QuoteA boat (those things can kill ALL you money and time!) ?

Funny that you suggested that. I've been sailing a Hobie 16 catamaran since the breakup. So far I've only tipped it over twice.

why do you need a new hobby just cuz you dumped one of the many crazy bitches that are out there?  just go on with life as normal.  i was thinking about my sort of gf last night.  i was in bed and lying end to end from the corners taking up all of my queen size bed.  in my mind i was thinking man am i glad i don't have to share this bed with a Buddha Loves You that would take up my room.  tell me the tv is too loud or get bored and wants to go out.  f%$k that i want to do what i want, when i want and how i want. 

^^^

Its funny you should say that Frankie boy. As i was too laying in bed last night stretched across from corner to corner, thinking it was mighty cold and lonely and wishing i had a girl to share it with again lol.

not to me man...i love it.  i was in the gf/wife trap from 17 years old to 42 with a gf or wife with maybe a week or two in between but other than that straight through.   right now i am glad not to have the weight of the gf.  technically i am still married but i only speak to tina when she e-mails and needs money.  a couple of weeks ago it was 800 bucks for school, hockey, swimming and karate for AJ my son

Last night I was lying im my king size bed and had to roll over twice to snuggle up with my wife

Miserable relationships are no fun.

More power to ya man. I tried hard, but it was never enough. I just knew I'd end up somewhere in the same position as poor frankieG (my condolences btw). Ah well. Women...can't live with 'em and you can't live with 'em

This is funny to me, I just got back from a 10 day vacation, camping with my wife- after spending 240+ straight hours with her, with the only alone time being when I had to poo, I was anxious to get back to work to have a break from her. I love my wife, but damn!

I'm told you learn to tune it out after a while.   

We've been married 7 years, and started dating in high school, so that's 17 years together with a 4 year off and on area when I was in the Marines, and she in college and we dated other people as well...how goddamn long is it supposed to take?

It varies...  I've heard between 35 and 50 years.  However, a small percentage never do.

You don't have to work at the good relationships, there's no conscious effort required, you just do nice things naturally.

Of course I tend to go overboard, happy birthday honey heres your new f4i, or happy anniversary hope you like your new mustang.... things like that. Guess I will have to buy her a private jet next year

...well, you have set the bar pretty high... 

Ok...so...as a female.... Ry Guy.... RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously.... What you two share isn't love; it's co-dependence. It's not a healthy relationship!  I agree with the advice not to bone her, too!  Ride (your motorcycle) more! Go out with friends more! Do whatever you need to do to get past the tough times! 

Oh, and love you, too, frankie! *group hug*   

So give us an update, Ry!

Ahh, I was wondering where the dating advisor was...

Quote from: Ry_Guy on September 09, 2008, 01:11:07 AM

We both love each other madly. But the catch is, we both hate each other too.

thats called codependency. you dont love her, you need her. learn to live alone. only then will you find someone else worth living with.

if you can't stand alone, you can't very well stand with someone else. 

Codependency...I don't know why I never considered that, but it totally was.
An update: We haven't said a word to each other for 9 days now (and consequently no boning ).

Thanks for the tip. I've taken it quite literally...I'm moving to California!!
I followed my ex here to Milwaukee because she had a great grad school opportunity. But I have no friends or family here and I hate these long bitter winters. I've always wanted to live in a more 2-wheel friendly climate, like FL or NC. I just found a job in Corona, CA. So I'll be making the great migration there on Sep 26! I'm so excited I could poop my pants.

You suck,

I love the weather, love the roads, but I hate the state.

Stay clean for the next 10 days too, then - no "before I leave town" foolishness. Just get out of town, get established and be happy with yourself in your new town, and then, and only then, go looking...for a girl on a GS500...?

That is freaking outstanding. Don't talk to her at all, and I wouldn't even tell her you are moving, just disappear and let that jerk wonder wtf happened to you. Great move!
