Get rid of a girlfriend that lives with you?

you seem too excited about not having to tell her, which leads me to believe that you don't really want her gone. You would rather live in your claimed agony than fess up and tell her she needs to live her own life, and stop mooching off of you. Why do you think she doesn't have a job yet? CAUSE YOU'RE A BABY, and pay for her way. You are like her sugar dady. Shes using you as a home, as income, as a father figure, as.. well whatever else you guys do. Good God man! Just tell her, if I lived near you I would go over there and start the conversation for you! Stop denying this and go do it. You have to clean your wounds sometime or they are never going to heal!

GOD!
A little harsh on me wouldn't you say?
When the timing is right ,I will tell her but not till then.
I just don't want it to come out while I'm mad at her or for any other reason knowing that I will say it very wrong!
I think this one is all about the timing.
Matt;)
 
ok if you don't want to sit down and have a talk, which would be a better way of going about it... You could ask her every so often how the apt search is going. You could also assist her by finding stuff in the paper "Hey look this place is only $400/mo".
good luck bro
 
Well...I finally did it!

I finally did it!On Fri. we were over at a friends house and she got real nasty with me for no reason while we were playing cards and I started to say something right then and there.But I stopped,restrained myself until the proper time.I waited until we got home and then I asked where do you see yourself in 6 months?I said that I didn't see myself with you.She really went off at that time!I told her that I cared for her but that I just didn't see it working out and that I'm not in love with you and prob never will be.She didn't like to hear that too much.But on Sat she went and found a place to stay of her own and has started packing her things to start moving today.I tried to explain to her that I wasn't mad at her but rather that we were just not meant to be.I don't think she really understood this concept.

Well all in all ,it looks like I can try to start sorting my life back out to what I know as "NORMAL".I really hope that I have done the right thing?
Matt:)

Trust me ,I never stopped working on the car!The earth's rotation could stop and I would still be modding the ride!
It's like a dis-order,the Doc's should classify it!
I.N.T.M.M.C.
Intense Need To Mod My Car!

It's not pretty and it is far from over,I just hope she doesn't do something stupid like mess with my ride!
That would mean death to her!

I only read the first page so if things are resolved just ignore this. But Matt with the whole communication thing, if you find yourself "claming up" when you sit down to talk with her just do this. Before you talk, write everything you want to say down, and keep the paper with you as you talk. Try not to look at it, but if you have to read it as you wrote it. May look a little silly but it works, and you will be able to say what you need to.

Second, I don't want to sound like an ass but if she has no motivation to get a job or a stable one and is, for lack of a better word, getting in your way you should move on without her. You don't want to be carring a lot of dead weight with you, its not smart.

Third and last, do it as quick as you can. I don't know how you are with kids, but myself I like kids. My little brother and I get a long great. I met a girl that had a 2 year old herself and she infact was 22, kinda wierd, anyways she didn't seem to have any motivation in life so I had to let her go while it was still early. I am one that gets attached to kids, and her son was starting to get attached to me, he called me dad once, scared the hell out of me.

Anyways, what I am saying is do what it takes, if it means writing it down do it.
 
Thank all for the best wises!

I really hope all this works out for the better and hopefully that I didn't create an enemy in the process.She really is a good girl,but just not for me!
Matt;)
 
WOO HOOOO!!!! You did it!!! Congratulations. Just remember that you ARE better off without her, and that in time she will realize what you did was for the best. Now go out and have some fun damnit!!!
 
Even if she becomes an enemy, her loss..

It's tough, but I broke it off with some one 2 years ago, and it was the worst thing in the world, it affected everything, I ended partially loosing my job because of what it did to my life (they hated aggressive motivated people too..).

I hurt like hell, but now that I look back on it, was the best learning experience in my life, I know better what I want in some one, and out of my life, and where it;s possibly gonna go.

No one is worth the aggrivation, no one, because it destroys you..

So congrats, looks like you have some friends here that stand behind you, and are there, which is really helpful too..


NEXT!!!!!
 
Argggghhhh!!!!

What the hell is happening?
I dont get it?
I get rid of the gilrfriend to make my life easier and yesterday was the first day she was gone ,but I really wasn't right!
I was fine all day yesterday until I got home and saw that she had taken some of her stuff.I knew she was leaving and saw her stuff packed ,but it really didn't hit me till I got home!I really wasn't right in the head last night.It was one of those you have a million thoughts going through your head all at once but you cannot graspe a single one to think about it by itself.I really could not focus or concentrate on anything last night.I tried really hard to get some things done but continually cought myself actually thinking of nothing at all.
I thiought if I went to bed it would be better this morning ,but NO!WTF!
I don't get it?
Why am I so un focused and not able to concentrate?I really don't even feel that I can perform at work today.I never ever call off or leave work and I am really cosidering taking the rest of the day as a personal day to try to get my thoughts back in order and get myself straightened out.
God ,I am surprised I typed this much without forgetting where I am.
Does anyone out there Know what I am talking bout when I say that my brain s mush right now and no matter how hard I try to do something I just can't focus or concentrate on a single thing.
Oh ,and to top it off ,today is her DAMN birthday!
BLAH!
Matt:confused:
 
Woah there....buck up little camper. It was bound to happen...this person has become an integral part of your life over that past few months. You're not the type of person that deals w/ change very well. Take a day off, grab some Ben & Jerry's, take a long ride in the country and just relax there for a bit. At least, that's what I'd do. Or I'd write down what's going on...maybe words could get it out...or any creative way, drawing, photoshop, playing music. Whatever you normally do to destressify. Good luck, Matt...we're all here for you!
 
OK ,Now another question?

It's her birthday and she kinda asked if I would go out to dinner with her and her dad.Do I?
Do I even call and wish her happy birthday?
Then if I do that ,do I go to dinner?
I dunno?

BLAH BLAGHHHH!
Matt:confused:
 
Hmm...if you're still having trouble here's the route:

1) Call and wish her a happy birthday...that's just courtesy, man!
2) If you can take going to dinner then go. It may clear your head a bit. But...you can't go angry, and you can't get upset with her. You have to be a cool cucumber, otherwise it'll screw you up even more and just send you into the deep end. If you're sure you don't want a relationship with her beyond the pleutonic, then it'll be easy. If you're not then it'll be hard, and you could do damage to the both of you and your friendship. If you bought her a present, though, if it's cutesy or romantic it'll give her the wrong idea. I highly recommend going to dinner, being chill & relaxed, having a good glass or to of wine, and giving her a funny birthday card. It'll show her that you're still thinking about her (massage ego) and are willing and ready to be friends (she'll think..."so he wasn't lying" and hopefully be able to move forward). If you can't handle that though, see previous advice. I highly recommend the Ben & Jerry's with oatmeal cookies in it. My girl's cousin, Karly, came up with that flavor!
