Kiechi's problem

[Kiechi]

OK. I'm a dick, I can't help but get emotionally attached







F**K. Even the thought of her being with someone else could send me over the edge, I'm actually tearing up thinking about it. I could actually cry.







WTF.


P.S - I am still pretty pissed, but the aftermath pissed.

[vashti]

Aww, does seem to reciprocate your feelings, my darling? Or are you falling for the wrong girl?

[Kiechi]

I don't know, I really don't know. I really, really, don't know.

[vashti]

Have you been dating her?

[anachronistic]

That is a crock of shit. Don't get attached to her, or else...

I don't understand why girls always do that rebound crap. Don't make a commitment in this early stage, keep your options open, because chances are that isn't worth the effort.

[Tiay]

duh, lilwing, he can't exactly help it.

aw, kiechi, that's so sweet. I hope you don't get hurt.

What's the definition of a rebound guy, btw? I always thought it was when the girl jumps right into another relationship and then realizes she's not ready for anything serious. The girl in this case though seems to know she isn't ready yet, and is taking it slow, on the commitment side. Isn't that how it's meant to be, anyway?

kiechi, break this off already. it's too much. be real with yourself.

Sometimes people have a "transitional relationship", which they knowingly enter into for the sole purpose of using the person to get over their ex. I can't remember which LF poster coined the phrase "emotional tampon", but it applies.

I call bullshit!

[Tiay]

lol... emotional tampon.. very fitting. Well then is this girl going to spit kiechi out and flush him down the toilet?

lilwing: gee, yes, i'm sure kiechi made up this whole thread just to toy with us. Honestly lil, it's your turn to shut up. You claim kiechi is always singling you out and such.. well, you're doing the same damn thing. You have no right to use the victimized card if you're encouraging this little rivalry. Please PM instead of posting OT.

It's a possibility. I don't know how big Kiechi's bullshit meter is, but I would break up in his case.

[Tiay]

hmm.. I dunno..

break up because he likes her too much? There's always the risk of breaking up and being hurt. Why not just take it slow instead?

[Gigabitch]

Haven't we all done this at one point or another? I know I have, too many times. I've pursued something far beyond the point where I knew it would be smart to turn back, past the point where my friends expressed no confidence in the guy, even, on one memorable occasion, past the point where my friend Lissie was in my kitchen with a red tea towel doing semaphore and yelling "RED FLAG!" at me.

Kiechi is making a mistake, and it's gonna burn him. Personally, I feel for the guy. I'm getting out my emotional first aid kit right now.

[Tiay]

seems like it's a universal ailment. Love/chemistry is pretty much like a drug, anyway.

Seconded. This stuff happens a lot, to everyone.

But, maybe everyone needs to go through it at least once.
