We are extremely close to shutting down this thread for the same reasons the PUA thread was shut down. While some of the time this thread contains actual discussion with people asking help and people giving nice advice, it often gets derailed by rubbish that should not be here. The moderation team will be trying to steer this thread in a different direction from now on.

Posts of the following nature are banned:
1) ANYTHING regarding PUA. If your post contains the words 'alpha' or 'beta' or anything of that sort please don't hit post.
2) Stupid brags. You can tell us about your nice success stories with someone, but posts such as 'lol 50 Tinder matches' are a no-no.
3) Any misogynistic bullshit, including discussion about rape culture.
4) One night stands and random sex. These are basically brags that invariably devolve into gender role discussions and misogynistic comments.

Last chance, guys. This thread is for dating advice and sharing dating stories. While gender roles, sociocultural norms, and our biological imperative to reproduce are all tangentially related, these subjects are not the main purpose of the thread. Please AVOID these discussions. If you want to discuss them at length, go to PMs or start a blog. If you disagree with someone's ideologies, state that you disagree with them and why they won't work from a dating standpoint and move on. We will not tolerate any lengthy derailments that aren't directly about dating.

You are probably not over her and and seeing her for so long in such an intimate way will do your ability to get over her no good. And concerning the date, like discussed in the last 3 pages, after 5 weeks you shouldn't try to be romantic with someone who might actually like you, as you are probably way too unstable for that right now.

Trip isn't until December, and I said 'date' in quotation marks cause we are just catching up for coffee after a random hookup, I wouldn't actually call it a date...probably should have clarified in OP.

Edit: I do understand that I shouldn't be getting serious with anyone right now, but I don't think sulking around and refusing to get to know new people is the best way to move on with life.


Best way to get over people is to get under someone else. Don't listen to Broetchenholer.


Because you, sir, are unequivocally versed in the ways of women and vagina. It is said that "IgnE", of the General Forum on TeamLiquid.net has slept with girls 1000x hotter than the hottest girl you have ever seen. He's lived his life in ways that even Charlie Sheen envies. The Most Interesting Man in the World passes HIM Dos Equis beers. All that IgnE mentions must be taken with utmost seriousness, as the Oracles of Delphi cannot refute his predictions. IgnE is from the ablative case of the Latin word "Ignis", translated "Fire", which he lights in the hearts of all women who meet his gaze. Therefore, disregard Broetchenholer, as he is clearly beta and has never seen female genitalia. Also he likes honey mustard, which only nerds like.

The best way to get over someone is to get over someone. Everyone is different. There is no one answer or way to get over someone.



Thanks for white knighting for all the betas in this thread. It's good you cleared that up for them.

Here's an unequivocally bad way to get over someone: blow off the girl you just met because the betas in this thread say you aren't ready for a relationship. Spend the next two months sexless and pining for the girl you spent the last 42 months with as she fucks another dude. Then go on a trip with her as "just a friend" while you secretly harbor hopes that she will realize she has made a terrible mistake, which won't happen.


O commander of the clit, O heretic to the hymen, take mercy upon this poor unfortunate soul. I meant no disrespect, as you have infinitely more experience than a simple beta such as I. However, you cannot come to a thread, claim that someone's view is illegitimate, and expect everyone will agree with you. You're probably in the same boat as most of these "betas"...why else would you come to a "Dating...How's your luck?" thread?

My original post was not about your opinion on the matter; I was addressing your final statement, commanding others to disregard the viewpoint of another poster.

Edit: I appreciate you using "unequivocally" in a salt-fueled attempt to mimic my opening. Love you baby.

Yes, why would an expert on a subject ever visit a thread on said subject? That does sound absurd.

I believe that was the least of my points, however I will elaborate:
Why would the baker teach the butcher to bake better pies than the baker himself could? He wouldn't, as that would increase competition, as well as eat into his time of -actually- making pies. I'm sure a sex god such as yourself must be much too busy with...well... sex to make posts on a dating thread, in the general forum of an...e-sports website. And when you're not busy having copious amounts of sex, you're giving sex advice to those bidding top dollar, am I right?

I believe your instant jump to defending yourself, from a one-line rhetorical question, truly uncovers the point I was trying to make.

A common fallacy.

I can say the same thing about your ad-hominem attacks slipped into your fustian white knight attempts. I'm just pointing out how absurd you are. You operate in a world outside commonsense.

Moreover, all of your posts are pretty moot to begin with. I can pronounce whatever I want and OP can do whatever he wants with my advice. No one needs you to point this out to them.

I agree with Basic. Everyone gets over their love dumping them in different ways. Just figure out what is best for you and go with it, either way it's gonna take time. I for one wouldn't go on this trip with this girl at all. It's going to be nothing but bad news bears for you and you are gonna hate every minute of it as it just gonna bring all those feelings back and make you realize it's gone forever.

Then you would agree that Broetchenholer's advice to avoid a girl when OP is clearly enjoying her company should be disregarded.

Not really sure if that post is directed at me or anyone else in this thread, but I don't intend to get back together with her (at least not for a long time, definitely not whilst on the trip), I haven't been sexless since we broke up and I did go on the date and it went pretty well... Still dunno what I want with this girl/what she wants but its her birthday tomorrow so I'll probably text her then and see what happens.

I didn't really advice on whether I should/shouldn't do these things cause I'd already made up my mind I was doing them, it was more how should I approach it, but thanks anyway...

Which was the real point of discussion, before the strawman popped his head in.

And yeah, gotta agree with this overall. You can tell yourself, and her, it's as "just friends", but if the hope or desire is there to go beyond that, then this is not a good move to make. You're gonna realize what you were hoping for was out of reach the whole time, and you're gonna hate the whole rest of the trip, and you're probably gonna kick yourself for being stupid enough to go in the first place. If you're truly distant enough from it all to harbor the notion of "just friends", you also don't want to risk ruining it by getting closer to it like this. This is a situation where you need to give yourself space and time to just do your own thing. But make sure you do something to occupy yourself, the more time you have to think, the more time you have to emotionally dismantle yourself. Just remember, you can always move on, and now is the perfect time to do that. Having literally just gone through something like this less than a week ago, I think I understand the right thing to do here.

And if you're set on going anyway, not the best idea but hey, you should probably set some sort of distant boundary and stick to it. I really don't know if there's a good way to go through with this, so I'll just leave it at 'you just shouldn't go'. It's like telling a fat kid to walk through a room full of pies, pies of all sorts. It's not a good idea to let him go in there, but if he's going no matter what, the best advice is for him to run straight through it, and out the opposite door. If that makes sense.

Ryder says he has already made up his mind. I can't tell if he harbors delusional hopes about it (the evidence that he would consider getting back together with her sometime in the future seems to suggest such) or if he's just locked in financially to this failboat voyage and doesn't want to forfeit the money he already spent on the trip.

Holy Jebus, why does everything always get blown out of proportion and context? I said 2 things, going on vacation with your ex shortly after breakup is bad. Everyone seems to agree, Ryder clarified though, that it's not going to be too soon, so maybe a little time helps.

Second thing was basically, don't try to start a relationship weeks after your girlfriend of years broke up with you. And no matter which names you call me for that, it's still true. This relationship is bound to fail. There are exceptions, but in general, it's just going to fail. If you are just looking for sex, because, being alpha and all, this is your way to close emotional traumas, yeah sure, go ahead, make sure your semen-dumpster knows that she is just a semen-dumpster and close that hole in your soul. If you are just looking for social interaction, of course go ahead and talk to peole, have a good time. But don't try to find your next relationship.

A friend of mine, who is the only guy I know more incompetent with women than I am, has just proudly told me he had his second girl. "Double digits, man!" Decided to let it slide and just give him a high five.

You are probably not over her and and seeing her for so long in such an intimate way will do your ability to get over her no good. And concerning the date, like discussed in the last 3 pages, after 5 weeks you shouldn't try to be romantic with someone who might actually like you, as you are probably way too unstable for that right now.

Trip isn't until December, and I said 'date' in quotation marks cause we are just catching up for coffee after a random hookup, I wouldn't actually call it a date...probably should have clarified in OP.

Edit: I do understand that I shouldn't be getting serious with anyone right now, but I don't think sulking around and refusing to get to know new people is the best way to move on with life.


Best way to get over people is to get under someone else. Don't listen to Broetchenholer.


Because you, sir, are unequivocally versed in the ways of women and vagina. It is said that "IgnE", of the General Forum on TeamLiquid.net has slept with girls 1000x hotter than the hottest girl you have ever seen. He's lived his life in ways that even Charlie Sheen envies. The Most Interesting Man in the World passes HIM Dos Equis beers. All that IgnE mentions must be taken with utmost seriousness, as the Oracles of Delphi cannot refute his predictions. IgnE is from the ablative case of the Latin word "Ignis", translated "Fire", which he lights in the hearts of all women who meet his gaze. Therefore, disregard Broetchenholer, as he is clearly beta and has never seen female genitalia. Also he likes honey mustard, which only nerds like.

The best way to get over someone is to get over someone. Everyone is different. There is no one answer or way to get over someone.



Thanks for white knighting for all the betas in this thread. It's good you cleared that up for them.

Here's an unequivocally bad way to get over someone: blow off the girl you just met because the betas in this thread say you aren't ready for a relationship. Spend the next two months sexless and pining for the girl you spent the last 42 months with as she fucks another dude. Then go on a trip with her as "just a friend" while you secretly harbor hopes that she will realize she has made a terrible mistake, which won't happen.


This guy is bang on the money.

Good for him. And good friend for not ruining his moment... However, at some point you should tell him what double digits actually means

The beta talk is completely dumb, but going on vacation with your ex is even dumber.

Going on vacation with the new girl or someone else seems not to be an option (I don't know if you have paid for both trips and are in the position to choose your +1)?

My dating luck has been quite shitty for the past 10 months.

One particular lady told me she wanted to get to know me after I told her I liked her. We texted each other for some time but nothing came out of it.

Kill em all!

Currently in a fucked up situation (i'll try to keep it relatively concise)

First month of college, found a girl who i liked so we started hooking up. I wanted it to be exclusive, she didn't, so i compromised and said "as long as it isn't another football player..." 3 days later, she hooks up with some random dude (and others during subsequent weekends) and i accidentally run into her at a party where she was with him.

Anyhow, I obviously wasn't very happy with my situation (even though I agreed it was okay), and her roommate was going through similar shit with a guy. We ended up getting really close because we could talk to each other about more or less, everything... then we became really close and we realized we like each other and have hooked up a few times. We've decided to stop hooking up for the time being until my situation is at least partially resolved.

Only two or three other people know of my thing with the roommate, while no one else seems to have any idea. I've decided that I'm ending it with the first girl because i've basically been a booty call, and i don't really care for that. Especially after how well I treated her. Plus, the longer I prolong this artificial thing with girl #1, the longer I can't do much with girl #2, the one I care about.

Ironically, as soon as I started showing waning interest in girl #1, she starts texting me first, wanting to hang out and stuff. Couldn't see that one coming! Not looking forward to this talk.

Moral of the story: fall for the right roommate, and don't fall for anyone within the first 2 months of college.
watch the wall collide with my fist, mostly over problems that i know i should fix
