Deathanchor,
you may not realize it now, but this whole situation between you and this girl is a HUGE turning point in your relationships with women in the future.
And for the most part, you are not alone on this topic when it comes to cheating and other serious relationship problems.
However, just from this experience you've had, there is a lot of valuable information and lessons that you can learn out of this.
-Instead of saying "What can I do about THIS relationship?" ask "What can I do in the FUTURE TO PREVENT THIS?"
It's time like these when a girl does wrong to you, that you must stand your ground, and not tolerate that kind of action. If you are still considering to get with her even AFTER she cheated on you, she will have NO respect for you.
Sure, it may seem like it's all HER fault because she was the one that was cheating, but the bitter truth is that YOU also were the one that played a HUGE role in why she cheated on you in the first place.
Yes, it's a harsh slap of reality, but someone's got to give it to you. I'm not sure how many people are going to tell you that, but if you don't change the way you are handling your relationships with girls, you will be seeing more and more episodes of this tragedy replaying in your future relationships.
-Here's an analogy to digest:
The Liver and Advil
-------------------------------------------
When you get a disease in your liver, you may get headaches and nausea (I don't know whether this is true or not, but just hypothetically speaking).
When someone has this feeling of a headache, he will be taking an Advil to relieve the headache.
But later on, after the medicine wears off, his headache starts to slowly rise again, and thinking that the Advil will cure the headache, he happily pops in another pill without a second thought.
This time, it has less effect. He still has that feeling of the headache, so he takes another pill, thinking that one pill wasn't enough to get rid of it.
He continues this cycle until the Advil has almost no effect on the man, and he gets pretty nervous.
Little did he know that his liver's condition is constantly getting worse and worse by intaking too much Advil and not treating the original problem.
When he finally realized something was wrong, he went to the doctor's office to get examined, only to find that his liver is to the point of no return.
--------------------------------------------
So what does a liver disease got to do with this?
The liver, in this case, is the relationship between you and the girl.
The liver was originally created healthy, as is the start of a brand new relationship.
But without the liver getting proper nutrition and eating horrible junk, it will eventually start to become unhealthy and catch a disease.
-The side effects (headache) is signs that show that the relationship is developing problems:
-She may become aloof
-She may not go physical with you
-She gets bored too easily
-She may act rude
-She says "I love you" but can tell she doesn't mean it
The list could go on.
-But what I find interesting is how guys notice this problem, and they try to go for the instant gratification, the "Advil" approach:
-Overly giving her compliments
-Buying her gifts as a way to buy her into liking you
-Overly supplicating
-Being too needy
-Being too emotionally attached to the outcome
-Trying to confess how he "really feels" about her
Again, the list goes on...
Now, as giving a lot of compliments to a girl or being "Extra Super Nice" to a girl may be very flattering for her in the beginning, later on, she's going to be desensitized by this, think it's very boring, and her respect for you will drastically go down.
Thus, the liver (relationship) gets worse and worse, and by the time you finally see the doctor and see why she is acting so horribly to you, it is already too late.
-A key lesson to this is this:
Instead of focusing on taking the "Advil" and curing the side effects, focus on treating the liver itself.
I've seen so many guys completely destroy their relationships by acting upon the Advil effect syndrome (especially during the worst possible times to use them).
The liver is best kept healthy by staying healthy.
By acting on the Advil approach (i.e. safe, but boring; physically escalating beyond kissing too late) things will be losing their spark.
But by acting on keeping the liver healthy, such as:
-Fun and unpredictable
-Exciting
-Being totally comfortable with yourself
-Having a life other than her
-Not tolerating her bad behavior in a mature, confident way
-Showing appreciation to the girl in a non needy way
-Knowing how to be honest with no BS on the side
-Great Sex (Not suitable for minors)
And the list goes on.
Deep down in a fundamental level, we all know how to keep our relationships well.
But we have been programmed by society Bull**** that men use counter-intuitive concepts of being very nice to a girl that we like, making her do all the decisions to be polite, that the girls get very confused, and won't feel any ATTRACTION towards him, and either breaks up with him or secretly cheats on him for another guy that knows how to keep his liver healthy.
-One tough lesson I learned about relationships is this:
Just because you are in a relationship with a girl, doesn't guarantee that she ISN'T going to be cheating on you.
-First off, nothing is ever 100% in life.
-Second, if the boyfriend is very lame and tame and the girl gets bored of him, it's very possible that she will be cheating on him for another guy that has his act together.
-If you want women of high quality and beauty in your life, you have to realize that they have options with a lot of guys, and if you act overly supplicating and boring, you'll be just like the other hundreds of guys that are acting the SAME WAY around her, until there is one guy that acts differently on a more deeper level (taking initiative, being a leader in the interaction, confident, comfortable in his own skin, has goals in his life, doesn't apologize for being a man), and she feels strong, pulsating attraction for him.
-Why am I writing this much? Because I was in the exact same situation as Deathanchor, four years ago.
But instead of finding out the hard way, I'm typing this up because I don't want guys to go through the tough pain I had to go through to recover and to have truly fulfilling relationships with women.
Remember this:
Instead of "What can I do about THIS relationship?" ask "What can I do in the FUTURE TO PREVENT THIS?"
-You must move on. If you are too stuck up on one girl, you will not see other opportunities in your life to meet amazing girls of quality to add positivity, fun, and enjoyment to your life. Remember, relationships are supposed to be fun, and they are supposed to add to your life, rather than to take from it.
-What I am saying generally applies to pretty much anyone, but I don't know much about your situation Deathanchor to specifically pin point what's going on. But if you, Deathanchor, want to go more in depth on what I am saying, or have any questions, just PM me a message or IM me at KoreanDJ111 if you want to have a private consultation.
Anyone else have any relationship issues or any issues with girls that you would like to ask me privately, the same deal applies to you guys. PM me or hit me up on AIM. I enjoy helping others succeed so they don't have to go through the pain I went to in the past.
Cheers,
-KDJ
