How to get over a girl fast?

Well what happens is we make human connections. Thing is right now she probably doesnt seem to be the girl you are going to end up with.

People come and go and your memory is kind of like an lcd monitor where if you press on it shortly all these colors (and these colors are like feelings and emotions and shit) and stuff appear, but the people who are around for awhile the colors sometimes fade less slowly or stick around forever.

1 month? Her shit will fade, you wont even remember your conversations or events with her in a few months.

So the trick is to find the people who you want to permanently ruin your screen with.

Fuck yea! metaphors and stuff.
 
You, young sir, are the safety net back up boyfriend in case things don't work out with her ex.

Don't spiral around and let her know you'll wait to let HER tell YOU what YOU want to hear.

You're clinging on hope, and looking for closure when she doesn't seem to want to give it since, like I said, you're the back up.
 
The find a new girl thing is effective but not practical. Its not that easy for everyone. Accept that you were a rebound (she was doing the find a new guy thing). Acknowledge and take some solace in that the other guy was an 'ex' for a reason and will reclaim that title in due time. More importantly, CUT OFF ALL TIES. When going back to her ex blows up in her face(lulz), do not respond to her attempts to contact you. I promise you that you'll feel worse if you make an attempt to maintain any sort of relationship (even if its just friendship) with this person.
 
Thread-jack!

Six years, lived together for four. First love, only girl I ever made love to. It's been two months and I'm still wrecked. What do I do?!?
 
People still haven't figured this out yet?

Sleep with her sister/best friend/hot mother (note: last one does require her to be substantially hot). Lay pipe to 'em like its Mario 3 time and you gots lots of racoon leafs and hammer bros suits.

Seriously. Works every time.
 
Start a new thread.

Oh wait, you can't.

You hooked up with a coworker and the worst thing that happened is she got back with her ex?

Sounds like a good situation to me. Certainly couldve been worse...just go hang out with some friends this weekend and move on.
 
Well she is supposedly coming on wednesday evening after dinner to talk about things.

Whatevs! I'll see! This thread has provided me with many laughs and some good solutions. I've already cut off all contact for the most part but that all depends if she comes by on wednesday or not. Not that I would want to get back with her, but still. I would like to clear out some of the awkwardness on the workfloor. We'll see......she might just as well not show ( again ).

( I'll still clean up my place tho lol )
 
Women (humans in general) tend to be fickle, emotionally charged creatures. As a man, you should enjoy the time you spend with a girl who's infatuated with you, but take caution with forming strong emotional attachments. That way, if and when she throws you a curve ball like "my ex sent me a love letter so now I have feelings for him again, bye," you're not devastated and crying in a corner and can resume normal awesome life as soon as possible. This has the added benefit of encouraging behavior where she's going to try hard to win your emotional engagement if she wants it (e.g. a lot of blowjobs). You're not being a dick, still treating the other person well; you're just protecting yourself.

Have fun and be cool. It's the healthy modern approach.

CUT OFF ALL TIES.

That can help actually. As they say, "out of sight, out of mind". If I really like a girl, but she isn't interested in me or more interested in someone else, I do have a tendency to just stop speaking to her, and try to avoid her. Unfortunately that isn't always easy, especially if they become aware of it and end up feeling sorry for me. It doesn't help the situation. The chances are I am just going to interpret it as her actually being interested in me, and it is defeating the purpose of me keeping my distance in the first place. I tend to do that whether it is just infatuation, or something more. It's easier that way. I'd rather not be thinking about someone I know I can't have. i'd rather forget about her and move on.

I would prefer that she just didn't speak to me really.

Holy shit man, this is my life right now. If someone said that I wrote your post I would believe. lol

It's good advice in principle. Sometimes it's not always so easy to put into practice though. Of course you'd probably be better off holding something back. The thing is, you could go into a relationship with that philosophy only to find yourself becoming attached to her anyway. Sometimes it just kind of happens.

The point is anyway, at this moment in time it is affecting him. Telling him to be more emotionally detached from her isn't going to solve anything. It's like telling a person with some kind of phobia to not be scared. it's not as simple as that. lol


Holy shit man, this is my life right now. If someone said that I wrote your post I would believe. lol

I am you from the future Jason.

If your name really was Jason, this would fuck with your head right now
 
Evil Lores advice is probably the best in the thread. I've seen women walk face first into brick walls trying to earn the emotional engagement of a confident, aloof man (and vice-versa; fedora guys with hot women.) People like chasing carrots on sticks and it's usually just the thrill of the chase or the prospect of having the man/relationship of her dreams if she still keeps working towards her goal that keeps her excited and interested. It's not because " she only goes for the assholes!1" /fedora. Nope. People love confidence.


Our brains are hardwired to think rejection is the mental equivalent to getting drop kicked in the face. That the end of a relationship is the end of days. Confidence is the most powerful tool in the human social arsenal. Gets you laid, gets you good job prospects, gets you awesome.
 
Get in shape and get a girl or youll end up like me. I still masturbate to my ex and sometimes cry at night. Its been years since she left me. All my love is inside a sock.

Again it is good advice in principle. I've stated before on these forums that I am very wary of women. I've known too many girls in a relationship who were willing to cheat on their boyfriend with me. It makes you more reluctant to form serious relationships; to become too emotionally attached. However, it sometimes just happens anyway. You naturally grow bonds with people.

The problem is, it is not any kind of advice that helps him right now. It's all very good telling him that is how he should be, but it is very hard to just switch off that way of thinking isn't it?

Yes.
Great post.

But cue the typical "b-b-but if you aren't chiseled man perfection you still won't get a girl!" responses.

Confidence makes damn near anyone more attractive.
 
Have daydreams about rescuing her from a group of terrorists at a chance meeting at a staged bank robbery. She desperately looks up to you and shouts "I love you OP! I'm so sorry I rejected you!". Look at her with dead cold eyes (and keep in mind your face is all gruff and handsome looking from the firefight) and whisper "The feeling isn't mutual. Have a little cold shoulder bitch"

Then walk away in slow motion with ash falling behind you while she drowns in a self loathing existential crisis of utter regret for the rest of her life.
 
Long story short, I messed around with this girl who I work with for a month, but she went back to her old boyfriend and she left my ass in the cold. I need to get over this bitch fast! I've already smoked alkl my stash and drank all my alcohols

=X

you got used bro lol, don't take it so personally. that's all I can say. not sure why you'd care about someone who used you like that anyway. the best way to get over her is to either play video games or go out and find another girl
