Break up stories...or lack there of.

So, once again I will tell you about another friend of mine (95% of my threads in D&R are about other people if you haven't noticed )

He hates his girlfriend. Hates her. She still likes him and enjoys spending time with him. He doesn't let her know how he feels so she thinks everything is going smoothly. I finally ask him why the hell is he doing this to himself and this girl, I almost shat when he told me why...

...she owes him $140.00

I told him he was a moron and laughed for a few minutes thereafter.

I've got to imagine some other people on here have some similar stories of wanting to break up, but won't... lets hear them...

Your friend is an idiot! I suspect that he is in love with her despite the money and the abuse.

Hasn't he ever heard the words "Bitch betta have my money"????

If you were to ever meet him, you'd know that this is exactly the type of thing he would do. He could have easily been the 5th major cast member on Seinfeld or a stand in for George Costanza.

I actually think this was on an episode of Seinfeld.

My girl is cool at the moment...I kinda feel like I'm selling myself short...like my expectations are reasonable and she doesn't meet them...I told my boy that I'm going to ride this out until the end though so we'll see what happens I don't hate her by any means, but I just feel like we don't "click" as much as we are supposed to...and we've been together long enough where my expectations should be high, and she SHOULD be meeting them...oh well

If things were just not going cool, and you WERE compatible, just having problems...THEN you stick it out a little longer to give it a chance. But if you know this is not the type of person that works well with you, then you have to let her go despite your feelings for her. It doesn't even have to be that she is a bad person - just wrong for you. You see, it's just that, because you would have to change her in order for her to be your type, it will usually only happen temporarily or not at all and just result in more anguish. What must happen here is that you must let go and have the confidence that you can find what it is that you are looking for in a person/woman. That's called loving yourself first and not settling. Do that, and you can make YOU happy, let alone someone else. A lot of people make this mistake (falling in love with the wrong person and not knowing how or when to leave)...learn from their's without creating your own.

I'm just full of advice for you Sorry if it gets a bit much, but I had to chime in. Love the woman first, the kid will follow. I'm old enough now to have friends who got divorced when their kids grew up and left, because that's all they were staying together for. If your relationship is centered on children, what happens when the children go? Also, the absolute BEST thing you can do for children is show them what it looks like to have two parents who love eachother. They need to see that a strong relationship is built around two people in love, not two friends who just love their kids.

Answer is simple. She can buy him beer.

I don't know how many times I would have paid $140 to get out of a bad relationship. He's hanging in there for something else besides a pay back. Besides, you can still collect on a debt when you're broken up.

Agreed. I think he's working through whether this is "the" girl, which would also make him an instant dad.

So basically, he hates his g/f because she owes him $140, which she is reluctant to pay back because she feels that he will be cool about it because she is his girl and gives him ass when he wants it(we all pay for it in some indirect fashion)?

If he wants his money back so badly, an attempt at retrieving said funds would still be necessary weather he is in a relationship with her or not. So...

His options are:

A. Break up with her then ask for his money back
B. Don't break up with her but still ask for his money


If he really hates his g/f, I doubt that things would be going smoothly. Thats a strong emotion, you cant had that shit. Unless she's DAF.

She ended it last night with him

Now he's the loser in the relationship, and he's out the money

Serves him right...
