RELATIONSHIPS SUCK

[basscooker]

go to the wedding, with a date (preferably an older, prettier woman). be all smiles and laughs. introduce the date by name only. avoid the topic of whether or not your in a relationship with her. don't talk directly to the ex (but don't be rude, if she bombards you with her presence, just say "hi" and move on). skip the reception, but leave an envelope with a couple c-notes, and a card (for the couple, of course), with the mom before you leave the church. duck out quietly but don't sneak out. you've shown the ex's family you care about them and like them. you have not shown any disrespect to anybody, yet most likely irked the s*** out of the ex and have her second guessing her choices. go to nearby bar. get date blind-drunk and enjoy generously. repeat.

I just don't understand how they love you one week, and not the next.

It's because she has the brain of a two-year old.

Wear a gorilla suit.

How mature I actually kind of like it though. I am a big gorilla suit fan.
I say go to the wedding if you want but don't go with and attitude that you have something to prove becuase you really don't. It will be awkward but just let it be that way and try and be yourself. Let your ex be who she is, if you can move on you can be free from this.

Definitely - not interested in a hit and run, even though everyone says I should be at my age.

I'm in the same boat, dude. Being a little younger (20) and with my girl for 3 years, it just seems like we've really grown apart. She said things to me yesterday that I never wanted to hear her say (just about the relationship) and I'm really worried that things will be over with us soon, but I'm really trying to make things work.

I'm not really interested in just sex at this point, I felt like early on we had a true emotional connection and if I'm going to be looking for something it'll be that.

It's just really nice to hear the perspective of some of the older (sorry!) guys here who have really been in the same boat.

Thanks to all you TB family, you really helped. I'm feeling better, just different not having someone to hang with - but friends and family have been keeping me busy - it seems like the cheating part makes them feel bad!

Ex and her mom both told me they still want to go to the brothers wedding in April. I really liked the brother and his fiancé, and really liked her family, but I don't want to see my ex.

Well if you had taken my advice and immediately began tapping hot asian girls, you wouldn't be having this problem.

Just sayin'

My ex before this one was Asian. The sex was good, but she wasn't that nice.

If you're going to judge a whole group of women by one example, you're going to be out of options in a hurry.

Do not go to the wedding. Not unless you sharpie 'chump' on your forehead.

 

[Eric Perry]

...most of TB are pretty much man-whores. Beware of Eric Perry - watch out boy, he'll chew you up.

I'm offended!

 

[MatticusMania]

Can one be offended by the truth? I guess so...

 

[NickBEADG]

I'm not a man whore, I'm stuck in a relationpoopie lol.

 

[Bloodhammer]

I'm honored!

Fixed.

 

[Eric Perry]

Fixed.

Yeah, that's probably more accurate

 

[bassinplace]

I would not go to the wedding unless you really don't care at all. And if you don't care anymore, then what's the point of going? It's a closed chapter and that's how you should let it remain.
