manning the fuck up
does not mean you emotionally close yourself off to the possibility of having a great relationship with someone else. it means putting your hand up and saying yes i fucked up here but i can learn from that, shit happens and you can move on to have a fulfilling relationships with the rest of the human race.
What you give out you tend to get back and you can learn to trust and recognise when someone is not abusing you or likely to.

Easier said than done tho.
I totally agree with what you say here. I agree I did fuck up with that one. But I just feel that my own emotions and feelings for this girl was the main factor of keeping me in that disastrous situation. So its now a case of, Dont get into something you cant get out of. Seriously the time i did try to leave her, I felt physically ill. I couldnt eat, couldnt sleep. The stress was unbelievable. I actually imagined her being really upset at the fact I was gone, and the fact that Id caused her more pain. Sounds totally stupid and unbelievable. But I only felt better by going back there.

Trust me, Id love nothing more than to be in a loving relationship again with Miss Right. Those I have had strong feelings for havnt felt the same way. And relationships ive had since usually last about 6 months before it runs dry - for me.

What about the girl with the kid?

Yeah I loved her..
But I wasnt so emotionally entangled and hooked to her as I was this girl. Ie I was able to leave without spending a week without food or sleep.

Judging by his previous performance on QOTW
I'd say she never existed. Well, she probably did exist until someone called him out on his own mistakes. Then it was all a lie, a big fat lie, done purely to expose your own shortcomings and blinkered attitudes! Yes! I win!

Man, maybe it's the booze, but this Miggyman chap really makes me feel an affinity with those folk on /talk.
