HE dumped ME
I didnt see this happening, it is for the best though. havnt been together long enough to be allowed to class myself as devestated but I really am upset.

I am so sorry Ng. I hope you are alright. I will never understand men.

Salesadict neither will i - i think i might take a page out of souks book for it.
CL - he did the normal things, still bruised from his ex, distance he didnt think would be a problem blah de blah, oh wait yeah wasnt a problem when i travelled to him all the time but shortly after he had to come half way lol.
I darent say some of the words I was coming out with on msn earlier about him lol.

NGlady

The stupid thing is, and I dont like to blow my own trumphet. But I am WELL out of his league and I still let it happen, !!!!!!?!

Well, at least this happened early on rather than later, when you've invested too much time, money and feelings.

CL, I am really not into dating at all and in fact try and avoid it. The behaviour of people out on the p!ss and on the pull in Liverpool has to be seen to be believed...and after you've seen it you need a stiff drink and a lie down!!

Anglea

Well, at least you've got the handbag. He didn't ask for that back I hope.

Again, it seems very strange that he ended it because he really did seem like Prince Charming.

NGlady

Maybes he liked the idea of the initial chase, the idea of pulling the pretty woman he saw online i dunno!!
Yeah I told him i wanted his address to send the things back but he was hesitating kinda telling me its ok and there gifts, so its up to me whether i send back or not so i think !!!! him im keepng!

Anglea

It's a pity you didn't get him to buy you some Faith shoes as well!

NGlady

Pmsl angela, he did get me the faith clutch though

I can imagine. Our town and the city near me is the same... my brother often goes clubbing but I'd rather eat my own eyes than put myself through it. I know it sounds awful - don't get me wrong, I don't think I'm better than anyone else - but I just couldn't deal with the drunken, leeriness of some people. Plus one-night stands don't appeal to me.

Each to their own, I guess. If I ever meet anyone it'll no doubt be somewhere like a supermarket, as that's the only place I ever seem to go!

I know...I am in a very quiet area of the Halls I'll be in next year; only 2 flats on my whole floor at opposite ends of the corridor, without any groups moving in, and only mature students.

My thoughts exactly.

:rotfl:I shouldn't laugh, but Anglea... we can always rely on you to be the practical one at times like these..!

To be fair, was thinking the same myself....
