Albert555 Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 So... A girlfriend of about 4 months broke up with me about a month ago. We're both in law school and she said that she didn't have time to be in a relationship right now. And wanted to focus on school. Which, believe me, i get, law school is hard and there's not much time for anything else. Anyway, a buddy of mine just spoke to me today and gave me some info I don't know how to feel about. He was talking to her about mine and my ex's relationships and asked if she would ever want to get back with me. I didn't ask him to do this, but I do talk to him about the situation so maybe he felt compelled to do so. Anyway, she, I guess, told him that she didn't really think she would ever want to get back with me. She said a major reason was that I didn't have an ambition to make a lot of money in my career. Which, she is right, I mean I want to be successful, but I am looking to work in the government b/c I value my time more than money. I don't know why she wouldn't be upfront about that, maybe it is something I could have explained to her. But, I guess, this is more for the girls out there; is that a quality you look for in guys? I mean, by no means do I slack off, I work hard in school and have had several gov't internships, which hopefully will lead to a gov't job. I guess it feels ****ty to be judged like that on my life choices; I really didn't think she would have an opinion like that. Thanks...
Salvatore85 Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 Thank god you got out when you did. She is going to make some poor sap miserable with her materialism. 5
reddragon588 Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 Wow really? She broke up with you because you have a passion and are ambitious enough to pursue it? She seems like a shallow person. I for one congratulate you for knowing what you want to do.
crederer Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 haha I had an ex say she fully expects each of us to make 300+grand a year by our 40's. She works in a retail store selling clothes. Has masters but in a field that doesn't get you anywhere with a masters. Not there's anything wrong with that, but have some realistic expectations here...... That comment really rubbed me the wrong way. She later basically suggested anyone that doesn't make that much lacks ambition. What? K so practically every single person on earth has no ambition? Do you realize how few people make that kind of money?

Be glad it was only a 4 months old relationship Rejoice you found out the truth she broke up with you and even better you found our her true character. Continue to focus on your dream/goal and during this journey you will meet another person who fully supports you whatever your goal is. 1
Author Albert555 Posted October 16, 2013 Author Posted October 16, 2013 I appreciate all the advice and know, obviously, it is a good thing to find out she holds those life opinions before I got even more attached. It's just hard to fathom she would hold a personal view like that, but I guess some girls are like that in what they look for... 1
mtnbiker3000 Posted October 16, 2013 Posted October 16, 2013 Cuz she's an immature, stupid, selfish, materialistic b1tch. Absolutely nothing you want to deal with. Hope she was, at least, an animal in bed 1
