It's a romantic idea, this aspie boyfriend thing, but I watched the show on tv a few times before I met you and understood the premise well enough then.

Heard last night that Drunky McDrunkenstein went to Vegas with friends a couple of weeks ago, didn't come back to the room 3 of 4 nights and on the one night she did drunkenly wet the bed (that she was sharing with the girl who related this story).

Oh that's the worst. Drunk bed wetters, I mean. I had someone I was sharing a bed with do that once. It was pretty awkward.

I mean I guess it could be worse and you could wake up in something like the shit scene with Spud which would have to be one of the most horrifying things ever.

oh I meant to say shit scene with Spud in Trainspotting, durr

I cannot condone breakup threads being hijacked by coprophiliacs.

D: CURTISSSS.

It's all a rich tapestry.

we all make horribly malformed "jokes" sometimes

sarahel, Friday, 10 September 2010 05:45 (thirteen years ago) link

I've got to keep up my reputation as the unfunniest funny person on ILX, see.

Christine Green Leafy Dragon Indigo, Friday, 10 September 2010 05:47 (thirteen years ago) link

oh that was actually about roxy's joke -

Have You Ever Shit Your Pants?

buzza, Friday, 10 September 2010 06:46 (thirteen years ago) link

And both of the things we were just talking about converge into one post.

Actually, someone else threatened to start a thread with that title, so I went ahead and did it for him.

when you say you are going through a transitional phase do you mean you are transitioning into a butthole because that's what it looks like to me.

peacocks, Thursday, 16 September 2010 14:32 (thirteen years ago) link

ask him if he's practicing teaching his butthole how to talk!

sarahel, Thursday, 16 September 2010 19:48 (thirteen years ago) link

ugh. i guess these things happen.

To paraphrase an ilxor's mother's ex-boyfriend, you can't make your heart turn into a face.

ex-husband rather, and if you have not read this thread, it may cheer you up a little. Read it when you feel like you want something of that sort:

^ kind of sad but mostly lol

markers, Thursday, 28 October 2010 01:20 (thirteen years ago) link

yeah, i was referencing that. will reread when i'm able to focus better. trying to find some good music to listen to but everything feels so cliche.

jeff, Thursday, 28 October 2010 01:26 (thirteen years ago) link

thought i could cheer myself up and took my dog for a long walk earlier today. it was too hot for her and i had to carry her the whole way. it was pretty sad and pathetic. got really choked up thinking about how i figured that i'd have to deal with her dying at some point but the reality now is that i'll be gone and she's just going to forget about me.

jeff, Thursday, 28 October 2010 01:30 (thirteen years ago) link

Jeff, it gets a he'll of a lot better. I know when I've recently broken up, I feel antisocial and my world shrinks. Really, you have to force yourself to interact with family and friends, exercise some good habits, and go through the motions of a person who is functional. In my limited life experience, I'd say that acting like normal is the best thing to do. And when you can, go somewhere new and do something fun on your own, as a reminder you can.

He'll -> hell

mh, Thursday, 28 October 2010 02:44 (thirteen years ago) link

I had a bit of a setback thinking about my most recent ex this morning and it made me feel shitty to think I still really miss him a lot. We had a very close friendship we lost thanks to turning it into a relationship and then breaking up - we're still friends and still in touch but it'll never be the same, and sometimes I get so sad.

Sunn O))) Sundae Smile (Trayce), Thursday, 28 October 2010 02:53 (thirteen years ago) link

yeah, went thru this about a month ago. keep strong, lean on good friends for support.

fakey (buzza), Thursday, 28 October 2010 02:56 (thirteen years ago) link

thanks dude. trayce, i feel you. for me, this is more about losing a best friend than just a girlfriend. i have other people to talk with but i don't think there is anyone who can truly comfort me. listening to promise ring and jimmy eat world now ffs.

jeff, Thursday, 28 October 2010 03:00 (thirteen years ago) link

sorry, that was meant to say "thanks dudes".

jeff, Thursday, 28 October 2010 03:01 (thirteen years ago) link

when there's such extant strength of feeling it never fails to bewilder and utterly sadden me that something can be torn so utterly asunder

acoleuthic, Thursday, 28 October 2010 03:03 (thirteen years ago) link

you can still be friends, but it takes time and distance, and the friendship is different. and no, there really isn't anyone who can truly comfort you - distract you, yes, but you have to work through it by yourself, which is almost the worst part, because you feel lonelier.
