Oh, My Freaking God! (Looong!)

Barry…
you owe me a clean keyboard

Well wouldn’t that bring us right back around full circle to Oh, My Freaking God! :eek:

I think she’s on a completely different message board. I think she’s just posted her reply and the other members are telling her to take out the 6th paragraph and wishing her luck.

What, you mean one of those “how to completely unscrew a guy’s head and then screw it on again upside down and backward” advice boards? Could be…I’m thinking mod status.

Sorry, that was unkind and completely not nice. Please disregard previous post.

I’m worse than a hopeless romantic, I’m a hopeful one. I think things got away from her a little bit at the beginning and she’s on that other board asking how to reconnect with Davebear and win him back.

Yeah, that’s why I apologized. I’m very much hoping it was all just a case of “we both misunderstood what the other one was saying…” type of thing. Wow. I’m more protective of the people on this board than I knew.

Wow. I turn off the computer for the Sabbath and miss out on Dave’s e-mail.

I sure hope she replies, and especially that she replies positively.

**Raises hand as being in the Hopeful romantic pool!

Jesus! How funny! This is like a soap opera…hey here is another possibility. What if she DID answer and he is over there right now…as in, he went ther last night and never came home? Maybe Davey DOES have a better sex life than mine? HMMM? Now that would be a happpy ending.

Just imagine:

“Gee, honey – that was fantastic (and thanks for swallowing instead of spitting, by the way!) Now, you’ll have to excuse me – I’ve got to get home and tell 30,000 of my friends about last night…”

:smiley:

[Sorry about the keyboard, Wyatt!]

No way, miapiace, I am sure Dave would have sent off one more post before leaving. Oh and I just temporarily uncrossed my fingers for this one post :wink:

I’m really hoping it’s the whole “life got crazy then it was so long an all it felt weird to call back” thing…

Sorry, folks. I didn’t mean to leave you hanging. I just need some time to myself. No, there hasn’t been any response. But, I knew I was saying goodbye to her, when I sent the letter. I just didn’t expect it to hit me as hard as it did.

::sigh:: I’m sorry.

Well Dave, just keep telling yourself what SHE has missed out on. SHe never got the chance to even know y ou. And you only saw a part of her. She might not be as great as you think she is, obviously she isn’t very considerate.

Really though pull y ourself up by your boot straps and give yourself a pep talk. It’s HER loss - from a friend who has some experience dating…okay? Trust me on this one? When that little voice in your head starts telling you those creepy depressive things send him right back to the closet and just listen to me this time.

Maureen? Tanookie? Deb? Ya with me here? [Let’s all join together] IT’S HER LOSS!

I’ve been lurking in the thread on & off - damn right, it’s her loss! Unfortunately, I’ve had enough relationships & dates not work out to know that “Well, it’s really his/her loss” doesn’t do much, practically speaking.

But yeah. if she’s not considerate enough to just tell you that things weren’t working, then I dunno that she’s someone with whom to get involved.

Sorry, pumpkin. But at least this leaves you open for the admiring throngs. :wink:

Well, I’m sorry this has all ended this way. She really needed to at least be straight and tell him that she didn’t want to persue the relationship any further.

I’ve never been one for platitudes myself but she screwed herself by blowing ya off Dave! Not that I expect that makes you feel any better about the whole thing.

I hope you know, Dave, that we understand that the words are inadequate to take away the hurt. But we’ll be here for you while you’re putting your heart back together.

I don’t know, maybe I am just really narcisistic. Telling myself “It’s his loss” (accompanied by quite a few alcoholic embellieshments and a hell of a lot of my friends) always works wonders for me! After a while I’m always slurrrrrring …“awwwfuck’em…I didn really likem ennyway…wassssisname agin?”

But then that is me…Hey Dave? Want to go get drunk with the “Girls gone Wild” crew? Might not help but you are sure to forget…something anyway~! :slight_smile:
