If you get a boyfriend...

[treanir]

If you find a boyfriend, don't send me a message bragging about it.

Seriously.

I've had enough now.

I mean it.

Just FUCK OFF!

 

[treanir]

Who the fuck would do something like that?

Is there at least some history between you and the poster in question?

I've been getting "OMG I have a boyfriend" messages like crazy. Even an "OMG surprise wedding!!!" one - that one really fucked me up. It seems that every morning there's a new PM, e-mail, text message, voicemail or whatnot from a bubbly guy who just HAS to tell me about his new boyfriend. It's driving me absolutely mad, it makes me feel unhappy, rejected and inadequate (cue psychobabble about cognitive traps), makes me want to curl up and cry in a corner and most of all, it makes me resent the man for being such a prick.

 

[treanir]

Dicks, plural.

And cheers.

*cancels the pm he was about to write*

come on .. I know you just want to rant, but they probably were just happy and wanted to share that feeling

Since when does prattling off about the glory of your new boyfriend (who is so Magnificent and Glorious) to someone who's eternally and unhappily single bring the Singleton happiness?

I know you're right and no harm is meant by happy relationship guys, but in the meantime I'm the one who gets messed up and suddenly has the concentration span of a 3yo with severe ADD.

 

[Corny]

Well I don't know what kind of messages you get .. if someone says me "woah I am so happy X and me are finally a couple" then it is fine.
If he goes on for pages how wonderful the guy and every single of his features and habits are, I might come over and murder him, no matter how happy or not I might be at the moment

 

[treanir]

if someone says me "woah I am so happy X and me are finally a couple" then it is fine.

If it happens a few times daily? Not really. It wears you down, it really does.

And no, I'm not exaggerating the numbers here. It's been happening at least daily and oftentimes twice daily for a while now.

(it's usually "I found a boyfriend his name is X and he's [twenty words describing his Glory]")

 

[Jory]

Next time you get that message maybe you should reply: Yeah? So what does have to do with me?

 

[Yooper]

OK, well how is this:

My Partner of 20+ years is driving me nuts because all he does is sleep on the couch and piss and moan about his crazy ass sisters and take care of the incredibly lovely but pain in the ass dog. His mess has overtaken the living room, the kitchen, and is starting to overflow into the freaking yard!!!!

Besides that, when he is glued to the TV set and yells at it, thinking he is a Log Cabin Republican, he has no idea that when he's drinking, he's actually a SCREAMING liberal!

I'm married to a Couch that Burps!

(Hopefully, you will see that all is not Roses and Honey in an LTR. )(

 

[treanir]

I'm married to a Couch that Burps!

I've always wanted one of those!

 

[treanir]

Oh, you're fucking kidding me. That's the third "OMG I have a boyfriend" message I got today.

WTF is happening??? Where are the hidden cameras?

 

[alley]

I don't have a boyfriend--no prospects either...does that make you happy.








I do have a date later though.

 

[treanir]

No, the opposite doesn't give me joy.

believe you me, i'm sympathetic and feel your pain.

over the weekend i got two "i scored/got laid" messages which are just as bad. i'm sure they just wanted to sound off about how happy they are but it does sting. it makes me feel unhappy, rejected and inadequate as well. anyhow, i know how you feel.

Are these messages from people who you've had "normal" chats in the past, and have now progressed into these show-off messages? Or are they from a few random people who have given you the "honor" of their new-found happiness?

 

[braex27]

What also irritates me are those who, when they're singles, will be your best friend but the minute they hook, it's like you don't exist...and then, guess who they run to when things don't work out with Mr Perfect?

AAAAAARGH!

Both. Online friends, people I've only chatted to a few times, good friends of mine...

The latter category has the highest chance of getting an honest "Great! Tell me all!". The others... not so much.

So true! Some disappear for years, but one day they suddenly remember YOUR number and Email Adress again. Best response is WHO?

I hope you find a boyfriend one day treanir - long term online relationsships with someone one the other side of the globe is desperate. Look a little closer
OR rent one!

Yopper - Ever considered getting one of those electrical dog collars? I have heard they can work miracles on partners like yours. Put it on him next time he falls asleep and your home will be spotless in less than a week!
