My aggressive journey to say a few words. (AKA) I'll be saying stuff that won't matter to many of you but it'll ALL mean something to me.
it's just not right!
Published on December 22, 2003 By wnx_decoy In Personal Relationships
I don't get it my parents brought me up to be a good person. I try to be I really do. My ex-girlfriend who just recently broke up with me dicided that the best way to tell me she didn't want to go out with me anymore was to tell me that her mom made her feel guilty.
We had been going out for, oh, I don't know, about three months when she dicided that she just simply didn't like me anymore. I can't believe I'm about to say this but the guy she likes now is way out of her reach. He is one of the most popular seniors in the school and she is a freshman. Oh yeah, If you didn't catch on yet I'm in high school.
Anyways, now she says that she still wants to be friends. Tell me, what kind of friend can't tell the other one the truth?
I bought her a red rose dipped in 24K gold. It cost me about 53 dollars. Yeah, she cut us off before I could ever even give it to her.
Umm... basically, I'm tring to just let it all blow over. Can anyone give me some idea of what to do to keep my mind off of this over the Christmas Break? And if you don't believe in Christmas that's O...K...! I still wouldn't mind hearing from you.
Thank you for your time.
This is Captain Cornbread speakin'. Over and out!

dude, that is what defines high school. guys and girls go through relationships like my fat uncle does ice cream sandwiches. girls, along with guys, are going through a period in their life when they just want (or atleast think they want) something better than the last thing (or current) they had. everybody goes through this and its can be very hard. kids are mean and dishonest with their feelings when they are your age. i'm sure you didn't do anything wrong, and she is just a slut who the popular guy is going to strike out with and then tell all his friends that they had sex and shes gonna be called a slut by everybody and her reputation will be ruined and she'll come crawling back to you and you'll have nothing to worry about!) hahaha jk. but to be serious, there arent many relationships that last very long in high school. most people grow out of this, and find out what they really want in a person and fall in love because they truely care about somebody, but this is rare in highschool. at your age, everybody is new to relationships because they've never really had a real girlfriend/boyfriend, and they don't know what they want, so they think they want what their friends seem to want: popularity, money, to name a couple.. this isn't what relationships are all about. so let her go and dont worry about it, its her loss.. lesson learned.

hope this helps, keep your head up..

Dude, thanks. I knew all that stuff already. What really would have helped (i'm not saying you didn't) is something saying.... I don't know not obvious. As a high schooler I know that relationships aren't supposed to last. I also know that guys and girls both go through this kind of thing. It's not like I've never been dumped before. Actually my girlfriend before this one broke up with me right before Christmas too. My problem is figuring out how to show girls what they would be missing without actually having to miss it. Do you know what I mean? I want to find someone who actually realizes that I don't do things just for the heck of it. Like I bought her that rose to show her taht Ididn't care how much it costs if she wants it I'll get it. I just haven't found anyone who realizes that I truly do know what's going on and that she can't lie to me. Well, I just confused myself.
Like I said though... I just need to let off some steam.
Oh yeah, thanks for reading and trying to give me some insight. I apreciate it.
I will probably have another more interesting blog soon. Probably not today but maybe soon.

Hi Capt. Cornbread, Aww... that really is ashame that things didn't work out for you... Sounds like you cared for her alot. Hey at least you still have the $53.00 rose, I'd just hang onto it until I met someone special to give it to. She don't have to know that you actually got it for your previous girl. Like the ole saying goes, what they don't know won't hurt 'em, right?
Hey you do really need to get this off of your mind though and not allow it to spoil your holidays. If I were you, I'd concentrate on just being single and think about all the fun I was going to have doing it. It really isn't all that bad being single. As far as the girl is concerned, don't allow her to think you really care about the break up. Graciously accept her offer to remain friends. Bare in mind that there are different levels of friendship. She can be one of those bottom of the list friends, if you know what I'm saying. It only serves to make you look bad if she thinks you don't wanna speak or have anything to do with her. She'd only start to spread rumors about you that you're a baby and a pouter. Just think off it this way Capt. Its her loss. She had a good thing and she didn't realize or appreciate it and let you slip away. She'll probably regret it one day but then it will be too late because by then you will be over her completely and have yourself someone else and someone way better. You don't want someone like her anyway. There is someone out there that will love you so much and will do anything for you. Thats the person you need to find. Trust me, she is out there. Now, think of all the fun you're going to have finding her.

Now for the first step you need to take. Take a deep breath, tell yourself that you accept the fact that its over with her and that you're not angry at her, (because anger only causes you stress.) and that you are now ready to move on with your life and not look back. Whatever you do, don't look back. Move forward only. You can do it. In the future, you'll see that it all worked out for the best. Then you will read this again and say, "hey, that guy was right."

Hey, thanks BemCityJoe. That was very helpful. Thanks for the support. And oh yeah, I think I may have found someone else I'm not exactly sure though but about the rose. She knows too so that idea won't quite work. Also, just about every girl in my school knows about it and think that it's her loss. Yeah, I'm not really mad anyways I just needed to say shat I had been building up inside my mind for a while.
Once again, thank you. Merry Christmas to you too.

The first thing to realise when you come out of a relationship, or if you get rejected by any girl for that matter - is the fact that she is not the first, or will not be the last, and there will be many happy rendezvous in between. As the old saying goes 'there are plenty of fish in the sea' you just have to beleive that saying, and make it your mantra if you will!

There is some rediculous stigma in society that reflects the attitude that the male has to impress the female to win her affections... almost as if the females choose their mates - unfortunately, this is probably true, but you have to get the idea of trying to please females out of your head... you need to socialise with your mates, and just have a good time - i dont know how ready you are, but as soon as girls see that you are not out to impress them, it sends a vibe that you are very desirable, and the less you act impressed towards the girls, the more they will try and impress you!!! please don't ask me how that theory works... i have no idea... just try it, and i am sure you will testify.

To put it bluntly, if you are not good enough for someone, they are not worth making the effort for. Just have fun!!!!

When I am down in the dumps and stressed out I help others. It gets me out of myself and lets me view life from a different angle. It doesn't take away the confusion or pain but does make me see it won't last forever.

Give the new girl the roses. Tell her some reason you come up with, I trust you on this. Man, oh man, it will work wonders and create a stir. Put yourself front and center, the topic of argument, just do it and sit back, they'll work it out.

So what you're saying is create problems with everyone around me and just sit back and laugh at everyone while doing so? Sorry but I promised the ex that I'd still give her the rose. I don't know why she still wants it but I'm a man of my word and I don't want to ruin that one thing that is going for me now. I'd kinda like to just keep it and give it to my next girlfriend but I said I sould give it to her so that's what I'm going to do. Plus, after some time I'll have plenty of money to spend again and I can just do the same stuff over again maybe this time with someone who will stick with me and then it will be worth it. Money ususally isn't a problem for me and I have a strange feeling that it won't be in the near future either.
Thank you, everyone who has tried to help, but like wahkonta anathema, you'll just have to trust me on this one.
Maybe I'll just ask her if it's alright if I keep it. I don't want to just not give it to her. If anything else "good" happens I'll be sure to tell you all but for now I'm just going to see what happens. You can keep sending your replies because I'll probably need help deciding on a few other "personal" topics.
You've all helped calm down a lot and I have a feeling if anything interesting does happen I can talk about it and get some good feedback. Just don't prove me wrong.
Next Holiday? Oh, yeah. Happy New Years! Almost.

"My problem is figuring out how to show girls what they would be missing without actually having to miss it. "

So far, I think it's a matter of figuring out which girl has enough sensibility and self-respect to recognise what's good for them, and nurture that relationship properly, no mucking around.

Some girls really can't seem to have that, OR takes them an extremely long time and lose several good people in the process. I'll be sure to let you know, when a way to show them the light comes to my attention.

Hey, guys. I still have the rose. I'm gonna try something out. Prom is coming up and I'm thinking of asking one of my girl friends to go with me so that I would have someone there with me who wold wear a duct tape dress. I figured that if she says yes than I might as well keep the whole idea of not having the real thing and just hand the rose to her. I figured it would work and nobody would really care that I did it anyways.

Yeah, I think that's a good idea to give the rose to whoever you decided to ask to prom. I'm sure she'll love it. Maybe she'll relieze how much she means to you. And as for the girl that dumped you,(i know that was a while ago) you should get over her. Obviously she doesn't know what she's missin. I believe that you're a good guy and you know what you are doing. And that's awfully stupid to just dump you or anybody for no reason at all. No offense to her, but I think she just goes out with a guy to have a bf. I wouldn't know though. Just a thought. If you're that sweet, she should've respected that, and relized that you really cared for her. But things like that happen i guess. But what can ya do?? Just let her go and don't worry about it. If she really does or did care about you then one of these days she might come back to you, wanting you again. But i'll be your choice on weither or not you'll hook up with her again or not. Not that i'm trying to tell you what to do, but if i were you I wouldn't go back out with her. Like I said I'd let her go and try to find another girl. One that would really care about you and that's not going to break up with you for someone else or just because she says she doesn't like you anymore. Trust me on this one. I've been in that situation myself more than once in my life as a teenager. Well that's all I have to say for now. Hope my advice helped you any. Untill next time.........

Thanks. You know what? I'm ending up going with a friends friend to prom but I think I'll still just give the rose to her. It means nothing to me now.
