Friscodj and Heloloadies, I dont know how this happened. I got off work last night, I was about to go run, and she calls. She was suposed to take a week or 2 or more to figure things out. A total of 4 1/2 days of NC went and she called. She was mumbling something and then I said "spit it out." Her first words were "I want to be with you." She expected me to have a happy voice or a feeling of elation, but I was struck. Everything I expected was wrong. She said she prayed about things a lot, and she is a peace with herself. I told her about how I tryed to figure her out and my conclusion was that she fell out of love with me but hasn't realized it yet. I mentioned that she dumped me but hadn't realized it yet. She was a bit frustrated and upset at my reaction, she thought I would say "GGGGGREAT, LETS DO THIS!" or something to that effect, you understand. But I was more on guard, and have every reason right to be. One of the last things she said to me was "Dont sound so happy." I can't believe this, I blocked her on facebook yesterday before reading if I should or not, I wanted her "out of sight, out of mind." It helped. We are supposed to meet up tongiht to talk, and her best friend is in town too, and I am 100% sure her best friend got to the bottom of her issues and made her realize some things. But it still irks me that she couldn't do it on her own; its that someone had to tell her what to do if you love someone. She isn't stupid, she knows, but again, this is all speculation. I am going to question her some more tonight with her friend there, and I know she is going to try to not see things how I see them and will assume, by me questioning her motives, that I don't love her. Certainly not the case, I love her with all my heart. But still, questioning gets to the bottom of these issues, because I have no intentions of trying again with this woman if it simply came down to her best friend "convincing" her to go out with me. I also want to make sure she isn't acting on her "missing you" emotions, because she DOES miss me, but I want to be sure she's not acting on them out of fear. Shoot me now?

I understand everything you are saying. About her reservations, I think I aught to cut her a bit of slack, because before , the first time around, she handed me her heart on a platter and I didn't quite bite. Now roles were reversed. I can see how she may be not-so-quick to give it up. I have a couple important, yet no so important questions. We are both on facebook, last night I blocked her on it, meaning we are no longer friends and I am "invisible" to her. Thing though, is that she has 2 roomates I am friends with, I should block them too? Because while we were broken up the first time, she would look at my profile under their name. I can set a "limited" profile for them I guess. And another question....She thinks I am basically sitting by my phone and waiting and expecting her to call and tell me she's ready. But you and friscodj are the only ones telling me otherise, but I trust your judgement. You were right before, when I posted under a different name on enotalone. But should I call her and say "hey (her name), I am hurting right now because I can't take this pain of waiting for you to call me while I am in limbo. thereforeeee I can only treat this as a breakup." Or should I not let her know I am hurting and just treat this as a breakup (because it essentially is) and then I am prepared for her to call and say its over, and I can say "Yea I knew you would say that, because you know you dumped me all along." Act aloof about it? Thing is is this....If i DO call her and say "hey i am hurting I am treating this as a breakup because it is what you did", she will try to use guilt on me and say "well I guess we are broken up then huh" or "ok i guess if this is the way it has to be" then I will look like the bad guy because it makes it look like I gave her an ultimatum and now I "dumped" her. KNOW what I am saying, I know this is all petty b ull * * * * but its still a bit important. The good that comes from telling her I am done waiting is that it shows I am not wiling to put up with this crap and my self respect returns. Or i keep her in the dark, and she thinks I am waiting around and then when she calls I will know what she is going to say. Sorry if this is confusing....
I still do not get why she says she wants to live with me one day, cant picture a future without me in it, has talked about marrying me, but can't make it happen right now. Theres still a part of me that doesnt want to take it personally, but you guys have opened up my eyes some, because I am thinking with emotions, you are thinking with logic and rationale. Cut me a bit of slack hehe Maybe she feels horrible for just walking away completely because she knows I am closer to her than anyone else, I have gone further sexually with her than anyone else, and she doesn't want to throw it all away just because she thinks in the back of her mind "i am not the one." But then Ive heard her say "it would be easier to walk away and chalk it up." So she cares about me in some regard. I predict she will call on New years eve, drunk, and say something....

Can you or heloladies give me insight into the hypocrysies of our IM conversation, since you said there was too much to write. I am guessing I will be moved on and then she will want back in, and I will be weak. I feel that girls have a radar as to knowing or sensing when a guy is over them.
-
She is supposed to get back to me, I estimate in the upcoming few weeks here, with her final answer. The thing is this, she tells me she loves me, her feelings haven't changed, its just that her heart is telling her one thing and her brain is telling her another. She doesn't know why. Her friends do not like me either because they all found out, when she found out about some things I had written on here which went into too much detail, in which I apologized for. Maybe she was too violated by some of the things she saw. Horrible luck on my part, but I know to not make the same mistake. This was over 3 weeks ago. So heloladies and friscodj, you both believe she has moved on. Man that is the pits. I mean I didn't want to take her actions personally because I thought this had to do with her daddy issues, or commitment phobia, I don't know. She has told me she wants to live with me one day and can't picture a future without me, so is she just saying this so I am her back burner guy? She is one girl that I do not see playing games like that, she is very honest. But who can you trust anymore, yanno? Maybe she was too hurt the first time by me being very un-emotional and now I am the man she wanted all along but the problem is that her feelings could have waned, or she got freaked out because no one has ever gotten as close to her as I. She said her feelings hadn't waned though, ahhhhhh what do I do???? I am prepared for her to tell me that she is done with me, I am not afraid, I don't feel the need to get more off my chest unless my emotions take over and her hypocrises take over me and I call them out. Boy, being me suck real bad right now.

I mentioned to her how she was starting to lead a 100% controlled life, and she likes every aspect of it right now, except realizing it was pushing me away. The one she loves. Her father was very controlling, and that may be where some of the daddy issues are coming out. She wanted me to tell her (if we were together) if I thought she was out of line. Meaning this....She is a hardcore track athlete and is very focused on herself, and she wants me to tell her that an hour of sleep she lost by being with me is not a big deal. Its like I have to convince her things she once WANTED to do she shouldn't be in a tizzy about, and now they feel --to me, as chores to her. Her friends had told her "hey if you really love him like you say you do, you should try this." This is where I feel her love really isn't there, it may be a lost love she is trying to rekindle, or she is in denial about. She no longer WANTS to do things, or try, and ultimately it may be because I hurt her too bad from the
1st time we went out. At least I can walk away knowing I have no regrets, I was the man she wanted me to be and she didn't take him, on our 2nd trial. Now I am a man who is willing to love, show that love, and make someone feel special, and I am hoping I get that in return. Just not going to happen today. I feel I am going to be alone for a while....
-
Okay, simply put, for anyone who thinks it is important, I think she has some daddy issues. Abused and neglected as a child, the whole nine yards. How much that affects her now, I don't know. She appears to be over a lot of things, and does not talk to her father anymore, but it may have shaped her. Maybe she got scared because I was able to get so close to her the 2nd time around, and she ran away. Promiscuiosness I imagine could happen during our space apart.

I will be brief
Dated a girl for 6 months. She fell in love right away. I was feeling pressure to be in love the same, and her nagging pushed me away. She eventually dumped me after being hurt for too long with my inability to process emotions to her. We went 3 months of NC. She dated a guy. We hooked up 6 weeks ago, and agreed to take things slowly. I told her I was a changed man, and I proved to her by by actions and words I was the man she always wanted. This time around, I was in her shoes, and she was the one being reserved. A couple times she would say "I am content where I am at in life right now, I like having control over my life." I would get set back. After 4 weeks I said I had enough, she bought more time from me saying that she needed it. I spun my wheels longer, I know she was now feeling pressure from me because I was hurting over it. I try to walk away again to elicit a yes or no response instead of the middle ground we were on, this time she says goodbye. I am furious, I felt so lead on. Thing is, is that she talks about being afraid of letting go of me, she can't picture a future without me in it, and wants to marry me one day. So she isn't a commitment phobe. She did just graduate college 2 weeks ago, so maybe she is searching for herself and is in a crisis right now. Maybe I am in denial? I want to believe she was more reserved this time around with her feelings because before, she put her neck out, and had her heart on a platter, and I didn't take it. This time around, I showed her all my love and I didn't feel the same reciprocation back, but it may be because she's afraid of the "old" me.
Right now, I am giving her space. I knew she wanted space for a while now, but she was too afraid out of fear, that I would lose my feelings for her, or find someone else. Now it seems she isn't so afriad, I feel she feels she has me in her retainer at all times and I will come back to her. Not the case. The ball is in her court. Of course I want her to figure out why she isn't wanting to commit right now, and maybe this space she will figure some things out. Her friends and my friends do not like us together, and I tryed to tell her that things like that should not matter. I don't think it wil lsway her, but it does make things tougher.
The last convo we had which was today:
her: hey you
me: hello
her: ok so ill tell you what i have been thinking
me: ok shoot
her: well, i know that i have feelings for you, i know that i still love you, i know that i hvent been showing it, and i know that you feel crapy about it
her: i too feel crapy about it
her: cause i know what you feel like
me: gotcha
her: i want things to change
me: thats a good sign
her: im not mad that you talked to your pops that was prob a good idea
her: i want to figure out the reason i feel the way i do, and fix or address it whatever needs to happen
her: i do think that it may take some time
me: ok
her: i dont want to hurt you ne more in the process
her: i am afraid of losing yo u
me: ok
her: but i think that i need to take the time, and pray that the love we do have for each other is strong enough to keep us together
me: ok
her: i mean i have to trust it, and pray that God is stronger than my * * * *ty self
her: what do you think about that
her: you there?
me: yes....
her: im killing you arent i?
me: nah
me: im prepared for any response
me: im fine with anything
me: so what does this all mean?
her: honey im sorry, i just think that if we want this to work...and i think we both do...then we have to have a healthy relationship, and that means i have to be 100%willing to do this, not because i have a need for you in my life like filling a void, but because being together is the best thing for both of us
her: i know that we can make each other happy
her: i want to be there for you and i want this realationship to be healthy, because i dont want to just get rid of it
me: ok
me: dont be sorry tho
her: i am but im not
me: hmm. ok
her: i am because i know how you feel, and i dont want to hurt you but im not because i want what is best for us in the long run
me: gotcha
her: and i feel like if i "force" this then it will end bad...again
her: how much do you hate me right now
her: ?
her: do you feel like i honestly care or do you feel like im just being mean?
me: my 110% will make up for your 90%
her: no
her: shut it hehe
her: alright
me: ok
her: so do we cut all things off, or talk or no\
her: i dont know what you can handle, and what is too much like friends
me: yo utell me
her: i know that i want to be able to talk to you but i dont know if you feel like that will cause you more hurt
me: well ultimately are you looking to just be friends with me
her: i am?
me: im asking
her: no no
her: i want to get these feelings figured out so that we can be together
me: dont pawn this on me, i can handle anything
her: im not, meaning too
her: ok
her: im sorry
me: do u not have faith in me u think
her: i do have faith in yuo
her: a lot
her: ok
her: well the i think ill take some time, if things cross your mind, i want you to feel free to talk to me
me: what does this mean then
her: i need time, and im going to have faith that things will workout just the way they are suppose to
me: so you think that by having an unhealthy relationship now it will cause a healthy relationship down the road
me: ?
her: no
her: i think that we should take some time
her: because i want to have a healthy relationship, and i think that having a unhealthy one now will ruin that for the future
me: so what does this mean
me: you cant be rationale with love
her: haha, maybe that is why i have no freakin answer....lol,
me: tryign to be rationale , like iwas, giving conditions, makes it seems like its a matrix, but love isnt part of the matrix
her: oh boy
her: haha
me: so what do i do or you do to keep from having an unhealthy one
her: ok, well i think we should take a week, pray, and then take the time to understand what is going on in my freakin head
her: and then talk
her: what do you think?
me: i say a few days or a week to you sometimes, and you say that things dont change in a weeks time
her: i know
her: well how long do you think?
her: or do you not think time is the answer?
me: you mean, u think i think time isnt an issue, its either your in denial about your feelings or something?
her: no, i think time is what i need
me: well because i love you i will give u al lthe time in the world
me: up until age 38 (we are both 23)
her: haha

her: am sayin that i hope i call you and i am ready
her: that is what i want to happen and i am sure you do to
her: im not tryin to be nice here
her: just honest

Is this a glorified breakup, like letting me down easy? I am left hanging now. I know the best thing to do is move on, make myself better, get out, and have fun. I dont need to be told to do those things. But I need to know what you all think. If u need addn info shedding light into her childhood, I can do that, it may matter, who knows.

Anyone, can anyone else shed light on this. Need more info?

anyone else?

Try to make this short...
dated a girl for 6 months, we broke up due to problems with me not showing love and herself being very nagging. 3 months of NC passed. we hung out for another month after hooking up one night. We worked thru our problems. After 3 or 4 weeks i wanted a definitive answer if she wanted to be in a relaionship with me or not. she hates ultimatums. but she somehow got me to give her more time, in that she thought she would eventually "come around." another 2 weeks pass. i say i had enough, i feel strung along. at that point she wants me because i let go, and she cant grasp the concept of my all or nothing. she thinks i should give her all the time in the world. she says she wants me and we talk another week. I feel lead on again because of her I love you's and other things she says. I say I have had enough (3rd time now.) she replies "i guess this means goodbye." i am upset.
she had a rough upbringing and was abused and i do not know if that is a cause for her commitment phobia. she talks about how she cant picture a future without me, she talks about wanting to live with me one day, talks about marriage one day, tells me she loves me and misses me, and even says she WANTS to be in a relationship with me right now, but she can not figure out whats holding her back. is she in denial --meaning she thinks shes in love with me but really isnt?
im going to talk with her in a couple days about her self image issues she has and how they scare me. i think she needs some counseling on some certain things, she has no balance in her life, a bit OCD. i know i can not let her keep telling me what i want to hear, i told her to stop with the i love you's until/if she wants a commited relationship with me. and there are no other people she is interested in, thats the thing. maybe she's too focused on herself, to want someone in her life. she's scared to death of me being out of her life, so i feel like even if one day she wants to commit, it will only be out of fear of losing me.
help anyone?

does having sex on one's period greater increase the chances of a UTI?
