Because you instigated the relationship, asked her to marry you, put a ring on her finger then suddenly developed clairvoyance. [/quote]

Yeah well…

Growing up…

If you are not called an asshole at least a couple of times you are probably doing it wrong. [/quote]

Nothing wrong with being an asshole,; the trick is to know when and why people are calling you one.

Most importantly, just because you’re an asshole doesn’t mean you’re in the wrong. [/quote]

I dunno, my take is, if someone calls you an asshole, I would check if you really are one.

If someone who only cares about him or herself calls you one because you actually care for yourself for once, chances are, you can dismiss it.

Yeah, feelings, complications, whatnot. [/quote]

Being able to call yourself an asshole is a rare trait. I have no problem facing up to my flaws. Most people become extremely hostile when you point out theirs, and that’s when you become an asshole. [/quote]

I dunno, in the end we are human.

You can call that assholish, but I reserve that for people who go out of their way to be a dick.

If getting what is owed to me is assholish I am a prick too.

But ultimately, I want what was promised, whether it is convenient right now or not.

In the end I think an asshole is someone who rolls over you, for no good reason, without any prior reason why.

But, who actually does that?

More people than you might think. You just need to see them coming.

I think a carefully cultivated air of lack of predictability may work wonders for your peace of mind Sir.

Edited: piece instead of peace. Not even Freudian.

If you mean I should be more impulsive, that’s landed the the OP in a type of quandary I don’t care to experience.

I think OE hit the nail on the head. You guys are getting trolled. Any minute now Captain dipshit is going to come back here and “clarify” the story a bit. She is 20K in debt, to her nursing school student loans and will be banking 50K starting when she graduates in 6 months. Also, she is a master manipulator in that she has a lot of charm and is so hot that almost any guy or really any person falls over backwards to do whatever they can for her.

Either way paulyp, just break it off and save both of you the inevitability of either suffering through eachothers miserable lives or having an either bigger breakup later. I mean this really has almost nothing to do with the actual situation at hand. It’s the classic cover up phenomena. Something sucks a little, I can deal with it now, or I can sweep it under the rug. When I look under the rug again in the future, it could still be the same, it could have vanished or it could be a giant fucking mess. Here is a clue. 90% of the times it’s a giant fucking mess. Real men deal with problems as they arise, minimising their potential negative effects. Cutting your losses etc… whatever you want to call it.

Also, please listen to me because I am a random person on the internet, don’t bother talking to your father, your uncle, your mom, any positive adult role model you had growing up. The internet amplifies the awesomeness of advice, making it twice as likley to be what you should do. And if you get conflicting advice, only the last one you read should be the one you follow.

Is it better to swallow your feelings and be miserable? I think not, but this is my dilemma. To make matters worse, we are engaged. I just am seeing into the future and do not see a happy existence. Not to mention financial stress, I am expected to pay for EVERYTHING wedding related, since she is about 20k in debt and her parents have no money. And before someone tells me to grow a pair, she is a master manipulator and is capable of almost anything. [/quote]

PP, you should definitely stay with this chick. She’s the love of your life.

You’ll never find one better*!

  • except for that cross-eyed beauty at the mcdonalds drive thru that can fit two baseball bats in her pussy at the same time. She’s a WAY better catch.
