*Girls are great, i'm a douche*

ralphcore [Edit] [Delete] 42 replies 12:56, 5 June '06

Today i find myself in a bit of a pickle, ladywise. I've been having fun with this wicked babez who i met just over 3 wks ago now (subject of my *I hate txt messages* thread) and i really like her cos she is awesomely HORT, mega smart and it just seems like im able to get along with her so easily. All's good basically.
However, exactly the morning after after I met her in one of those meat market clubs you get in the city - I got the call from my ex!!!
To make a really long, lame story - less long and slightly less lame: I want to know the best way to 'dump' (argh) his girl i really like (?!?) in the nicest way possible cos im a good guy?? At the minute im doing the manly/mousely thing by turning my phone off :(

I know that i'm more than likely to bump into her in the future because we work and socalise in close proximity to eachother and i would like to remain fwends with her and perhaps keep her on the reserves bench?!? I wish i was a real player then all this wouldnt bother me.

    • Don't just abandon it

      print it out and eat it!

      TheoGB @ralphcore | 5 Jun '06, 12:58 | X
  • get your relationships manager to transfer her

    to another part of London.

    John_Brainlove | 5 Jun '06, 12:57 | X
    • I

      fired her :(

      ralphcore @John_Brainlove | 5 Jun '06, 12:59 | X
      • Do the obvious thing!

        Go out for a drink and explain.
        It'll be fine.

        John_Brainlove @ralphcore | 5 Jun '06, 13:00 | X
  • why are you dumping this nice girl?

    for your ex? i don't get it.

    84joe | 5 Jun '06, 12:59 | X
    • I think because she's a wicked babez. I've never met one, but it sounds like a bad thing

      Judge_B @84joe | 5 Jun '06, 13:00 | X
  • ...

    I would have thought the solution was obvious: You tell this chick straight up you can't go out with her because you're still nursing a deep, aching love for your ex. Be sure to use the words "I just can't get involved right now, it hurts too much".

    You will get so many points that she'll practically force you to go back to your ex. After this relationship fails because one or both of you are losers, you will have enough points in the bank still that the new chick will feel sorry for you and feel she needs to console you. This is the door you must step through.

    End Communication.

      will you be my mentor?

      84joe @Stealthy | 5 Jun '06, 13:04 | X
    • merci

      "I just can't get involved right now, it hurts too much" via TXT message! i am a man.

      ralphcore @Stealthy | 5 Jun '06, 13:05 | X
      • no

        But it has just dawned on me that turning off my phone for the past 3 days is the wrong - im going to phone her after work and explain.

        ralphcore @wishpig | 5 Jun '06, 13:14 | X
        • ...

          The phrase "I know it looks like I'm avoiding you, but..." will probably come in handy there.

    • We know, Daniel

      • thanks, John

        that's a massive weight off my mind.

    • I'm not gay

      but I'll learn

    • haha

      guntrip, you're the only person i know who quotes the simpsons more than i do.

      homesick_alien @guntrip | 5 Jun '06, 13:27 | X
  • I can't really advise you just now

    But you may as well be honest and say you have a chance to get back together with your ex, blah blah blah.

    I don't go out with any girl who I know in my heart I would want to dump if one of a handful of girls I know were suddenly interested in me. It doesn't matter that they never will be (again), it's knowledge that some people just aren't quite the right person.

    Take this knowledge with you. Clearly that girl wasn't quite right if your ex has the ability to make you dump her.

  • Three weeks

    is still within the accepted time period for one's mind not to be certain re. the relationship. Therefore, it is normal for a relationship to finish without a need for a long-winded and substantial explanantion.

    Mr_JDTraynor | 5 Jun '06, 13:03 | X
    • TROOF

      to that!! (3 wks 3days / 7 x sex)

      • what kind of wacky equation is that?

        doesn't prove anything.

        although it sounds like more fun than most of the maths i know..

        guntrip @ralphcore | 5 Jun '06, 13:25 | X
        • the only maths you know is

          vodka + redbull = :)

          yo_soy_welshmun @guntrip | 5 Jun '06, 13:27 | X
          • sadly

            very true.

            guntrip @yo_soy_welshmun | 5 Jun '06, 13:30 | X
          • wut about the REAL truth

            red bull + people = bad breath

            84joe @yo_soy_welshmun | 5 Jun '06, 13:40 | X
          • Your equation is a little off

            It should be something like:

            night out = (vodka + redbull)^2 - ((embarrassing actions seeming sensible) x (alcohol intake))^3

            While the latter two factors are small, over time they take over and remove the fun section of the equation delivered by the vodka + redbull...

            TheoGB @yo_soy_welshmun | 5 Jun '06, 13:59 | X
            • I think the fun section was removed before got off the title line

              John_Brainlove @TheoGB | 5 Jun '06, 14:00 | X
              • *you

                John_Brainlove @John_Brainlove | 5 Jun '06, 14:00 | X
  • no no

    Wicked babez = rad thing = good. But its 3wks of fun Vs a longer running established relationship / history if you will. eep.

  • what is 'douche'?

    IndieAndy_Jones | 5 Jun '06, 14:04 | X
    • ...

      Something that girls don't really like, but have to put up with from time to time. So in a way all men are like douches.

      Stealthy @IndieAndy_Jones | 5 Jun '06, 14:06 | X
      • a period?

        is that a douche?
