Valentine's Day is coming....I usually enjoy the day, but every year I don't have one makes it less enjoyable. Sigh. This one is making me pi$$y for some reason.

Enough feeling sorry for yourself, Sharpie! Get up and make use of your day off.

So I went and got sushi with the girl today it went okay. We just didn't click but we decided to keep in touch. Just not a lot in common. It happens.

Poor diapers. Perhaps you can ask for one last date and pick her up in a U-haul rolling.gif I'd love to see that facial expression.
no, I've never done that

If I was single, I'd want a shirt that said, I'm single ask me out. laugh.gif Atleast I wouldn't have to try to get a guy to notice me.

Brit says we're okay. I'm in a depression some what. I keep asking him what do you see in me. If I didn't have someone as patient as him with me at times I'd be single forever laugh.gif

Why the hell are boys such teases?

God I'm pissed. Dont lead me on if you dont really like me. And if you really like me stop flirting with other girls.

laugh.gif I seem to get more attention when I'm in a relationship than when I'm single. A couple summers ago I went on a first date with a guy at some Italian cafe & on the way home when I was alone, I had a whole bunch of guys look at me, & they just kept getting better looking laugh.gif. Another instance was when I went on a double date. We all decided to play pool & I kept noticing that this guy was watching me the entire time. Well, it might've been me or maybe he was "admiring" my "great" pool skills laugh.gif. Yeah, I feel bad that I check these other men out but the guys I've been with done it too, only with other girls.

Yep, he's a tease. Anyone who continually flirts with others is not worth having, IMO. They just want to suck up attention.

I take it this is the guy you've been talking about? Sounds like he's not worth your time mambo.

I apologize for all those guys who do that out there...even though I'd like to kick their...

That's so rude. Sorry that happened to you, I guess guys can tease too.
mambo_no_5
Thanks everyone. I'm just a little frustrated. And I knew going into it that this guy was extra-flirty so I was being careful but still. It kind of hurts. Hopefully we'll talk today.
Carnivale_HBO
^^^Ya, that sucks! I hope you can sort stuff out or something!
emilyhcole
That sucks mombo. I hope you guys can talk later.
Fancy_New_Becca
sucks mambo, sorry.

Pip you know it works the same for me alittle. I'm single and I didn't get attention really, but when I'm in a relationship I get the looks and the flirty behavior.

If I can just get the brit to act this way with me again
Carnivale_HBO
^^^It could be that when your in a relationship--especially a new one--you feel great and that emanates from you, therefor attracting guys. Kinda like Pam in season 4!

Sorry mambo, that sucks. At least now you know his true character. So why do you still want to talk to that weasel? You are a wonderful person, you needs someone smart enough to appreciate you. wub.gif

Excellent mambo. I've been led on before...it's insulting. Hope you taught him a lesson.

good for you mambo. maybe he'll wisen up and see that he's screwed up. It's nice when a guy comes back asking for a second chance.

My sister recently commented that my love life is like a film, & I think she's right laugh.gif. Remember me mentioning how I planned to see my best friend up with that guy? Well, the inevitable happened. After ending it with Mr.TV star, things kinda changed. My feels that I had for my guy friend turned from platonic to romantic. Suddenly I realized how charming, witty & kind he was. Naturally I felt bad for having this feelings, because my best friend claimed that she wanted to date him etc. He wanted to go on a date too, only with me. Anyway it's been a few weeks since that happened & she's pretty much over him. She stopped talking about him & asking him how he is. I don't think he was interested from the start & I just remember him being choked when I asked him if he wanted to be set up. Weeks later I admitted my feelings for him & now we're back to normal. He's been really supportive about the situation with my grandma, & that really touched me. He told me to call him if I needed to talk, & I thought that was really sweet wub.gif. And he calls me sweetie, which I love. Long story short, we're talking a lot lately & I finally can be myself around him. I'm just lucky that my best friend was ok with all this. When we first became friends, I never imagined this happening. We keep asking each other out but we've been busy lately so hopefully we can hang out laugh.gif.

I always thought that friends developing feelings for each other was some Hollywood idea but now, I know it's real & it feels pretty good smile.gif.

at the superbowl party last night all couples.. I felt so out of place. And it was on the day of my "Jim's" b-day.. I sent him an e-mail.. he e-mails me like crazy for 4 months then nothing.. I swear....I just don't get him

Fancy_New_Becca
Pam sorry to hear you have one of those type guys. men should be easier to read, but sadly they are just too confusing. Hope it can gets worked out

Jam its never easy. Hope it works out the way you would like it.

Brit and I talked last night but around 12:30 am. It was okay cause I was up. We didn't talk about ms. thang but I made a few jibes at the way he shows his affections for me and he went eww so yeah I think he gets saying, I love you bucket loads isn't very sweet. freakin' british rolling.gif
I tried to tell him I went to a superbowl party and flirted and met a guy and we were all over each other. He said "that's nice darling had a good time then did you" freakin' british! I can't even joke anymore. guess he really knows I will never cheat on him

Aww, that sucks PH! Maybe he's busy? Have you tried calling him or emailing again?
Fancy_New_Becca
okay, I'm a really awesome fiancee. I still leave the brit little love notes and emails. And I left him this big sappy I love you because email. He's just rang while I was making some eggs. Telling me he doesn't know what to say and he's flabbergasted (his words). He really couldn't say too much cause he kinda stutterd and stumbled to find the right words. He did say a bunch of sorry's and told me I would be getting something very special cause I couldn't be more beautiful or special.

I brought him to his knees! biggrin.gif

mambo_no_5
Um I gave in. I'm so stupid. I texted him today at school, because I couldnt take not talking to him. And I'm stupid. Did I mention that already? Well, the conversation ended in us going out to lunch later this week. I'm giving him a chance. And I have a really hard time being (and staying) mad at people.
Fancy_New_Becca
theres no harm in that mambo. Maybe you and this guy can talk an work things out. If things don't go well with your lunch date you'll find it easier to stay away then I bet
emilyhcole
That's ok mambo, he can turn out to be a nice guy. Give it a shot, it's just lunch, and if your gut feeling is that he is in it for the wrong reasons, or something, then you can break it off. I hope he'll be nice and you have a good lunch!
minkiloo
Ok guys, I think the break up might be imminent. I'm not sure when, but I'm hoping I have the guts to do it, and stick to it. It's been a rough 4 years, but I still love him (but not enough to deal w/what he puts me through), so this is going to be difficult. It took me 4 years to realize that sometimes love isn't enough, and I hope I don't lose sight of that. Can I ask that when (hopefully not if!) it happens, that I can post to you guys to make me remember to keep my kahonaies in tact?

Wedd329
^^^Yes, you can. If you have alredy broken up with him in your head, and you have the reasons outlined, it will be hard to come back from that anyway. Please let us know how it goes and stay strong, because if you don't, you may wind up with what happened to me. I wanted to break up with my boyfriend for over a year but I kept chickening out. I wasted a year of my life, a year I could have been with my husband instead. When it's not right, it's not right and when you know it, you know it. Good luck! smile.gif
