So guys, I thought everything was good with Alex, I mean, I was talking to her like normal, we made up, and... Well, something still seemed off.

Well, I looked throught my messages and everything she said... well... I figured out what was wrong.

There wasn't a single "I love you" sent from her side. At all.

I think I really messed up guys.

[MagmarFire]

I may have misinterpreted it, but it doesn't seem to me like it's impossible for the relationship to recover. I mean, it was just an unfortunate chain reaction of saying the wrong thing at the wrong time, right?

[The Glamour Nazi]

No,  it'll get better. She said that the reason she didn't say it was because she didn't seem like she was just saying it to say it...

I told her, "What's wrong with that? So long as you mean it."

Needless to say, I got an "I love you" which really calmed my nerves down...

Anyway, I'm gonna be staying home the next couple of days, take a break from work, I'm gonna sleep, play on the 'net, veg out, and see Alex.

That's my entire plan for the rest of the week.

[MagmarFire]

Ah, signs of recovery. Just as I thought. Good. :D

So let me let you know what's been going on with my Ex.

2007: I met her. Friends. Date. Love.
2008: Stabbed me in the back. Broke my heart. I died.
2008: Decides she wants me back. I go back (stupid). She stabs me in the back again.
2009: Decides she made a mistake, and wants to be friends again. I agree on the condition that she doesn't tell me about her love life (it still hurt).
2010: Decided to bring her boyfriend around me. I stopped talking to her.
2010: She broke up with him. Got me back. We were cool.
2011: About a month or two ago, she decided to just come out of the blue and say "I've found someone else and I'm happier now."

... Okay. Bye.

So I've been not talking to her again. Told myself that it was over for good. No matter what she does, I'm not going back to her only to get hurt again. My middle school years taught me how to be cold hearted towards those who are cold hearted towards me. Haven't done it in a long time- but it doesn't mean I've forgotten how. This series of texts went down last night:

Her: "I know you don't want to talk to me, but you're the only person in the world I want to talk to. Please don't go, I want you to stay."

Now those last few words there, "please don't go, I want you to stay" are the lyrics of a song I showed her a long time ago- a song that made me think of her. The last time she got me back is because she said that. It didn't work this time.

Me: "Why. Just why. What can I say that nobody else can say to you?"

Her: "About your day."

Me: "It was awful. And yesterday was worse. But tomorrow is gonna be amazing because I choose to make it amazing, and you're not gonna mess that up for me. My life is finally getting back on track- and you know what you are? You're a set of busted tracks. I'll crash at the end of them, and I'm not even gonna let it happen this time."

Be advised that it did hurt to type all of that stuff to her. I still love her- but I'm not willing to let myself get toyed with again. I told my present self that my future self would be proud of my past self for sending all of this. Truth is, I'm very proud of my past self.

Her: "That might just be Bc you're a negative nancy. Doesn't sound like it's that great without me. But if you're dead-set, I'll just add you to the block list."

I found that ironic because she texted me. I think I'm the one who need a block list. Also, my life always gets better without her in it. I'm pulling all kinds of tail right now for reasons I don't know- whenever I let her go, women become attracted to me. I don't know.

Me: I'm dead-set. And I'm sorry it has to be this way.

Her: I'm sorry too. See you in the next life. I tried.

Me: Me too...

I really stuck it to her, guys. I'm so proud of myself. I battled the devil and won her game of temptation!

All Downhill From Here - New Found Glory
Goodbye (so long) - SR-71
Stupid Kid - Alkaline Trio

Not the Same - Bodyjar
Dysentery Gary - Blink 182
I Hope You Die - Bloodhound Gang
Don't Let Her Pull You Down -New Found Glory
Happy Holidays You Ba****d - Blink 182

That's the playlist I've been rocking out to to make myself feel better. I recommend it to anyone going through the same situation. Sometimes you gotta be tough for the greater good- it also helps when your friends are telling you that she's miserable now. :)

ZV Wins.

[MagmarFire]

This is the same girl who's given you these ups and downs for all this time? Dang, man, I'm sorry. She's sure been persistent...

Her: "That might just be Bc you're a negative nancy. Doesn't sound like it's that great without me. But if you're dead-set, I'll just add you to the block list."

...

She did not just go there. I don't know whether to laugh hysterically or go into a classic Internet rage.

I really stuck it to her, guys. I'm so proud of myself. I battled the devil and won her game of temptation!

ZV Wins.

With that, I dedicate my next glass of chocolate milk to you, ZV. *toasts*

Say, if you don't mind my asking, how are things going for this other girl? ;)

[Deku]

She did not just go there. I don't know whether to laugh hysterically or go into a classic Internet rage.

I laughed. It's okay to crack up at that, all of my friends (and hers) did.

Say, if you don't mind my asking, how are things going for this other girl? ;)

Actually, there are four girls that really want me right now- while they're all pretty, I'm only really interested in one: Girl. She's the one I posted about earlier, and right now I don't know where things are. I need more time before I can make progress. I tried to set up an MTG/Smash tournament tonight, but everyone was busy. :-\

[The Glamour Nazi]

Hey, if you want another song to add to that playlist "Lightning Runaway 'No Music, No Life' By Ben Kweller and The Pillows is pretty darn awesome.

Also, all of you stay tuned for a huge reveal that will come at the end of the day. From me.

Well, I promised it, here is the BIG REVEAL.

I have no life outside Alex and work.

I need a hobby or something, because whenever she's not around, I get depressed, I start to wonder what she sees in me, why she stays with me when she's so absolutely beautiful, and could have someone much, much better.

She's beautiful, kind, funny, amazing to hang out with, and I'm just... Me. I'm nothing special.

I have no real skills, barely have a future, or anything.

I wish I had other friends around that I could hang out with, but I don't, it's just her.

I wonder why she chose me, everyone says "You're cute together" "You're good to her." "She loves you."

Why? I'm not unattractive, but I can't stand up to THIS:



I'm good to her? Ha, good luck convincing me of that, I think I'm never gonna make up for what I did to her that one fight, and it's tearing me up.

And she loves me. She really does... I don't see what she does in myself, but for some reason, she really loves me with every last bit of her being... And I don't deserve it. I love her more than anyone ever will... But I feel like I just hold her back...

She's beautiful, she could be a model, she's a great singer, she has amazing friends that see can actually hang out with (No offense to you guys, I love you guys, but I wish I could actually hang out with you) She is amazing...

What do I have going for me? I have what is probably the most dead end job, I obsess over anime, and I love her, I have almost nothing to offer her.

It tortures me that she stays with me... But I never want her to leave...

And the worst part?

She's my sister guys.

[Pale Dim]

Okay, what? She's your actual blood-related sister?

[The Glamour Nazi]

Okay, what? She's your actual blood-related sister?

To quote you, "yesth"

She is.

[Darth Wyndisis]

Wait... how is she your sister?  I thought you mentioned that you went over to her house before or after a date at some point.  *Looks back several pages*

She answered the door (Strangely, her mother knows my dad. Small world.) and let me in. I thanked her for letting me come over. I don't think she'll mind me telling you how she dressed, so she was wearing a... skirt? With a shirt (I think that's what I'd call it, I dunno) but I was most enamored with her adorable black thigh highs with purple ribbons. (Lemme just say, MOEEEEE)

What, is she like a half-sister that you somehow didn't know you had?  That's like the only thing I can think of that makes sense.

[MagmarFire]

When did you find this out, anyway? ...And how?

[Keaton]

wait...

what the ****?

[The Glamour Nazi]

She's my half sister, yes. It was really awkward when I met her at the mall for our first date and we (My father and myself) go out and meet her mom and it's... Well, someone my dad knew. :-X

[Deku]

wait...

what the ****?

Quoted for truth.

QUE??
