well, title gave it away...

 

Just want to know how guys with g.i.g.s are different from women that go through the same thing.

 

Share your experiences and knowledge on: their reasoning leading to BU to the outcome after things are said and done during/after BU as well. when it comes to reconciliation, who's more likely to give it another shot?

Very interested in seeing some input in this thread. I only have fresh experiences that are still settling out, and it's mostly just confusion and frustration, so I'm just going to pop some corn and sit back.

 

Hang in there SCAIS, I know you're having a hard time.

Men are better G.I.G.S. dumpers.

 

Men are worse G.I.G.S. dumpees.

 

Women are better G.I.G.S. dumpees.

 

What do you mean by better? Better for who?

I think "better" means that you get over it and return to being your normal self faster.

 

I think gibson pretty much nailed it. Was talking to my co-worker in his early 40's yesterday. He said the misconception with women marrying guys in their late 30's/ early 40's (thinking that they're over GIGS) is that if you wait to long, your guy has about a 10 year shelf life before he hits that mid-life crisis (at about 50). Not sure if this is true. Any input?

I am enterested in reading some of these posts. I believe my ex had this. We have been together since he was 17 now hes 29. Hes never had sex (that I know of) with anyone else besides me before our break up. I love him a lot and part of me hopes he comes crawling back and part of me hopes that if he does come crawling back I can tell him to to **** off. Reasons I think he has gigs

 

  • could not give me a real reason why we broke up
  • didn't want to work on our relationship after being together for 12 years.
  • wanted to stay friends after break up / told me he wanted to still see our dogs
  • interested in girls that are the complete opposite of me/not compatible with
  • I was the only girl hes been with ever
  • a friend of his told me he thought he broke up with me so he would not cheat on me
  • completely changed. I don't even recognize who he is anymore.

My question is how long does this stage usually last? Is it different time amounts for each person. My favorite quote Ive read on here is "You may think the grass is greener on the other side, but if you just take time to water your own grass it will be just as green."

yeah but maybe the grass isnt greener as such but just "different grass" not to say the old grass is better or worse...

 

you could apply gigs syndrome to so many people, seems like a generalisation that has been made up. although i do get that a lot of people follow this pattern of behaviour and it could be labelled as gigs

 

there is no time limit on it, seems as though it can strike and last when ever however it likes.

 

tbh id say its more common amongst younger people especially 20-25. i have seen it happen to countless girls age 21 or turning 21
