My girlfriend dumped me

[Entourage]

The same girlfriend who's father I asked his blessing for.

The first thing that popped in my mind was: "F*ck this shit, it's time to get myself straight."

I will be drinking tonight, a toast to us and those like us!

Whoa whoa whoa…what happened to the cool/confident guy that posted this earlier this morning:

“Focus on self-improvement, my friend, there are no third party software/tools that can replace the vision, and motivation of a leader, invest in your self! ”

That was you, right?

So drink up tonight, and tomorrow get up and get going. She did you a favor—trust me. I can’t help but quote my favorite cliché here: This too shall pass.

This will pass...and in the end your success as a whole/happy person will be the best revenge….

You should seriously consider writing a book! From what I have read so far, your writing skills are on par, they are all composed well and are easy and flowing to read, like an author. A book can be fastlane, I think you would be good at it, just something to consider!

LOL its all good bro, girls come and go, the one that you were meant to be with will come without you even trying to find her.

 

[Alana]

Thanks Mike!! Just remember Entourage, as my husband says: Men don't cry, they only leak out awesomeness.

Leak away for now...and then move on.....

 

[RBefort]

Congrats...she did you a favor. Might hurt for awhile, but F it. Plenty of things to achieve in the meantime.

Seriously, congrats lol. You're young, live your life and build your business.

You've got two choices. Wallow in it and feel sorry for yourself or accept it, move on, be fruitful and prosper. It already appears that you've chosen the latter. Keep growing. Keep learning. You'll find the one that "fits".

 

[healthstatus]

Keep her address so you can send her pics of your bank statements in a few years.

Sorry to hear this

kay sera sera (whatever will be will be)

 

[The-J]

Celebrate. If she dumped you, she was probably going to be a liability anyway.

 

[Milkanic]

Well, if it makes you feel any better, I have a mortgage with my ex. Trying to figure out how to pay the mortgage by myself is what brought me here in an indirect way.

Be grateful you escaped without a house/kid and learn from the experience.

LOL eagle!

Might take a while to get over, but remember time doesn't stop. The life timer is still running. Don't waste it thinking on "what if". See the big picture.

Congrats.

Sorry to hear that bro.

Good luck

 

[andyredsox]

A great girl will come along man!

Leak if you need to but you will soon realize it's another opportunity to make yourself better.

 

[howandwhy]

Take it in a positive way. You have now all the time to devote to your business. As healthstatus said, one day you have to show her(his Dad and the rest of world) that you have the potential and she was dumb enough to find that potential in you. It should motivate you like hell to go for. Also you did not loose much thing. The most important thing you are loosing everyday is "Time". Make the best use of it.

Girls are distractions, your young like me that extra time and energy should be put into your business.

 

[mohawkdcg]

You have to thanks your lucky stars. I say that because you are way too young to be getting hitched.

I also say that because what if you had married and then had an expensive divorce. Or even more painful would be having children involved with a divorce and you only get to visit them. You're lucky you found out she didn't really care for you before all that happened.

I recommend the following:

1) Don't get serious about marriage before you are at least 25.

2) Shoot for having a minimum of $5M cash on hand and a successful fastlane business first (but don't advertise that fact). It will be so much easier to accomplish while you are single.

3) Date a minimum of 100 ladies before choosing a fiance and enjoy the process....don't get in a rush. It takes some experience to know what you want. It's a numbers game and you don't know what you don't know until you get the numbers up. Don't let dating get in the way of the business.

4) Don't marry the fiance until you have been together at least 2 years. Some things about people can take that long to come out.

5) Test, test, test. You need to be always testing to see what the other person is all about, especially on the early dates. You are looking to rule out anyone that doesn't meet your requirements. As soon as you see a date is not for you then politely break it off. Don't string them out. If you don't have requirements then get them or else what you end up with will be a crap shoot.

That's my 2 cents on the subject. Good luck and enjoy your youth before marriage and children take most of your time away.

When I was younger and I lost a girl that I loved very much my own mother said to me: "Be happy you don't have kids with her". There is almost always something good to find in everything bad.

And, oh, for the future readers of this thread I can't resist to re-post this here:

When I was around your age I had a really bad break up, and I was devastated at the time.

Looking back now I'm glad it happened, its one of those experiences that really make you stronger. Not everyone gets to go through those tough life lessons at a young age, imagine having that happen to you when you are 40+ years old for the first time.

 

[Entourage]

Thanks for all the replies peeps. Wrote this when I was tipsy.

Anyway, I went out drinking with some buds last night, in a good mood, I'm happy, because I dodged a bullet. 110% business right now!

The moment she said she wanted to leave me, I simply showed her the door. Not worth weeping for. Still feels a little bit rough, I know this sounds stupid as I'm 18, but we had a lot of history, and we went through really tough times together, which grew a deep respect for her inside myself. Anyway, her loss, I would've given a kidney for her, glad to realize she would have never done the same!

Edit: first time I've ever had to handle rejection in life, and damn, it feels good!

 

[Determined2012]

She will be back... Breaking up is HARD to do.

The very day you make it big will be the day she realizes just how dumb and stupid she was.

Let this be a driving force for you to achieve and take whats yours.

There are hundreds of thousands if not millions of beautiful women out there for you.

All waiting to be swept away by the successful man that is in you.

Don't let one bitch take away the smile from your face.

She was never worth it in the first place.

 

[Skys]

That sucks. Good luck, and don't drunk-call her, or her parents.
Don't try to get her back. Just, move on. Maybe somebody you will get back with her (if you then still want to, because you will have an awesome life as soon as you jump back on the horse again), but this won't happen by drunk-calling, sending post cards and talking to her friends how much you miss her.

Big secret: Chase the money and resources, women will come secondhand. Always. It's a law of nature.

Even a bigger secret: Don't chase anything.

Well, if it makes you feel any better, I have a mortgage with my ex. Trying to figure out how to pay the mortgage by myself is what brought me here in an indirect way.

For what it's worth, trying to figure out how to pay for a mortgage between two people is still a pain in the a$$.

I'd never give up my wife and kids in the pursuit of freedom but I'd certainly recommend avoiding them prior to obtaining wealth if that's your goal.

Love is a special gift to be cherished, but it doesn't pay the bills very well.
