Romance

@Kesagake Well, I understand that feeling of What Could Have Been, and its just until recently that I decided to not indulge it one bit. Why? time does not reverse, so I need to cherish the memories that I -did- manage. For me, it's fine how things went, I am my splendid self thanks to them events.

Thanks Quag, Konk.

If things didn't get better, I might well take you up on that.

Found an OKC account called Single Female Lawyer. She seemed a terrible match, but i was compelled to send her a message saying "Single Female Lawyer, fighting for her client, wearing sexy miniskirts and being self-reliant!"

So, I've been silent on the matter, but I am no longer single. ^^ I met a girl on OK Cupid who actually knew several of my friends, invited her to see Jurassic World with said friends, and several dates (and weeks) later, we are now officially a couple. ^___^

Well, it's not the worst thing she's going to find in her inbox.

So the thread has slowed down, and I have one hell of a story to tell about romance. But it's really really long though (and I mean like twice the last big thing I posted), and it's sorta pointless.

Point is, should I post it or not? I don't care either way, up to whomever the next few people are I guess.

Now that you made us curious, it's not only "you should" but "you have a sacred duty to".

Sounds a lot like one I bungled in high school. I was a senior, she was a freshman, after a few months I realized it was the same girl always talking to me at school and at church, considered the romantic possibilities, and decided that it was probably nothing and I shouldn't try to make it anything because three years is a big gap in high school and I'd be leaving in less than a year.

Then one of our friends commented that the two of us should date, and her response was "sure, why not?", and I gave her all of the reasons I'd convinced myself of. Then I realized she was asking because she'd been interested.

Some months later, after this had changed the dynamic of how I interacted with her, the topic came up again, and she was the one who turned me down, citing all the same reasons plus "I had a friend who dated a guy who went to college and he cheated on her", but later she admitted the real reason had been that she didn't want to get hurt again.

As it turned out, leaving for college wasn't goodbye forever, so I came back home expecting things to be awkward between us, which made it actually awkward. By the time I realized it was only awkward because I was making it awkward, she was married, but she occasionally asks me for writing advice.

I have the site in night mode, so all the white space in the text of that big post around those colored words is disorienting to me.

Insert witty 'n clever quip here.

Bleye, i just texted you. We're talking about this right now because holy shit i didnt even realize she liked you.

Oh my. A friend I've liked for a really long time asked if she could be my Domme. To say I'm excited would be a horrendous understatement.

In college I'm aiming to hopefully make a ton of female friends. Plus I'll have the advantage of not wanting to sleep with them; sex doesn't much interest me. Too much effort for too little payoff. Plus it seems one need to be entirely sober to enjoy it, which seems sketchy to me.

Really, don't see what the big deal around sex is.

When you going to college?

Odd: once I get my GI Bill stuff going. Been sidetracked lately. Aiming to go to a local community college for some core prerequisites first, then transfer to Michigan State.

I think I've reached the reasonable state of still being in love with my ex, but understanding that even if I can't get what I want, I can still live my life without her, and just because my love for her and time with her were special doesn't mean I can't find something just as special with someone else. I mean hell, I'm 18. I've got decades to find love with someone else.

Wow. I, um, didn't expected that. I truly wanted her to be happy and I still loved her. Wanted her to move on.

She did. Found another guy. I just didn't expected it'd be so quickly, or easily.

Wow. I really don't know how I feel right now. A little bit skewed and disoriented, a little bit indignant.

I'm not sure if I'm happy for her or not.

Again, I'm here if you need someone to talk to.

I know that situation all too well.

@Mark: Fair enough there. What're you planning on studying?

Insert witty 'n clever quip here.

Odd1: Microbiology. It's part of the reason I aim to go to MSU, I've heard Michigan State has a good microbiology program.

Ideally, I want to work for either the CDC or some pharmaceutical company studying viruses.

Bleye: Kinda sounds like what happened to me and one of my best friends. Everyone pretty much shipped us, but given that she already has a boyfriend and the fact that we're roommates this coming year makes it not work. Even if she didn't already have a boyfriend, I still don't think anything would happen, since it could potentially end badly for our other two roommates.

I actually live with my SO in an apartment where we have other two roommates as well. 'Not wanting to end it badly for the other roommates' is a good incentive to keep you together, even if you then would be together for all the wrong reasons, like convenience.
