Goddamn The World, I Fell In Love On Lit and It Sucks

[Guest]

I can't take it at times, but I've fallen in love with someone I met on Lit.

She told me she loved me before we even met and I didn't believe her. How could I? What did she know that I didn't?

We met and now I'm in love and she's in love and our spouses are fucked when they find out (and they will, it's inevitable). I'd like to blame Lit, but it's very obvious that I should thank Lit. for bringing some level of happiness into my life.

No, I'll never shout her name on these pages but I really did have to get it off my chest.

funny how something shiny and new looks better than old reliable. It's lust...you can get over it if you want to.

"Not at the moment."

(Name that film and I'll be undyingly impressed.)

If I impress you, will you show me that pole?

Oh, what the hell. This was a good thread to hijack.

A famous Pole - Mr. Copernicus.

...and another, Marie Curie

Happy?

used car salesmen live on that thought alone. if not for that part of human nature, the car salesmen, grill salesmen, females, would all be out of business.

Not happy.

I... oh hell. I give up.

Falling in love on lit

has a pretty extraordinary rate of failure.

I am not being skeptical, but we get so used to being "with" someone in this community.

Then reality strikes.

He is 2000 miles away.

She is with someone else.

He has personal issues.

She has personal issues.


Or whatever.....there are seldom lasting long term relatinships that start here.

IMHO.

I know people will chime in and tell me their relatinship is good, and I believe them, but look at the numbers.

 

[deliciously_naughty]

flings from lit can be fun in the short term

friendships can work (hi violette!!!!)

but lt relationships...don't fool yourself...he/she only looks good in part b/c you don't have to deal with them every day with that little thing that irritates you beyond belief about your sig other, etc

Amen, sista.

Work out whatever shit in your marriage is driving you to look outside. If you give it your best effort and it's still not working, then divorce and go chase Ms. New.

If you don't do this, you will end up in EXACTLY the same situation down the road, with Ms. New playing the part of your wife and a Ms. Newer tempting you away.

WnW - didn't 10 Foot Pole break up?

 

[WaxNWane]

Not happy.

What!? Copernicus rocked the hizouse, yo. It's because he was the brainy type, isn't it?

 

[ChefChip]

on the other side of the coin the advantage to falling for someone on lit you are really interested in their mind, since you don't see them, at least not right away. I find in real life that I chase after the pretty ones and only later find out that they are smart. on lit I talk to all the smart chicks and then I realize how pretty they really are without ever seeing them in real life.

Distance isn't a problem. The sex was spectacular but not the point. I just want to be with her and SEE if it can work out.

If it fails, then at least I can say that we tried.

I recently went to a relationship seminar....
the speaker had a really great quote

the grass is always greener on the other side..
but sooner or later it needs mowing.

I think you really have to weigh things up
the fors and againsts.... Good Luck

If it fails then you've ruined 4 lives for no good reason, yours hers and your respective spouses.

and if it works, you're still commiting adultery...get a divorce if it's taht important...but be damn sure she's willing too.

I love obscure musical references. It's all about street cred.

I think they're still together, but the old lead singer took off.

not a bad point. there is no harm in trying except the horrible emotional scar if one of you still is in love without the other responding. it's tricky but no less dangerous than just meeting someone at the bar, nver know if it works out until you try.
