[QUOTE=Bread Dog;37704517]Well guys. I broke up with my girlfriend of 7 months today. The constant arguing, not having time for eachother (Jobs) finally got to me and I did it. I felt like it was going to end and my feelings were beginning to change. Im starting to regret my decision though. I feel terrible because she was so upset.
Did I do the right thing facepunch?[/QUOTE]
if you both tried to make it work out, and it didn't happen then yeah probably

About two weeks ago I saw my girlfriend in a swimsuit for the first time. My God she looked great.
[QUOTE=WastedJamacan;37692270]Guys I need help.
I've been thinking about volunteering for deployment (in the army) for a few weeks now. This would pretty much benefit me in every way except that I'd be leaving my girlfriend and fam behind for the better part of a year. Benefits include at least $16000 in pay to take care of schooling costs, a 50% increase on a college benefit, and delaying my graduation to after my unit is deployed in 2016 (when I contract with ROTC, I won't be deployable until I graduate). My girlfriend of 27 months doesn't want me to, and she thinks that there might not be a relationship to come back to. I feel that if it doesn't last the deployment, what's stopping our marriage in the future from falling apart when I deploy (because I'm pretty much guaranteed to deploy at some point.
What are your thoughts?[/QUOTE]
I kinda got looked over (I assume) yesterday because of the whole joshdasmif ordeal.

As a disclaimer, I am not currently in the military, nor have I ever served.
I do however know a couple guys in the Marine Corps, and I have heard that relationships/new marriages tend to deteriorate over deployments.
That being said, you have been with this woman for 27 months.
That's quite a long time for a relationship, and isn't deployment only 6 months?
Talk it out with her, explain that its beneficial for you, and thus also beneficial for her (in terms of debt/finances). If you volunteer, she can prepare a little for it, and you get to leave at a time of your choosing rather than the military suddenly telling you to go. I have a question though, when she says she thinks there will not be a relationship to come back too, is she genuinely concerned or is she hinting that she'll break up with you?

Army is 9 months, Air Force is 6. Not sure about the Marine Corps or Navy.
And she by no means is hinting at breaking up with me. She's made this clear. But what she is saying is that she doesn't know if she can maintain a relationship with me over this time.
I told her about the debt and finances and such, but her reply was that she would help me pay off my debt, whatever it takes and however long it takes.
[QUOTE=A1t;37703081]why do girls never take compliments?
[B]"you looked good today"[/B]
"no i looked awful"
[B]"you looked great"[/B]
"no it was terrible"

"i don't like my glasses"
[B]"i think they make you look cute"[/B]
"no they don't i hate them"
:suicide:[/QUOTE]
because they like being complimented, everyone does, they say the opposite because they want more compliments to make themselves feel good
when they say that then say [B]"okay then you look terrible"[/B] and say it with a straight face
but you have to be charming when you say it other wise it's weird

You are not doing yourself any favours telling a girl you like she looks terrible no matter how charmingly your say it.
Don't tell her she looks "good" or "great", tell her she looks beautiful and then say something you like specifically about them, such as their eyes or the way they have their hair. Girls like to know people notice certain things about them, try and keep away from complimenting her personality straight off the bat too.
It's also not really a good idea to compliment a girl with too many other people around (especially other girls), she will feel obligated to say she's ugly or fat because that's just the way they think together.
[QUOTE=Autumn;37698915]i dunno, if it'd been hit by a car, chances are it was in a fair bit of pain. it's more humane to kill it there and then so it's not suffering any more[/QUOTE]
i don't like assuming to know what another living creature would prefer
i'd like to think if it would rather be dead, it'd kill itself

Just got dumped by the girl I loved, and consequently, the girl who took my v-card.
[QUOTE=BoysLightUp;37709677]did you bone up?

No. I've already had sex with her a few times. I don't know, it was just different.
My girlfriend is finally coming over to my house and my parents are gonna be here to meet her and whatnot. it was her idea to come over and I'm excited, but she's really self conscious, and worries that my mom won't like her. I tell her not to worry, she's beautiful etc.
I know my parents will be nice, but I'm just wondering if you guys had parent troubles the first time you introduced your boy/girl friend to them. I just need some reassurance <3
just realize that meeting parents is awkward for a lot of people.
you don't know what to say, and you feel as if every single possible flaw in your personality or looks will be ripe for examination and conversation/accusation with their child.
i don't think anything will go wrong, but it can be very awkward for some people

I am a half-Jamaican (mulatto), so I look some what Jamaican, or black. In all honesty, I don't really like "niggaz". They're really annoying and I get flustered being called African-American because people identify African-Americans with niggaz and rappers and what not (I am just speaking from personally experience). Black people automatically think because of my appearance that they can relate to me and all 'blackish' or whatever around me. I am probably the 'whitest' 'black' that people know.
Anyways, my girlfriend is mulatto as well. Her father is African-American, born and raised in Detroit. My girlfriends mom was really cool, she's into bands like Nirvana, Tool, Circle Jerks and what not - fucking awesome. When it came around meeting her dad, I was fucking scared. I met him when I went to her uncles wedding (which of course she invited me to). Now, this wedding was [b]in the middle of Compton[/b]. It was pretty fucking ghetto. In the 'prep' room or whatever you call the place where the men got ready, my girlfriend's uncle and uncle's best-man corner me and said to me, "Who the fuck is you?", "Oh your her boyfriend?, "Why do you like her?", "It's not for her looks is it?", "Don't fuck with her or we'll fuck you up!".These two buffs niggaz were ready to beat the shit out of me and I was scared. If I fuck up with my girlfriend, I'm a dead man.

this would usually be weird and kind of racist, but since you're half-Jamaican it's just kind of funny
this is why stereotypes are bad kids

Before seeing this, I didn't know what to call them. After seeing this, I didn't know what else to call them besides "niggaz".

calling dudes niggaz is so 90's, it's making me feel nostalgic.
