Ray Peterson,I agree with you about taking the dose of The Burbs.Whenever I put The Burbs in,it always makes me feel better!So did you watch The Burbs?I know when I'm upset I imagine being Hans,in a thunder storm,beating a bulky moist Hefty bag with a stick! :D <center><hr width="100%"/></center></blockquote></span>

I have to admit, I DO feel a little better today. The mixture of talking to my friends and family, listening to Huey Lewis, writing a little poem, your nice words and of course watching The Burbs helped so far.

RP you say you two are going your seperate ways after Feb. so I would urge you to ask yourself,
what do I have to lose by telling her how I feel?
Her having a new boyfriend does not necessarily mean game over...remember, you must dig through a lot of dirt before finding the diamond!<center><hr width="100%"/></center></blockquote></span>

To my surprise that's what a lot of people say. My dad says, he had a relationship when he met my mom, so did she. Nonetheless they came together and married. The same story goes with my aunt and uncle and with my cousin and her boyfriend.

But I believe there must have been wrong for a long time with the relationships they had. So they were ready for a new partner.

In my case, she has a brand NEW boyfriend, so I guess there's still the magic of the new relationship, you know?

Still, after February I have nothing to lose and I will let her know how I'm feeling at the end of February. Nonetheless, as a matter of self-protection, I will not expext too much from our final lunch.
 
Good plan, Ray.....forget all this polite crap... TELL HER HOW YOU FEEL, HERR PETERSON!
 
Those people that say they'll never fall in love again. It just happens. When you're least expecting it too. You can shut yourself off forever. Not look for anyone as you don't want to be hurt again. But you're not made of stone. And just becoming an island out of reach from hurt and upset isn't living, it's existing. I don't believe in much, but I do believe in fate. Maybe something doesn't happen for a reason. Maybe down the line something a million times better is waiting? I understand and empathise how you feel. Sick to the stomach, can't stop dwelling, nothing brings much pleasure. It's a kind of grieving process. Grieving loss. And all you remember are the great times. Dreams can kick you in the ass too. Dreaming everything is cool, then you wake up.. But is she totally lost? Has she said something about having a boyfriend to make you jealous? to spur you into action? If she likes this guy so much, why has she spent so much time with you? She clearly likes you and your company.
 
I think your right Art.I think Ray Peterson should go for it!Hopefully that's what RayP did. :D
 
First of all, thanks Art for your nice words and welcome back to the board, I hope you'll be here more often then in the last few months.

I believe she is lost and quite frankly I don't want to fight for a relationship which we will never have.

Nonetheless I'll fight for staying friends and not losing her. She means too much for me for just letting her go. I want to be there for her whenever she needs someone. And I want her to be happy. If she's happy with the other guy I'll have to learn that this is the way it's supposed to be.
 
Good man Ray Peterson. Maybe you two will end up like Jerry and Elaine on Sienfeld...haha

That's all me!

Now here's what happened today: In order to do her a favour I asked her a couple of days ago if she wanted to accompany me to the upcoming Tina Turner concert. She replied she'd like to. So we agreed to go there together.

Please believe me when I tell you, I asked her without any ulterior motives. I just thought she'd like it and as I said I want her to feel good and have a good time, so I thought this might be appropriate. Of course I also like her company but this is not meant to pinch this guy's girlfriend. I accepted that fact now that I can not and will not have a relationship with this woman. That's life. It happened before and it might happen again. Not just to me but to millions of people all around the world.

Today she told me that her boyfriend does not like the fact that we'll be going there together. And who can blame him?

So what happened? I suddenly had a bad conscience towards her boyfriend!

Because I imagined how I would feel in his situation. My beautiful and on all hands admired girlfriend (she attracts men like a magnet) is going to an event with another guy. It would drive me mad, quite frankly.

Nonetheless she convinced him that there are no ulterior motives and that it's just meant to have two hours of fun.

Well, the fact that I felt kind of sorry for her boyfriend and that in the same instant I'm glad to hear that she's happy with him shows me that I'm over it. It happened quite fast. Maybe it's some kind of protection from the soul/mind. But yes, the love I felt for her is now making way for deep feelings of friendship and fellowship.
 
That's cool of you Ray P.Your a good person with a big heart. :D
 
So last thursday we went to the Tina Turner concert and it was awesome! This 69 years old lady rocked the house like no other women in this whole world. It was fantastic, sensational, words just can't describe it.

If I had only 50% of her power when I'm 69, I might still be the healthiest men of Germany.

She stills look wonderful, at least 20 years younger. And she still has legs which any girl in her mid-twenties would like to have.

Her voice hasn't changed at all. Still strong and powerful. Her stage show was perfect as well with all the choreography and the stage setting (firworks, lasershow, huge screen showing pics of her past). In addition her band is the same which she already had on her "last" concert in Wembley back in 2000.

And what made this evening even better was the fact that I was accompanied by my colleague which I've been talking about. We had a great time and I really believe we're on good terms. She's the perfect girl and nothing can change my opinion about that. All that I can do is hope that we don't lose sight of each other.
