Update - So, I just called work to see when if I work tomorrow. She answered the phone. Found out when I work next. I asked her how she's doing today. She said she's still doing fine and all, and she called her ex today for whatever reason. I know it's alot easier for guys to get over past loves and everything, believe me I know this. Especially when someone treats you like garbage. Guess maybe she dosen't think like that. I just don't want any drama and be caught in between that situation. The only thing I know is if they do get back together, I don't want to hear every single day about how much he treats her like crap, yadda yadda yadda.

She's still talking to him?? Be very careful, sounds to emotionally wishy washy to me, needs to get her head on straight. Remember that Mr/Ms Right only needs to be chased in the movies, in real life it signifies an extremely emotionaly needy person who will read far too much into things and generally leave you with that stereotypical "Huh??" expression on your face all to often. Maybe I'm just tainted, being around only engineering/medicine girls who have male emotional patterns stuck in a womans body. Remember this: "Everyone has somewhere between 1 and 1000 soulmates out there". Don't know where I heard it but it reaks of truth to me.


Also useful knowlege:


Meet "woman A". Woman A says she wants a man who is honest, caring, in touch with his feelings and can handle a steady relationship.

Meet "guy A". Guy A is a man who is honest, caring, in touch with his feelings and can handle a steady relationship.

Woman A thinks of Guy A as her "best friend".

Meet "guy B". Guy B is a loudmouthed asshat who drinks excessively, is abusive, dishonest, and cares only about himself.

Woman A can't get her pants off fast enough for Guy B.

Woman A then returns to emotionaly dump on Guy A about what a jerk Guy B was to her while Guy A sits there thinking to himself "I could have told you that was going to happen, so could any emotionally healthy rational adult".

Woman A thanks Guy A for being such a good friend.

Woman A then procedes to find Guy B ver. 2.0

Guy A starts trying to decide which caliber of bullet will be least likely to desturb the neighbors for when he recieves the inevitable phone call from Woman A about what Guy B 2.0 did to her


Does this sound jaded to anyone?

9th Engineer - Yeah, it seems she is still talking to him. I couldn't agree with you more on your post. It's one of the biggest things that I can't figure out why females like to deal with the asses that treat them like crap. I see it all the time here where I live. Guess I'll just sit back with the popcorn and watch.

Does this sound jaded to anyone?
Not only does it sound jaded but it also sounds familiar.

Guy X says he wants a woman who is honest, caring, in touch with her feelings and can handle a steady relationship.

Woman Z is a shallow, irresponsible dingbat with enough emotional baggage to fill a 747 and doesn't have the slightest idea what she wants out of life or from a man or where she will be 48 hours from now. But she is unbelievably smokin' hot.

Guy X can't rip his heart out of his chest and put it in Woman Z's purse fast enough. Usually within 24 hours of making eye contact and before he has had a chance to even speak to her and in spite of the fact that she has never given the slightest hint that she even knows that Guy X exists.

Guy X then returns to his buddies to complain that Woman Z ripped his heart out and backed over it with her car then asked him if he could wash her car while she complains to him that none of the three ex-cons out on parole she had wild-animal sex with last week called her back while his buddies sit there thinking to themselves "I could have told you that was going to happen. So could any emotionally healthy, rational adult."

Guy X thanks his buddies for agreeing with him that neither Woman Z nor life itself is being fair to him and that he is truly a martyr singled out for special suffering while others, blissfully unaware of life's complexities, enjoy a simple life filled with peace, happiness and contentment.

Guy X then pulls himself up by his bootstraps, spends the afternoon putting his heart back together with duct tape and fishing line then 7 hours later procedes to find Woman Z ver. 2.0. Wow. Woman Z 2.0 is so much hotter than Woman Z.

[
Guy X thought bubble] Now I understand that Woman Z wasn't supposed to like me because if she did then I wouldn't be available for Woman Z 2.0! I can't wait'll I tell my buddies about her! I wonder how she'll introduce me to her Dad? I bet her car needs washing. Ohhhh this is gonna be great! [\bubble]

Something's missing...

I got it. Woman Y. Who's woman Y? She's the
honest, caring, in touch with her feelings and can handle a steady relationship woman waiting patiently for Guy X to notice her.

True, true. It's easy to forget though, especially in college. The shallowness gene isn't specific to either the X or Y chromosome set I guess.
