Ive been with a girl for 3 years. We took a trip to Disney world and had a great time. When we got back, we actually missed each other more than we had before we left. Things were fine for about a week, and on our 3 yr anniversary she dumped me. She's been in a relationship for 8 yrs of her life (5 with another guy and 3 with me). She claimed she needed to be single since she's never had the time to be single. I've found out from a friend she has problems with our relationship too, (ex: me playing on the computer a lot) I'm really confused right now if this is just an issue where she gets to be single and comes back to work out our problems, or if she's just using the "I need to be single" line to go out and find another guy because she's not happy with me.

She did tell me on the phone, and she would for sure get back with me after she had her free time, but I can't help but think it won't be for a very very long time. She isn't the type of girl to string me along, nor to lie to me. If she really didn't think it would work, she would probably tell me straight up. What gets me is how everything was going fine, and then out of nowhere she got scared and left.

Okay, women are somewhat complicated at times but not that complicated. We are very emotional creatures and when we love someone. We love hard. If she loved you she wouldn't want to be single. I would think that after 3 years she should love you but it doesn't seem like that's the case. Many women have used the "I just want to be single" excuse because they don't want to hurt the guy's feelings. She's not feeling you anymore and you should not wait for her. Move on

It sounds like there is a lot she was holding back on. My parents had a similar problem, no communication, which lead to their divorce. Communication is key. If you get a chance to talk to her again, ask her if there were ever any issues she held back on bringing up, and calmly discuss them with her. Be open to her feelings and supportive [hopefully she'll be open to yours and supportive as well]. Good luck, I hope it works out for you.

You know how she said she's been in those other relationships for 8 yrs, 5 yrs, etc... she's maybe scared of your relationship with her coming to an end like all the other ones or maybe she's gettin tired of the same person. My boyfriend does the same thing most of the time, he plays too much videogames, and sometimes on the computer. If a girl feels that her man thinks things like games and computers mean more to him then her then of course she's gonna be unhappy

That sounds really confusing. Are you sure there weren't signs beforehand? If so, can you address or fix the issues or at least acknowledge them? I see why she'd want to be free and single because everybody should be on their own at some point. But why break up a good relationship to go experience a bunch of crappy ones? Weird. Sorry I can't help much.

This sort of thing can happen, it happened with me. I was in a relationship for 2 years and I needed a big break. Although I loved him very very much, it needed to be done. And I didn't like how he was on the computer alot, and playing xbox all the time but I didn't leave him becasue of that. I needed to be single and take a big break. We never ended up getting back together becasue we decided to be wih other people becasue we had only been with each other our whole life and we needed to see what else is out there.
Hope I helped. Good luck!!

Does it ever annoy you that you're single?
random-ren asked 2 days ago

Yes, most of the time! I really wish I had a boyfriend/girlfriend!

A little, because I feel left out.

Not really...

Nope! I have too much fun being single!

What's there to be annoyed about?

Describe your ideal first date; Where do you go? What do you wear? How does the date end?
First date..mmm.... dinner at some place downtown. afterwards maybe go for a walk as the temperature drops in the city. Finally it would be your choice if you wanted to watch a movie or go downtown, either way its paid for!MY style, would have to be a pair of baggy jeans and a over sized polo, with a fitted cap, the date would end in either a drunk state or a relaxed vibe.

Afterwards..what will your date know about you?
Afterwards they would noticed that to know me is it know me! trust is earned, just like the knowledge about me!

Would you date me?
