If it bothers you, say something. You're not in jr high, so don't be a child about it.

I get what your getting at brother. But I've met and knocked down more PHD'ers than any other professional group. Maybe if your still in college they carry prestige, but in the real world, not so much. At least that's my experiance and in my profession. All they do is work on getting government grants to do research, in which the end result of this research is "give me another grant for more research". They cruse and hang out at college bars to hook up with college chicks that are idiots and fall for the "look at me! I have a PHD!" It's actually pretty pathetic. Now I'm not say ALL PHD'ers, but a good portion of the academia type that Winston is talking about.....yea

Do you all realize that the OP is the biggest liberal beta bitch on this board? He has no balls and the other dude will frick his girlfriend.

Also, you need to get a wing man that you can shoot the sh*t with, spit game with, and would have your back, if you hypothetically ever have to get into a fight with this dude. It's healthy. I acknowledge that it's a lot of fun to have a lot of girl friends, but an unmarried man can only relate to them on a certain level.

O&G my man. O&G. And I still deal with researchers today.

But before this, at a prior job one of my duties was writting federal grants, that we had to subcontract out to universities, that the end result was " our conclusion is give us more money if you want out answer"! Several grants I finally said F'em, I'll finish the shite myself.

Funny enough I get grants from o&g.

Your assumptions about PhDs is a bit myopic.

If you are scared to talk to her, leave this thread open on your computer, then go out to breakfast by yourself. When she gets up, she will accidentally notice the title, then read every page.

Her face will have your answer when you return home. If y'all split up, you can still go Mongo on him if you want. Her opinion would no longer matter.

Also, his big, feminazi GF was born a man. His constant crowing about dirt rejuvenation, etc. is all a smokescreen to hide the fact that he likes the cack. He is not ignoring you, he is playing hard to get.

I just figured downplaying money would rile up some OTers/the OP

I only really know one PhD, and he's getting his MD now. Stuff he worked on was pretty cool. I don't really know much about research outside of medicine.

It's all good brah

I can dig it bro! As someone told me years ago, there is something more prestigious than money. And that would be power.

I chuckled! That's cool dude. Your world and my world are worlds apart within the O&G world. I dont deal with the scientific aspect of it very much, but I do appreciate it. I'm the fella that holds the O&G's companies hands and tell that everything's going to be alright.

Sounds like you take a lot of baths!! Lol

Next time you go out and are with him, when he starts talking about his field, just make some really loud snoring noises and close your eyes and let your head nod off. Start drooling too.

In all seriousness though, that girl isn't worth dating. Read some of the stuff you've posted and the justifications you are making and it will become clear. It sounds to me like she is using you to make someone else jealous.

You're in a lose lose. If you tell her about your feelings, she knows for sure she has the upper hand. She already has it, but you would just be confirming it to her. The only way to maintain your manliness is to kick that bitch to the curb.

Has it occured to you that because she thinks you are a "player" and a flight risk, she is insecure about losing you and is therefore putting you in a position where you are uncomfortable in order for you to swallow the hook? She wants you to see that she is a) independent and surrounded by a large group of friends, and b) fawned over by an attractive man.

I think your insecurity is exactly what she wants. It makes you obsess over her. She wants to draw you in and is using this setting to do so. Sounds like it is working.



After a great night last night, I feel like this is what truly what the issue was. I know that she's all about me - I am awesome.

Also I think the new glasses that I was wearing for the first time that Saturday night at the bar had me acting beta. If any of ya'll normally don't wear glasses and then do break them out every once in a while, you'll understand what I'm talking about. It makes you feel detached (or at least it does for me) - like you're' watching your life in a movie. More passive.
