  1. I had one come back once... what you wrote is pretty accurate! Now I just need a poem for what happened 4 months later... ah, yes! lol should have known better wasting all my precious time you stupid liar
  2. "I held my life in a cup" ...hit that one right on the nose!
  3. I think it's pretty normal to wonder about that. As long as wondering doesn't progress into anything that might hurt your current relationship. Try not to dwell on it for too long!
  4. I'm with Iceman. He's not treating you very well.
  5. Of course relationships change you! It determines a big part of your lifestyle (daily habits, though processes). I don't think my personality has changed much, if at all. I am happy, but I would be happy with my life right now with or without my boyfriend. So "happier?" yeah, I think so. But I wouldn't be miserable without a relationship either. As far as being a better person... I think relationships can prevent people from being too self-absorbed. I think some people aren't as easily changed by others. Can't say it's never happened to me, but I learned the hard way that you're better off only changing for yourself, under your terms. [edit] ditto what caro said!
  6. facial hair... I'm good either way. It really depends on the person. My guy has a beard and I love it! If he trims it short it'll be scratchy for a few days (not my favorite part) but 99% of the time its long enough to just feel soft. Right now its about three times the size of this picture... I like his chest hair too -- it's no sweater!! It's pretty thin and he doesn't have any on his back and shoulders.
  7. hahaha No worries, dear Newo! My parents (and my boyfriend's, too) sleep in separate beds and sometimes go to sleep at different times. My parents have been married close to 30 years, and his have for close to 20 (I think). It's simply a matter of comfort to them. My dad snores horribly loud and twitches while he sleeps, so it keeps my mom awake. But while they're awake our parents get along perfectly well and spend tons of their non-working time together. At the same time, I can see how having separate bed times would fuel the fire in an unhealthy relationship.
  8. It's possible that you're feeling both humiliated and grieving for the lost love. You can multitask, right? =) I know if I were in your situation, it would take a lot longer than 3 months to come to terms with it, so hang in there. It'll pass. But if her engagement falls through and she comes crawling back to you, don't fall for it. Your relationship would never be the same, and what would stop her from doing it to you again?
  9. As the queen of sinus infections, I'll just say that they can pretty much floor you! And you're 16... whenever I started dating someone at that age it was almost always in groups. It would progress to one-on-one time after I got to know them better, but being in groups can take a lot of pressure off. I'm with soccer14, just ask her how she's feeling next time you see her.
  10. So I'm not the only one who feels physically sick when I feel jealous... good to know! I know it's hard, but stop assuming the worst! My boyfriend and I went to the same high school but didn't really know each other that well until a couple years after we graduated. He did the school news a few times a week so everyone knew who he was, and even though he denies it he was pretty popular. Whenever we go out he's running into people he used to be friends with and the girls always give him big hugs. I'm not typically a jealous person, but it used to drive me nuts... still bothers me from time to time but not as badly. Just remind yourself that he would probably feel the same way in your situation. In time you'll meet all of his friends and hear stories about them and they won't seem like a threat.
  11. My boyfriend and I go to the mall pretty often. Lately he talks about wanting new jeans even though he has about 20 pairs, and whenever we're shopping he'll spend so much time looking at jeans, mayyyybe try a pair on, but never buys them. I always want to say "Why do you even bother?" and I get pretty annoyed sometimes, but I still enjoy shopping with him. I think you're pretty normal there... but maybe you could still go shopping with him once in a while. He seems to enjoy your company. If you don't go into it expecting to be done in 20 minutes (I'm the same way! lol) you'll be able to enjoy your time more.
  12. Yay for you!! When you are ready for a relationship again, I think you'll be able to enjoy it so much more, if not on a completely new level.
  13. You're not "that" girl because I used to do it too. I've gotten a little better at keeping myself together over time, but it still sucks just as much. How long have you been together? I'd always be a wreck leaving when we first started seeing each other, so maybe it'll get easier for you over time?
  14. A friend of mine gave me this book a few years ago, "The Five Love Languages" by Gary Chapman. Basically, everyone communicates love differently and he breaks it down for you. -words of affirmation -quality time -gifts -acts of service -physical touch Most people connect with at least one of these. For some, all 5 might express love to them. Pay attention to the things that he does for you, because that often implies the kind of things he might like from you. If he used to leave you love notes, you could try leaving him a couple. Or he might feel most loved when you two simply spend time together, especially if you're doing something with him that he knows you don't particularly like (watching sports on tv?). Just try different things out! My boyfriend and I have a very physical relationship, and not just through sex. We're also pretty big on quality time. We like sitting at Barnes & Noble reading magazines, going for walks, and video games. We're nerds... =)
  15. I dated one guy in high school that was 4 or 5 inches shorter than me... even when we were sitting I towered over him! I'm 5'10 and my current boyfriend is about an inch and a half shorter. It doesn't bother me at all. When we first started dating it seemed to bother him a bit, but he doens't even bring it up anymore.
  16. Whether or not I want company when I'm sick depends on what kind of sick I am. If I've got the flu and am running to the bathroom to puke every half hour, or I'm contagious, I want to be alone. Anything else and I enjoy a little company. If you 2 aren't very close yet, I would just go by what she says. You could send a care package, depending on what she needs. Be creative!
  17. I would date me. I wouldn't ask myself out until I'd been friends with me for a while, because apparently I take some time to become attractive! But I think I'm a good girlfriend, and I know of at least one person that agrees!
  18. Her expectations are unrealistic. There are plenty of people out there that'll let you keep your friends, regardless of gender. It doesn't sound like she really even cares about you, and you deserve to be with someone who realizes your life does not revolve around them.
  19. Sounds like she doesn't know what she wants, so she'd better make up her mind. Ask her what's going on.
  20. My boyfriend just went back to school today too... I'm 100% feeling your pain! Luckily we had a good 3 weeks together so I can still reflect on that for now. But I have a feeling that tomorrow will be really hard for me. Classes start Monday and we both have pretty packed schedules. Last semester I wasn't in school and had a full-time job with weekends off, so we saw each other pretty frequently. But soon we'll both be working part-time and going to school full-time, and I won't be able to drive up to his place very often. Not looking forward to that... I know it won't affect our relationship much because we've done it before, but it still sucks to be apart for so long! (I know I'm preaching to the choir here lol) All I can tell ya is what lisica and daligal already said. Stay busy! I like to use this time to hang out with friends I haven't seen in a while. And I've been stitching all afternoon, making wonderful progress! Good luck with the "transition". You're very much not alone!
  21. Being skinny is over-rated. I'm 5'10, 130 lbs, size 6 jeans. My hip bones stick out like crazy. I can always see my ribs. Also, I might as well not even have boobs. lol I don't look sickly, and I work out enough to stay toned. But I have always wanted more meat on my bones and I hate when people ask me if I've lost weight. I'm 23 but think I look 17. You sound like you're healthy. Keep it up and be proud of what you have!!
  22. Tough thing to do... but necessary! I did it a while ago, too. I saved a single picture, but only because it summarizes our entire relationship and I wanted to keep it as a reminder to not let myself get into something like that again. Cheers to new beginnings!
  23. I'm ready to say farewell to 2006, but not good riddance! What a year... Be safe, everyone!
