    Well I won't fight her for it and it's in her name, I guess I'll just buy an e36 coupe like I was talking about :(

    Pretty crap time alright, it's weird because I heard on the radio the other day it's the most common time to break up, the fortnight before christmas!

    What your letting her keep the car. She must have been listening to the radio that day as well.

    You may not be aware, but every year I get so so so mad when it comes to putting up the xmas tree and of course the tangled lights. Keeping in tradition, I broke the tree, only bought it last year, cost over 80 yoyo. Hopefully a bit of bailer twine will set her right. :D

    Ya, all the bridge lights, outside lights etc are up, but I've been putting off the tree, have to bite the bullet I suppose...

    Heart goes out to you YBFocus :(

    The sad reality is in her mindset this isn't an overnight decision and has been thought out many weeks or months beforehand.

    9 years is a long time at our (?) age group. People change in between that time, for better or worse.

    Its a nasty rough feeling, I've been there. But I pulled myself out of that horrible rut and now it doesn't bother me.

    It will take time and a long stretch at that. I wouldn't be rushing anything atall if I were you. You will feel angry, depressed, anxious and a variety of other feelings. All part of the healing process.

    We're here for you man :)

    You know you just hit everything on the head right there as she said it!

    Jesus lads I don't know where to look. . . .


    I'm so so sorry man.
    Speaking from experience then I can tell you how I managed.
    Met an English girl years ago, really fell for her and all.
    Spent all the money I had getting insured just so I could drive her places we otherwise wouldn't have seen.
    Started saving up again until the beginning of summer when she asked me around to her place.
    Went around with the news that I was cutting my holiday much shorter just so I could spend the rest of the summer with her.
    She dumped me.
    Turned out, she was still banging her ex behind my back and only told me after I'd spent my savings booking a flight back just to spend time with her.
    I was gutted and lost all faith in women.
    Spent 3 of the next best months of my life being single and although it took me a while to get over the deception and hurt I ended up meeting my now wife.
    In a way I'm glad my ex was the cold hearted bitch she decided to be because if I hadn' have met her I wouldn't have made the decisions that made me meet my now wife.
    Chin up Noccy, it will hurt for a while but before you know it you are back on the saddle and you'll be with someone you actuallt deserve.
    And I don't mean to be disrespectful now, but what kind of person dumps you just before xmas? I mean wtf.

    Thanks Bear,

    I really thought that we were going so well but she wasn't happy.
    She's an honest straight girl I know for sure nothing wrong was going on, she just wasn't happy.
    It'll be a bad christmas alright because we lived in my house and the parents loved her, it'll be a quiet dinner.

    Now honestly no more, I shouldn't have opened my mouth :)
    Look at our soppy looking thread!

    Sorry to hear about this my friend :(

    Didn't you have the 530 for her to get to work in? I can tell you from experience, a new (fast) car does actually help to get over these things ;)

    (Yb) focus on yourself and doing things to make yourself happy and the pain will go away. Time heals all wounds and the scars remain to remind us of how much we've grown since.

    Just mention the car and we're golden :D
    It won't be pleasant no, but it won't be the worst xmas.
    Come to our place for xmas and you'll know what I mean :D
    Women are like cars, a fecking nightmare. You never know how they are going to react the day you need it and when they go wrong... the bloody go wrong.
    The best thing to do is stay around family and friends.
    What I wouldn't suggest, as stupid as it sounds, is go on the rebound.
    Doesn't fecking work at all.

    Sorry to hear that ybfocous what ****e news :-(
    I've been in your shoes a few times now and I'm so standing..

    I think dgt advice says it better than I could...

    Yep so its hers really, I'll miss it because I minded it like a child!

    I am going to get the e36 coupe I've been thinking over lately or build that track car. One or the other!

    Thanks MM :)

    I did surely, I even brought her to many's a motor meet! She hated that 406 :p I got over that though but it did take a while. It was a very rough summer (and partly the reason I almost ceased my 156 build/sold the 406) but things are looking up and I'm enjoying things as they are now :)

    Speaking of that 406, I had the joy of watching it drive infront of me earlier. Good times :cool:

    I once dated a girl who was part of a group of friends. Ended up with each of the 4 friends for varying amounts of time too :pac:

    Is it possible that the driver of that colossal thing didn't see the water? Was it dark at the time? No trucker will deliberately do that to a civilian.

    I drove pass same spot 30 mins later and I clearly sow all the water on that spot. Driver was just a dick.

    Fair play to you..... You'll hate her in a few days... Couple of weeks at the outside :)
    As you say though... It wasn't meant to be.

    Keep the chin up, some days will be hard. Look after yourself above all, cut contact with her as soon as possible.

    Jesus lads I don't know where to look. . . .

    Dude, I was there 5 months ago. Got my p45 out of blue after being with her 10 years.

    Get ready for a weak of pure misery, despair and ****. Get it out of system right of the start. Get a friend get a few drinks in you, cry it out if needed. Basically have a crash week, it will help to restart your head and get back on the feet faster.
    If she did it after such long relationship, then she was planing it for long time. You coming to her with flowers and all "let's try it again" will do more harm then help.
    The only thing you can do now, is to try to get your **** together. It just the matter of time how long will your "crash" lasts m8.

    Take it for its worth to you m8, but I was in the same boat very recently. 5 months later I know that it was most horrible thing that happened to me and now I am on of the happiest bunnies alive.
