Dude that is why they make Ex-girlfriends

Dump her.

She won't get better, only worse. And the longer you spend with her the harder it will be to split up, and the longer your life will be a missery.

Warn her once, warn her twice, then dump her.

Now where is Nostatic when you need him.

My buddy had a T-shirt on the other day that said:

Women are like parking spots....They're whores and liars. :D

I have an ex who was just always angry and pissy. I guess her vanity license plate "ill tempr" should have been an early hint. I thoroughly enjoyed dumping her. My last words as I was walkng out her door were, "The things you don't like about me are never gonna change." And then I went over to Marcesq's house to do an all-nighter engine swap. That was a fun time.

Ill-tempered women do NOT improve with time. After about the age of 27-28 they will not change. And there are so many more out there with great dispositions anyway. Why stay with a mean one? Life is too short. You'll end up like George Costanza's parents. Sure, they love each other. But do you want to have a shouting match several times a day?

there is alot of truth in this. the behavior we permit is the behavior we promote. not saying you have absolute control over her but you do have control over what you expose yourself to.

also, one of my nieces treats her father like crap because she knows it is safe to do so. he will never leave her because he's dad, so she takes out all her crap on him.

The other version of that very true adage is "Show me the hottest girl in the world and I'll show you a guy who's tired of hittin' it."

You need to learn the difference between a vagina and a pussy. She has the vagina and you're being the pussy.

Rikao4 08-21-2008 08:25 AM

Chalk it up to life experience and move on. If you are unhappy with your relationship more days than you are happy then bail. Life is to short.

bivenator 08-21-2008 09:10 AM

Lyon, you don't have problems, you have opportunities. 86 the current and get another. At this point it won't cost you half if you do. Have another drink, listen to velvet underground' s "to all tommorrow's parties" and fuggedaboutit.

Rick Lee 08-21-2008 09:12 AM

Another good song to get in the mood for dumping someone is Motley Crue's "Girl Don't Go Away Mad. Girl Just Go Away."

yeah man, thats what I did, then I had another drink and then another, then I went to the bar, and got really messed up. Got a head ache today. ouch.

For nearly 23 years I was married to a woman virtually my opposite. I am optimistic to the point of being Pollyanna. I think the world is my oyster. Most everything is good.....or at least amusing. I see possibilities. I gloss over other peoples' poor decisions. The world is a very exciting place.

She was just the opposite. Everything was always going wrong and I was the main problem. Eventually, it became emotionally difficult for me to be at home, in the house. It was just a bad environment. Bad vibes. I spent lots of time outside and in the garage. Eventually....she left me. I am really grateful for that.

Today, there is nobody in my home to tell me what's wrong. What's bad. Peace. Ahhhhh! My current GF loves to do stuff. She works harder around the house than I do. Never, ever whines. She solves problems. Very capable. This is a HUGE change from the last one who was helpless in every area except shopping. The new GF brews beer and we both love IPA's. Excellent cook. She is ALWAYS eager to do the Wild Thing and especially loves delivering BJ's. Ahemmmm.....we're talking complete BJ's here, to the finish. Life is good.

It's been five year now since my marriage imploded. I am still healing. Verbal abuse is abuse. It hurts, and it inflicts damage. I am lucky to have come out with most of my self-esteem intact. But again, some damage was done.

Can you guess what suggestion I would offer you?

Think of it this way, you just traded a daily headache that won't go away for one that will go away in a few hours:cool:

I've always been partial to Led Zeppelin's "Your Time is Gonna Come."

Lyin'. Ceatin'. Hurtin'
That's all you seem to do.

Dan in Pasadena 08-21-2008 09:26 AM

Lyon, You don't want to be the "bad guy", am I right? You can stand it when she is riding your butt (verbally!) but you cant' take it if you make her unhappy or make her cry?

Well, don't. Repeat after me, "This relationship isn't working for me and I am leaving. I wsh you the best, but I don't see it getting b etter for me and I am out of here".

Do NOT engage in all the psycho drama of a post mortem on the relationship. Do NOT allow yourself to think for a minute that you can "work it out" etc. I was married for 20 years and it ultimately never got "worked out". Don't text, don't have long conversations. When its over its over.

Here's a little tip; cynical and jaded? Yes but true. Good, healthy relationships don't have to be "worked on". That's a crock women want you to believe; and a lot of men have bought into that fiction. If a relationship is "good" - sexually satisfying - both parties, a fun woman/man you enjoy being with, someone you don't feel supersior NOR inferior to, she is respectful of your interests and you have no problem with her pursuing her interests? THAT'S a good relationship and it doesn't take "work". It takes faithfulness and appreciation it. That is all. Look for one of those and if you don't find it? Move the hell on with minimal drama.

P.S. to Supe. You are a smart man...and a lucky one. Sounds like you were as "devoted" to doing the right thing as I was. Took me a long time to learn, but learn I have. Its not "baggage" its experience. A smart person LEARNS from experience.

Drdogface 08-21-2008 09:27 AM

I'm 64 years old and when I look back at my youth I shake my head and wonder why I spent so much time with women I knew were wrong for me. Time's a wasting, my friend. Don't waste anymore. Go find one that is easier to get along with.

I think ill tempered women are hard wired that way...just like Calico cats .... you can pet them on their own terms and then they'll turn around an bite the crap outta ya' :rolleyes:

I met one of my hottest-ever gf's in a bar the very night another one had dumped me. My best friend and I went out to celebrate my new single status. Two scorching hot Asian ladies caught our eyes. The one I picked lasted about a year. The one my friend picked became his wife a few years ago. I can honestly say that every break-up I've been through, no matter how tough, has always led to better things. Somtimes it took a few hours, sometimes a few years. But it always got better.
