Love Triangle...... Save my Life....

Post Reply New Topic

Not if you have an insanely good memory like me. I literally can't forget anything once it's in long-term memory. I remember a rejection from 9 freaking years ago like it's yesterday. Sure, time has diminished it slightly, but even then the feeling still lingers in that it was the first in a long string of failures, each one causing more pain on top of each other.

I remember rejections from 20 years ago like it was yesterday.
But that wasn't what I was saying.

Infatuation shifts.

Thankxx to all for your replies....

I know its the common perception that no one die with out food oxygen etc...

But... you must had listen about the love stories like Romeo Juliet and many others, i think i might be from one of them....

So my friends this is myth for me that i can survive with out her......

If you look at romeo and juliet from an objective sense, it's actually kind of creepy. Most of shakespeare's work is...

Hard to generate Romeo and Juliet level confusion in the age of cell phones and email.

Except there's a difference, if you actually want to use a fictional story in place of reality. That difference is your female friend DOESN'T LOVE YOU. Juliet loved Romeo. There's absolutely nothing romantic about your approach. It's super creepy.

Romeo and Juliet was a story about 2 infatuated teenagers.

And they didn't die as a direct result of not being able to be together.

That's because you haven't read it in the original Klingon.

As for not being able to live without her . . .

First, Romeo and Juliet isn't about unrequited love. Try 12th Night. Not that anyone does productions of it anymore (unfortunately for you, King Lear seems to be en vogue for Shakespeareans in the early 21st Century). Had R&J been about unrequited love there would have been one, maybe two deaths in the play.

Have you considered the Jane Eyre approach? Maybe her beau is a psycho and you just need to wait for him to go off the deep end.

Second, get a grip and grow up. You took your shot -- and you fired off the big guns and called in the bombers when you went with "marry me" -- and the fact is she said no. So, unless you're gonna dig a pit and go all Buffalo Bill on her (in which case, get started), there is no remaining play left.

Seriously. You're at the point where kidnapping is the only remaining option. And that's a bad idea. And illegal. And also, unless she's in the small minority of women with major rape fantasies, it's probably not going to make her happy at all.

That's where you're at.

Your options are:

1. Do nothing. Write bad poetry about unrequited love -- that's an add-on and not required.
2. Grow up. (Recommended.)
3. Kidnap her and throw her in a pit. Make sure "it puts the lotion on". (Not legal. Not advised.)
4. Good-bye cruel world. (Not advised, but as a libertarian I'd never tell you outright to not do it.)

Anything else is just being histrionic.

Take a look at the list. Growing up is the only viable option.

QFT.

I'd put it to you that you do not love this girl. You never have. Love is based on shared experience and mutual understanding, and you have neither - this is an obsessive desire for something you can't have. Do you actually want this girl at all, or are you using your "love" as an excuse not to look for something real?

Love someone else, make it a square.... or um....two parallel lines.

You can not make some one love you

I disagree.

I can make you love me in a tick.

*Mwah*

Its not love if its by force The Face Of Boo

*blows an ivy cloud*

I'm the same way. Telling me to "get over it" is useless. I can't, except in my own time, which can be YEARS! And I have TRIED! I am *still* wishing for a delete button for my memory!

Growing up in this case is not about "getting over it". It's about realizing that however you feel, the facts are known and the facts are not in your favor.

No one is asking you to immediately seek out the memory zappers from Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. But, we do ask you to realize that you have tried and failed and you should respect another human being's wishes whether you like it or not.

Harbor it all you want. Lots of great novels, songs and poems have been written by people who harbored the exact same feeling you have now.
