Yeeeah, if this topic keeps being off-topic, I'll have to unsticky it. Or maybe lock it.

I'd give it a few more days, then if it stays how it is then lock it.

Come on people. It's not that off topic. If anything, 3 days ago it started going back on topic again....a bit.

Alright fine, I'll contribute. I find myself listening to "Love Stinks" a lot lately. Can't seem to figure out why though.

That's not exactly what I was reffering to but ok....

What I meant was that I already got over my breakup (how long ago exactly?) a long time ago. Somehow, I feel this weird kind of anger. Only it's not anger at my ex. More or less angry at myself for having feelings for her. Do you get what I mean?

Anger is feeling bad about something beyond your control. This sounds like something you can do something about, so I assume there is something you can do but are refusing to.

Also, guys tend to get more upset after a break up having lost their only enotional outlet.

According to dictionary.com:

anger -

–noun

1.

a strong feeling of displeasure and belligerence aroused by a wrong; wrath; ire.

It says nothing about not something being beyond your control. And I can't say I've experienced his feelings exactly, but I've felt similarly, and I can safely say that you're wrong. There's very little one can do to control those feelings short of the obvious "change the way you think" solution - and anyone who's tried that will know it isn't as easy as all those preachy self-esteem lectures make it out to be.

I do agree with you on the second point, though.

Any how, i am gonna pull a quick one on xort. just how is your love life?

Uneventful. There is only one girl at my school I'm interested in, and she isn't interested in me. As such, I've resigned myself to wait till next spring when I graduate and head off to college before I worry too much with it.

Details?

Not a whole lot to say, really. We run cross country together, and are pretty good friends.I told her I liked her, and she wasn't interested, so we continued on as we were. It was only a little awkward, so I consider myself lucky.

I'd rather not make her uncomfortable about it. If she's not into me, I'll back off. We're rather good friends, so given my bumbling nature in real-life conversation, I'd just end up screwing everything up if I tried to make it work. So I'll settle for good friends, and just wait until I've had a more than just high school experience with these things before I try and get too into it.

It's still beyond your control.

Oh please. Why do people do this? You deserve no sympathy if things go wrong love wise for you. Did you not think she might have feelings for you but is hiding them too? I'm sick of this excuse being used every single time. Give youself a hard kick in the balls for me would you?

... really? That's the best excuse you have? That's pathetic. He's interested. Clearly he wants her. If he just wants to be friends, then why bring it up at all. If he wants more, then he should let her know. What's the worst that happens? She says no? Wow. Alot lost there for next to no gain. ...oh wait, silly me, that's wrong. Theres everything to gain and only cost is a minute of awkwardness. Sounds like a bargain to me.

Not necessarily. Have you ever been angry that you stubbed your toe for the thousandth time, despite the fact that should you just get your lazy ass into gear and move the bed an inch or two to the left the problem will be solved? Have you ever known exactly what you were about to do wrong and been angry because you know you're about to fuck up? You can be mad at things inside your control. Take me, for example: I absolutely knew someone - not who, but someone - would respond with the following:

Yeah, it just so happened to be you. Go figure. And despite knowing that, and being able to easily avert the situation by not talking about my situation, I can still be pissed that you're such an utter douche-kazoo.

I came right out and told her I like her, after hinting at it for a while and waiting for her to maybe make a move. She told me she isn't interested in me that way. Now, I dunno about you, but where I come from there's this little thing called "trust." Meaning if someone tells me they don't like me like that, I take their word for it and I don't continue hounding them about it because 'they must just be hiding their true feelings for me!' No, no, no. That's utterly retarded, and that's how restraining orders get filed.

If you're gonna talk shit, I suggest you actually read what I post. I stated - very clearly, I might add - that I did tell her I like her. To her face. Blatantly. She told me she wasn't interested. Yes, you're right that I would like something more. But she just isn't into me. Get it through your thick skull.

Then that brings us back around. Why bring it up?

Ajc asked him about his love life.

This. Like I said, maybe you should actually read everything that goes down before making an ass of yourself, Sabre  :trollface:

He asked how his love life is going, then xort brought it up.

Good job! You get a gold star!

Really? You're trollin'. You've gotta be. I know you're not this bad. Of course I brought it up. I've posted all over the place in here, and I never once explained my love life. Ajc asked about it, and I'm generally a pretty accommodating guy, so I answered. Common courtesy, common sense.

Wow. I never realised I was such a retard. It took someone who is at serious risk of drowning himself getting a drink to point it out.

Seriously though. Why bring it up if it's not current. It's like if he asked me about my love life and I went on a rant about some woman in college I never went out with. A better example that even you can understand would be-

"Sabre, what did you have for tea?"

"I didn't have pie. I also didn't have burger."

Why mention it? Really, why?
