re: What's the longest failed relationship you've been in?

I am in one now pushing 6 months. But I'm thinking I may get out of it soon. time with her is taking my eye off of some career goals.

She has her career goals too. being there for her and complete my career goals may just be too much for us to handle. She also has a lot of friends that I think do not approve of me. For no other reason than me not working in oil and gas industry. All of their SOs do and while we all do well, the girls here can be narrow minded to guys in o and g. ($$$$$)

She is an incredibly awesome girl tho

---

If she's that awesome, y'all should probably sit down and really talk about it. Don't just flake out on her. There's more to life than a career...

This is the perspective of someone that wishes pretty much daily that I would have had that talk with a girl that was too focused on her future career. I was willing to compromise. I don't think she thought I was, but I can't say that now without it looking like a desperate ploy to get her back. You can make it if there's an effort and understanding from both parties. Don't let an awesome girl get away without really seeing where her head is on the subject.

3 years. Off and on tho. Finally ended it for good last week.

My dad even said (I think I said it earlier but I'll say it again) that it's been the month for breakups.

I'm way better off right now, though.

ehh, i would be lying if I said I was, but oh well, life goes on. i'm only 23

Eh, there's always room for growth.

I just got out of raising a step-kid and paying for an apartment. I'm 26, in a foreign country and looking forward to the single life.

Almost 2 years... The last few months were an absolute shite show.

So..you had a consistent slam piece in high school that you kept banging in college, but you decided to cheat on her with hotter chicks and bang those as well? Sounds about right.

Haha yea that's basically it summed up in a nut shell

For the most part, people don't change, you just get to know them better.

This is not true. My wife and I both have changed as we've grown in our marriage together. Deep down, we're both still the same person, but I'm a lot different than the person I was 12 years ago when we got married, as is she. The key is for both of you to recognize you're both evolving as a person and accept those changes. The core of our personalities haven't changed, but the way we both see the world definitely has, and is continuing to change.
