What do you do when?

[MDC 7,115]

You're missing someone horribly, but you're never going to see her again and she doesn't want you in her life anymore? Yes I know this is going to get a lot of jokes about blowup dolls and being gay or whatever - I expect it and don't really care. I'm also drunk off my arse.

[Jessy 0]

You get really drunk. Maybe you talk about it, maybe you don't. Things will look better tomorrow. Then maybe it's longer until you feel that way again. Or it's not so bad the next time.

 

Eventually, you get over her.

[MDC 7,115]

Well that sure sucks. I was hoping there was a magic pill or something.

[Jessy 0]

Well that sure sucks. I was hoping there was a magic pill or something.

 

You and me both.

[Patriotsfatboy1 1,432]

Get over it. Days will come and they will go. The sun will rise and the sun will set. If you hinge your entire life on one person you will be disappointed when they are not around. Be a good person, do good things, and enjoy good times. Those are person-independent.

My wife loves that movie.

 

Seriously MDC, you didn't want it when you were sober, you want it when you are drunk. Do the math.

[redtodd 7]

In the past, I would just kill a pet of hers. It always made me feel better.

[NewbieJr 541]

After you've exhausted every possible way of getting her back, including a "from the heart" mix tape of "special" songs, flowers, a Kasey Kasem very-special dedication, ect., you simply resign yourself to the fact that you have no shot.

Sometimes it helps to kill her so that no one else can have her either.

[Electric Mayhem 35]

Go rub one out and the feelings go away. Thought this was common knowledge...

[hoytdwow 202]

Is this the girl you complained about last week who was spending too much time with you?

[RLLD 4,143]

Stick your finger in her ass....

[paulinstl 296]

After work today, go buy a liter of cheap vodka, a used .38 snub-nose, check into a fleabag hotel. Drink the vodka, call your ex several times telling her you will always love her, then swallow the .38 and pull the trigger.

 

Or sack-up and get over your whining Dude.

[Electric Mayhem 35]

Which is the reason this is probably a fishing trip.

 

Whatevah.

[MDC 7,115]

Hell no.

 

Amazing how much better I feel now that I'm not drunk off my ass on gin.

[davebg 0]

Hell no.

 

Amazing how much better I feel now that I'm not drunk off my ass on gin.

So, then this is your imaginary GF who moved down south?

How the Fock did we go from American men storming the beaches of Normandy and fighting to the death at Iwo Jima to this pathetic excuse for a man in such a short time? 1- 1/2 generations?   We’re doomed. Crying on a message board like a bich. 

[jerryskids 6,550]

I miss everyone in this thread.   

[MDC 7,115]

I met my wife six months after posting this thread - we’ll be married 17 years this June.  

Also, rent free.

How the fock did we go from American men mauling each other at Gettysburg and fighting to the death the Alamo to this pathetic excuse for a man who spends his days on a low-rent, lightly trafficked message board, digging up posts from almost 20 years ago and burning up the Internet to research the hair color of other Geeks' wives and ex-wives.

Get off your ass and go outside, for fock's sake.

 Unoriginal Rusty has to chime in! Lol

[cmh6476 1,010]

I learned through experience that once a woman gets to that point there is nothing you are going to do to change her mind.

The best thing you can do is be your best you.  That's who she fell in love with anyway, and if you figure out how to engage when she allows it (take advantage of the limited opportunities you get and not be pushy about it) you might gain traction and be able to pique her interest again.  Maybe.

There's no way to talk your way out of being dumped.

With that mindset in mind, years ago a girl I'd been dating for nine months suddenly shut it down, and here's how the convo went:

RING RING!

Rusty: Newsroom, Rusty speaking.

Girl: Hey, you got a minute?

Rusty: Sure!

Girl: I'll just come out and say it: I don't think we should see each other anymore. I've been thinking about it a lot lately, and I think it's best for us to just go our separate ways.

Rusty: OK!

(Awkward silence.)

Girl: Um ... uh ...  ... well, I've really enjoyed our time together, but I just think it's best that we don't date anymore.

Rusty: OK! I understand. I wish you the best!

(More awkward silence.)

Girl: Um, don't you want to talk about it?

Rusty: Not really. You have your reasons, and I respect whatever those reasons are and wish you the best!

Girl: Well this seems like something we should talk about. 

Rusty: I don't feel the need to talke about it. Hey, I've got to get back to work. Take care!

Girl: Well ... ok ... bye ...

CLICK!

Three days later I came home to fine a five-page, hand-written love letter from her scrolled up and wedged into my front-door handle. I barely glanced at it before turning it into an origami boulder and hitting a bank shot off a wall and into the trash.

A few weeks later I heard from a mutual friend that she was all devastated and heartbroken.

This is actually a good post from rusty.  

In that situation you have to read the situation and understand desperation only digs yourself deeper.  Trying to please someone who says they dont want to be with you in order to win them back is the absolute worst thing a man can do.  Unless of course you are married and have kids and you need to try and see if you can save it.  Even then its probably not the right way to go about it.  

I got heartbroken by my HS GF.  But I was like 19.  If I know what I do now, I would have approached that differently.   I was fairly upset but again I didnt know a ton more than her until that point.  We went out for like 3 years.  And it was a youth thing.  She had a different idea of the way forward than I did and she realized that.  And that was fine in hindsight.  

I would tell any young lad that is heartbroken to put on his best tough face and dont act like a bltch.  When its over its over.  Act a bit aloof yet nice.  Go out with some class and make her feel like she made a mistake.  

Go nail some other broad and get over it.

I almost quoted Rusty but had a slightly different take on his story (real or not). Everything you posted is spot on but I was going to approach it from the angle that many women, especially younger, immature ones love to be pursued and fought for. They like the idea that you're jealous of other guys, etc. If you act the way Rusty claims to have acted, it backfires on them. They were hoping you'd be upset, broken up over it, fight to stay with them... that way, if they find out the other guys they want to date are not great, they will always have you in their back pocket. 

 

I had the same heartbreak when I was 18/19 (even the guys making fun of MDC likely did as well at one point in their lives) and I agree with you 100%. The worst thing you can do is to desperately try to win them back. It's not going to happen. But you don't know that until you live it. The best thing to do, even if it stings, is to act like it's all good and leave them alone. You'll get over it a lot quicker and start having fun again and you'd be surprised how often they wind up crawling back.  You probably shouldn't take them back, but everyone is immature at that age.

I got the ick.

[BunnysBastatrds 2,307]

 I was dating this beauty(32b) senior year in high school for about seven months we went on a big camping trip. One night she got caught banging this guy nobody like. She walked up to me afterwards and broke up with me and went to the other guys tent. I was upset some. Some friends of hers drove us all home and they asked if I was OK. Hope she’s happy. What I’ll miss the most about her, blowing me and her screaming. Please tell her I said that.
