Thanks twickster. I do feel relieved. In fact I feel happier today than I’ve felt for a very long time. Yet another thing telling me I’ve done the right thing.
Noone Special, I thought at one point that he did have respect for my religion. Until he started ridiculing it. He certainly acted as if he had respect for my religion. Until now. I do believe that he doesn’t “get it”, and until he does, (if he does), there is no way we can get back together.
Thanks Fran. I just knew that I couldn’t go through yet more anguish, and tears. When he called me on Friday night, drunk, whilst I was half alseep, which he didn’t realise, I just couldn’t cope. When I put the phone down, I cried, and the words which came to mind were “I hate you. I really really hate you. Fuck off and leave me alone”. That’s when I knew I had to end things.
I’m sure things will work out, and seeing as the future involves a DopeFest, it looks like the future is going to be good.
Long distance relationships are always difficult … and break-ups suck. Here’s hoping the future holds brighter things for you. (Quasars, perhaps? I seem to remember they’re pretty bright.)
His feelings about sex don’t surprise me, but his inability to put them in perspective and not gripe to you about them is what makes the boot in the ass so well-deserved.
You done right, Angua. The fact you feel relieved about it tells you so.
I wouldn’t give the sodding dolt a shot at another chance – it sounds to me like he’s already stomped too many into the mud.
So, do as bNCB** suggests – have some waffles, heavy on the syrup, or some other high-carbo treat, then wrestle your theory to the ground, and HAVE FUN!!! You deserve it.
I just saw this thread. I wish I had any useful advice to offer, but it would end up being a joke about mathmos explaining things to people, or judging someone on the basis of insuffucient evidence, so I’ll just go {{{{{Angua}}}}}.
Let us know how you feel after a couple of days, glad to be free or pining.
I know. I’m hoping there isn’t going to be a next time! Right now, I know that I still love him, and if he changed his attitude, we could work at it again. If he doesn’t, well then, I’ll just be this mad insane astrophysicist who flirts a lot, but never gets into a relationship.
