Why do they allways want to be friends afterwords (rant)

God dammit.

Since the summer, I've been going to burger king every other weekend for lunch (yeah, i know)... It's right across from work, and it's cheap (2 burgers, small drink, 3.17)

I met the cashier, got to know her and whatnot, finally got the balls to ask her out a month or so ago. I've been NICE. Went to a movie, had dinner... bla bla bla. I got to know her parents (who love me), and she got to know my mom (who thinks higly of Kiersten). We were having a nice conversation, she was accually in texas this last weekend, visiting her brother. All of a sudden, I get a "i need to say something"

GDMMIT, I know what that means, I REALLY do...

She's going into the Navy, and is going to be taking tests and stuff. She says she doesnt have the time to go out with me, or anybody else. She's like to be my friend still, but not so close anymore.

WTF????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????/

Am I retarded, or did I just get dumped because shes too busy?

What the hell did I do wrong?

This happened at about 9:30, I just got home a few min ago (1:45). I've been crusing around town with no particular destination, wound up spending some time with a friend who I saw pulled over by the 5-0 for illegal exhaust...


So, I'm sitting here, killing a bottle of Captain morgain, wondering what the **** did I do wrong...?

mabey I should grow up, or something, and realize I'm still young? And that relationships at this poing dont mean anything anyways???

why ****ing me?

Well if she's busy, she's busy! Honestly, don't take it to heart. Women do some stupid stuff, but this time it sounds genuine - joining the Navy isn't an easy task, she'll have to leave everything and everyone she knows behind, so splitting up with you now will make it a lot easier for her later on.

You are out of your mind. Stay single. Bang anything that walks. Settle down later in life.

Probably every guy here got it at one time or another - or many times.

Just move on.

Because they don't have the balls (obviously a figure of speech) to say, "Ok, I guess we're done here." Sad, but usually true.

I usually don't reply to these , but you seem sincere enough.

That would be wishful thinking, yes.

As to 'why' it happened, forget about it. You will go mad trying to decipher why. Just accept it. It happens to everyone. If men every truly understood women, the universe would likely end, or at the very least Elvis would return from the dead for a last concert with Jimi Henrix on guitar.

What he said. One of the greatest lessons you can learn in life is that "why" doesn't matter in situations like this. "Is" trumps "why", and "why" won't change "is". Forget it and move on to more important things, like things you can actually change.
