I don't think you can really class 1 to 4 weeks as a relationshit..
But anyway..

For me the longest i've seen someone is 1 - 4 weeks!
I'm just a very difficult person to get along with :(

it is long. I know a couple that have been going out for eight years and they are 23 i think that is ages and ages specially when you are that young.

Kinna
07-Apr-03, 05:38pm
I was with my partner for 6.5 years. I met him when i was 15 years. We broke up nearly 1.5 years ago. We still talk & are good friends. But their are still too many deep emotions to get over , especially since neither of us have found anyone to fill the void in our hearts.

I learnt that there is no point in being in r'ships this long unless you are willing to make some sort of commitment cause most of us stay in for a long time because you become comfortable & your best friends then lovers more.

07-Apr-03, 05:52pm
mine was 1 year and 2 months, but he was from the country so we only saw each other like once a week anyway. There was a time i didnt even see him at all for a whole month.

We are best mates now:)

Same as you littleblonde...except mine went for 3 years.. and we are best buddies to this day... just over 2 years since we broke up.

He's leaving for 10 months in just under 2 weeks.

I didn't see my ex for at least 7 months after we broke up.

Started seeing each other as friends. It took a long time for me to 'seriously' get over it.

We are really close now and I just adore his girlfriend. Plan on hanging out with her quite a bit when he is overseas.

The funny thing about the entire situation is...that her ex boyfriend which she also dated for 3 years hangs out with all of us.

So you have me and her and both our ex's (of which we had 3 year relationships with) and her ex's new girlfriend.

My ex had been my best friend for 3 years. I was always going to (eventually) try and see him as a mate.

Of course it was hard in the beginning, like really hard for me and when I first saw him out with other women it crushed me...but I got over it.

I think it's great that we are still friends and that I get along so well with his gf. :)

and the interesting thing is that you all are fantastic ppl, so its interesting proof that even really really great ppl sometimes just don't work together in a relationship. its great how our friend group can grow to have ex's, and then their new significant others and every lives in perfect harmony and loves spending time with each other.

Hate to burst your bubble but I think I might just win this one. I was with my ex-husband for a total of 18 years - 11 of them married. Of course that makes me about 120 years old!:-0 I try not to see our time together as totally wasted as we do have 2 great kids. I should have left the relationship a long time before I did but it is harder to do when children are involved.

I think the thing I learnt most about relationships after my failed marriage is that communication is absolutely essential and also compromise.

Good luck to all of you in your current and future relationships. There are no guarantees in this life but the things that are most worthwhile are the things that you put a lot of work into.

haha, i'm nice, ask chemicalkitten :blush: :)

but seriously, thats a pretty fucked up way to end a relationship. despite how my online persona comes across, i'm too nice to a girl when it comes to relationships and as such I usually get used for it, or taken for granted. that girl usually then goes out with a few other guys before coming back to me with a "i shouldnt have broken up with u blahblahblah" but sorry, once someone fucks me up they never get that respect back again. i fall too hard to quick and yeh, girls can tell that and once they do, ya screwed.

longest i've been out with someone was 2 months on, two weeks off and then 2 months on again. i wouldnt say i have had a relationship with anyone, as that sort of time isnt something u had become really close to someone in and as such is not a "i love u" type deal. i have a problem with falling into lust.

la_freak: question how can be be best friends with ur ex, isnt wierd or dont u guys get jealous id the other is seeing some else or are u guys over that???

It took a lot of effort to start off with, but it was well worth it. I am friends with all of the people I have seriously dated for a long period of time (bar one), and I am not talking about week/month long relationships.

I don't get jealous of him, nor he of me dating other people. We know each other so well :lol: we help each other through stuff and we ear bash each other to our hearts content...

We still, however, three years later get mistaken as a couple as we are so comfortable around each other, even though both of us are well and truly over it.

Unless they do something terrible, if you liked them enough to date them, I don't think they are worth losing as a friend.

without sounding totally corny--> im not too good with the whole relationship thing, admittedly im a bit niave and end up getting totally screwed over a lot of the times.

dunno tho, ive got my mates and i luv them all to death so sometimes i figure its just easier keeping it that way.

dont get me wrong tho--> if something right came my way i sure as hell not gonna back away from it, just a bit to wary for my own good.

What an even mix we have here - some happily in a relationship, some happily single, some unhappy in both situations.Im glad to see there are some threads in the Gen forum which dont get totally derailed by fuckwits, you guys are doing nicely (Except for BlueSteel and Bella - can you guys just hurry up and screw - the sexual tension is making my computer twitch:p )...I will have my 2 year anno on the 20th of this month, and amazingly she is still my best friend as well as my partner:blush: ...Goes to show you can maintain a relationship at such a young age - IF you find the right person...


Mellogs - LittleBlondie is right - people dont really change, and if your dude is gonna screw around on you, hes not worth worrying about (guys are pricks DUH!!)...If anything - this thread should give you some faith rather than making you feel desperate...There are so many of us who have posted who are in happy relationships and maintaining them for a decent amount of time(more than those who posted and are disgruntled - AMAZINGLY) Im sure that if so many of us can do it - eventually you'll find someone that will own your heart (without breaking it) as well...Stay up chicky;) ...

unfortunately this was a really long relationship, and he lied for so long and i feel like such a dumb fuck for not realising it. the most depressing part is that pricks always get away with it.

Yeah - I know how it feels man - it sucks to be deceived for so long by someone..But just think of it like its not because your stupid, its because you obviously didnt know the "REAL" him at all..And again thats not because you never made the effort to get to know everything about him (not to generalise - but chicks usually do, espesh if they love you) because I daresay you did, but he has obviously gone to the effort to hide/disguise who he really is on the inside, and like I said - guys dont generally change, so any relationships he has in future (at least with anyone unfortunate enough to love him) will turn to crap, once the chick eventually finds out who he really is...TRUST ME - guys like that invariably end up hollow,empty,lonely people...He didnt get away with it..You cant escape who you are...;)

No need to get all knarky on me. Christ, if you knew me at all on these forums, you'd know I am never serious. I was messing around with you, just giving back what you're dishing out.

Fair enuff Bella - Point is that I dont really know you (note how long Ive been registered and the amount of posts Ive made), and I know that when I had some little tete-a-tetes with the pezman over in Brisbane forums - I was quite harshly warned about "personal attacks" on people and what not (quite unfair of the mods there)...So Im the last person to complain about having a shit stir...But the thing you have going with him is just getting to be old, and not funny anymore...As you have obviously read, the state of these forums is giong down the toilet, and it doesnt help matters with you two constantly bitching at each other (which takes the focus off the thread topic) all the time (and generally its not funny,its just lame and pointless) because what starts out as amusing, steadily gets annoying when it is constant...Take a leaf out of Sofu's book (I cant beleive I said that!) and make some sharp witty comments that go to the bone evry now and then - rather than constant burns...This will not only be more satisfying for you, but will be more amusing for the rest of us (not to mention that I think everything you say is turning Mr Clay on, even if its not doing anything for you;) - and you dont want that do you???...



Now back to the relationship topic - any takers???
