Not bad, but here's a few:

Also yeah, that fucking sucks Rob. You know how people always say you should try and see things from the other person's perspective? When trying to divine their motives for instance. Which I always thought was stupid because people are complex creatures who make unpredictable decisions and do dumb shit, especially when there's no clear goal. Life isn't Game of Thrones were everyone's gunning for the same thing. Anyway, judging from your post she could be manipulative, indecisive, callous, selfish, deperate (clumsily trying to find the magic formula to keep an old and dear friend in her life somehow (aawww)). All, some or none of the above. Often times, I will just start typing before I know what my point is going to be. Whatever her angle is, what matters for you is your reaction to it all. That might sound selfish too, but that's okay if it's a cause for constant grief. But it seems you've already built in some distance and are at least somewhat coping?

In closing I'll say that being sentient sucks.

Two questions:
1) What's up with "Our young relationship was cut short by my parents basically forbidding me from seeing her"? What are you, a Montague?
2) Was that just a line, or are you really a manic depressive?

1) we were found kissing, I was grounded for three months. Told explicitly I wasn’t to see her again.

2) I’ve never been to a doctor to be diagnosed with anything. I do however go through sporadic periods of extreme depression, which I was intending to make light of :shrug:

I had a similar experience growing up. I had impure thoughts about a girl out of wedlock once and my fundamentalist catholichristitarian foster parents banished me to a teenage nunnery for a summer of penitence and reflection.

oh man what a summer. those girls found the lord alright. every single one of them.

I was maybe fifteen and she lived on the other side of the city. My parents were very strict, like ‘you’re not going to bed until I’ve heard you recite these four prayers’ strict, and i just lived under the iron boot. Better to keep my head down, not make too much of a fuss, and get out as soon as I can was my mentality.

GreyClock

I was at a party once, where I witnessed an almost perfect analogy for human existence. My friend got real drunk and as a result lost his motor skills and sense of spacial awareness. He needed a piss and something deeply ingrained in him stopped him from going where he stood. Instead he recognized a door and the promise of a bathroom behind said door. The problem was that there was one of those heavy wooden picnic tables directly in his path. Instead of walking around it, he just kept bumping into it. Bump! / Take a step back. / Bump! / Take a step back. / Bump! Like one of those toy robots. Had he died right then and there, it would have been airtight. We flounder around, we repeatedly and mindlessly bump into stuff and then we die. We dress it up with job titles and pizza toppings and aspirations, but that's what it really boils down to.

the title of the Japanese release of "Two Out of Three Ain't Bad" by Meat Loaf roughly translates to "66% Is Sufficient"

and this is how I learned Rick & Morty season 4 started
new season's ok but they're getting pretty lazy with the sci-fi stuff

I think the show's at its best when they take like a high concept sci-fi premise and carry it to its logical extreme by twisting it over itself in interesting ways and finding a way to marry that to a thematically cohesive story

the first episode of this season is actually a pretty good example with the death crystal, but the resolution doesn't really feel like a payoff to the direction it was headed, rick just shows up from the b-plot and fixes everything

they've still got the concepts but they just sort of let them get wild and sometimes don't even really bother mapping out the internal logic or tying them up in a satisfying way. the second half of the last two episodes are practically shitposts in plot form. it's funny, but almost in like a superjail or aqua teen hunger force kind of way

They've been struggling (successfully) to keep it good since season 2, and the moment they said they were signed for ten god damn seasons I knew this wasn't gonna last. it's still decent, they're trying, we're not even near this becoming zombie rick and morty, but they're getting progressively lazier. I bet it stays watchable till season 6. season 10 rick and morty is gonna be like season 25+ simpsons.

Clocktopus

season 3 was consistently weak imo

season 4 so far has been a hell of a lot better than season 3

Clocktopus

rick finding out he's in yet another fascist universe and then proceeding to bash his brains in is one of the hardest laughs i've gotten out of the show

Rob I just now read that long ass post.

Next time you have to fart, fart into your phone and record it with snapchat. Send that to her and leave it there. Unless you're absolutely sure she's "the one" for you, there's no point in pursuing any further. You can remain friends with her if you want, but keep your distance. Don't get hung up on it. In the mean time, use the failure (for lack of a better term) of her as motivation and get out there and date. There's so many different ways to meet people these days, you literally have no clue what's out there until you really start looking.

Also fart in your chair, get up as soon as you can, and press your face into it.

i dont mean to continuously clog up this thread with my bullshit but, i have come to terms with the closure of the situation. I've been with 5 women in the last year, since reconvening with this girl, and I am well aware that I need to find emotional fulfillment elsewhere. The issue is that when you know someone is out there who you have everything in common with, with whom youve never had a serious disagreement, who manifests all of your physical desires, it becomes very difficult to settle for less. Realistically, my standards are set too high, I am coming on 25 years old and the pool to draw from becomes increasingly smaller,  but i have become very accustomed to being single (never having maintained a relationship for more than 6 months) and would sooner try and find someone who I feel I can be wholly happy with, than resign myself to something less.


I've got a real 'everything or nothing' outlook on life SO ASK ME AGAIN WHY I WON'T UNBLOCK BB10 TO ACCEPT HIS COLLAB SUBMISSIONS

Dude, you've got plenty of time. I didn't even meet my wife until I was 32. Enjoy the freedom of your youth.
