Aash Li Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 So you're talking to this person for over a week, things seem like they could be going well. You're thinking I could really go for this person, and they are acting the same way. And then after a while they call you up or email you and say, I'm actually involved with someone, and it's getting pretty serious... And before that, they are like I'm all for honesty and communication. Like hell you are... What the f***? That's what grinds my gears.
EnderWiggin Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 Very sorry, Aash. That happened to me once as well. The girl and I were totally into each other and then after an intense week she tells me she's already seeing someone. Feel your pain _EW_
jonathan7 Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 <snip> That's what grinds my gears. Sorry to hear that too Aash. Most of my best mates are girls; I normally remark to them that 95% if guys are a***holes and the other 5% are gay. Best bet is to get several friends opinions as to what they think he is like; if the majority think he's decent your on much better grounding, though no system is perfect.
Aash Li Posted July 5, 2008 Author Posted July 5, 2008 A 'Friend' will call you in jail. A 'Good Friend' will visit you. A 'Best Friend' will be sitting on the bench next to you, saying "Dude! That was AWESOME!" I wish I had one friend like that best friend, but I just have "friends"...

That was AWESOME!" I wish I had one friend like that best friend, but I just have "friends"... Ah don't feel bad, I don't have a best friend either... I have a bunch of friends who are your friend one day and not the next... and some of them stab you in the back... Oh the drama... Who needs *best* friends, when you've got us??

That was AWESOME!" I wish I had one friend like that best friend, but I just have "friends"... Friends come and go; except for the precious few who hold on. The friends to hold into are the ones who are around when you are at your most unlovable - as they are the one's who truly care and love you. When your funny and wonderful you will generally have a lot of friends around.
TriggerGod Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 I've got.. 2 best friends. 3 I guess.. that third one I haven't seen since January, and was on the Interwebz. We always have fights, but we get over it Who needs *best* friends, when you've got us?? Must.. Resist.. Shaft...
The Doctor Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 People are stupid and selfish. Most of them just string people along like that because they can, and it makes them feel good about themselves having more than one person interested in them. I feel for you, Aash.
Rev7 Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 Rev I love your avatar. lol. Thanks, I like it too. Probably my favorite so far.
adamqd Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 I thought it was 10% are gay Jonathan? What grinds my Gears? 'The sins of the fathers shall be visited upon the sons', not the bible verse but just in general, and I'm sure I enjoy the privileges of being a white male in england, but it doesn't mean I wanna hear "its 232 yrs since we kicked YOUR sorry ass's home" or "YOU enslaved our people", "Hows YOUR empire now?", "YOUR long ball game got YOU what YOU deserve!", "Get out of Ireland"... I'm not in Ireland! I'm sorry, my possible ancestors wronged your possible ancestor's? possibly. I just live here bro's

I'm not in Ireland! I'm sorry, my possible ancestors wronged your possible ancestor's? possibly. I just live here bro's I'm not sure of the exact percentages to be honest; though if it is 10% I'm still not altering my numbers as you can get people who are gay and muppets I agree. Personally I think it's people who like feeling sorry for themselves that do the above. I'm amused at the general anti-English feeling still in my homeland of Wales; I don't get it; no-one can remember the English being mean! Also I thought it was real special when Bristol apologised for the slave trade; but the Government still won't admit or apologise that Iraq was a rushed war, for incorrect reasons.
Ctrl Alt Del Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 I'm sorry for you, Aash. And I'm trying to be as cautious as possible as I don't know your fully story, but I believe it's all about timing. People tend to not explicit demonstrate their feelings - and I'm not talking solely about guys here - and the "other part" may not always get what the first person actually feels, if you understand me so far. If everyone was at least a little more honest with their feelings, then perhaps we would have less cases like that. Unless we put that guy on one of J7's cathegories I quoted under. Most of my best mates are girls; I normally remark to them that 95% if guys are a***holes and the other 5% are gay. You're doing a favor to humanity. And you can lump me on the @**hole category, by the way.
HerbieZ Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 Man i'm sorry for you Aash, but we should swap shoes sometime. The s**t would really hit the fan then.
Pho3nix Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 Most of my best mates are girls; I normally remark to them that 95% if guys are a***holes and the other 5% are gay. I hope you're not forgetting that 95% of all women are bitches and the 5% who aren't already have boyfriends. =)
EnderWiggin Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 I hope you're not forgetting that 95% of all women are bitches and the 5% who aren't already have boyfriends. =) I've found that the generalization about men is much more true than the generalization about women _EW_
Q Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 They're both true. Ah, the string-along game. This one never gets old. Both genders are guilty of this kind of parasitic behavior. Life would be so much better if people would stop being emotional vampires and using others for toilet paper.
Rachel_Ewok Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 I hope you're not forgetting that 95% of all women are bitches and the 5% who aren't already have boyfriends. =) I'm not a ***** and *I* dont' have a boyfriend.
Pho3nix Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 I'm not a ***** and *I* dont' have a boyfriend. Ah yes, there are exceptions of course. =P They're both true. Ah, the string-along game. This one never gets old. Both genders are guilty of this kind of parasitic behavior. Life would be so much better if people would stop being emotional vampires and using others for toilet paper. I agree.
jonathan7 Posted July 5, 2008 Posted July 5, 2008 I've found that the generalization about men is much more true than the generalization about women Agreed. I hope you're not forgetting that 95% of all women are bitches and the 5% who aren't already have boyfriends. Disagree myself, I know a lot of nice woman, don't know many nice men; most of then guys I know are boys. Both genders are guilty of this kind of parasitic behavior. Life would be so much better if people would stop being emotional vampires and using others for toilet paper. Agreed.
mimartin Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 So you're talking to this person for over a week, things seem like they could be going well.

And then after a while they call you up or email you and say, I'm actually involved with someone, and it's getting pretty serious... And before that, they are like I'm all for honesty and communication. Like hell you are... If you want revenge and to teach the person a lesson, contact the other person they are involved with and explain this to them. A girl did this to me when I was in high school and it worked as I never got involved with two people at the same time again. If it makes you feel any better after a year dating my choice, I realized I made a mistake and that I’m a terrible judge of character. A 'Friend' will call you in jail. A 'Good Friend' will visit you. A VERY GOOD Friend will be sitting on the bench next to you, saying "Dude! That was AWESOME!" Fixed. A best friend is the one that warned you against doing anything so stupid to get arrested, but still bails you out of jail.
jonathan7 Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 A best friend is the one that warned you against doing anything so stupid to get arrested, but still bails you out of jail. Isn't that what parent's are meant to do?
mimartin Posted July 6, 2008 Posted July 6, 2008 Isn't that what parent's are meant to do? Parents and jail don't mix well. If that mixture can be avoided my advice is to avoided it at any cost.
