I'm tell you guys, I went from 270 being completely fat to 183 right now with abs moving in. I'd fuck myself LMAO!!! All kidding aside, like I said I'm just enjoying life right now. This is a good moment for me and i'm taking full advantage of it.

Wow, for real.

I WILL say this, when I became single and depressed. I quit smoking and dropped from 258 to 211 by jogging and eating less. It made a HUGE difference in the way women approached me. My confidence got better and I took on a new approach to the idea of happiness (namely, that it was something you decide and choose rather than some people just being lucky cause they were happy...courtesy "The Art of Happiness" by the Dalai Lama) and once I did that, it seemed to really attract people to me, in general.

There was HUGE difference in how people treated me when I was 210 from 260. Much better...glad you got it together, man. Nothing like being in control of your destiny (more of less).

I've been going to the gym more often too but I always undo the workout with my eating habits

I try so hard to eat well, more importantly smaller portions, but I've eaten like crap for years. I'm surprised I'm not bigger than I am.

Wearing a shirt that fits is always the best solution. Either end of the spectrum will result in laughs from both sexes.

i dint mean that fits me tighter than my skin....a tshirt that fits = you can see some muscle and your not trying to hard to show them....

you cant walk in a club and show ur 6 pack....you gotta show some muscle....so a tshirt that fits does the trick, or a button down with 1-2 top buttons undone

I gotcha. I just immediately imagined the tools in Hollister shirts that are two sizes to small.

A shirt that fits should have a seem right where your shoulder drops off.

If you want fitted clothes, Express has some really nice fitted sweaters, t-shirts, and jeans.

It's the only brand I wear aside from Rock and Republic

How's it been..." I was also on a dating site which I rejected 4 girls and one of them still doesn't understand it ain't going to happen... I'm doing me right now, working on my body hard and spending a lot of time with this girl. I took her down the shore to my parents home, we ended up cuddling and feel asleep next to each other... We woke up and umm yeah lol I just looked into her beautiful eyes moved in very close and we both just went for it. Ha! Ahhh life is great right now. My ex.. yup not even a damn thought in my mind.

To answer how did I determine if they weren't worth the time simple they never once cared to know who I really was before posting that picture now all of a sudden they want to "know" me. Nothing but sex on their end, and that is something I made very clear to all of them, not looking for rebounds... All I can do is just keep looking forward to a better day than the last day.
why put up a picture like that if you were looking for something serious..

Glad to hear that things have worked out for you Not to burst your bubble but remember you are still in the "honeymoon" stage with this new girl so everything may seem perfect. If you are looking for something serious please be on your guard

After 9 years, you can't tell the man you'd been with "I love you". It hit me so hard, I went from some what stable to a wreck. I know this is it, tomorrow She ends this dream of ours. I made one of the most hard phone calls ever today. A guy who she would hang with a lot from college, I had asked him to promise me that when this ends, he should be there to support her and take care of her, and make sure she doesn't end up with an asshole. I fought every tear back before hanging up and breaking down. I am asking the lord to give me strength to over come tomorrow.
I can't imagine what 9 years felt like but after my 4 year relationship I can tell it's difficult to get over the fact that you "feel" like you lost what you had, but you didn't really lose anything. Nothing should ever be a regret. My 4 year relationship pretty much ended like yours, my temper tantrums got to me and after a few nasty arguments she had enough and said she was "done". Agree with everyone else here saying that it's best to never put your life on hold, and the fact still holds true, if she was the one, then things have a way of working out.

Found my way into ramblings and came across this thread, skimmed through most the post and read all of yours Guss. Just like other AZ members, family members and friends advised you to move on for your well being they also advised you to test the waters. Being a good man and having some experience don't necessarily have to be on opposite sides of the specturm. I think before you go and bog yourself down in a long term, serious relationship you should go on A LOT more dates; it'd help your emotional maturity and intelligence. The only people in your life that are irreplaceable are your parents and even when they pass away, life goes on. When you've had X amount of relationships/experiences it puts the value of each of them into prespective.

That's amazing...the chances of that happening so quickly are pretty slim.
You must know yourself really well...and know what you want really well.

Either way, glad to see your tone is upbeat and happy!

GUS, I read somewhere (dont ask) the best sex a girl has last only 15-20 minutes....and add a little fooling around before that (another 10-12 minutes)....

so you should have been done in 30 minutes....i hope she wasnt yawning for the remaining hour and half, or worse, fallen asleep

as long as you're happy, that's all that matters! But I will say that when the first thing you say about why she's great is that sx is awesome and she's bangin and lasted 2 hours...I would be very surprised if you are still with her in 6 months. But, that's the fun of being young!

2 hours...wtf...don't you have any hobbies or anything else that needs to get done! When I was younger, I would aspire to that, think about it all the time, want to do it all the time and do it for hours. LOL...needless to say you find out later that no chick (that you can bring home to mom) like it for that long. Now, I'm happy with a few times a week...quality over quantity...for sure. LOL
