i believe she will call maybe not today, i realize that she may not ask about the key or the ring, i am saying when she calls that is what i plan on saying, if she doesn't ask about the stuff i won't talk about it. i am questioning about the rest
I don't care what you think, as long as it's about me.
get out your 2X4's but i know what she is going to respond to, i know what happened.
i didn't forget the ring or the key f, i am going to be the man that finally treats you how you deserve to be treated. i am going to honor you, cherish you, and most importantly respect you. first and foremost i want to know that you are okay. we don't need to be focused on getting married or anything than a pace that we are both comfortable with in a caring, secure, mutual relationship. i realize that you are confused right now. i want you to take some time, sort through things. call me when you are ready to.
she hates girley men, but hates being made to feel like less. does this do that?
Well since you think you know everything I'm assuming you also know you're a dork.
You're acting like a 15 year old school kid who doesn't know any better.
What happened to dropping the rope and getting on with THE REST of your life?
Can you not read back thru these TWO THREADS worth of posts and see how manic you sound?
I'm sure she's an amazing woman. And I'm totally sure that you are in love with her and what a life with her.
But get some perspective.
The first thing we learned in DB 101 was that it was unhealthy to depend upon another, OR A RELATIONSHIP WITH ANOTHER, to find fulfillment and happiness in our life.
You're totally over the top and you truly need to take a break.

Ok, look, I know I'm not part of your inner circle. Not even completely sure that you care to hear anything from me about this. But I will say this one last thing...
Asking others how to respond is just silliness...
This is not the Conversation Store where you purchase words that you think will do the best job of accomplishing your goal.
How about a radical approach?
Respond the way RICHIE would honestly respond.
Trust YOURSELF a little bit.
Do you want to fail because of someone else's words?
Even worse, do you want to succeed because of someone else's words?
Reminds me of some old movies where the timid teenage boy uses a friend and a walky talky to have the friend tell him what to say to the girl he loves.
As I recall, those things NEVER work out just right.
Be YOURSELF.
She fell in love with YOU. Not us.
Damn man, how can your confidence be so shattered? You're a far better man than you are showing right now.
Blessings,
Bill

OMG! I was just thinking the SAME thing.
Blynd - I just don't know what to say to you right now. My first instinct is to ask you just how the hell you could have built another relationship on sinking sand...but what good would that do??
