Hey guys, this is my first post here. I hope some of you can help me out. Just a warning, this may be a bit long. Here's a bit of backstory about myself and my situation.
First off, I have only been in 5 relationships in my life, and out of all those only 1 was real, where I felt I was in love with the person. Since then, maybe in a revelation, or maybe to get over her, I did a lot of research about love and came to the conclusion that love is overrated and fake for the most part. That it is just a bunch of biological and psychological irrational feelings. Since then, this was 5 years ago we broke up, I have only had 2 relationships which were short, not serious, and I knew I didnt like them that much either. So I gave up and have just been using 'intimate friends' to get what I need physically, and vowed not to ever let my emotions get involved with anyone because I believed it to be irrational and fake.
Well about 2 and a half years ago, I met someone at University and I must say, she changed my life around. I liked this person in an entirely different way. It didnt feel like some biological or psychological BS, it felt rational. And rationality = longterm. She was seeing a guy at the time we met, but things weren't going well, so I was always there for her. When they broke up, I still didnt really make my move on her and about a month or two later she started dating someone else and we stopped talking. I was heartbroken, but a year later, they broke up and she called me, we spoke for a bit, and I thought this time I'd finally get my chance to date her. But I dont know exactly what happened, but she ended up dating someone else for another year, I was heartbroken again, but they broke up a couple of months ago. And AGAIN, same deal, she msg'd me soon after and we started talking again.
Now the problem is, we actually got things in the open this time, and she told me how much she liked me since back then, and while she was dating those two guys (don't know if I entirely believe her), and I admitted that I liked her too and she said she could tell already. We went out on one date, and I was the happiest person on the planet, I knew I had her this time. She was such an incredible person and exuded true beauty, not just 'hotness', she was only about a 7 on the hotness scale. She really liked me, texted me a lot, I could tell she was really happy to be around me.
I had gone over to her place a couple of times to watch a movie, and the 2nd time, I don't know, but I feel like I pressured her into sex. Maybe I felt:
1. That I had to because I've liked her for 2 years, and didn't believe that she liked me for that long so I was 'owed it' or
2. Maybe I was scared I'd lose her like the last two times and had to get the sex in.
Either way, the next day she told me she really didn't like it and ever since then things have changed... she hadn't been texting me as much, and I felt a disconnect... I tried to overlook it, but things gradually got worse and worse... It's making me sad even as I write this...
We used to talk everyday on the phone, then it was reduced to just MSN, then reduced to 3 weeks of not talking at all. I didnt know what to think so last week I broke the silence and invited her out for a couple of drinks in a couple of days, she agreed, but when the day came, she didnt answer my texts or answer my calls. I invited her over the next day on msn and she refused. I confronted her about everything and she finally just said she's not attracted to me because of the sex. I thought it was because I pressured her into it, but no, she says it's because I'm not as thick as any of her exs (she seems to date mostly black guys). I am above average girth and a lot above average length so this made me really sad. She also said I had a premature ejaculation problem and she never wants to go through that again because she had an ex with the problem and he didn't care about her feelings during sex.
So all this has crushed my soul. I admit the sex wasn't good, but there was a lot I could do or buy to make future sessions better if I had an open partner. I told her I couldn't keep talking to her like this though, especially when she finds a new man (which will probably happen soon). We said bye to each other for the last time 5 days ago... fukk i'm gonna cry... um where was I?
Well I know I'm not getting over this girl. I know I have two options,
1. to keep living my life as I was, knowing love is BS just using my 'intimate friends' (if I'll even still have any after this), and stay alone
2. I am thinking of trying again in another year. i dont even want her right now. I will make improvements on myself until then.
I am leaning on option 2 because I do feel I have a chance. I know I will have improved a lot by then. I will have a job soon, will get a used car, be back in school. I will even try PE exercises to get a bit bigger (1-2 hours per day). Again, doing all this is improving myself, and not necessarily done FOR her. She has told me she's been very lucky when it comes to sexual partners, that they were all thick and could last for hours. I know men, and I'd imagine it would be hard to find yet ANOTHER guy like that, so hopefully she won't get into another relationship soon, or if she does, maybe she'd be willing to give me another shot in the future.
My plan in a year would be to surprise her with a call and invite her for coffee or something, I would pick her up in my car (another surprise) and maybe give her a gift. I'll tell her to call me the next day if she's interested in getting to know me again, but after that, I'll have to give up forever...
Would this work? Is it a good idea? Other suggestions? I'm trying not to be too clingy with her, and I am giving her space right now by cutting contact. I want everything to be fresh again in a year. If she's dating someone when I call next year, I'll just make my intentions known and that she's free to call me when/if they break up.
SORRY it's such a long read, but I mainly had to vent I guess.
