Ack! I've been dumped! I hate men!
All I get is "my feelings changed." That's it, nothing else!

Am I crazy for thinking that more explanation than that is required after being with someone for 8 months and telling each other you were in love?

It's what I get for being with someone several years younger - he was 20. I guess I've learned a lesson!

Bah! I'm bitter! Tell me something encouraging!

1. Something encouraging: Shrubbie only has 497 days left!

That's the best I can come up with right now.

I'm sorry to hear you got dumped. That always hurts!

Best wishes to you!

4. That does make me feel better!
I've been too inwardly focused. Time to be out in the world! Good things are happening. The country's moving left!

15. At current rates, only about 1700 more Americans should die on his watch
I get this figure by adding the totals from New Orleans, 9/11, and the military deaths in Iraq--about 8300, then dividing it by the 2423 days he's been in office. So only about 3.42 Americans die needlessly each day Bush wanders the corridors of power picking his nose and wiping his boogers on our national treasures.

1700 dead Americans from now, he'll be gone. Hoo-fuckin-ray. I don't have it in me to convert Bush days into dead Iraqi rates just now.

6. Getting dumped sucks no matter the reason given
I'm sorry and I guess the only thing I've got is realize how much better to learn it now than later when you might have a lot more invested in it. :hug:

Why are people so emotionally irresponsible?

16. ...or a very sad one?
I'm not sure there's a solution. I think our lifespans are WAY too short to sort through all the emotions and life experiences in order to best achieve happiness. I'm trying to do so in overdrive lol... Seriously, some people just don't want to deal with anything "heavy," and so at the sign of potential trouble, they flee inward or away.

11. Thanks! That's a great perspective.
I must say, I've never looked better, so it's a good time to be single, I suppose! lol...

18. Maybe I can set you up with my son and you can get him THE HELL OUT OF CINCINNATI!
Edited on Mon Sep-10-07 05:49 PM by mtnester
I have tried until I am blue. Stubborn as a mule he is. Hell, we live near Columbus...a MUCH more friendly town for him but NOOOOO..does he want to live near BORING Columbus?

OK, so he and I have had a fabulous week...I love him but this week he is driving me BATSHIT crazy. A mule AND he is being wishy washy.

Again, let me say I LOVE my son, but there are days....
