PostPosted: Thu, 11th Sep 2008 00:04    Post subject: and it happens again
i remember this one guy in my gym... he was HUGE.. he was 248lb of PURE muscle... rock hard.. he always came to the gym and gave it %150... until his 8year gf broke up with him... he lost 55 pounds in 3 months... first day it happened he spend 2 hours in the gym, sitting on the bench press just stareing into the wall... i was thinking, ok wtf, she broke up with you, yah it hurts but suck it up and be a ****ing man.


but now i know how he feels... my gf of 5 years broke up with me... i have a dangerous job which gets me into fights and shit and yah i have got my ass handed to me on a number of occassions, but NOTHING hurts this bad.

i haven't slept in 32 hours... haven't ate in more than a day... the shock just ****ed me up... i cancelled work for the next 3 days since my mind is just not there.


i'm very sorry for the thread, i just don't know who to talk to, i can't really take this shit to my friends, they'll just laugh it off as if its nothing and pretend its a good thing.. meanwhile i'm slowly dying inside... i think there might have been another guy, or just in the beginnings of a "thing"... its killing me... its just dying of a very very slow death.


bah, sorry again...

Your experience illustrates very clearly how most people who give advice about life-experiences they haven't been through themselves do more harm than good.

No right answer where emotions are concerned I guess....

Although If you read at all, I generally find that great books provide more profound human insight than Oprah style bullshit advice......

That and booze......Booze works for me in most situations come to think of it....heh, weak minded motherfucker that I am......

welcome to the comfort mate. Trust me, Ive been there. Whilst 2 years isnt quite 5 years I felt exactly the same.


Any details on why it happened?


Its almost as if you have nothing to live for. But trust me when I say you grow stronger every morning when you wake up. The best thing I can say is spend much time with friends and family as possible, they are the best remedy. Did you live together? go stay at someone elses house.. perhaps you dont live together.. if so, either way just try to disconnect yourself from her completely, your mind needs a break from seeing her pictures (put them face down) or watching her sign online on msn.. (dont go online Smile)

The small stuff helps IMO, just try to focus on those, that one thing to take your mind off of her.

If I havent stressed it enough, getting her out of your life and mind is the first step to feeling better. Put all her shit away somewhere safe and let time heal you.

It is time to find yourself again.. the new you, the comfortable self that you have inside waiting to be found Smile After a break up its really the best way to find out who you truly are and what you really like to do.

Keep posting regularly, I and Im sure others will read and respond Smile

Sigh waldo.. not everyone is willing to/wants to fuck some whore to get over an ex love Rolling Eyes

That is your solution for your 2 week breakups.. this guy is talking about 5 years of love, friendship and memories. You dont just get over that by fucking some new skank.

Rolling Eyes if you're gonna sit and sulk over some girl that you loved and had this and had that you'll feel trashed and ruined. fuck for do you need that? If everyone sulked over every girl then everyone would be single. You gotta get over her, move on and make yourself feel better in the process.

A girl of 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 10 years leaves you, of course you're gonna feel like shit. you lost a part of yourself. A person you trusted, cared for and had all those wonderful memories with. Yeah it stings. It fucking does. You think you'll never find a girl like that again. Yaddi-Yadda-Emo-Talk. But if you sulk and if you cry about it and feel like shit then the next girl you'll see, you'll compare to your ex. and then the next girl and then the next. Best thing, get your dick wet, know that you're not a complete loser and you can easily find someone new and someone better.

Sulking and feeling like shit is not good for anyone. She left him, she left you, etc etc etc etc.... write a poem about it. is it gonna help you find another girl? no. is it gonna increase your ego by trying to figure out what you've done wrong? no. is it gonna make you feel better if you vent? yeah. But then what? Seriously.

Two weeks to figure out who you are, what you want, and you're done. That's my stance on this. Max is a man, not some highschool kid. he can easily go out, find another girl. It stings right now, cause it's raw and it's a bullshit feeling to have your testicles tied in a knot and then hammered with a hammer. But he's a fucking man. he's not some emo crybaby boy. He'll get over it, and he'll get over it faster than you have kaeye. For fucks sake. You guys make it seem like finding a girl is darn-near impossible. Neutral

Have some confidence. There's none in the first couple days of a concrete breakup with someone you've shared 5 minutes with over the span of 2 or even 5 years. Takes a while to grow back some pubic hair. A week I think. I'm not a scientist.

what the hell Neutral It took me like 2 months to get over it, I will admit it. I doubt he will get over it any quicker than that. I was out meeting new girls after a month or so, but it didnt help, so I stopped. All you do if you do that is compare the new girls to the ex.

Everyone deals with it in their own way Waldo. I did not emo crybaby either, I cried for aprox 30 mins after the first 2 year breakup and I cried for 10 mins on the 5 year friendship/relationship breakup of recent. Crying is what is normal, it is pathetic to call someone less a man for crying, even if it is over a girl.

Why would we speculate and who the fuck are we to even expect them to give such personal details? Sometimes people just need to write stuff down and put it out there for others to talk about and watch from a distance. They get to pick and choose what they wanna listen too.

took me months to get over my first ex. and it wasn't worth it (or maybe it was). Then the next next next ex it took me a year even though it should've happened a lot sooner due to the circumstances of that break up. I haven't cried. I know it helps. I know it eases things. But all you really have to do is grow some balls and move on. Seriously. I know that any girl after the girl you thought was the one will be compared one way or another. It's not worth it, cause you'll end up missing out on a lot of girls that are worth your time. You can't help it cause you feel worthless. You feel like shit and is it really worth it? It's not. Best thing to do is to move on. Feel like shit for a while, no more than two weeks, and then give other girls a try. I did that. Of course it didn't work out 'cause of some unresolved issues. But it lasted a second or two or maybe even 3 minutes. It was worth it. It still is worth it. What's not worth it is moping around, feeling like shit and degrading yourself to a point where your confidence is thrown out the window. Rolling Eyes

It's not calling someone weak for crying over a girl. It's normal. It's natural. But for fucks sake, you can't let it control your life. Max is a good guy. And he's got balls. he can easily find another girl without any problems. Smile

fuck having random sex... that is not me.. i usually have to be in a relationship for that... sorry but my entire life was connected with her and for 5 years... cant just forget it... specially if it is for guy (not sure yet, i see some hints). i don't do drugs, and i RARELY drink any alcohol...

i'm getting into shit when i come back to work since i am missing work without proper reason. i tried explaining how it is not smart for me to be in the road when i'm sleep deprieved (for driving) and my mind is not there (for rules of engagement and proper use of force) but they didn't care.

i called her last morning... we decided to give it a shot again... i was suppose to go see her at night... come afternoon and again she is not answering her phone while i am just sitting there waiting and missing work... this is fucked. i think i might go see her before she leaves for work.

No amount of talking will provide any relief, I don't think you should bother. Time is the only cure. I usually go with the estimate: However long you were with her, it will take the same amount of time away from her to get past.

For now re-focus and take care of yourself.

i believe it takes as many months to get over someone as you where with them years. So 5 months if you are in my boat Smile

but relax dude, even if it is over, you WILL find love again. After my first breakup I thought id never find it again and 4 months later I was happier than ive ever been in my life with a new girl. But then that ended too, but this time Im not so pessimistic because I know it will happen again eventually Smile

whoops, got longer than i thought, wall of text coming up, kinda...

damn. every break up sucks (well, at least if you're a living human being capable of emotions - not like some of those wannabe players who are completely unaware of something like a emotional connection to a human other than themselves.... *grumble* /rant)
eeh, sorry. where was i?
if you're anything like me (seeing as that really fucks over your live ie. work etc. that's something i can relate to) no amount of talking will help.
i mean, i've been with my ex for about 2 years, broke up with me last november (go ahead, the thread should still be in the bitching session somewhere ^^)
found a new girl, been with her since february and i'm good.
but (there's always a but, isn't there?) my ex still fucks with my head sometimes.
by now we're friends (seeing as she got dumped by her boyfriend three months ago, really helped me Twisted Evil ) but sometimes she's still in my head (then i usually go on a "what could have been" trip) which is completly unfair to my girlfriend, i know that, it's not like i choose those "trips". i love my girlfriend, i don't question that.
well, what i wanted to say, i think, is, that you will get over her, no doubt about it, you will find new love but it might take you a while to get her out of your head completly. (and for some people they never managed to do that)
but then again, my ramblings of a semi-madman never helped anybody anyway Very Happy

oh, and you might want consider therapy and/or (preferably and) anti-depressants
if it keeps interferring with your work and your day-to-day schedule for weeks, you should think about seeking help, i know i did, and it helped a lot... being depressive is no fun (just some friendly advice from somebody who's been there, done that...)

fuck drugs.. they dont do shit but offer a placebo. I highly recommend you just confide in friends and take time to enjoy yourself as much as possible to put her in the back of your mind. Dont go down the meds route.

i'm not saying "go ahead and pop some pills" (even though i have to admit it sounded like that... not my intention)
but if a therapist thinks it helps...
and btw. you know that depressions aren't only some psychic thingie?
there are neurobiological factors - things you can't put straight easily without medical treatment.
that's the one misconception about depressions most people have.
so anti-depressant offer more than a placebo effect.
i'm not saying he's suffering from depressions but the point is if you do it takes you a whole freaking while to realize and when you do you're most likely so far down you won't get yourself out there without help
but i agree with you, kaeye, you gotta get out there and do stuff and lord knows it doesn't matter a whole lot what you do, but if that don't work, one shouldn't be to proud or stubborn to go seek help.

You need to greafe (spelling) thats a very important part of getting over someone, but try and get out as soon as possible. If not to hit on chicks then atleast go out with your friends and have some fun. Sitting at home thinking what went wrong is the worse thing you could do.
Its over, give it some time then just move on.
I know its hard but you have to do it.

Many people that have been in your position will for sure tell you that when looking back, if they fucked up on a self pitty trip, they would of done things different a second time around, because well you could just end up with nothing totaly. Your job wont run off with another man..Listen to good advice now Smile just like when you were young and wouldnt listen to your parents lol, but later thought shit they were right all along. Razz

i will return to work sunday... i have been a mess for now... i have had maybe 400 calories in me in the last 3 days... where as i use to take in 4500 a day... i have slept maybe 5 hours... my hands shake from exhustion, i wanna sleep SO bad... BUT when the tv is off and i am not randomly browsing the web or playing game, the memories and shit return... specially when i am sleeping and it is just me and my thoughts... it is like my body wants to pass out but my mind will not let go. i can't describe the feeling.

i went to her house today cause she wouldn't pick up the phone.. gave her a letter i wrote about all this shit... she told me to never call her again, and she said she needs time to think... i said ok no more calls but i can't wait forever, she said she doesn't know how long it will take, maybe weeks, maybe months...

that is fucked, i can wait for her if i knew she would come back to me.. BUt if she dates or does anything else during this "break" period, then it is over. sorry but i dont believe in "breaks"" where you date other people to test waters.

as for anti depression pills... fuck that, i don't need that.. although i do consider drinking acid to wipe the memories off Smile (kidding don't call the OPP )

thank the fucking lord my court for tomorrow is cancelled... i can't stand sitting in a quite room with nothing to do but think.

so far, the ONLY things that help are games, a bit of movies although i drift off and when i go out with friends a bit...

this waiting for her game is hard though... its like, having a 40 to 60 percent chance of getting her back, but most likely i won't but i am getting my hopes up seriously... this way i can't and won't delete the pictures and stuff... i have moved them around so i don't see it but everything around me is connected to her.


bah sorry for the rants.

see i know you are right and i know the second time might be different, but this is the first time not the second.


my first "relationship" ( i don't consider dating a few weeks a relationship) was for 7 months... i caught her cheating with a friend of hers in a bar we went to sometimes... lol i walk in and here they are making out... before i could open my mouth his friends have broken two bottles over my head and i am laying down on the sidewalk with blood coming out the back of my head...

now, THAT did not hurt me, i had a physical pain for a day or two, but nothing emotional beacause i did not love her... this time its different.



the biggest shocker is that this is out of the blue. in 5 years we have NEVER had a "fight" where we scream at each other or one person doesn't call for days and shit. we never took a break and only had little arguements. she was like always up until saturday morning, then she went all crazy on me for issues that she apparently kept inside all this time and put on a happy face. that is decieving since how can i know there are serious complications if i dont see random fights and arguements leading to a breakup?

maybe she's trying to put the blame on you - who knows, maybe she doesn't even know herself. maybe she'll tell you, maybe not.

there's not much you can do about that, just go on live a life...

My brother was engaged to the same girl for 5 years, she was the same type ... always wanted to go out, get drunk with friends at clubs etc. while my bro is more of a 'stay at home and have a few drinks' kinda guy. She was really immature, apparently they were going to try to start a family and she still wanted the 'party life'.

So anyways, they finally broke up ... it was a big deal. But shortly after he found a new gf and now they are married just 6 months later Smile

So my point is, maybe you two weren't meant to be together.

I advise you take some time off of work and try to sort your feelings out. With your line of work its very dangerous to be feeling that way and you honestly sound borderline suicidal.

There's no quick fix for this pain all you can do is the natural healing cycle. Denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance you will go through them. Just please don't do anything drastic in the meantime.
