Been there. Repeatedly. But after a few failed relationships I think I finally learned. I'm 29 and I'm getting tired of "playing the game." I don't know why women enjoy it, but I think it's really detrimental to relationships and society as a whole. I guess it's to make sure that the other person is really worth it, but it's still something that does more harm than good. I'm young compared to some people, but the way my last relationship ended, I'm really thinking about just looking out for myself from now on. Being alone sucks, but is companionship worth the possible and eventual pain of being emotionally destroyed?

No, it's not. Staying single is the right thing to do. We're in no danger of naturally going extinct anytime soon, so why not just stay alone?

And yeah, these little games are total bull. Especially "hard to get". It amazes me that people think that game is helpful.

That sounds like me minus the relationship part. Somehow I always skip that and go straight to the breakup.

It's just that I don't get it. Why can't a woman keep liking the man she fell for in the first place? Why does she have to change him to be what she thinks is best? I know some guys who've worked really hard in their own lives and in relationships and gotten the women they wanted, and kept them. I used to call those guys lucky, but I don't anymore, because they aren't lucky, they're just rewarded for their hard work. My problem is that it seems I can't get a woman who appreciates that. I've always caught the ones who want more, more and more. Frustrating.

being alone does suck. i'm only 19 so i have my whole life ahead of me. she was my first for everything, but she made her decision. i dont think all girls are like that. you just have to find the right one.

Oh yeah, I'm not trying to pass judgment on women in general, nor have I lost my faith in them. It's just a little disconcerting to me that I have yet to find a healthy long-term relationship even if it didn't work out in the end. I'm almost 30, and I figured I would have had one by now. Oh well.

hahahaha.....after reading a couple of these "relationship" stories i am beginning to think us geeks aren't fit to be in relationships.... .......but i think its usually just are taste in girls/woman.....i think we shouldn't look to settle (i mean come on there are such things as friends with benefits)....im young though so i have my life ahead of me....but sometimes a guy cant always be to nice to a girl or else they feel empowered and then they'll start to walk all over you....be nice of course because no girl loves an ass but let them know that you are a man who deserves as much respects as he gives.....i've been in dumb s#$%t like this and this is because i was too nice of a guy.....after my last ex i changed a lot.....she calls me an ass but that's only because i stick up for myself now unlike the weak feeble me from before.... ..lifes tough and in order to get respect you sometimes have to lay the law....and put on a little muscle mass.... ... nah just kidding but you really just have to know where to look.....

I was once dating a smoking hot girl. Things were going great and we were getting along really well; we seemed to like a lot of the same things, laughed at the same crummy jokes, the sex was fantastic... I was starting to think I was on to a winner!

Then we got on to the subject of politics...

"I have no problem with immigrants, but you have to admit that a lot of the problems in this country starts with them... why can't they just **** off back to their own AIDs riddled country?"

Yeah, things were wonderful up to that point. The xenophobic aspect of her personality aside, she was pretty perfect!

Just curious, who said it?

She did, of course.

She came from a very deprived area where a lot of immigrants had settled.

Thought so. And I guess she blames every economic problem on them, right? Regarding the immigration situation here in the United States, especially Mexicans, I must say much stricter rules should be implemented. It would definitely clear up some issues that may or may not arise with the arrival of illegal immigrants.

Well, social issues are very easily blamed on immigration by some people. But hey ho...

I needed a laugh, so I read through this trainwreck again...

Why the f**k did I use red font? I'm an idiot...

Anyway...necrobump. We have to scare Madeus away from girls, while he's still uncorrupted.

Oh dear god, this has been possibly the most entertaining threads I've read in months!!

I have not laughed like this since that Whose Line is it Anyway marathon on thanksgiving!

As for my stories...not much, as I've never been on an actual date, something I'm hoping to rectify as soon as school starts up again, really cute girl I met (and she didn't scream at my photocomic!), but fortunately I'm pretty awkwardly charming (think Matt Smith) and polite.

Did it have the episode with Richard Simmons? That sh*t was hilarious!

Yes, yes I have. It's flat out one of my favorite comedy shows of all time. I wish I could find them on disk or for streaming. Even the new ones, with some girl from a talk show hosting it, are fantastic, she's no Drew Carrey, but still great.

If your SO asks you in earnest if they look fat, the answer is never yes. Trust me on this one.
