[QUOTE="The_Fan, post: 2404042, member: 11607"] A few years back I was seriously considering joining the army. I didn't see any real future in the path I was going on, so I decided that after the semester was over I'd enlist. Before that happened, however, I met a girl. We started to get serious. Although we are both still virgins, it was my first non-platonic relationship. Gave me hope for the future, and I changed my mind. Well, as these things go, the relationship turned sour. She had a lot of male friends, but it didn't bother me at all. I trusted her, but she didn't trust me. She turned out to be manipulative and possessive, trying to occupy every moment of my time while getting very jealous if I spent time with my female friends. She never outright forbade me to spend time with them, but made me feel really bad if I did. It was like she was in a near-constant depression and shoving me away at the same time as begging me to spend more time with her. Eventually we broke up, not with a bang but a whimper. I just plain didn't talk to her for a summer, and it wasn't until early this semester we finally worked it all out between us. Or so I thought. Lately I've been thinking a lot about her. I don't really know why, but for about a week she has occupied my dreams and thus had an influence on my waking hours too. I thought it was just that I was feeling sexually frustrated, but then last night during the middle of a game, a mutual friend drops a bomb on me: She got engaged last week. To one of her male friends I had no problem with when we were dating. Hell, from what little I saw of him I liked the guy. Last night I was on an emotional roulette wheel, with the ball bouncing around randomly from anger to sadness to happiness for her to regret and all over. By morning it seems to have settled on rage. I've been randomly screaming and attacking inanimate objects all morning. If you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go break stuff. [/QUOTE]
