how my relationship went down the potty [rant topic #4]

[Rally]

Why didn't you get a train or a bus or something? Is the public transit not good where you live?

I was going to emancipate myself, but then I realized, "Where am I going to live? How am I going to get money? How will I eat? Where will I sleep? Will I still be in school?".

But yeah, last resort and always have a plan if you do.

if emancipation is a serious consideration, then of course.

and i'd usually only seriously suggest it in cases of real abuse.

but we could let this one slide

There's no trains, and only like 1 bus in the county at most. The buses nearby only go south into Maryland.

Not everybody lives in city limits so he might not have a bus/train/taxi he can take to where he wants to go.

The fact this started over text message and not in person should be the first sign you know it won't work. Second, you're both putting your pride before your feelings. "Do you like me?" "Idk, do you?" "yeah" "me too!" Just say you have feelings from the start. Obviously if you're not comfortable sharing that information with her, you don't have to answer yes or no, but you tell her afterwards because "It was safe" because she said she has feelings. You didn't want to be vulnerable and that's another sign a relationship won't work. When you're in a relationship, you're putting yourself in the most vulnerable state socially.. Meaning you're fully committing yourself to this chick and if stuff doesn't work out everyones going to know that. Yeah that's embarrassing, but that's where trust comes from. You have to trust your lady isn't going to embarrass you, and she needs to trust you won't do it either.

Another point here is that you guys don't clarify stuff or wrap it all up. I'd be like "So are we dating now orrr?.." It seemed very unclear.

Sorry that everything didn't work out, but given all this stuff, if it wasn't for the ride problem, it might have been lack of trust/putting pride first in some situations.

Now for the girl getting a boyfriend.

She just didn't want to have a relationship with someone who can't hang out together as often. She found a guy who can hangout more that she has feelings for, and that's who she chose. It sucks yeah, but why would you want to date someone who lied to you about moving? I feel sorry for the other guy, who knows what she's lying to him about right now.

All in all, you seem way too young for an actual relationship anyway. Of course many people will disagree with me but you should just wait till you're a little older before you get into that area in life. You're at the age where everything is the world to you because of hormones and stuff. Just wait till you're older so you can handle these situations a little better.

EDIT: Wow Block of text....

you could have told her, "my mom won't drive me anywhere" instead of "maybe another day". thats what forgeted you over.

[ResonKinetic]

how old are you freek? get a job and save for a car

Yeah, should've been honest and said you're having problems with transport.

At the very least she might have suggested you do something a bit closer to where you are.
OR, she might have asked one of her parents to pick you up with her and drop you off at the cinema.

There's no point being embarassed about the fact that you can't get to where you want to be. And it's better to be truthful in that than say that you can't make it. From that point on it seems like you're putting other things ahead of the chance to hang out with her, and if it keeps happening it seems like you don't care.


The best thing you could've done was told her, and suggested that you perhaps do things together after school.
I assume you both get picked up by parents, or live in walking distance of your school.
All you'd have had to do was decide to go and do something with her after school, then you both could've walked there, or been driven there by one of your parents. And if all the parents know you're somewhere, they're going to be happy to get you back home afterwards.
That way you get to spend time together, you meet her family, both families know where you are, you get a free ride home and you're both safe. It'd be a complete win-win situation for everyone.
