I'm literally minutes or hours away from that. If she will answer her goddamned phone, it's over.
Drinks too damned much, and I don't touch the stuff, makes for many annoying nights arguing with a drunk person.

Can't say I'm looking forward to it, but her and booze are not a happy thing, and it's making her fat, and angry all the time.

change the word to aloneness - loneliness can have a negative connotation and after the misery of a really shit relationship being alone can be one of the best things in the known universe

you just wait till you have kids - things get WAY more complicated

forge wrote:you just wait till you have kids - things get WAY more complicated

I'll probably never have kids, I'm not really interested, and I'm already 41. I'm not really looking forward to it because I know that she's going to quit in the next couple years, and I know I can't wait for that. Far too long of a wait.
It's possible this speeds things up and she quits sooner. literally her friends are all either still depending on their parents, or like me and sober, and becoming very successful. That's gotta make her wonder.
Anyway where's bOunce to tell me I'm a twat for talking about this shit online?

b0unce isn't in right now, would you like to leave a message or perhaps I can help in his place?

twat.

Joking aside, dear god, ditch the drunky lady, I had flashbacks reading your post. Nothing is as exciting as arguing with a drunk, completely illogical thinking bitch. And that's the bad kind of exciting.

Just broke up with her.

Done.

Damn? that's some fine soap opera stuff eh?

She's both hot and intelligent and she will be the first to tell you that. Here's just some of the things she is great at:

Bipolar reasoning

Blamestorming

Sharing herself with others

Microsoft Excel

Depression delegation

Multiple purse management

Sex deprivation

Microwave operations

Dirty looks

Bank account depletion

Excuse confirmation

Tantric crying

And so much more! Thanks for your interest and I can have her on your porch by noon.

I think were fucking the same chick man...but really though if your not happy and shes not happy, which her behavior probably shows then what favor are you doing either of you by staying. I stayed in a relationship for 4 years because i felt guilty and i thought i could make us both happy. i see now i just prolonged both of our unhappinesss when i should have been stronger and said enough is enough.We both are probably happier now and if shes not then shes an adult and needs to take responsibilty for her own life. Im loads happier and dont feel guilty for things i can not control.

I got couple of samplers to unload, particularly mpc 2500 and mpc 4000. Take your pick

is she bivolt?

ohhhh you know it

+1 again cause the one before this one.

tantric crying problem too.

Oh yeah, have I seen this one. 5 years in and I STILL don't know if I really want to be here. WTF? I'm probably just a puss.

Machinesworking- congratulations. The drink don't help.

BTW Beats would you consider Operator if I take postage in charge? But 25 pairs of shoes is the limit.

No it doesn't. I have a strange feeling with this that it's not completely over though. It's possible I don't hook up with another girl I'm thinking about settling down with for quite some time, and she's pretty close to the end of the drinking I think.... NOT holding my breath on that.

Maybe you and her should get some counseling in? If it's all her, a good counselor will be subtle enough not to let her know, but clue you in that you're the one that needs to do something about it if you want things to improve, and that could easily mean breaking up with her.
That will be $100 please!

I can get some pretty fucked up sounds out of Sampler, the problem is does your girlfriend have a mute button? is she compatible with a size 7 gag ball? with the recent innovations in federal law regarding torture I think I could get a good range of tones from her.

if I were to tell her to grab a midi cable does she know the difference between midi, SPDIF, RCA and phono??

how often does she need to be fed? any body odor issues? is she house broken?

anyway, I think my studio slave died on me, there's a stench coming from the closet where he liked to sleep, I need to look into that. time to replace some old gear.

then there's this old chesnut:

Dear Support

Eighteen months ago I upgraded to Girlfriend 1.0 from Drinking Mates 4.2 which I'd used for years without any trouble.

However, there are apparently conflicts between these two products and the only solution was to try and run Girlfriend 1.0 with the sound turned off.

To make matters worse, Girlfriend 1.0 is also incompatible with several other applications, such as Lads Night Out 3.1, Football 2 and Playboy 6.1.

Successive versions of Girlfriend proved no better. A shareware beta-programme, Party Girl 2.1 which I tried had many bugs and left a virus in my system, forcing me to shut down completely for several weeks.

Eventually I tried to run Girlfriend 1.2 and Girlfriend 1.0 at the same time, only to discover that when these two systems detected each other they caused severe damage to my hardware.

Sensing a way out, I then upgraded to Fiancée 1.0 only to discover that this product soon had to be upgraded (at great cost)to Wife 1.0, which I reluctantly agreed to because, whilst Wife 1.0 tends to use up all my available resources, it does come bundled with FreeSex Plus and Cleanhouse 2000.

Shortly after this upgrade however I then discovered that Wife 1.0 can be very unstable and costly to run. For example, any mistakes I made were automatically stored in Wife 1.0's memory and could not be deleted.

They then resurfaced months later when I had forgot about them. Wife 1.0 also has an automatic Diary Explorer and E-mail porn filter, and can, without warning, launch Photostrop and Whingezip!

These latter products have no help files and I have to try and guess what the problem is myself. Additional costly problems are that Wife 1.0 needs updating regularly, requiring Shoe Shop Browser for new attachments and also Hairstyle Express which needs to be reinstalled
every other week.

Wife 1.0 also spawns unwelcome child processes that also drains my resources. It also conflicted with some of the new games I wanted to try, stating that they are an illegal operation. When Wife 1.0 attaches itself to my Audi TT programme it often crashes or runs the system dry.

Wife 1.0 also has a rather annoying pop-up called Mother-in-Law, which can't be turned off.

Recently I've attempted to try Mistress 2000, but there could be problems, a friend has alerted me to the fact that if Wife 1.0 detects the presence of Mistress 2000 it tends to delete all my MS Money files before un-installing itself.

Pitch B,

It's an olddy but a goody!

nice one.

Roly

hey beats....i live in fremont.... we can meet up since we are so close. i will do an inspection and if all is well, sampler is yours!
