This is a thread for love, heartbreak, being secretly British, and telling poor Gustav that things are bound to go right eventually while privately thinking otherwise

    Ok to change the pace a bit. Here's a story of my romantic life that isn't a disaster.

    In college I had a summer relationship that started when I lived at the cabin. She also lived in a cabin. And so we would effectively switch cabins every weekend. Every weekend we would snuggle up and watch movies, argue about Lost, and show each other whatever writing project we were currently working on.

    However during the week when we couldn't really see each other we would send videos of ourselves reading bed time stories and fables and stuff to one and other to watch before going to bed. At a point she told me, ok Gus, but no more goat stories.

    i am online dating which mostly led me to find a dating profile of someone i'd known for a while and then I sent here a message that was basically "eeyyyyy, you're here too!" and then it turned into a more serious conversation and we met up and cooked a dinner together


    i'm still trying to talk to other people as well

    I know I don't get out that often but when I find online dating profiles of people I work with or know in some way I just find it odd and not reassuring

  • JansonJanson Registered User regular
    Also this isn’t up to Gus-level by any means, but here’s one reason why I was glad to escape my home town at the time.

    I was in a role playing group with my friends Bex, Charlotte and a few other people, including a guy named Steve. Steve asked me out via text and we exchanged lots of texts and even a present but we mutually ended it after realizing we were two shy teens not really going anywhere.

    I meet MarkOne on the train for our college field trip. We like each other, but again are two shy teens. I drop lots of heavy hints but we don’t progress very far and eventually I grow annoyed with him. I tell him to leave me alone and next time he’s interested in a girl, make some kind of move on her! So he promptly turns around and starts dating Charlotte. Charlotte and I fight, but make up; I blame MarkOne and successfully ignore him every time we get together.

    At this point Bex is dating Steve.

    Charlotte and MarkOne break up and Charlotte starts dating MarkTwo. Bex is single again and Charlotte introduces her to MarkTwo’s BFF. Bex and BFF start dating. A year or two later they have a nasty breakup; Charlotte sides with her boyfriend and his BFF and Charlotte and Bex fight.

    Bex starts dating MarkOne which really puts a nail in the Bex/Charlotte friendship coffin.

    Charlotte and MarkTwo break up and Charlotte marries Steve! Bex marries MarkOne.

    So the three of us literally all ‘dated’ the same two men (though using a very chaste teenage definition of dating, in my case), and the other two are still married to them, even.

    From 1995 till Sept 2001 {the last I saw of them was the day before}
    Enchurna{ I have no idea how to spell her name so even butching it leaves it to being vague}
    Flips between dating Dax and Will apparently they were doing this earlier in High School but I came into their lives after. From 3rd party rumors of this relationship I hear why she does is Dax is rather controlling Will is laid back But I kept hearing this from the 5th wheel of that circus Dax's on again off again friend/girlfriend
    She had the one of the better comments about someone wanting to get into that action with {When do I get a chance? E says Never with that attitude}
    I knew back before I was deployed it was going to play itself soon just I don't know how as when I came back all 4 of them left the area so I still am curious yet it was none of my business

    Also my home town (which isn’t even small! 120,000 people!) is like a black hole from which few manage to escape. People just slowly spiral round while time seems to freeze (I’m always a little freaked out by how unchanged the town is from my childhood).

    My dad’s family has resided there for more than 300 years.

    So, my mom and her sister were born in mid-England and moved all over the country. Went to colleges in different cities. Both ended up marrying men named Peter from my hometown. To cut a long story short, my aunt and mom now live 100 ft from each other, in houses on opposite sides of the same street. My mom’s parents also moved down to live there in their retirement until death.

    My dad always said he didn’t intend to remain in his hometown (to which he returned when I was 2) and he actually left my mom (who never wanted to live in my hometown either!) a few years ago and divorced and moved to London. Now my mom is stuck, unable to move both for monetary and family/network reasons.

    My dad’s hope was my siblings would escape, as I had, and that he’d have kids scattered across the globe to visit. My brother went to college in London and planned to move to New Zealand! My other brother went to college in Sheffield, like me! He liked Canada! My sister went to college in yet another city. (The twins are still too young to have settled anywhere yet).

    Yeah, all three siblings have since bought houses in my hometown; my sister is married to a local, one brother is engaged to a local, and all three plan to raise their kids there.

    That sounds kind of nice in some respects?

    But if I lived forever in the house I was born in I might die.

    yeah, it's a bit weird, but at the same time i kinda appreciate dating sites as an arena where you can openly say "yeah, we're here to talk about dating", since i get really nervous bringing up dating stuff in person to people i know or have just met

    there's a few people who i know who i've seen on there who i think it'd be a bit more awkward to contact, but in this case, at the very least so far, it's gotten me o get back in contact with a friend

    I occasionally wonder if I should feel worse about living on the other side of the country from my immediate family, but I think the fact I still go back for the holidays (and usually one other time in the middle of the year) makes up for it. I do wish they'd visit me out here more often, though. My parents have been out here 3 times in 11 years, and I don't think my Dad has been out here since he retired. My brother I can understand, he's got work in addition to a family.

    Really being the black sheep of the family does have it's ups and downs when asked I have no idea what to say

    Yesterday, I was off work

    And I met a friend for coffee first thing in the morning, hung out with my Dad, had a coffee date which went really well, then had a game of Infinity with my friend, then went to play DnD

    The weather was beautiful, and I felt pretty good about myself! Quite confident and positive. Today, I'm going away with some friends to the Lake District for a weekend of walking, playing board games, hanging out and just enjoying each other's company.

    Pretty strong end of week, is my point. Feeling very fortunate.

    I think about that when I hear about people inheriting the family home and living there.

    And all I think is, your bedroom (as I assume they'd move into the big bedroom) is the one your parents probably conceived you in.

    And that is weird AF.
