I'm telling you, bro. I'm not even a big fan of theirs, but there is just something about their music and heartbreak that go hand in hand. Their tunes will tear your heart out and turn a grown man into mush, but will also help you get through some tough times in regards to having issues with the fairer sex.

I've been looking so long at these pictures of you
That I almost believe that they're real
I've been living so long with my pictures of you
That I almost believe that the pictures are
All I can feel

Remembering
You standing quiet in the rain
As I ran to your heart to be near
And we kissed as the sky fell in
Holding you close
How I always held close in your fear
Remembering
You running soft through the night
You were bigger and brighter and whiter than snow
And screamed at the make-believe
Screamed at the sky
And you finally found all your courage
To let it all go

Remembering
You fallen into my arms
Crying for the death of your heart
You were stone white
So delicate
Lost in the cold
You were always so lost in the dark
Remembering
You how you used to be
Slow drowned
You were angels
So much more than everything
Hold for the last time then slip away quietly
Open my eyes
But I never see anything

If only I'd thought of the right words
I could have held on to your heart
If only I'd thought of the right words
I wouldn't be breaking apart
All my pictures of you

Looking so long at these pictures of you
But I never hold on to your heart
Looking so long for the words to be true
But always just breaking apart
My pictures of you

There was nothing in the world
That I ever wanted more
Than to feel you deep in my heart
There was nothing in the world
That I ever wanted more
Than to never feel the breaking apart
All my pictures of you <!--ringtones and media links -->

Re: Relationship Guidance

Man, screw that sad, lost-love stuff. I played the hell out of Nine Inch Nails until I became mad and angry at her for ending it and the rest just fell into place. Obviously I'm not mad or angry anymore, but its a lot better than going around wondering what I could have done to keep her, etc.

Re: Relationship Guidance

I would die if I lived like I did in college lol I don't really drink much now, so my tolerance is horrible now. It was fun in college, but you can only do that for 3-4 years, I can't imagine living like that and having to go to work the next day lol

yea by time i was 21 it just wasn't that fun anymore i had a girl and was just happy doing our thing. plus the girl game was getting on my nerves.

Re: Relationship Guidance

I've been wanting to pose this question without starting a new thread, and this seems as good of an opportunity as I'm going to get since the thread is already getting slightly off track... lol:



Anyone ever call the "new girl" by the "old girl's" name?

I had a two-year relationship that ended almost three years ago. And it ended badly for me. I had a lot of trouble getting over the girl and getting past her, and it took me about a year and a half before I started hanging out with other girls and starting to get interested in girl again and stuff. Recently, I met this great, amazing girl that really likes me, and we're "dating" now (not to be confused with "this girl is my girlfriend). Well, sometimes when I think about stuff, I think about what I'd say to someone in a scenario, and sometimes I say a sentence in my head. Well, instead of saying the new girl's name in my head, sometimes I say my ex's name. I don't think it's some sort of subconscious thing because I've honestly put my ex behind me. I'm above her, and I'm moving on to something so much greater. However, it's like her name is etched in my head from thinking about it for the last five years. I was even talking with the new girl the other night and I was talking as if I was having a conversation with someone else, and I started to say the new girl's name, but it came out as the ex's name. I stopped before it was obvious, but then I got a little panicky and it took me a second and a half to think of the new girl's name... lol. The new girl is cool and understands that we've both been in other relationships, and she seems comfortable with it, but I still worry that she wouldn't take that well.


Anyone ever have this issue?

Re: Relationship Guidance

I did it once in middle school. I actually left a message on her answering machine (those things are Devils I swear) and called her by her friend's name before correcting myself. It wasn't soon after that she broke up with me.

But that was middle school, I think an adult would be more understanding; however, if it happens again she might begin to take issue with it.

I didn't tell you we're in seventh grade? lol

We're both 22, and she's been really cool so far about past relationships and all that. And she didn't notice me almost call her the wrong name, I don't think. I mean, I only got the first letter out, and it's a vowel, so she probably thought I was just stuttering or something... lol

Did it start out with, "hey, it's Tiger..."


I'd contribute more to this thread, but seeing as I'm 19, have only had 1 girlfriend, and currently have no prospects on the horizon, I have nothing more to contribute.

You should be "contributing" to as many as possible :wink:

Re: Relationship Guidance

Find another girl. Sorry I don't have more to add than that, but that's the only thing I've ever been able to do to get over a chick.

Ehh... I disagree. Maybe I've just seen too many success stories or watched too many chick flicks with my wife, but don't settle for anything less than what your heart desires.

OP, I could be wrong. This might be one of those great life lessons that you encounter, but if you both love each other, have enough commitment to try a long distance relationship. My wife and I had a LDR for a year and though it was hard at times, we made it work. I realize you're young but don't settle for anything less than what you want.

I don't want to fill your head with fairy tales and fantasy endings, but man, if you love the girl, don't give up.

Re: Relationship Guidance

Haha you guys lifted my spirits with these posts I must say....I know itll be easy to get laid and whatnot but thats just not the way I am. Like I said before, I have a ton of fun here and enjoy meeting new people, its just not the same.

I'm with you. "Go get laid," is easy to say. Not all guys are interested in just getting laid. I may get put on blast for saying this but there is more to life than getting laid. All it does is provide some satisfaction in the short-term. Been there, done that. I've regretted it, too. Like I said before... Follow your heart. Guys here might say otherwise, but you can never go wrong if you follow what your heart tells you. It sounds sappy but from my experience it's true. If she's the girl you love, then go get her. "Don't settle for the one you can live with, but wait for the one you can't live without." Great words and some of the best advice I've ever received and I'm glad I followed it.
