Should I break up with my girlfriend? Am I being really selfish?

**nom de plume** · 02-07-2008, 01:41 PM

Obviously posted as an alias.

I don't have a lot in common with my girlfriend. We're opposites in a great many ways, I tend to be very passionate and aggressive and my job and activities and whatnot reflect this. She's very passive and doesn't have a strong passion for the outdoors or recreation or anything that I try and spend all of my free time doing. The thing is though, it's not that we're interested in different things, she's just a very quiet person by nature, doesn't really have any major passions or anything...

Today she asked me how I was doing and when I mentioned that I was tired and sore (I've been skiing a lot in the past month) she asked if it was worth it. The question kind of floored me as I never even quesiton whether it'll be worth it... a day in the mountains is where I feel like I'm me. When I'm stuck in town working or compulsively reading weather forecasts I'm bored and a completley different person.

Anyway, I don't see this relationship lasting long term. At the same time I've not got any other girl in mind or anything, and selfishly I realize that I definitely like the companionship and not sleeping alone and whatnot. I'm pretty certain that she feels more "in love" with me than I do with her (which is not to say I don't care quite a bit about her...) so I really don't know what to do.

Advise me mags.

Your fast for an old guy.

Ask her if its ok to just have sleep overs once in a while and move on.

**Tippster** · 02-07-2008, 01:51 PM

Pix needed.

**Steven S. Dallas** · 02-07-2008, 01:52 PM

It was nice of her to ask how you were doing.

**tex1230** · 02-07-2008, 01:52 PM

Post pics of said girlfriend, nude.
we need this info to advise you properly

(And my honest answer - if you need to ask a bunch of internet jerk-offs if you should dump your GF, the answer is that you're lucky she didn't dump you already.)

I think this is a completely personal decision that we can help guide you on, but when it comes down to it you are the only one that can make the right choice.

Personally, skiing is the most important thing to me, and most women (unless they are also way into skiing) will not understand this. Sure, not having a companion/cock garage is a sacrifice, but not skiing may be an even bigger one.

Last season I hardly skied at all cause of a fucking girl. When all was said and done I realized that I completely wasted a fucking season and that I was all depressed and shit cause of not skiing. Now I am skiing alot more, and pushing aside potential relationships as a result. Thats just my .02 though.

Only, you can decide.

You are going to do whatever the hell you want to independant of our suggestions. This post is really just a cry for attention as all of our posts are.

**stupendous man** · 02-07-2008, 02:02 PM

question: are you a) in a ski town? b) divorced with kids, or c) totally devoid of self confidence?

these are possible reasons to keep her around.

**My Pet Powder Goat** · 02-07-2008, 02:03 PM

give her the priority talk... tell her she will never be a number one priority, exp during ski season, and sumtimes not even a number 2 priority (who doesnt LUV beer after a powder day!)
if she stays, great. if she leaves.... continue skiing, drinking beer and jerking off

Well, I think you've answered your own question.

If it's not there, why force it?

And that goes for pretty much everything in life, except der pooper which of course needs some forcing.

**runethechamp** · 02-07-2008, 02:25 PM

What are her good qualities? What are the parts about her and her personality that make you want to be with her? Other than the fact that she agrees to sleep with you every now and then?

**MakersTeleMark** · 02-07-2008, 02:28 PM

Do it, before she goes and tells you how she really feels:

**hutash** · 02-07-2008, 02:30 PM

Pictures always help in these situations.

As long as you are not leading her just enjoy the ride, get some good ass out of it and move along when the time comes. The reason you date is to learn that everybody is different. Learn as much as you can, then move on to her sister.

COLD BLOODED!!!!

**montanaskier** · 02-07-2008, 02:35 PM

Makers- perhaps the funniest post I have ever seen. Helps that I know what that is, really fucking funny.

**lionelhutz** · 02-07-2008, 02:37 PM

Yea...you should. Once you know it's not going to work then just pull the trigger.
Oh and do it before valentines day- save some cash.
But don't do it on valentines day that's just cold

**mntlion** · 02-07-2008, 02:56 PM

I think that this is Raps other side. Aspen cougar not working out for ya?

**Tippster** · 02-07-2008, 02:57 PM

I'm sorry - I'm no longer a virgin. What do you mean?

**mrw** · 02-07-2008, 03:12 PM

From personal experience, I'd say she has got to go.

I now have a lovely lass who did not ski at all and is now hanging with me on most of my trips and gives me the room to go off and ski stuff she can not.

Best of all, we are thinking about hitting the road for a season and I am an old guy.

Go find a girl that shares you passions

opposites do attract, I was floored yesterday when my wife walked in from work and was excited about the WVU football recruiting class. she is actually getting sucked into the drama of D1 football. I love my wife, it took me a while to figure it out though.
