Dude, just leave her. You're both still young and you can both start over fresh.

This needs to come from you. You said yourself that she's more into the relationship than you. Just pull the band-aid off and you'll both be better off.

Good women are hard to find. But if you sure you’re not into 100% then it won’t work anyway.

Dump her now. You are wasting your time and hers.

You obviously think you can do better than this woman. So time to find out.

you forgot to add that the nutjob will get pregnant and will forever be a ball and chain to his life.

She is from the little bubble community in which we both live near. Her parents, who are sweet, live a short car ride away from her. Most of her current close friends are ones that she has grown up with.

This isn't exactly a bad thing, but I am just not all about the suburban, gossipy shite, where everyone is always in everyone else's business, and I feel like this would be an inevitability.

Make sure your girlfriend understands privacy, and what "don't repeat this" means. Otherwise, be ready for a LOT of disappointment in your future.

And lately I have just have started to miss being single, and flirting, and checking other woman out, and having complete freedom. I was single for a year before I started dating her, and I was kind of digging it.

What do you want out of life?
Wife kids/family or to be single forever?

Neither answer is the right answer, but you need to at least come to terms with what you want.

Don't settle if you think she is not the one, but don't ditch her just because you see your divorced at 31 friend (lol) rebounding. Remember, your friend is likely hurting more than he is showing and acting out to cope.

Mostly true. Every recently divorced guy I know will brag to no end about the women they are sleeping with. They also love to send weird inappropriate pictures that I am sure the woman would not appreciate being sent around.

Haven’t read a single reply yet.

But I’ve been in your exact situation. I chose to drag it out, and it still didn’t work. After 5 months you’ll know if there’s something there or it isn’t. Sounds like it isn’t. Rip the bandaid off as quickly as possible, and both of you will be better for it in the long run. And you’ll feel like a weight is lifted off your shoulders the second you do it. Stop wasting time and leave this girl so she can start moving on.

So, basically she's not bitchy, county or bat-shite crazy enough?

This sounds like the kind of thing you are going to frick up.

You're going to break up with what sounds like a great girl that actually cares about you because you don't feel this mythical passion.

Here's whats going to happen: You're going to break up with her. She will be devastated but because she actually sounds like a good catch, she will find someone new and eventually make that dude a great wife.

You will date some sluts, find passion with a total nutjob that will eventually make you miserable...

And then pine for the girl that was actually a good person and good girlfriend for the rest of your life.

Good luck.





This is all correct.

You are too immature for this relationship right now. Timing is off.

One day you will look back and realize what a shite you were (are).

This. Sounds like you're the problem here, not her.

You seem to have the maturity of an 18 year old who just wants to frick around.

She's VERY sweet, and caring, and does all of the little things that makes a guy happy. She's thoughtful and is truly interested in my happiness. Probably as selfless as a woman can be. Makes me food, packs me food for work, buys me beer that I like. She is trust-worthy, and seems to be loyal.

where can i find this woman so i can show her what a real man is like?

What a boring arse novel you wrote.

woe is me, she's good looking but not sure if she's my OT 10.

she loves me too much.

she cares too much.

i like flirting.

no shite fricking sherlock, welcome to life. shite or get off the pot. sounds like she deserves a committed relationship that goes both ways.


I know. I know. Goddamn it. There is definitely a lot of truth to this. I think that what you've said here is how my brain works.

No, I didn't mean to give that impression. I am mature in many ways. Important ways. But I think that I really am kind of afraid of "growing up" and putting myself in a "box."
