Didn't happen.
I had been mulling over the move to Ottawa for a long time and how I felt about the GF (I like her more than my inane ******** on this forum would indicate). So I sucked it up, applied for a college down in Ottawa, saved up the simoleans to pay for a cross country move and continued to work like a dog to save up for college and also a ring, yes the type of ring you present upon proposal, not the kind brown kind that Totes seems to have an endless fascination with.
Fast forward to this Friday I get off work early and I am cooking dinner for my girlfriend when I see her get off the bus with a giant piece of luggage, interested and figuring she will need help lugging it up the stairs to our top storey apartment I head down quick to help her. Half way up the stairs she says the much dreaded 'we need to talk', the last time she dropped that on me was the pregnancy scare so I knew something was coming. We got up into the apartment, exchanged some pleasantries and then she dropped the bombshell.
'I don't want you to move to Ottawa with me.'
I could go over the entire drama and the things said but in the end the important thing to note is that I am now single, I am looking for a new apartment, I got accepted to the school in Ottawa but will be staying put. The silver lining is that if she doesn't change her mind in the next 48 hours I can probably use the ring money to fly myself to Chicago and back.
