I had a friend stop being friends with me about 2 years ago. We got into a stupid fight and the friend just straight up told me that he didn’t think we should be friends anymore. He wasn’t (isn’t?) exactly the brightest bulb on the street and all our mutual friends thought it was the dumbest thing ever. But 2 years later, we are no longer friends. So honesty is always an option. I mean, if you don’t really want to be friends with someone anymore, does it really matter if you temporarily hurt their feelings?
Houston guy – are you living with your girlfriend? If not, don’t follow her and have an amicable break-up. You’ve been with her for a year and it’s your first ever relationship: of course you think she’s the one. But she probably isn’t. You’re only 24. Stick with your currently awesome job and try long distance. If it works, great. If not, you know the familiar saying about a sea and fish.
I used to be the type of guy that would have conversations drag on for weeks before asking girls out and when I did, the dates never worked out. My dumb ass couldn’t, for the life of me, figure out why (now I realize it was because they lost interest). Then, for a variety of circumstances, a date that I was supposed to have within a week of matching with a girl kept getting postponed. But in the meantime, she and I kept texting and I kept getting more and more into her.
The date finally arrived, almost a month after we initially matched, and after weeks of incessant texting, only for us both to realize that we had absolutely zero chemistry. After that, something clicked and I realized that it was pointless wasting so much time talking to a person I’d never met and putting her on a pedestal. So I began to ask out girls as soon as the conversation started flowing. Literally, after the first 8-9 exchanged messages, I would find some clever way to ask her out for a drink. It worked every single time, I was averaging a date a week. About a month later, I met my current girlfriend.
Shooters shoot and you can’t win if you don’t shoot.
And I’m not going to argue any more about politics on here. I broke my own rule of not seriously discussing politics on PGP. I’ll just stick with DT “Wrong” memes and leave it at that.
Except he hasn’t done that. Any woman can go the Planned Parenthood down the street and get birth control. Not to mention you can go to your private gynecologist to get an IUD or birth control pills or just make sure the man you’re having sex with uses a condom.
It was a tongue-in-cheek comment that probably sounded better in my head, but half the girls I know here think that Trump is going to take their reproductive rights away and that all white straight men are racist and/or sexist so there is some truth to what I said.
Your story may have turned out that way if it took place in the Midwest, but here in San Francisco, if Dan said these things, the protagonist would’ve eaten them up and the two would’ve proceeded to cuck the night away.

“… because she had deleted her Facebook albums for fear of employers seeing how drunk she was in college.”
What employers? I thought mama was on funemployment.
That’s definitely not a good sign about the person you were dating.

Because complaining is what we do. The site is called PostGradPROBLEMS, not PostGradSolutions (I might actually copyright that).
Don’t dip your pen in the company ink.
That guy was a fucking asshole.

Spelling* so he’s actually 0-4. Way to live up to the stereotype that doctors are bad at writing.
“Your” is correct.
You voluntarily took public transportation in LA? I applaud your bravery.
I would get insane scaries if drunk me spent $1,400 at a club. I mean that’s like…an iPhone X with a case and extra charger.
Except if you’re an (overpaid) NFL player.

I’ll honor British vets except those that died 1776 when America kicked their asses.
