I'm sorry to hear that, Anthony, I hope you feel better. It's always painful, even if you see it coming. Over email is pretty gutless too, what a dickless tool.

But is it better to have relationships that fail, or never to have had a serious relationship at all? (and be, like, over 20 - i'm not talking about 8th grade here)

I am wracked by questions about relationships.

For example, what is the relationship between the watercress, the watermark, and the water bed? Between the moon and the hovercraft? Between the dead, the sleeping, and what's for breakfast? What would Plato say about the relationship between Michael Jackson and Elizabeth Taylor? And when will the dove of peace stop beating the air with its wings?

But I digress...

Depends.

(sorry, meant to continue that last one)

It's important to know what rejection feels like. How many times do you need to know that feeling? Probably far less than the average person experiences.

Aimless, I hope you never leave this board.

But I would disagree with Yes there (only this once)
Is better to have loved and lost, then to have never loved at all?
Yes,

I agree, but what does that have to do with relationships?

replace relationships with love (that can be done, right?)

I can't seem to make an even remotely sane choice in who I would like to date, so I think I should be officially banned by the government from hooking up with anyone. I DESTROY LIVES! I MAKE PEOPLE FEEL GUILTY ABOUT THEMSELVES! I DRIVE MEN INSANE! It's my super power.

Depends.

The solution to relationship problems are adult diapers?

etc.

The latter.

― Joe (Joe), Saturday, 14 December 2002 11:19 (twenty-three years ago)

The former, all the way - I've had a few since the end of my marriage, and had a great time. The endings aren't great, but they've not been too bad either. The present one feels different - I really hope it will last, and I think if it does end soon I will be really pained by it. But even so, what I'm getting out of it, let alone the potential if it works, seems far greater than the bad side that I am risking.

tis better to have loved, lost then stalked slashed and snipered than never have climbed a clocktower at all

Anthony,
Look, your an independant person. You don't need anyone. You're a strong person with your own goals that relationships would just interfere with anyhow.

Now start out on those fucking goals, man. As soon as you get really into a project, some girl will fall into your lap and fuck up whatever progress you made, but at least you'll have the loving again.

ah fuck it i am so over the whole 'relationship thing' it is far better to go your own way alone. i dont agree that it is better to never love or lose etc, because those experiences are what (supposedly ) help us to learn and grow bla bla fucking bla.
i just think that when A Relationship is the thing you seek, you lose perspective on what is really important. no one person can 'make you happy', and you shouldnt feel like a failure if a love affair ends.
having said that.........
im sorry to hear your news, anthony, and i think that ending a relationship via email is possibly the most crappy thing ever.i hope you feel ok about it all very soon.

Errrrr.....

Aww, anthony. I will be sending some Afro Ken mail soon to cheer you up.

surely you mean some girl will fuck up his lap and fall into whatever progress he's made?

Sorry to hear this, anthony.

How are you feeling?
