Well, okay the grandmother of a German girl I know, and it was actually said at the girl's wedding.

Apparently that and/or thinking Starship Troopers has subtext means you think you're Foucault or some shit.

Starship Troopers doesn't have a subtext? My mind is permanently blown. After 5 mins of that movie, I was thinking 'hmmm, this subtext is a bit in yer face, but hey I can get used to it'.

literally everyone has been helpful in different ways. thanks.
for the record: i'm 3-4 hours away by car/bus/train. perhaps that's not long distance to some but surely it's at least mid distance?
fwiw right now i can't even imagine breaking up with her. for one thing, she'd be devastated.
i like starship troopers a lot. she hasn't seen it but probably wouldn't like it.

this is pretty dumb. i live with my girlfriend and fantasize about having sex with practically every girl that's even just a little nice to me. but you control it. i managed to make it work in a long distance relationship, too. you're asking ilx to tell you to break up with your girlfriend. if, for whatever reason, you're not into it anymore, and you can't fathom anything that would change that, sure, go ahead break up with her. chances are you'll regret it in a couple weeks or months or something, you'd get over that unless she's the proverbial
one of course. there's nothing wrong with getting out of a relationship that you're just not into, when everything should be working. but on the other hand, if you're expecting this to work out so that you actually wind up with the girl that was hitting on you, good luck, but it probably won't happen.
that being said, there's been times that i've wanted to cheat just for the sake of seeing what it's like. that involves actively wishing that my relationship wasn't as solid as it is, so that i could justify doing it. what does that say about me?
