: (19:42:23) that doesnt mean you can say what mood I am in .. Ellen says: (19:42:39) I am not YOU Sam says: (19:43:03) ok, i apologise Sam says: (19:43:13) i've got dinner now Ellen says: (19:43:13) bit late really Ellen says: (19:43:23) whatever Sam says: (19:43:42) chat soon xxxx then she said this to me on facebook; [spoiler=the convo] Ellen You can't tell me how I am feeling sam, you just can't do that. AND THEN you send loads of kisses as if nothing has happened!!! Sam you're right, I can't - you didn't really seem in the mood to talk and I felt as though it was me who was causing that. I'm sorry Ellen you shouldnt seem anything - i can't believe you would pretend as if nothing had happened though. who the [bleep] would do that!? Ellen oh wait, you. Ellen sam it didnt work before, it isn't working now - do you really think its going to work in the future. Because it don't think it will. Sam we're better off as friends. i don't really care what your mood is at the moment and you can't blame it on that- not again. Leave me alone, Sam & I mean it this time. I spent £90 to go to prom with her, yesterday. She's [bleep]ed me around, i don't know why I let this happen to myself.

Unfortunate, though it serves as the perfect lesson against drink-driving.

I tried once, and it just resulted me scratching my armpits like an idiot from the irritation. PoorLepRecon is right - stop making gigantic quote pyramids - you all have personal opinion, put it forward!

That'd be how to do it. Be assertive and confident, but don't go beyond that, it'll make you come across as an arrogant [puncture]. Just remember there's a thin line between the two and you'll be fine. Also, just be aware she might use you again. If she does, end it right then and there. I've made her understand that, I did make it clear that I wouldn't hesitate to drop her if she starts using me. I have a bad feeling about this :s As long as you're [both] happy, then nothing's wrong I've been warned - if it goes wrong and I get upset, the only person I can blame is myself.

I got back together with Ellen. She asked me to be FWB and I basically said "[bleep] that, if you want to hold my hand, or kiss me, or hug me, you need to be in a relationship with me", and surprisingly, she said yes. I also said to her "I'm going to be blunt, don't mess around with me, I won't put up with it". It goes to show that putting your foot down gets you places. I stopped being a wuss and got results.

It's a very interesting technology, though I don't think it will become the norm for additive manufacturing, and printing in general.

That's so weird. Just seems like a bit of a waste of time to be honest.

Love the last shot of the lily. Great clarity and composition.

Yeah, it's fair. If she wants to continue I need to put my foot down and demand no more [cabbage].

Ellen wants to meet up tomorrow. She said she'd rather talk to me in person rather than online / text.

killjoy.

Opinions on these?

That's unfortunate. Today I'm just gonna chill, and rest. I'm still ill! ):

By continuing to talk to her, if she's still figuring out her feelings for you, then you won't be helping. If you've always talked, even a few days after your breakup, you're just being an emotional tampon. It sounds blunt, but if you're talking frequently then she can use you as an emotional cushion, which you don't need to be, seeing as you're single.
