it's my turn...

so about a month ago my boyfriend (ex, presently) broke up with me. the final act of our relationship ended on cinco de mayo when we went to his friends house, had a few drinks, and decided to walk to the 24hr supermarket to get some donuts. (i should mention that i take a pepsi with me for the walk there) as they're getting donuts i go to the bathroom, come out two minutes later and they're gone. so i sit and wait for them for about ten minutes. and no boyfriend. so i go all over the store looking for them, decide i'm thirsty and crack open my pepsi. so here i am, drunk, pissed as hell because i'm thinking they ditched me, stumbling about the store looking for my boyfriend and his friend. it just so happens that late at night they have a security guard at the store entrance (to stop people like me). so i ask him if he saw the two guys i came in with leave and he said "yes they went outside". and then he asks me if i paid for the pepsi. "yes, jerkoff, you watched me walk in with it. *insert sugary sweet smile here*" so i go outside and for some reason it occurs to me: what would he do if i just threw my open pepsi at him? and before i know it the can of pepsi is flying through the air at him, catches his shoulder, and sprays all three of us with pepsi outside of the store. all i wanted to do was laugh and cry at what a stupid thing i did. all he said was, "you know that we're done now. forever. let's go." and he starts walking away.

so, as i said, that was the final act. at least he was nice enough to drive me home. i havent seen or spoken to him since because what kind of idiot would do that sort of thing? not me.

our relationship before cinco de mayo was alright. we'd been together for about a year and a half and we'd done a lot of cool things. he was into offroading in his jeep and going out and shooting his guns and hiking and things like that and i'd never really been exposed to anything like that before so it was all awesome and new to me. and we did it all together.

the one thing that i could never let go was the fact that he didnt know if he loved me. or if he ever would. or if he ever could. love was an emotion that was completely alien to him. we'd talked about it and he said he couldnt remember the last time he told his parents he loved them or the last time they told him they loved him. he told me that how he felt towards me was probably the closest thing to love he'd ever felt. considering i was his first serious girlfriend and the first girl he'd ever had sex with, i dont know if that's saying much. but it sure felt like love to me. and i told him that. still, for a year all i ever heard back from him was "i like you a lot" and "you're really cute."

he was 19 when i met him and 21 when we broke up. i was 17 when i met him and 19 when we broke up. yes, he's still young. yes, i am too. but it seems like after a year and a half something more would have developed (as far as emotions go). am i wrong?

he just sounds like a kid that didn't have much of a childhood

You're young, move on and have some fun, dont dwell on it, he didn't love you..why let it bother you? Go out and date some new guys, you'll soon forget about him, especially if you find the right one. Best thing to do is put it off as a learning experience and move on. Happy hunting :bigthumb:

Some people think they love when all they do is lve. It looks like love but, its not.

Young boys and girls want love and try hard to get it. IMO to have or get that "feeling" , you must know what pain feels like. After that who knows what could happen?

it's not that it bothers me so much, just that i dont quite understand why it worked out that way. i didnt get into the relationship for love, i got into it because i liked spending time with him and doing the things that we did. he was also an only child. that might explain some of it...

anyway, thanks for the input guys!

sorry to hear that, but yeah you'll forget about him once you see other people, i've been in the same situation before, but good luck!

Some people are just complete and total idiots. God put them here for our entertainment. You seem like a nice girl, if you want a guy who will love you and be completely nice all the time, find a nice guy. The down side is the really nice guys usually arent THAT much fun. Keep your head up kiddo, youve got a long time to have someone say they love you.

If he said it was over because you were drunk and threw a can of Pepsi, then he was just looking for an excuse. It's tough now, but move on.

yeah, life's too short to worry about goons who break up with you over pepsi.

He needs a life and you can find a better one :)

hehe, don't you hate when you get drunk and have those ideas? The last time I had one of those I sledded off of my roof. Got it on film, if anyone wants to host it.

Fred's right, that had to be just an excuse. There's more people out there... like me!
