If there's no ring on her finger...
and she's not expressed any interest in cheating.
Then she don't like you, amigo
If shes with someone, shes not the perfect woman for you, fam.
Are you in a relationship?
No. I don't cheat. if she decided to cheat I'd say no and we'd end any future ties together. Maybe part of me is glad she's just a friend. if she was willing to cheat on her boyfriend she'd do it to me too eventually. Do I want to date someone so quick to cheat?It's not always that simple. There are people who would never dream of cheating, but then they meet that once in a lifetime person.
I have standards. I'm not going to cheat and she's not expressed any interest in cheating.Technically you wouldn't be the one cheating, but yes on the home wrecking.
Yeah...it just...I really hate how indecisive I am. She was wanting to date me but, she thought I had no interest in her so she didn't bother sending signals. Why am I so stupid?
Love comes and goes but friends are forever.
I have standards. I'm not going to cheat and she's not expressed any interest in cheating.Sure, but she isnt committed yet and sounds like they haven't been together that long. You should just keep a good relation with her, but don't overstep boundries and definitely dont make yourself too available.
40-50% of first marriages end in divorce and 60-70% of second marriages end in divorce.Really? Surprised the second marriage stat is so high. No way I am getting divorced from my second wife
Usually it seems to be because many people who marry again are the same people who carried baggage that lead to their first divorce and many people are terrible at fixing themselves to prevent it from happening again.I get it. I learned from my first marriage, both how to communicate better and also what I will not put up with from a partner. It was borderline emotionally abusive.
Obviously exceptions exist but yeah. While you're successful there's others who will jump into marriage after marriage racking up multiple divorces lol.
I actually figured it out <3 when I first saw the name I was like "I don't remember following someone named Dissident but they seem alright." Went to my follower list and began checking who was missing and yeah lol.You should join the discord server!
If there's no ring on her finger...Dude, don't be that guy
This happened
Sure, but she isnt committed yet and sounds like they haven't been together that long. You should just keep a good relation with her, but don't overstep boundries and definitely dont make yourself too available.
Also obviously dont try and break them up, if they are not right for eachother then it wont work out in the end.
What will being friends get you? Pain and heartache.
I'm editing this because I didn't realize she said she won't cheat and you won't ask her.
Distance yourself. You aren't doing yourself any favors palling around with an unrequited love and since you are discussing it here, it appears you are the sort of person who can't just be friends without romantic hopes.
Like I originally said, being friends will only bring heartache and misery because it will eat at you, at least till you meet someone else.
It's not always that simple. There are people who would never dream of cheating, but then they meet that once in a lifetime person.
If she isn't happy she can do it herself. I have no business being involved in her romantic affairs.I've had women "just friends" that I possibly had interest in. It's not a big deal if you can compartmentalize. Also, I was just friends with my wife for 3 years before we suddenly weren't just friends.
It's so hard to make friends. She's the first to want to hang out with me and do things. All my friends have just moved on in life. its nice to have someone to talk too. So it'll hurt for now not having more but, in the end i'm just glad I have a friend.
If shes with someone, shes not the perfect woman for you, fam.That's not how it works. I think your sense of reality has been warped by all of CE's "the perfect woman, but" topics lol.
It's not always that simple. There are people who would never dream of cheating, but then they meet that once in a lifetime person.I strongly disagree with this. I have a very firm no cheating stance and I also firmly believe that you shouldn't end a good relationship just because you think you found someone better. Not everyone is willing to cross those lines
But that's a line you won't cross, and that must be respected. There's not much you can do other than enjoy your friendship and treat it is a hard lesson for the future.
Well TC, you learned a valuable lesson about hesitation. It sucks it had to be that way but, now you know for the future.
Value your friendships. You will be happier than the people who only see the opposite sex as a romantic/sexual possibility.While this is true, the prerequisite is not to pine over her, which can be easier said than done >_>
He made it clear in his post. He found out she did like him but didn't make a move. He knows he waited too long and has accepted that. The post is mostly venting which is perfectly valid.That kinda says it all right there, doesn't it? If both of them liked each other but neither of them made a move then somewhere along the way they both probably thought a relationship wouldn't work, or the communication skills between the two of them are so sorely lacking that it would probably lead to other relationship problems further down the line.
I should say when i first met her I kept my distance and never really talked to her. She made a couple attempts to be friendly with me but, I gave her the cold shoulder. When I did start actually talking to her and we became friends it was already too late and she had moved on and found someone else. You live and you learn.Just take it as an opportunity to work on yourself. You don't seem comfortable with yourself, and that uneasiness bleeds into all your interactions with other people and results in missed opportunities with the ladies like this.
I wasn't trying to be rude but, I was I dont know I just can be reserved till you get to know me. I'm not a super social person. I should be more outgoing honestly. She agreed with me on that. She said I won't ever meet anyone if I give off cold and distant vibes. She said there's plenty of women out there for me and I'm selling myself short. I have to put myself out there. It's not easy but nothing in life ever is.
