You're learning first hand the lesson that women don't care about what you 'do' for them. You were like that guy who gave her a chance when she was fat and you helped her lose weight and she lost it and got fine and left you for another dude. Honestly, sounds like she got bored and peeled off. Women don't appreciate stability, being there for them or any of that. Sounds like she's trying to keep you on a string and pulls you back in whenever she's bored. You were her emotional providerman. You gave her a chance and she keeps ending up distant. A lot of dudes here experienced the same pattern. She supposedly loves you and you're the man she needs, but she's cool with not seeing you for months on an end? Assess a woman by her actions, not by her words. Nah, sounds like she's in a drought doing whatever she's over there doing and decides to drop in for a little while. Me personally, I'd move on. It might be hard because of all the feelings you got, but now you understand how the game goes and what we've been talking about in this thread. Time to keep it pushing
How about this Kev. Let's agree that he's not gonna let her go. She must be really hot or still with her out of history and convenience (perhaps, lack of options).
Can we tell him that the gaps/months in between the times that she wasn't with him... she was very likely/inevitably seeing other men?
The reality of the situation is that yes, she DOES get bored. And i'm sorry to say, but he didn't CHALLENGE her enough.
Getting 4.0's in school is a direct correlation of a man who has his shiit together... and crazy women aren't about that.
But we can't convince op that he has to move on cuz we KNOW HE WON'T. So to remedy this dilemma, and he's not willing to jump shyt/avert the ratch...
... it is imperative that HE MUST PLAY HER GAME!!!
As a dude, i couldn't put up with that bullshiit. But i also know that everything is a two way street and the collateral damage can be returned just as bad or even more harsh than it was originally delivered.
If dude wants to salvage it, what he has to do is start dating other people. Dude is obviously TOO AVAILABLE for her. And the bytch knows that. Hence, why he always takes her back
when its convenient.
Next, completely ignore her for an entire month. This says that he has "more important" shiit going on. Why this guy even picks up the phone knowing she's playing games is beyond me... but he's going
to have to give her a dose of her own Robitussin.
Out of concern, jealously, unavailability, it will make her feel like she ain't worthy... and she will type hard creep back into his life.
I know it seems like a lot of work, but its reality and OP is invested and obviously wants to make it work. You just got to have a little edge when you're dealing with these ratches (sorry to refer to your
woman as such, but her behaviors exemplify/categorize her as such, if she knew better she's act better).
The thing about these types of scorned chicks who have been in a multitude of tumultuous relationships... their psyches are really fukked up. And if the turbulent elements of their previous flings aren't existent in their current unions... they ultimately get bored. That's why you MUST have an edge cuz the majority of these broads with all this mileage fly their minds proverbial planes and never land... so they accumulate all this baggage that never reaches the grounds. Aka the terminals of sanity.
Some girls change, and want a good guy like OP...
But most of them stay tarnished and tainted, always yearning for that next argument or reason for her to go off because "that's what gets her rocks off!"
OP, if you're listening, you're basically playing clean up man and this mess is beyond what you can control. You either play the game or put the controller down and walk away... forever.
Those are you're only two choices. Treading this ordeal the way you have been is only gonna kill your spirit, wallet, relationships with friends/family... and worst case scenario...
... your own life.
And that's what separates the men from the mice. The pits from the poodles...
... the captains --- from the crunch.
My question to you, computer nerd nurse...
... are you aboot that life?
