Title: Well, that was certainly a whirlwind romance....for her.
Post by: gpw11 on Monday, February 11, 2008, 12:12:33 AM
So, I met this chick last week or so, and went out for drinks with her on Thursday.  It went really well and we got along great, and she called me friday to come over and "watch a movie".  We made out for a bit, which was fine and all, but I didn't really want to be there because I kept on getting text messages from people out having fun.  This girl wanted me to stay over there, but I kind of sort of said I had to get up really early to go to work, left, and then went and met up with some friends at 2 am. 

Soooooooooo sat. afternoon rolls up and I'm pretty hung over.  This chick keeps on sending me text messages like "I had a super fun time last night!" and "That 'movie was great ;)". Aha ha ha...what the fuck?  She wants to do something sat. night, which is also kind of weird.  I tell her I can't and she asks me about Sunday (tonight), so I agree to meet her.

All day I was kind of thinking about this, and came to the conclusion that I pretty much need to set things straight.  I'm 99% positive I've already told her I'm not looking for a girlfriend, but in my expierience, girls always think they can change that about you.  Either way, I'm farily positive she's looking for a boyfriend and I obviously can't provide that in any way.  When we met earlier tonight I basically went in to judge where she was coming from and convinced myself that my earlier conclusion was correct: she want's a boyfriend.  I have to tell her it's not going to be me, but it's hard because she's too damn nice.  So, I figure the best way to go about this:

As I was driving her home, I laid down this piece of gold:

ME: "Look, about the other night...."

Her: "Yeah, it was fun!"

ME: "Yeah....I think you should go get tested."

Her: "...... uh....why?"

ME: "haha.  Just kidding, what I meant to say was I-don't-know-what-you-want-but-I'm-totally-not-looking-for-a-girlfriend-no-offense. haha, jokes."

Her: "uh...ok?"

A.)  It was a dick move, but maybe the best way to lay that down and

B.) I think she was cool with it, but at the same time seemed a little let down, which kind of makes me feel really really bad.  She's really nice and I like her a lot, but that wasn't going to work out at all for either of us.  Everyone else feels guilty when they do this right?

Is it true what they say - once you go gpw you don't go back?

I might feel guilty, but I wouldn't really know since I sort of got married to the last girl I made out with that was looking for a boyfriend.

Well, telling her was clearly the right thing to do. It's good to get these things settled from the start rather than stringing them out and making things worse.

Of course, the classic line is, "it burns when I pee".  She's guaranteed to start running.

Well, if that's the case I guess I'll either miss out or find out later.

To clarify, I'll still hang out with this chick, because she's cool.  I'm just not going to sleep with her or anything like that.  Hopefully.

I think its about time you settled down and had little GPWs, who continue the tradition of leaving broken hearts and vaginas.

It's sad.  Pug's innocence really has been destroyed.

Heh, I actually went through the experience not too long ago. Though Im still on the lines of I want a girlfriend, I just didn't want it to be this chick. 

We went for a movie and went bowling with some of her friends one night, then another time she hung out at my place I think two times. By then I determined I wasn't feeling like she was somebody I wanted to keep seeing. Which I thought sucked because we're into the same stuff, just too different personality types I guess. Well a weekend goes by and I ended up not texting her or calling, but she didn't text me either, so I thought I was good. Monday comes and I get a text from her, "Are you avoiding me?" Kinda out of the blue, I told her I wasnt, because i really wasn't avoiding her, then we kinda talked and I laid it down I didn't want anything serious. It kinda sucked, but she took it well and we're still friends.

I still debate every now and again if I really want to start something with her, since you know... this barely ever happens. But I still back down, which is a good thing cause I definitely dont want to be in the situation my best friend is in, where he has moved in with her, she wants to get married, and hes looking for a fucking way out.

It depends. As long as both of you are clear about your intentions and keep an open line of communication you should be alright. You might even make a morally-acceptable "cuddle"-buddy.

Yeah, I've been in plenty of situations where some girl has a crush on me and I have no interest and she doesn't take hints and I have to lay it out there that sorry... I'm just not interested.

I always felt really bad but what else can you do, you know?

This exceeded my attention span after four sentences.

GPW has the most entertaining stories on the internet. I get happy whenever he posts anything of length.

He makes long posts to compensate for his small penis.

Oh, I hear what you're saying, but the main reason I feel especially bad in this case is because as far as this girl is concerned I was probably sending signs in the other direction.  From a neutral perspective that's probably not too far from the truth.  That and she's ridiculously nice.
