[QUOTE="painted_klown, post: 6641147, member: 6785485"] OP, I have read through this entire thread and have come to the conclusion that a lot of the drama seems to be caused by the GF. You stated that she lived with you, but not that you two had dated. By the way your story reads, she left your place without wanting to really come out and say she was leaving, as if she wanted to avoid drama, or perhaps hurting your feelings. Maybe I am way off base here, but it appears that maybe you had romantic feelings for her in the past (and she realized it) and that is why the bitterness between you and her BF continues to this day. You admitted yourself that you have a harder time letting things go than the ouburst guy. Maybe he knows deep down that you liked the girl, and he "stole" (for lack of a better word) her away from you before you could cement your relationship with her. Perhaps that is why he doesn't try to (physically) fight you. These types of passionate feelings can run deep. I have seen many friendships completely dissolve (or become strained) because of a woman. From the sounds of it, you are all part of a larger circle of friends, so it makes it difficult to simply walk away from the situation entirely, that I get 100%. However, I do feel that you need to really "search your feelings" in regards to the GF (your former room mate) and why you may have the riff with her BF. If you still have feelings for her (and I suspect you do, from what you have written), that would explain why you have so much disdain for him. Yeah, the guy may very well be an idiot, but your negative opinion of him is (perhaps) exaserbated because you feel like "How could she have chosen this idiot over me?". I am not trying to say you are wrong for having feelings & emotions. I get it man, really, I do. Also, I am NOT trying to lecture you, or anything like that. I am sincerely trying to help. I have been in similar siutations before and I know that it can be very difficult to "get over it", especially if you're really young when it happens. Time heals all wounds, but you owe it to yourself to move forward with your life. You didn't mention if you currently have a GF, but if you do, she is the one that needs to fill your thougts. Not a long lost love. You and your relationship with her deserve beter than that. If you do not currently have a GF, then get yourself out there and find a new lady. You'll be happier for it, and it will help to dissipate your hard feelings for the disruptive BF. TL;DR - Search your feelings and move forward. Good luck, and happy gaming. :) [/QUOTE]
