Weirdest Ending of A Relationship?
Persona:
The weirdest end to a relationship I've bared witness to was my friend Wayne and this chick Aubrey after about 2 months of dating. The weird part was that they never officially ended, but just kind of stopped talking over a summer. Every so often, Wayne'll bring it up and say something along the lines of "I wonder how my girlfriend is doing...", and we'll giggle about it some. Wayne says if he finds out Aubrey doesn't have a boyfriend in a year or so, he's going to randomly ask her to marry him, citing their 10 year long "relationship".
Orbert:
Tommy, I've been following this strange and entertaining thread for the whole run, and no, no one had yet reposted that story. It's a good one, but I didn't repost it either because it wasn't about me, it was my sister.
I'm glad you liked it, though. It's 100% true, although I did wordsmith it for maximum effect.

I read that at first as a story about a dude who dumped his own sister. I guess that would be a weird end of a relationship. I'm glad it was not that story.

i told that story to a friend of mine and he pointed out that liking monster trucks really is one of those interests that just divides people. i mean, if he told me he really liked jazz and i didn't listen to a lot of jazz i'd probably just shrug and accept our differences, whereas if he told me he was really into monster trucks i'd probably react by thinking he was a ridiculous person and i'd totally misjudged him by thinking he might be cool. so we mulled on that a bit and concluded we were kind of close-minded and as soon as the opportunity presented itself we would go to a monster truck event, just to see what it was like and whether one or both of us would end up actually really liking it. unfortunately it hasn't happened yet but it's still on the to-do list last time i checked.
i have also only been in two serious relationships but they were both very long-term ones. however, i also get bored of people quickly and tend to function much better on my own so i don't really bother to take it past the sex. i used to get weirded out (and still do, sometimes) by people complaining about wanting a boyfriend because i need so much alone time to be happy that usually what i want is the opposite, for boys to leave me alone and understand that i'm not interested and can't give them the attention they need. obviously i understand everyone's personality is different and some people are more extroverted than others, but relationships are something i have never really cared much about and i keep forgetting not everyone is like me. i am 21.
edit for clarity - that last bit totally wasn't actually what i wanted to say at all. i should really get into the habit of proofreading my posts. i do care about relationships and the people i start them with. what i meant was that it's the number of relationships i've been in that i don't care about.
