Don’t think about it as getting dumped, think about it as being set free.

Or something.

I don’t know.  I’m sorry to hear this.

Hey, at least now you can spend New Year’s Eve and Day doing whatever the hell makes you happy.

Hopefully you made it through Christmas without spending a ton on presents.

Tis the season for bad news. We just got some real shit news yesterday too. On the upside you can start the year off without a piece of shit by your side. Times may feel shitty right now, but they’ll get better friend. Happy New Year!

I’m sure it won;t be hard finding a single girl on NYE. The y will be on the hunt for the single guy so they can have a kiss at Midnight.

Now you, too, get to experience the j oy s of internet dating. If you choose to, anyway.

But yeah, being single is a rollercoaster. One minute you’re like, shit, I can poop with the door open! And the next, you’re like, whoa, that girl walking across the street is super cute, and you get lost in your thoughts for 20 minutes building the perfect hypothetical partner out of her.

But then you go home and poop with the door open.

you see, i WOULD poop with the door open but I still live with my parents.

At least now I can work on my bikes in peace without worring about wasing time not seeing her

Let’s see, you’re in school, you have a job, you work on motorcycles all the time.... there’s not a lot of room for a girlfriend in there. Girls, especially young ones, require a lot of attention if you want to keep them around. They also have to be the right match. If it’s not, it will never work.

Think of it like a bike you loved that just never fit quite right. It may have been beautiful and sexy, but it messed up your back every time you rode it. You tried a new seat, maybe a set of riser bars, but it just never fit right. In the end , you passed it along to the next guy because you couldn’t make it work for you . No harm, no foul.

I’ve always thought it best to get yourself in order (degree, job, lifestyle, etc.) before adding a significant other into the mix. That way you are settled into who you want to be and can concentrate on finding someone who fits into that mix. It may be someone who’s into the same things as you. It may be someone who has her own things to do and is willing to give you the space to be you.

Whether you realized it or not, this wasn’t the right fit for this time in your life. The right one will come along. You have lots of time.

I know. the sad thing was, she was into all of the same stuff as I was. a few friends joked that she was effectivly, a female version of me with how well we clicked.

though I do appreciate the words. it does help a little bit.

That sucks man, sorry to hear it....I haven’t managed to find a gf in a few years as sad as that sounds, so I feel your pain. Plenty of time and fish in the sea though friend, soon it will be a brand new year, just be the best you that you can be and I am sure somebody will be found! :)

*Hugs*!!

If I’ve learned anything from the few or so girlfriends and that odd boyfriend I had over the past year, the person you’ll meet next will likely be even better. The heart will hurt for now, but you’ll come out of it a better person than when you went in. Someday you’ll look back at today and be glad it happened. <3

Side note: Earlier this year I actually dated a close  friend of another Midwest area Oppo. That felt super duper weird.

One of the advantages of getting older is that you learn what’s important in life for yourself and your own happiness. Yeah, this just happened, but hopefully it wasn’t someone being abusive to the other and it is just the nature of maturing adults finding their paths. Sometimes two people’s paths converge at some point in time but then re-diverge later. It hurts, but that’s how it goes.

Not gonna preach about the single life or spam you with advice cause I think you’re about my age and you’ve been around that block. You know what’s good for you and what isn’t. I will however be the voice that reminds you that the point of NYE isnt to see if you can’t tart off the new year as hungover as possible so that your year can only get better. I’ve done stupid shit after getting elegantly smashed after a break-up and I’d hazard a guess more than one person reading this (you included) have too.
