I just broke up with my girlfriend. Help.?
Hi. Me and my girlfriend met when we started in high school together. I didn't really notice her until one of my friends started chatting with her. He knew from the start that he wasn't going to break a deal with her, so he gave me the opportunity to try. We started chatting on Facebook and i didn't know if i was in the friendzone or not. She was flirting with other guys. But i assumed it was just in her nature. I guess she didn't have feelings for me at the time. But i continued talking to her, and she started getting closer and closer to me. A few weeks later and we started hanging out. A few weeks after that again we started experimenting etc. (she was my first serious girlfriend). During summer i invited her to my cabin by the sea, along with a few friends of mine. We finally had sex, and we did it a few times during the stay. On the final day i asked her if she wanted to be my girlfriend. She said no... And i was heartbroken and felt miserable. She had been holding me back for so long saying she didn't want to get her heart broken. And even after doing it together, she said no. I wanted to kill myself. She left the next day after a horrible night, and i stayed a few more days. When school started again i was still in love with her. And she pretended the night never happened it seemed. We started off where we left off before i asked her to be my girlfriend, and i was just confused. but a row weeks later we still got together. She finally said yes.
I was very much in love with her, and her feeling for me grew a bit week by week. We texted a lot and she pretty much took all my time. My friends grew further away from me, and it has stayed that way until a few weeks ago. Anyways, we eventually started getting into small arguments, and i was usually the cause. I cant really remember what they were about, but i remember telling my cousin that i doubted that we would last another year. Months went by, we went on a date every single month and school was getting worse. I felt that she consumed all my study time and she got angry with me when i tried to get some time for myself over larger periods of time (a few days) (we pretty much hang out every day when school wasn't too intense). We then started getting some trouble in bed because i was so exhausted all the time. She thought i found her ugly and non-sexy. It was not true. As summer came again school started getting better. I ended up reaching my goals for the semester and we finally had some more time on our hands. But then heat struck (i am pretty much and oven during summer). She liked to stay warm, and i went mad. It affected our sex life. Every time we had sex (often during the night) i started sweating like a pig. She didn't mind that much, but the worst part about it was that we tried to keep our sex life secret from her parents. That meant that i couldn't shower after each time, and my desire for sex almost disappeared. I preferred (still do during summer.. often) to masturbate at home. She got insecure and we started growing apart. The first year basically repeated once more, just that my desire for her as a girlfriend slipped away month by mont. Lack of time with friends, for school and for myself. I got fed up a few moths ago, but i didn't want to hurt her. we knew that the next six years would be apart and that was my excuse for dumping her. I said it to her, and she started crying. I still saw her as my best friend and felt sorry for her. We also had a few teddybears that we didn't know how to split. The teddybears kept us together and during the following moths i hated myself for mentioning them. Because i didn't want her as my girlfriend anymore, but she was still my best friend.
Well we went on another trip, this time to spain. The hotel was nice, the food was nice, she looked nice, but the experience was just ok. After the trip I went out to the cabin with my family and I had a really good time there. The plan was for me to return to my home town to stay with her over night and then return to the cabin with her. It would cost 300 NOK (50$). I asked her if there was a possibility that she could stay home by herself for one day or if she could come out one day early. She snapped because i pretty much had promised i'd visit her. I told her how i felt that the trip to spain was a small letdown, and that my felling for her were slowly fading. That i just wanted her as my best friend, which she really is. She got a migraine and i she clearly got that i wanted to break up with her. I said that i wanted to split up and that id stop by the next day to do it face to face and say goodbye etc.
Now i feel like a big douchebag, because i don't want to hurt her. I still care for her a lot, and I made her cry and get a migraine. And i made it obvious that i don't have as strong feelings for her as she has for me. Have i made a mistake? Does feeling sorry mean i still love her? Please help.

hi, me and my girlfriend have had sex regularly the past month now, until she went away for the holidays. then when she returned home we met up and hang out at her place the entire day. we ended up having sex about eight times. this was over a period of 10 hours i believe, and i am wondering if it is normal for a guy to lose the desire for sex even though he loves his girlfriend, he thinks she is gorgeous and attractive. that if he has had sex two times in 20 minutes that he is not ready to have sex once more but instead feels exhausted and tired.. all this whilst having an erection :/ i am confused and so is my girlfriend!
3 AnswersMen's Health10 years agoShould i send my computer for repair?
I have been experiencing some problems with my dell studio 1555 laptop lately!
Sometimes when i have several applications running at the same time, my computer gets really hot
I think there is a problem with the fan because if i keep the computer running while it is on my lap the entire thing has a bad habit of shutting down like if i had been holding the power button down for 5 seconds
About 50% of the time this happens my keyboard stops working
Shaking and cooling the laptop fixes this problem, but i guess you can understand my frustration
I have probably lost a day or two of work since January this year because all open applications closes without saving
Although the work is pure hobby like Photoshop I wonder if there is any solution to my problem
I have bought a Zalman laptop cooler but it is not too practical and doesn't fit in my backpack
the reason i ask this question now is because the computer has started shutting off while it has been standing on a flat table with a reasonable amount of space between the surface of the table and the laptop
I have no idea if the problem lies in the fan or the CPU but the HEAT is definitely the problem
