Ugh... this sucks... :(

i have to agree..it will tear u up more.....i dunno how girls say they can be friends with thier ex's.....i for one know a ex that hangs aorund a girl...isnt tryin to be their friend for ever..they are just waitin to get back in the picture.....just move on and live ur life :)
 
If there's one thing that I've learned while being on here, it's that more women need to be like Jo and Diane...Listen to them. They can give you a female's take on the situation that none of us men can offer.

And, while I understand your situation is tough, just remember that things could be worse...believe me, I've recovered from deeper falls than what you've got on your hands, and even those were nothing compared to the worst that can happen in life. It will burn for a while, but you'll live. I promise.

Here's a little thing that I realized a while back, and I think that cbcbd will agree with me: People are always growing and changing. When a relationship goes awry, it is often because the parties involved have peaked or ebbed in their growth cycles at different times. They are no longer the same people that start the relationship, and are in fact so different that a split must occur. That does not mean that friendship can not exist, but the intimacy inherant in really sharing your life with someone can not reside in these conditions.

Amen, brotha!!!(drinks)

Whoever finds and keeps more to their true self earlier will be the one ready for true intimacy and probably waiting for the other shlepps (like yours truly) to come on along.


...and what a complex psychological web we weave...(crazy)

nothing went wrong. she grew up.

being apart lets you realize alot of things about yourself, especially when you're off to college for the first time and taking in alot of new things at once.

not to pee in your wheaties, but high school relationships rarely work out. sometimes they do, but usually not.

6 months is relatively short also. i had a 2 year deal going with a girl from high school that lasted right up until she graduated. suprise suprise, she grew up too.

hopefully it works out the way you want it to. if not, trust me. you'll look back on it in a year and wonder why you got all worked up.
Hmmm. I have been with my Wife since she was 15 1/2 which at that time I knocked her up :) and thus a couple yrs and change later when she was 18 and I was 19 we got married. We now have 3 kids one of which is 16 my Wife is a nurse and I am a tech. We make good money and are about to build our second house in two yrs (and it will be uber bitchin) so all in all not bad for a couple of kids who had a kid dropped out of school and then went to college. Try explaining this to your children, Well yeah I dropped out and yeah I make around 70k a year and yeah so did your mother but then she became a nurse but damn it YOU'RE STAYING IN SCHOOL! :)
So not all young romances go into the shitter.
I often wonder what it would be like if I could go back in time and date someone else but every time I know I would be wondering what she is doing where she is and who she is with. So in other words I still love her now perhaps even more than then.
BTW we got married almost 15 yrs ago (1989) :D

Plus she has really big TITTIES (wink)
