    Gotta have some Charter Tech come out and "test" the lines because my speed was a 5th of what it shouldve been. Oddly enough it just kicked back up and well over of what its supposed to be. 33.55/mbps down and 3.14/mbps up

    Same... however these online tests are crap because you know what you're testing for and, unconsciously, you want to score high because you want to find an answer.

    Ever heard of the honor system?

    You don't lie to yourself, that makes you a fool.

    I've been officially diagnosed with ADMILFHD

    Yes it's true, I can't be around a milf for more than 2.5 seconds without thinking about wait, wrong thread.

    mv - damn you, My life is now being ruining by the water I just spat over my keyboard through laughing...

    talladega - online tests can show anything, In my time (admittedly shorter than many) I've done ones for ADHD, bi polar disorder, clinical depression and something else I forgot... according to the tests I have all of them, according to me I most definitely do not! (Took them, answered truthfully, but wasn't doing them because I felt like any of the ailments)

    And find something to do - the less time you give yourself to be bored, the less time you have to think about it.

    Ruining my life at the moment... having to wait for paperwork to be done!

    i do feel a lot better today. Ive been very bored at work and havent had to really use my brain so my mind wanders a lot. Last night i went to bed late (1am) and woke up at 6. drank a bunch of orange juice and ive felt pretty good so far. Im also now doing more stuff that requires thinking.

    whats bothering me now is i askex my friend to hang out this weekend and she said she will still be gone visiting people. But i see on FB that she is back home. So i dunno if plans changed, if shes lying to me, or maybe she is back home for a few days before going away again.

    maybe im overthinking it and thinking too negatively?

    Note that being online on a social network simply means that she's accessing the internet somewhere. Unless she's just posted some status saying "I'm home! Who wants to hang out?!" don't be so ready to jump to conclusions! There are a multitude of different things that could be going on, don't worry about the appearances until you know facts! Only start to worry when you get the "I'll brb!" and she never goes to an 'away' status :sigh:

    See? She's sick! She doesn't want to spread it to you or isn't feeling well enough to be with friends. Tell her you hope she feels better and set yourself up by mentioning you should make plans for when she feels better!

    I've got a question for you guys. My girlfriend (sometimes) makes one phone call a day to me that lasts about 10 minutes and isn't about much. At home, she spends most of her time on the web, but not on AIM or anything. On Facebook, she'll be on FBChat, but she won't say a word to me. She'll hit "attending" to an event (a play at our high school) that we would normally go to (as a couple), but she wouldn't mention a damn thing about it to me, and I think if I hadn't asked about it, she wouldn't have asked to go with me. She knows full well i'm there to talk to, but she doesn't want to talk to me. If I initiate a conversation, then we'll have a decent conversation. But if I don't, then we won't talk at all. No communication. She doesn't initiate a damn thing.

    She wasn't always like this. Things changed about 2 months ago. We used to talk every day on IM and occasionally call/skype at night. We'd talk during school, between classes, and when I'd drop her off at home, she'd often let me in and we'd hang out for half an hour to an hour.

    Now, there does come a point where there just isn't anything to talk about. The thing is, there is. Sure, they're not important things (this play, what her plans are for the week), but they're things that boyfriend and girlfriend usually talk about. Hell, they're things that normal friends usually talk about. And then when I see her, we talk, and we don't have much to talk about other than colleges (and future things), because if there's anything in the now, we've forgotten about it, or she pretends that there's nothing current to talk about. Recently, when saying goodbye to me, it's no longer a proper concluding goodbye with any display of affection, but rather something short and brief.

    I suppose it could be her distancing herself from me in preparation for our breakup (Which we've set; July 23rd) and us not seeing each other since we're going off to different colleges. But is it right? Does this sound normal at all? This is some kind of ********; this relationship is one-sided. She's not interested in talking to me, unless I initiate something (Then she talks to me plenty). Should I cut it short or what?

    One awful thing is that I have the flu right now and as such, I haven't given her a proper kiss in two weeks. To cut it short would mean never getting the chance to kiss her again, basically. We'll just be "best friends" as she says (but would she ever ****ing contact me again or what?).

    Well if you guys have decided to break up due to going to different colleges, is which totally understandable for a young couple, then her behaviour makes a little sense to me.

    If she didn't love you at all, then she wouldn't feel the need to try and get used to not being in a relationship with you, and if she was head over heels, then she wouldn't be wanting to break up at all...

    But then again who knows? Maybe this is a test, to see how much you're in love with her? Maybe she was hoping you wouldn't want to break up, but because you've agreed to it, she's now deeply hurt, and that's why she doesn't want to chase you in any way like this?

    Just be honest with her, tell her what you wanna tell her (not saying to suck up and be a ***** of course), and get as much break up sex as possible, i'm talking about aiming for around 5 times per day :thumb:

    And Talladega, get off the interwebs, and go bring that girl some of your chinkin soop :naughty:

    Here's what I'd do:

    Cut things off right now. Setting a date for a breakup? Fuuuck! Seriosuly? Don't be so meek. "Oh yeah babe I'm totally going to continue to be devoted towards you for the next week and a half while we head towards an inevitable split." I'd break things off right now if they're clearly not going anywhere. No point wasting time.

    And if this is a test to see if you really want to break up...? Ditch the bitch. Nobody plays those sorts of games with me. It's just ****ing rude.

    And MV, using her for pre-breakup sex for the next nine days? Come on. Better to bang some bar skanks than the woman who's breaking up with you!

    TheMusician, you could still be best friends I guess, I don't really know your situation though... But you don't have to be. She's kinda uncommunicative, so would you really be bothered if you don't talk to her again? If you still have feelings for her that are unreciprocated, not being friends will make things easier on you.

    Basic fact of life:

    If there were feelings involved, which obviously was the case, then **** being friends after you break up.

    It just doesn't work.

    Why?

    Because in order to be friends after a relationship, the romantic feelings both of you had need to be gone. If one of you still has romantic feelings for the other, sooner or later, **** will happen. Because someone always moves on first and someone will feel like he/she got left behind - and that leads to crap.

    Give it time... and I'm talking a couple of months up to a couple of years depending on how long you were together, then give it a try.

    Of course you can do whatever you want, but I can almost assure you that ceasing contact is the best solution in the long run. And dude - she's way ahead of you judging by what you wrote.

    BTT: my freakin' head ache is ruining my life atm. Damn that pathetic truck driver that rammed my car at the end of a traffic jam all those years back... someone get me vicodin pronto!
