She Keeps Listening To Her Lonely Friends

Dear Could Have Been,

I’m exhausted. After months of begging, pleading, compromising, bending over backwards, and over compensating, I’m officially done. It’s become abundantly clear that I’ll never be good enough for you … no correction; I’ll never be good enough for your friends.

I initially fell in love with you because I thought you were your own woman. But the more that you let your friends dictate your mood within our relationship, the more I realize that’s the furthest thing from the truth. It’s because of this unfortunate reality, that I think it’s time we went our separate ways.

……………… (sigh) …………. Damn, this sucks.

But I guess the only thing that’s left for me to say is goodbye. I’m sorry it didn’t work out.

Take care,

The One That Got Away

    she didn’t get away…if anything, she did you a favor by letting you see early on she was not the one for you because she is not her own woman but rather a woman of her friends.

    This is something women need to improve on, we often times look for our friends approval too much when we get in relationships. Its as if we are putting our men on a unnecessary pedistal just to impress our “friends”, why? Im sorry flyguy if this has happened to you as I am sure you are a stellar individual. I have learned to keep certain things about my relationship “private” and it has worked better. We deal with our problems between us not third parties and I hope more people do so.

    this is really true, i am a woman but i must admit that women can be very devious.. i mean a lot of women are very jealous especially when they see you have a good man on your side, or even a man at all. sometimes when the ‘friends’ dont approve of your man it could be because their jealous and dont want you to be happy because of their unhappiness. so @ onenmilgyrl… i totally agree that this is something woman need to work on.

    I have never been one to ask any female associates questions about my man. I have seen the drama letting other women in on your relationship can bring. If its something small Yea I will be willing to share with one trusted indiviual but beyond that I take care of my business. And Yes most women are quick to try & down grade your relationship. I’d rather quiz a really honest man about my man than a woman who 9 times outta ten is no more advanced about relationships than any1.

    So you do have a girlfriend.. LOL! Tell her to grow up & make her own decisions.. Intuition tells you all you need to know about your significant other. No need to ask folks to confirm what you should already know..

    I’m too old for that high school nonsense. If you can’t make up your own mind and are led around by the nose by your jealous “girlfriends” you don’t need me for anything.

    I disagree. Although I’m sure that there has probably been numerous instances where a “lonely friend” was putting her friends significant other down simply because of envy… You have to admit thats not always the case. I do have friends with significant others… There is no envy on my part… and I’m very much single! You see I guess the difference between me and those “lonely friends” described above is I’m a “REAL friend” before the single, lonely part even comes into play.

    OHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! hahahahaahahahahaha!

    How about, lets cut it out Fly Guy because MEN have this problem WAY more than females do. Yes, this is a problem in some circles. However, how many men get GOOD/HELPFUL advice from they boys???? **dramatic smirk** Female friends will make you insecure and nag your man to death– yes. The male version?? He’ll be evasive, unemotional, hit you with that *shrug* “I dont know” act.

    Mhm Mhm…

    And I hope this wasn’t for homegirl who you described in your why do I love you post (whatever it was called). If so, she’s a damn fool.
