CTownND you are fighting to save something that irreparably broken. time to admit it to yourself and begin to heal/move on
I'm curious to know why you didn't drive straight to her work with 6 dozen fucking roses and carry her out in front of her co-workers. If she's special to you, you'd have done a bit more pursuit than passive-aggressive phone calls. If she's special to you, now's the time to prove it or her decision to stay will be the worst decision she makes.
CTown as a dude who has been in your position, it definitely seems like you're delaying the inevitable because it's uncomfortable and hurts and sucks. Best of luck tho
seriously, figure out whether you want to be with her long term before you completely try and turn this boat around
That's how I'm viewing it. It would suck for both of us if this is how it ends IMO. I'll feel like I goofed it up before bringing it to its natural conclusion, I'm sure at some point she would have regrets over impulsively breaking it off. So I feel like I need to work to get it back to the status quo then take a real hard six month run at it. In six months, and with improved communication, we should be able to figure out if it's going to be something for the long term or not. I know "sunk costs" and all that, but I'm willing to invest some more time in it to get a definitive answer and hope she's willing to do the same.
Just my opinion here and it's not something you should base your decisions on but what is six more months when you've been with here for 4,5 years. Seems to me like a waste of time
That was my other point inforgot to mention. She thought you were flirting with other girls. Then she heard about what you said. And she simply asked for you to get an Uber and go home? You're saying she didn't blown up and cause a big scene?! She really sounds like a keeper since she didn't go all scorned woman crazy. It's truly over unless she shows some scorned woman crazy soon. She's way too calm about.
I woke up this morning and took my dog out. I come in and my girlfriend is standing in front of the bathroom saying I can't go in. I'm thinking this is the first time she's crapped in my apartment. Nope, turns out she broke the top of one of those plug in air freshener containers and was hoping it would air out in the 3 minutes it took for my dog to pee.
set my road bike up on an indoor trainer to get some workouts in seeing as it is pretty much dark when I get home from work. that brought about this gem from my wife. wife - how do you keep the front wheel from moving? me - i have it on the wheel block wife - but won't it still want to move? me - only if I am really trying and violently turn the handlebars, but there is no need to do that as I am not trying to turn a corner while on a trainer wife - no, why isn't it moving forward? me - the back wheel is on a roller, providing resistance and making it stationary wife - I am not talking about the back wheel, won't the front wheel still try to spin me - the front wheel on a bike is not powered and spins due to momentum. did you take physics in high school wife - what is that, is it a math class? you know I am not good at math. me - I am going to chalk this one up to the brain injury you recently had, let's go ahead and change subjects so you can stop digging
hehe. to be fair, this is a conversation that we would have had before her incident. the occasion was just never there.
Was rear ended on the interstate this morning by a chick that was going too fast and not paying attention. The chick was my wife. "I'm not sure what happened!"
We work about a mile apart, so we usually carpool. She follows me basically the whole way when we don't because she thinks she might get lost, in a city she has lived in for 32 years. "They all slammed on their breaks and I didn't notice bc I was just looking directly in front of me & didn't have time to swerve" She drives a Volvo XC90 and drives it like it has the performance and stopping ability of a 3 series.
I'm dying at getting rear ended by your fucking wife Oh man the expression on the insurance adjusters face when he finds out y'all are married
This happened to our neighbors a few months back, they were following each other home from the train station (about a 3 mile trip). The husband actually hit the wife, though. Guy in front of her slammed on his brakes because a deer ran out into the road. We just bought our second car and won't be carpooling anymore, first thing I said to KJROD20 was that there's no way we're following each other home ever.
I've seen this story before and it ends with this thread going to the donor board and CTownND knocking up an Iowa fan in 3 months.
The impact caused me to hit the guy in front of me. When we got out I just stood there and stared at her. The look on his face when I told him it was my wife was priceless.
And on that note CTownND, let her go. I thought I was in your same exact shoes two years ago.. lost out on everything, was going to lose my house, never find anyone ever again, would regret losing her, tried to get her back.. yadda yadda yadda.. Turns out she was fucking psycho. Sued me, followed me around, took my BBQ umbrella (never4get) joined this fine message board to let everyone know she was over me (lol). Right after that I meet someone incredible and the universe laid out its plans with a perfect 9lb5oz gift on 12/12 while that ex keeps posting shit on social media about finding someone good enough to put up with her flaws. Best of luck e-brother. PM me if you need an ear to listen.
Just you wait. I'll put dollars to donuts that an uncle/brother is body shop guy who fixes the car, the cop who filed the report is a neighbor, and the lawyer who ultimately handles their divorce is somehow related to them as well.
let me clarify. I wasn't making fun of you and I apologize if it came off that way. I was more laughing that TMB got to be a part of the entire journey from break up with the ex, to having a kid with the new girl. Congrats man.
