I'm going to say something kind of non-confrontational and new-agey (bear with me, this is very foreign to me)

It seems like you guys have different paths right now. She wanted someone going one direction and at a certain place, and you are at a point where things are in the building stage.

And as anyone who's taken a sociology course knows, for all the crap about chick flicks and blind romance, MEN are more likely to fall head over heels, whereas women are more likely to seek out relationships in a more pragmatic manner (money, stability, etc)

In the end (more new agey crap) it seems like things are for the best.

Im sure it doesnt seem that way now.

But you know what?

Better now than after several years where you get up in the morning every day and have the same fucking fights about the same three or for things that'll never change.

This is a gift

(god, I'm on a roll, aren't I)

But really, I feel this way.

Just from reading both your posts, it's apparent to me you guys were not a perfect fit. Think 10 years down the road. Could you imagine still being civil, let alone happy?

Now you're free to find someone who IS that fit. Who will always make things work.

Now , you're idea of waiting may be good.

You're probably feeling raw right now, and that's usually not a good time to get involved. Also, you should look at yourself, and ask

"Am I happy with where I am,"

or more significantly,

"where I'm heading?"

I would not be so bold as to call myself an intellectual, but I'm no slouch. Yet, I would NEVER want to go for a PHD, hell I couldnt even imagine a masters right now, and that takes me out of the running for several friends

who put people without advanced degrees on par with a gutter dweller.

Everyone has their own standard.

Yours should just be where you want to be going. If that's being a struggling artist, (I also have friends in that camp) then you just need to find someone cool with that (there are tons pf people out there who are)

What most people look for, men AND women, is someone who's comfortable in their own skin, and can take care of themselves, and occassionally their partner,

And if the person demands something more than you offer, they werent right for you in the first place.

(Now I sound like someones mom, dont I??) :erm I

It's TRUE, though.

The only snag is that you should be in a place where you're comfortable with yourself or where you're going. If you're not,

insecurities and personal struggles will get in the way of true love.

If that's the case the case, Id make sure things are in order in your life first.

Just remember, you decide what your path is.

NEVER let anyone else's expectations define how to live your life. Only you can do that for yourself.

Once you do, that person will come along, because they'll see in you exactly what you aim to be and if it's meant to be,

they'll love you for it.

If they don't, fuck em.

Good luck, man. I hope you're feeling better.

I'm wondering how the hell he conned her into going out in the first place.  Maybe I should take some dating tips from Rambo.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

He told her that he could perform auto-fellatio on himself like I can. I told him to use the pickup line and it worked. J/K but the fact still stand he got to hit it and quit it with a hottie.
