MK, you and I are much alike. I have no doubts that you will reconnect and then it will go to shit shortly thereafter because....well, we're humans.

I don't have a "one that got away" story. If they got away, it was because I wanted them there or they wanted to be there. I try to remain fluid. If they wander off, another will wander along shortly.

This started playing in my head while reading the last sentence...

"Girls are like buses....miss one next 15 one coming"

It's true though. I imagine MK will even speak something on this topic as well. It's when we decide that it doesn't happen fast enough is when we start to stress ourselves out.

Well, Rmtt and you are correct.

They really are. In college and other schools we are like two parallel lines marching past each other. Lots of contact which is fleeting and VERY high volume. As we age and move into careers social interaction is confined in clusters with feelers going from one cluster to another. Dating sites return it to the former example.

I won't even say how many I've gone out with and bagged but I've been put on restrictions by my attorney and friends 3 times in the last 3 years.

Don't say stuff like that!!

Also - don't think for a hot second we forgot

FuriouslyFast · 03-18-2020, 08:57 PM

Her name is Jen...

Dated her right after a LTR that ended badly for me. It was 2004 or 2005.
I won't go into a boring post about the relationship, but she's the only ex that I don't wish bad things on. I broke up with her b/c I was young & dumb (24ish) and wanted to date this tin redhead with big tits. Big mistake on my part. Redhead was a cheating whore.

Side note, I actually found redhead on OkCupid earlier this year & we set up a meeting (My plan was only to hate fuck her

), but she bailed out with a bs excuse so I blocked her #.

Anyway, I wish I remembered Jen's last name so I could look her up. I'm sure she got her happily ever after anyway. I know she hated me when I broke up with her. Can't really blame her.

pennsiveguy · 03-18-2020, 09:27 PM

Her name was Liz.

We were in our early 30s. We hung out at the same coffee shop, and had shared many hours of conversation and revelry. One day out of the blue she asked me out to a movie. She was smart, educated, sexy, and preposterously fun. We had a heady and wonderful 8 months or so together. She was the first girl I had brought home to my family in many years.

She was driven to finish her MFA; I was taking on a lot of new responsibility in my family's business, and I wasn't adapting to the demand in a healthy way. We agreed that we were both too focused on our career goals, which was a ruse; it was our way of dodging the obvious deep connection we felt, which scared the fuck out of both of us.

She struck up a romantic relationship with her professor/advisor, and they married and had a daughter soon after. A few years later they relocated to Boston, where he's a distinguished tenured Ivy League professor of ethics and rhetoric and a published and widely cited author in his field. I've never lost a woman to a more accomplished man; that's my only comfort.

Those can be scary. I was always, "the other guy" in college until I met my now ex-wife and never really paid attention to anyone else until I met the person whom I described in the OP. In fact, I was young, dumb and full of cum but emptied quite often.

I grew out of that phase and now I'm mature, demure, and full of manure. I relish my current state.

ragingpanda · 03-18-2020, 11:12 PM

I always get away when a woman wants to get serious. I am going to remain a bachelor until I die (could be soon since I work in a hospital).

I just wish I could figure out a way to at least realistically find her last name so I could try to find her on social media or something.

He's from a different country and most of the time, I'm relatively certain he dumps whatever he wants to say into Google Translate and copies and pastes it here, so I believe this is going to not make sense to him.

I say this as someone who is North American and also doesn't have a clue what 8th grade A and P was. Which makes me fairly certain it won't mean anything to him either.
