If a girlfriend of mine would tell me about something mean she pulled with a guy I'd def tell her my honest, critical opinion while guys seem to like to stay out of it and just i.e. laugh. I've definitely been a witness of that kind of behavior before!

I agree with that. I think they are more likely to just stay out of it and not have much to say if they don't agree with what their buddy is doing.

To be honest: me, too! I feel like I am back in control now and am also glad he seems to be regretting what he has done. Tough luck for him though!

My guy was the sweetest, most caring and kind guy in the world for 4 weeks and you see how that changed...

I think you and I both have a similar relationship backgrounds and, before my recent experiences, I would have NEVER been ok with dating multiple guys at once and would have felt awful doing it but now I think it's a different game so I think it's ok until things develop... Hope that helps

same here, while I may talk to a few guys at once I'll only be sleeping with one if any at all.

I will let the guy know how I feel somewhat before I back off just to make sure i;m right about what's going on.

Feeling really alone tonight. I'm tired of feeling so lonely. I want to just give up and not care anymore, but I don't know how.

For now itīs just dating, a bit of kissing. Iīll sleep with a guy once I īve made my mind up and we are exclusive and there are no other guys in the picture.(Eventhough I am dying for a bit of action lol).
1 guy canīt make it until next week for our first date, he was so sorry poor guy.....which let the other one take even more lead (he texts me good night everyday...sweet, but intense ? He either really wants a relationship badly, or is just that way in general).
Guy 4 I havenīt met yet and really am unfortunately too excited to meet. (my friend is setting us up)Well turns out heīs seing someone at the moment, itīs not serious since he wants to meet me.....BUT I donīt know what to think about the situation, itīs not cool if heīs playing the field that way and that girl thinks they are exclusive whereas not ? They are not simply going on dates, they are spending a lot of time together, I donīt know if I should pretend I donīt know anything (yet). They might just be having fun together -they met for s*x right away-, he might just be having fun in general and I am attractive and he canīt pass up an "easy" opportunity..........or according to my friend, heīs a good guy, just waiting for a good and better match !?
Anyways, thanks to this thread, I am taking it easy, I am not jumping on conclusions and actions and plotting too fast.....I just say "why not" and "letīs see".

I know this may sound shallow, but I stopped "caring" by shifting the focus on ME. I changed my haircolor (something I'd always wanted to do), treated myself to new make-up/mani/pedi, new handbag and I even bought myself a small piece of jewelry to remind myself that I should always be #1 in my life (because sometimes we can get soooooo focused on finding someone else to make us #1 is their life, that we loose sight of how truly fabulous we are!).

HTH!


and on another note.....i was the victum of "drunk texting" (the 2009 version of drunk dialing lol) last night. I received a text from the army guy that I posted about a few weeks ago (the one that got made because I wouldn't hook up with him). When I checked my phone, I had two text msg from him at about 3am! One saying "I'm sorry" and then another saying "I love you". HUH????? I'm not mad or anything - even after the earlier episode where I had to hang up on him. He's had 2 tours in Iraq so I'm trying to give him the benefit of the doubt, because I'm sure that has a lot to do with his weird behavior. I dunno....
