No one had a worse weekend.

I spent 600 dollars on stupid things this weekend. I'm pretty bummed by my stupid decisions. But oh well it's only money.

A) Do you still have a job?

B) Do you still have a roof over your head and clean water?

C) Does your car work minus the need for a new battery (which doesn't cost that much compared to most things on a car)?

Time will heal the heart. But at least you gave it a shot. No regrets.

Better days ahead man.

Go for a run, breath some air and know that the sun will come up tomorrow.

Hang in there.

Obviously you acted on a whim when you opted to drive 1200 miles in 21 hours to go see a girl who shunned you cold.

I know it's hard to imagine but you've got to 1) get yourself together and 2) pick up your balls dude because life is over with that girl. At no point ever again should you talk about this with anyone and/or dwell on what happened. Delete that biotch from social media and move on. Hang out with your guy friends and try to go out and bang some other chicks will ya?

Long distance relationships are tough. Now you can find someone local. Sleeping in a rest stop was stupid though, after a 21 hour drive, you should have got a hotel. Hell you should have flown if you needed to get there that quick. At least its only a bunch of money on gas and a new car battery, and a break up. Some guy on that other thread is about to flunk a drug test tomorrow and then be unemployed for a really long time.

Look on the bright side: you have removed any doubt that your relationship is over. You are now able to move on.

Hard to get an idea of your 5k pace based off this workout. Ideally you want less driving in your workouts, replace most of that with long intervals and you will have a better predictor.

Failing is the first step to enlightenment, and congratulations, because you did that with flying colors.

It may seem that she was the 'one,' and only time will 'heal' this, but soon you'll learn that there is interchangeability, making it okay to let one of them go.

what things? I spent $120 on shoes and running shorts. Feel pretty bummed about that.

Miruts Yifter said you run better without women.

Kenenisa left his wife back home in Ethiopia during the Beijing Olympics, and look how that turned out. :)

It's all over wrote:

Drove 1200 miles in 21 hour window.

Drove from CNY to Indianapolis because I love a woman who lives there. She wouldn't talk to me (broke up/fighting/it's complicated) so I ended up sleeping in my car in some rest stop in the middle of no where just outside town.

Probably slept a good 90 minutes between midnight and 7 am. Woke up to a fully dead car battery, had to ask men coming to use the restroom if they could jump my car - that took an hour.

This was done in a compact car with no cruise, or ac and it was 93 out.

I had a really, really bad weekend . I think I lost her love. I drove there thinking I could fix everything somehow, but it all backfired and I looked like a fool. I'm devastated.

Other people make some good points in this thread. There have also been more vague threads relating to love blues on these forums for the past two years.

Love hurts regardless of your fortunes elsewhere.

A good way to help "time" do it's job is to get the ball rolling with people.

This is easier said than done and there are ineffective and unrealistic ways of going about that and effective ones.

For something realistic I would recommend a job where you are around a positive team of co-workers and you deal with customers frequently in a setting that is not toxic or all that demanding, aka retail cashiering. Old hurt feelings are still gonna be there but a little less so and you'll be more resilient.

What maybe you shouldn't do and wish you could do:

Whether or not you have money or think you can get it, and whether or not you have great social capital and dating chops or can hope to get it....

because you need something realistic to sustain you for the time being.

An uncertain breakthrough in the far future will not help your heartbreak so get out and do something even if it doesn't give you much money or mojo excitement/ego flattery (on the intense scale parallel to romance).

A job position or volunteer position that puts you in the center of action (but not too much action) and amidst reasonable people.

Then, after a while, you might organize your thoughts and your self-esteem and remember positive achievements from your past in a functional way for the future.

Love bites because when there are stakes in love and sex, whether it be the sex, the access and the exclusivity, the popularity games, the politics and affection and this and that, and material goods and services,

people are only so far away (i.e. very close) to being manipulated, screwed over royally, played, etc.

You may need two folds of action as a counterweight to what just occurred. A little bit of structure (what I just suggested) will provide the stabilization. Because it seems like you made a pilgrimmage that went awry and are in all-or-nothing flame out mode. So a bit of structure and safeguard is in order. But, you might also need a positive pilgrimmage to counterbalance and nourish your spirit. Don't go 100% on another pilgrimmage, just consider a part-time pilgrimmage. Up to you to figure out what that'll consist of, but it's got to be positive.

My two cents, take it or hate it.

Hit the weight room, increase your mileage, raise your T levels, eat right, body language, hygiene, get out of debt, make yourself happy. Get back in the game, friend!

OP at least you did something. You'll look back on this weekend and laugh in 20 years. All I did was drink diet coke and read reddit. I haven't changed underwear in three days.

Why didn't you just go to Golden Corral and sleep/run in the RV?

Like most runners, you are a chaser. Women are repulsed by chasing behavior. If you were of sufficient value, and she of sufficient perception, it would have been *her* driving the 1200 miles, and the world would be a better place.

"When it comes to b****es, I got more game than the Olympics

Get up in her mind analyze and twist

Her psychology

For no reason I'm receiving apologies

Break her down mentally

Have her stalking and following me."

Reality rap?

Had my girlfriend and her best friend trick me into going for her, had me admit that I liked my gf's best friend to my gf over facetime then told me it was all a joke and revealed that they were together through facetime. They both laughed at me, they both are now ignoring me.

We've all done stupid things for p***y, but you're biggest mistake was letting your battery die. You could have been kidnapped by rest stop rangers and be nekkid and tied up in the woods.

Wow, lots of replies. As lame as it sounds it helped reading a full page of posts from you guys this morning.It's funny you mention this, I kept waking up to the slightest commotion in the parking lot because I was paranoid someone was going to rob me or whatever. At 7 I got up and saw that 5 other cars were parked doing the exact same thing I was, random dudes sleeping in the cars with the seat angled all the way back. I thought, why are these guys doing this too?

So you averaged 57 MPH? What kind of pansy are you? Put your foot down in your life and in your crappy car.

And I know a little something about bad relationships.
