This is bordering on ludicrous

i must be attracted to the most brainless, spineless women...

so the local girl i fell in love with has been torn between her bf from Alberta and me since Nov...she "claims" it's not easy to make a choice (total bullshit)...

this week, i was supposed to grab lunch with a colleague who went to school with me, and we haven't seen each other since graduation...we set it up last week for today...heard nothing from her as of last night...made a $10 bet with my roomie she'd bail...sure enough, i sent an e-mail about 20 minutes ago asking if we were still on...response: "Do you mind if we do it next week? So sorry...but my day is a disaster and is only 10ish.

I'll be out of the office on Tues. So...Wed. or Thurs. should be fine to meet up w/ you.

Let me know if that wks for you too-" so not only did i get shafted, but i had to take the initiative to find out this shit...of course, if i didn't say anything, i was suppose to know it like im omniscient or something, right??? so i'm $10 richer...

now, in the beginning of this week, another schoolmate was supposed to come down from CT this weekend...this time, we've kept in touch since graduation...she's the old fashioned type where she needs a specific invitation for a specific time...she doesn't care for the rolling invitations that last indefinitely...last thing she told me was she'd call to let me know when she's coming, keeping in mind it's a 3-day weekend...again last night, i bet my roomie another $10 she's gonna bail...well it's Friday, and i have yet to hear from her (usually means a no-show from times past)

and these girls aren't total ditzes either...one works at my company doing derivatives, while the other works at The Hartford Insurance Company up in, well, Hartford

so that's been my "love" life...how's yers???

Your trying too hard. Stop looking and you'll find something PLUS you seem to allow your self fuffilling prophecy of failure happen.

For the first girl, she probably hung out with her ex. For some reason girl's always go back to the ex. I'll end that with a quote from Aaron Karo: "Recently I’ve been running into a perplexing breed – girls still dating their boyfriends from college. You know how this generally works: they’ve been dating on again off again since sophomore year, he cheated on her, she takes him back, they took some time off after graduation but now they’re back together because she can’t be alone, it’ll never work out long-term but it’s convenient for now, blah, blah, blah. Ladies, guys, it’s time to move on, free up some ass for the rest of us."

I was in the same position as you for the other girl. This girl said she wanted to hang out with me but everytime in the past she bailed on me, so the next time she said she wanted to hang out I told her "This time YOU CALL ME when you're ready to go out", and she said ok. Did she wind up calling? Nope. The way I see it, I'm not gonna put any effort towards someone that won't put any effort in themselves.

here was my response to the e-mail the 2nd girl sent me...

"tell you what...

i'll just keep lunch as an open invitation, and when you're ready, let me know...how's that?"

her response to that..."That would be perfect! Thanks for understanding..we have lost some people to other companies and until the new hires are up to speed...things will remain overwhelming in volume.

Have a great wkd!"

raisin the flag

and Ernie, allowing myself to fail is baffling at best...it's more like i know what the outcome is going to be, so even tho i do give it a legitimate shot, why get my hopes up...reverse psychology approach

Yeah and a pessimist is never disappointed. Like I said you need to take the female drama out of your life and deal with the bigger problems.

Wow Scooter:


Relationships are great but you seem to be TRYING to find one, it's not working for you, stop leading yourself down the same road again and again.


Do NOT TRY. Just be happy you have time to spend by yourself right now and you don't need to blow money on going out, gifts all that BS associated with being in relationships. You're sayign you don't have money to spend anyway...........last thing you need is a woman.....

Go out and have fun. Be "friends" and leave it at that.....you'll a relationship will find you when you are ready to be in a relationship......

Scooter,
Like eclipse said, just take the female element out of life right now and deal with other shit. Easier said then done, yep. I just decided to take a break from dating myself after getting badly hurt to get my other ducks in a row. Had to break some ties, but i gotta tell you, from a mental and emotional standpoint, its already starting to help. Find other activeites to fill our time, something meaningful an focusing.

Shit will then proceed to work itself out and before you know it, you'll be meeting women again and hopefully the right ones..

BTW before you cut ties, take your $20 earnings and go get a BJ first

Hey Scooter, it's Friday night and I'm sitting home alone. But, I am happy. Bitches Aint Shit. Remember that.

My love life is as complicated as they come... My Ex-wife is coming to visit me for 4 days next month. Things are about to get that much more complicated. She was not very happy when I told her about Lori and the fact that someone else is pregnant with her husbands baby.

Now that is certainly some complicated, soap-opera type shit...

Scooter, you seem too conservative to me and lame. So do something different for once with a girl that you would never do, just be bold.

I think I finally understood how to do this...but then again I may have met a girl that is like the ones here...(ie: normal)

She likes greasy hands that do manual labor...she thinks its hot. This is what my familly business comes home with...most women hate grease monkey hands...she skis, she went for 3 days this weekend. She has reeeeealy nice skier legs... :lickit: We really seemed to hit it off, but I am still kicking myself for not asking for her number at the end of the night...but I told her that we should def. hang out again. The reason I did not ask for her number is twofold:
1) She pursued one of my friends, I know that he was not interseted, but I wanted to make sure of it before I did anything...I guess I'm just crazy like that. He not only told me to go for it, but said...please do...
2) After taking it a little too fast with the last two girls and the outcome having been bad, I kept hearing in the back of my head...slow down, slow down, plus this way it seems like I am slighty interested, but not all that much, which seems to be the trick.

I never made it a pint to talk to her unless she talked to me all night...I finally figures that out...there is a God...in a large group of friends, let them talk to you....beautiful, and she initiated the physical contact and all...great...unfortunaltely this doesn't happen to me often enough, but maybe its just becuase I went in not lookins, which is the point that I am trying to make here.

Now I just need to figure out how to walk up on a girl in a bar or coffee shop or at school. Tips?
