i don't understand womenFollow

i send this to a girl i foolishly believed i loved:
how've u been doin? i hope you're feeling better. i don't like seeing you so tired and stressed and me not being able to do anything about it. i wish i could hold you and comfort you. the last time i tried to touch you, you shied away. if not for that i would've held you at the park, i don't care if you're sick. try not to be overwhelmed by all the work. take some time to relax and put things in perspective. A goes before B goes before C. its not the end of the world, and you will find time to do it all. think of the solution, not the problem. what must be done shall be done, don't worry about how or when. worrying about the future too much makes you forget about the present. i believe in you, you should too. c u soon my sweet.



then she runs my heart over with a semi-truck. please explain, all flamers and trolls welcome. anger is better than this pain i feel.

Without knowing any more about her circumstances, her mind, and the way she feels about you, I couldn't possibly comment.

Thus the only useful advice I have for you is to capitalise your "I"s. It'll make you look more mature and grown up.

Smother her in butter and whip her at cars. Girls like that.

I'd recommend he switch to men, but gay guys don't like pussies either.

If she's an English major and read your paragraph exactly as you wrote it, no small wonder.

Clearly she can't stand the fact that you don't know even the most basic rudiments of punctuation, capitalization, spelling or sentence structure. Lern2Communicate!

Perhaps she wishes you'd write her a letter with an original thought and not a bunch of clichés?

It's important to realise that women aren't unique individuals with their own dreams and aspirations but rather a group of near identical drones. Once you understand one, you understand them all - lucky thing, too, or else we'd be unable to offer any good advice. In fact, all we'd be able to do would be to point out your obvious flaws.

Women are simple creatures really. They lie to you and tell you how they're different from the rest, how cool they are, and how all they are looking for is a stand-up guy. Then they sleep with one of your friends and tell you how it's not you, it's them. A few weeks later they start calling you again and tell you they made a mistake. Then proceed to stalk you after you tell them to go to hell, making late night phone calls, driving by the house to check on you, and sending 17 text messages in an hour late on a Tuesday night.

See? Simple.

The problem is that you're making it all about YOU.

"i don't like seeing you so tired and stressed and me not being able to do anything about it."

If she's tired and stressed, she doesn't want to hear your whiny *** making it all about how YOU don't like seeing it and YOU can't do anything. When a woman is stressed, she doesn't want to hear some man complaining about what they can and can't do.

"i wish i could hold you and comfort you. the last time i tried to touch you, you shied away. if not for that i would've held you at the park, i don't care if you're sick."

Now you're trying to guilt trip her. 'I'm trying so hard but you're pushing me away!' If she's not feeling well, the last thing she wants to hear is how YOU want to hold her. It looks like you don't care about her feelings; you're making it sound like you're the one who needs comforting. And saying you don't care if she's sick makes it sound like you don't care about her feelings or health - you just want to cuddle with her because it makes YOU feel good.

"try not to be overwhelmed by all the work. take some time to relax and put things in perspective. A goes before B goes before C. its not the end of the world, and you will find time to do it all. think of the solution, not the problem. what must be done shall be done, don't worry about how or when. worrying about the future too much makes you forget about the present."

This is very unsympathetic! All you're doing is repeating meaningless words, and in a tone that makes it sound like you're bossing her around, not offering suggestions! You might as well have said 'whatever; **** happens.'

So, the reason she didn't enjoy your message is because first you yapped about yourself, then you completely brushed away her feelings. Good job. If you're writing to someone who's having a tough time, put some kindness into it! Try something like this next time:

"How've you been doing? I hope you're feeling better. If there's anything I can do to help you, please let me know! I'm here for you if you need me, sick or not. I'm sure you'll overcome this soon!"

And by the way, if you had genuinely wished she would feel better soon, you wouldn't be here complaining about your feelings and how she upset you. Your message probably upset her more. You should apologize, be supportive of her, maybe buy her a present, and hope she forgets about this incident soon. Your goal seems to have been to show her you're a good person, not to actually make her feel better.

She doesn't like you, and she wanted to make it absolutely clear about it. Indeed, the letter actually sounds very creepy to a girl who has no feelings for the writer.

I suggest you give up and look for someone else.

That is correct.

A simple "Thinking of You" card &, perhaps, some flowers would have been a hell of a lot creepier & less pathetic than that.

You can act sweet without sounding desperate.

She was waiting on you to give her permission to run you over. It's right there in your message "Think of the solution..."

Now what's not to understand?

I get what you are saying but I can't help but be reminded by this exchange on the Simpsons:

"Ever since you started therapy, all you can do is talk about yourself. Well what about me, Marge?"
"I just left my first session and I haven't even opened my mouth yet."
"You see?! You see?! '*I* just left *MY* first session and *I* haven't opened *MY* mouth yet!'"

Oh well, due to my ineptitude with women, I remove myself from the game. The world can rejoice that I won't be breeding. Life is so much easier alone, less drama and stress. Thank you all for your insight though, its opened my eyes to all the mistakes I've made.
