Do you believe in True Love?

[Shorin Ryuu]

Yes, but I'm young in comparison to a lot of the older people in this board...(maybe old in comparison to the younger?).

[monkeygirl]

Ahh youth...

 

Please don't take this the wrong way monkeygirl, but you're just too young to be worrying about true love and Mr. Right.

 

Slow down and enjoy life a little!

 

Trust me, I know neither of these guys are "Mr. Right", but they're not exactly Mr. Wrong either.

[GrrrArg]

Date girls instead, I prefer them.

[monkeygirl]

I think I'll pass, thanks.

 

I know there are plenty of good guys out there, I'm just not sure if this is one of them.

[monkeygirl]

Well, it's official. I'm single. hehe

 

Apparently, Mr. Cruise wanted a relationship...just not with me. He "met" someone and already asked her to the prom! So much for being paranoid about relationships...

 

Oh well. I'm a little angry, but I'm going with the "his loss" mentality. It's sort of working.

[aefibird]

Sorry to hear that Tammy. Your policy of considering it "his loss" is the best way to go.

 

He don't know wot he be missin', girl!!

[battousai16]

right on, monkey girl. time heals all wounds, i suppose.

 

how are things going with your lady friend, DM? not that it's any of my buisness, i suppose...

[Drunken Monkey]

...she's ok.

 

helped her pack up some stuff ready to take to her place later tomorrow/today.....

 

um, sunday.

 

spent another loong day with her today.

 

had dinner, chilled in front of ps2 for a bit.

 

talked about nothing in particular.

 

stuff normal friends would do.

 

i'm gonna have to admit that i haven't actually said anything to her...

 

no grand outburst expressing my feelings.

 

the thing is, me and her, we've kinda gone around this little circle before.

 

and i know all too well that if someone isn't interested, there's not much one can do to change that.

 

to her i am just a friend.

 

she relies on me as a friend.

 

she trusts me as a friend.

 

i really don't want to complicate things.

 

i think what i mean is, i am prepared to let it go.

 

she's at the stage in her life when things are still quite hectic.

 

she's working this year then going to cardiff to complete her architecture part 2.

 

i'll hopefully be working this year before again going somewhere to complete my part 2.

 

basically, things aren't stabe.

 

she already has a lot on her mind and i really don't want to add to her pressures.

 

i know i am not the best person for her

 

and i'm not just saying that for sympathy;

 

it is true.

 

i am a complete alan when it comes to my past relationships and she knows about it all.

 

i think the best thing i can do is let her get on with the things she needs to do.

 

in the meantime i also need to get on with the things i need to do.

 

like i said guys, life isn't like in the movies.

 

sometimes, even the hero doesn't get the girl.

 

you could say that i had my chance the first time around and i blew it already.

[battousai16]

well, to quote the great philosopher obi wan kenobi, "you must do what you feel is right, of course".

 

and you know your situation far better than i do.

 

but i still hold you have to at least try the ending before you just declare that it wont work. y'know, again, i guess. maybe not.

 

i can say that i was more or less in the same situation, only in reverse. she told me she still liked me and what not, and we're still good buddies. i saw her last night. then again, you could play that "you're only 18" card...

 

at any rate, it's always good that you're at least friends, eh? i guess only you know what's best.
