I’ve called my few close friends so many times over girl drama in the past they don’t really have much to say anymore except to stop dating superficial girls who come easy, drink way too much, take prescription drugs, cause LOTS of drama but look hot as heck lol
You know part of me thinks you're trolling.... But were on the 4th page over the course of 3 days now....

Check out some of his earlier threads. Pure gold, if you are into that kind of thing.
So I guess technically I’ve never been ghosted @Scepticalscribe

But that’s not what matters I’m just glad we are still on. Thank God. She’s a real gem.

Thank you for the update.

Nevertheless, I am prepared to predict that a big, fat, suitably shivery, ghosting still lies in your future.

Oh I’m sure there will be many with the same person, but I don’t think it’s a real ghosting meaning she’ll come back.
 
lol what is macrumors a dating advice forum too now?
Yes, off and on since about mid 2000...
I’m curious what information you collected from your dates to reach this conclusion. And how did you collect it?

  • Customer satisfaction surveys,
  • CSAT scores,
  • Some type of net promoter assessment to determine the likelihood your date would recommend you?
You for got "credit card successfully processed" ;)

Bro are you sure you aren’t Socrates!?!?
:oops:...Socrates says stuff like
He who is not contented with what he has, would not be contented with what he would like to have.
It might do you some good to read up on Socrates and Plato.

exactly. She also has a lot to gain because I’m more than happy to provide luxury, gifts, pay her bills, and so on.
Here in lies the rub... you can't see past the most superficial and material things. What about loving her above yourself and your own needs? Sure you can pay money, but can you provide her with the love and support to become her best self? Can you gift her the freedom of trust and being a true partner in your relationship. Can you be the one to take care of her when she is is old or gets sick. In short will you value her for the rest of your lives? You did talk of marriage in another thread. But your thinking is still way out from that point.

Listen to your friends, especially when they echo the sentiments of a lot of relative strangers on the internet.
 
I was afraid she’d think how come I took the other girl(s) to nicer places

I realize I'm answering this like it's actual thing that happened ...

... but the quote above? That's a HUGE part of the problem if you think that, or if you think she thinks that, or if she actually does. It's lose-lose-lose no matter what.

Women want men who are fun to be with, funny, who are interesting, dynamic, maybe someone that makes them feel safe, or who provides some intellectual insight into the world, who maybe has an engaging hobbie.

Little girls and little boys talk about how much money they spent on their dates.

A real pity I cannot "like" this post more than once.
 
i just think it’s going to be ups and downs like I thought she might be doing it again but it was a false alarm so I edited this post.

I am overall happy. Nothing is perfect, and I’m willing to accept the bad for the good :)

but as long as I’m having fun, entertainmenT, drama, a companion to make memories with, it’s all right.

It’s a little more involved because she’s friends with people I’ve dated so I know this crowd well. It’s the same circle of people. And the drama has always been part of the fun (and misery haha!)

@DeltaMac

What an odd thread.

OP, why don't you just ask this woman to sign a contract that specifies how often and quickly she has to text you, when she needs to make herself available to you, and so on? Your payments can be adjusted on a sliding scale based on how closely she conforms to your specifications. Or just find an escort service.

Seems like a wonderful way to build meaningful memories.

1. Perhaps she’s not a gold digger.
2. Maybe she is, but good ones can recognize pyrite.

Either way it leads you here posting on MR. Welcome.
 
Well folks,

It's happening again. But it's all right. We chatted all week long, all day, everyday.

I'm learning more about her and I’m sure by now this is just what she does.

First time was hard, and that was when I first posted on here about it.

This time around it's not that bad, because I feel like things are going well.

My guess is she'll get back with me like she did last time.

She just likes playing this game.

and I’m ok with that bc I do like her.

she’s only honestly the best catch I’ve had ever when you look at her as a whole. Stunningly gorgeous, We have matching personalities, really fun to spend time with, and we have similar values. It’s a pretty decent match if you ask me. There’s 1 thing and that’s this game she plays sometimes but hey I don’t think I could find better without looking for a long, long time, if ever.

I wouldn't worry so much, plenty of fish in the sea.......


Well:

This was just two dates, right?

It's a long thread, but that's all old news. She got back with me since those posts and everything has been dandy. Perfectly great.


Until just now again haha.

Bottom line, you have to keep your anxiety in check when it comes to dating especially new relationships. Not saying this is you, but right now we are dealing with an emotionally unstable 18 year old Grandson who is stuck in an emotional, anxiety driven hole, and thinks the world has ended if he is dumped by a girl friend and pot is involved. He’s scaring us. 😢

Yeah I woke up pretty anxious like Its pretty severe.

So, I’ve been told two things:

1. My doctor gave me an anti-anxiety medication that can used AS NEEDED ONLY. Not daily. So I could take that.

2. My doctor said if you need to pop a pill to date someone find someone else. It’s not worth popping a pill for her

But they’re all like that. I’m dating the same kind of woman over and over again on repeat bc unfortunately I like that type of woman. They all play the same games. I’ve always only dated women in their early 20s like 20-23 and they’re all ridiculous.

and another thought that crosses my mind is, who cares. What bothers me is NOT that it may end Bc I’ll just find another one, but the hard part is just wondering what’s going on while I get the silent treatment/am being ghosted by her. It’s these games.

and to compound it, my ex and her are now “colluding” to bully me together when they decide It’s time to make my life hell. Like they’ve been talking more than ever I assume about me and then my ex via social media writes all this crap trying to break me down about how she’s hanging out with other guys and all this nonsense.

I might not be smart enough to avoid such women, but I’m smart enough to know if there’s another guy they would hide it and not be telling me lol

Listen apprantly these type of women are bad for you. If the goal is just to get laid, maybe you can tolerate it, but if your goal is to have a healthy long term relationship, you should realize the type of relationship you described, people who plays games in relationships, you don’t need it nor should want it. Find someone who does not play games and can have an honest relationship.

And as I mentioned it before, the person who has the least interest in a relationship controls it, for your own sake, with your temperament, you can’t afford to be the needy one. You are setting yourself up for sorrow, and to be taken advantage of.

If you're having the same issues with multiple people, there's a chance that the problem lies with you and not them. It sounds as if you like playing games yourself, as otherwise you wouldn't do it. Perhaps the excitement is part of the draw.

The unintentional humor is off the charts ...

So you should talk to your doctor about how none of this is happening, other than in your head ...
