Thanks, yea, it's better it happened before marriage too. Thanks for reading it.
Damn, SA210, that's a pretty messed up story. You can at least be happy you took back the Mrs. Pacman arcade set when you broke up.
Seriously though, she did you a major favor. You should be thankful she dumped you. That she dumped you hardcore is even better. That was the best outcome you could have hoped for.

Could not have said it better-- I would have never left my ex. I am thankful everyday that he left.
i hate public proposals.
i would stay away from corny theatrics. If you are going to propose, do it in private between the two of you. Tell her a romantic speech coupled with a small story of both of you and how much you appreciate her. i would find a special and unique way to do it. that's what i did for mine, anyway
There are two sides to every story. I wonder how ur x see its.
After doing some thinking I'lll bet it was kind of hot to bang a chick with a hump on her back, you could pretend shes quasimoto or some . Man....
Crappy story SA210! I'm sure you learned a hard lesson from this. Hope you're little girl is o.k., and that the didn't get a chance to f&#k her up!![]()
Wow man, this thing really depressed me. I don't even want to date anymore after reading this, honestly.![]()
Brutal story SA210. I hope it works out better for you and for your little girl next time.
Horrible stories...
It really amazes me to see how many people nowadays have such ty morals.
My girlfriend showed me this.
A toast to the nice guys...
Ode to the Nice Guys
This rant was written for the Wharton Undergraduate Journal
This is a tribute to the nice guys. The nice guys that finish last, that never become more than friends, that endure hours of whining and ing about what assholes guys are, while disproving the very point. This is dedicated to those guys who always provide a shoulder to lean on but restrain themselves to tentative hugs, those guys who hold open doors and give reassuring pats on the back and sit patiently outside the changing room at department stores. This is in honor of the guys that obligingly reiterate how cute/beautiful/smart/funny/sexy their female friends are at the appropriate moment, because they know most girls need that litany of support. This is in honor of the guys with open minds, with laid-back at udes, with honest concern. This is in honor of the guys who respect a girl’s every facet, from her privacy to her theology to her clothing style.
This is for the guys who escort their drunk, bewildered female friends back from parties and never take advantage once they’re at her door, for the guys who accompany girls to bars as buffers against the rest of the creepy male population, for the guys who know a girl is fishing for compliments but give them out anyway, for the guys who always play by the rules in a game where the rules favor cheaters, for the guys who are accredited as boyfriend material but somehow don’t end up being boyfriends, for all the nice guys who are overlooked, underestimated, and unappreciated, for all the nice guys who are manipulated, misled, and unjustly abandoned, this is for you.
This is for that time she left 40 urgent messages on your cell phone, and when you called her back, she spent three hours painstakingly dissecting two sentences her boyfriend said to her over dinner. And even though you thought her boyfriend was a chump and a jerk, you assured her that it was all ok and she shouldn’t worry about it. This is for that time she interrupted the best killing spree you’d ever orchestrated in GTA3 to rant about a rumor that romantically linked her and the guy she thinks is the most repulsive person in the world. And even though you thought it was immature and you had nothing against the guy, you paused the game for two hours and helped her concoct a counter-rumor to spread around the floor. This is also for that time she didn’t have a date, so after numerous vows that there was nothing “serious” between the two of you, she dragged you to a party where you knew nobody, the beer was awful, and she flirted shamelessly with you, justifying each fit of reckless teasing by announcing to everyone: “oh, but we’re just friends!” And even though you were invited purely as a symbolic warm body for her ego, you went anyways. Because you’re nice like that.
The nice guys don’t often get credit where credit is due. And perhaps more disturbing, the nice guys don’t seem to get laid as often as they should. And I wish I could logically explain this trend, but I can’t. From what I have observed on campus and what I have learned from talking to friends at other schools and in the workplace, the only conclusion I can form is that many girls are just illogical, manipulative es. Many of them claim they just want to date a nice guy, but when presented with such a specimen, they say irrational, confusing things such as “oh, he’s too nice to date” or “he would be a good boyfriend but he’s not for me” or “he already puts up with so much from me, I couldn’t possibly ask him out!” or the most frustrating of all: “no, it would ruin our friendship.” Yet, they continue to lament the lack of datable men in the world, and they expect their too-nice-to-date male friends to sympathize and apologize for the men that are jerks. Sorry, guys, girls like that are beyond my ability to fathom. I can’t figure out why the connection breaks down between what they say (I want a nice guy!) and what they do (I’m going to sleep with this complete ass now!). But one thing I can do, is say that the nice-guy-finishes-last phenomenon doesn’t last forever. There are definitely many girls who grow out of that train of thought and realize they should be dating the nice guys, not taking them for granted. The tricky part is finding those girls, and even trickier, finding the ones that are single.
So, until those girls are found, I propose a toast to all the nice guys. You know who you are, and I know you’re sick of hearing yourself described as ubiquitously nice. But the truth of the matter is, the world needs your patience in the department store, your holding open of doors, your party escorting services, your propensity to be a sucker for a pretty smile. For all the crazy, inane, absurd things you tolerate, for all the situations where you are the faceless, nameless hero, my accolades, my acknowledgement, and my gra ude go out to you. You do have credibility in this society, and your well deserved vindication is coming.

es be hatin' y0.
I am glad to see that there are stories that are just as bad and worse than mine.
wow, it never ceases to amaze me what some people will endure to avoid the inevitable heartbreak for a little while longer.
reminds me of how lucky I am. I gotta send a text right now.
SA210 I cried for you friend. You should have killed her and spread her body thoughout Texas.
You know what gets me? The fact that genuinely nice guys are too nice to call out girls on all of the that they do in that essay. I don't know why some women fall for assholes, but I wish they would get called out on the fact that they're wasting their time when there's an alternative.
Then again, some people thrive on drama ...
damn
Thanks Manny, I appreciate it.
Sorry, I thought about posting here about it for weeks, so when I saw a "breakup" thread, I figured I post here rather than posting my own thread.
Thanks. Believe me, I hate her for what she did and the trash that she is.
Great post tp2021.
SA210 whatever you do don't let it linger. Don't give it a shred more of value by continuing to let it bother you. Don't give that the benefit of this affecting you ever again. I know first hand how hard it is to get over even the most absurd and unreasonable cir stances. . THAT. .
what about becoming gay?
now seriously... SA210 FTW
You should try to forget about it, bro. That story made me think a lot, so I could imagine you still think about it a lot.
im not saying you should have but i would understand if you did.

What would calling them out accomplish? It wouldn't change anything.
Well someone is.
Seriously though, Thanks. I hear you.![]()
