I hope we can get medieval legal system... as I can get a duel and kill someone...

Sleep with that guys sister. Then when he approaches you say: "I don't see a ring on her finger". Then drink a beer or six.

On a serious note, if her head is being turned by power and cash, then well I don't think she's good enough for you. Better to let her make up her own mind. Be mature, tell her you don't like what this guy is doing. Tell her that you won't make any decision for her, that she should do what she thinks would be best.

Nonsense, I will strike with unremitting fury if my lady is offended, but I'm not going to crash headlong into a fight just because I'm offended, that would not be chivalrous.

A bit possessive, are we?

So she likes someone else better, take it like a man and move on with your life. She clearly isnt the one for you if her feelings is not stronger.

After thinking about that for a while... I think that you have the most logical suggestion........ maybe I should introspect myself more and stop drowning myself in beer....

[Centurion1]

you should still the dudes ass though. so when you run into him in the future and shes with him you will feel superior.

Yes, so true. And I felt in on my own skin too, except the possessive person was the other guy *whistling uncomfortably* . Remember that time I was chased by a gang in Russia, for all you Taverners? Yeah, I somehow got the attention of the hottest girl in town (no kidding) and the bloke whom she dated before was apparently a popular person as well, and so he gathered up his friends, about 10-15 of them, and ambushed me, literally, intending to jump me - to beat the crap out of me in other words. Good thing I was on the school cross-country team, and I got away even with all of them chasing me - and was lucky to not have been hit with the rocks they threw when I was getting away. Nothing glamorous here, but I am not stupid enough to get licked because of a girl who I do not even have a romantic interest towards - and they were after me, not her, of course.

The really thing was that my relationship with the girl was purely platonic. Now, she really fell for me, but before I start boasting, a lot of that undoubtedly had to do with the fact I was 'American', wealthy (God, I love the Russian exchange rates...) and sophisticated by the standards of the small town in Russia. In fact, it is hard for me to say which was the bigger reason for her attraction towards me - yeah, life is brutally blunt like that. Fun times, though, she was a very interesting person to talk to, I remember. That time I got chased by the gang had to be my most memorable adrenaline-rush, something I usually have trouble attaining. And then there was that time when that girl was shy and she spoke in Romanian that she wanted to kiss me, and happened to know the language a bit due to the fact my grandparents from father's side lived in Moldova. Of course, I never told her that I spoke the language, and good thing too, because that would have been an embarrassing moment .

[Cute Wolf]

Yeah, I allready talk to her and she said that she didn't have any feelings with that guy...

But when I ask a friend that knows her well... she said that those man are more mature than me, and maybe better for serious reasons
I feel she was cheating on me now... but it was because that filthy man chase off her unrelently... (as well as I made him got a bruise on his head)... ouw.... It looks like that the turning event was when I smash his head to the wall... I never tought about that risk before.... should I made peace or start cause more trouble for him? (thinking about made some really vicious pranks)...

[Aemilius Paulus]

Yeah, I allready talk to her and she said that she didn't have any feelings with that guy...

Heh, we all know how true such things are when women say them

But when I ask a friend that knows her well... she said that those man are more mature than me, and maybe better for serious reasons

Well, but he is a first-class jerk and an rectal-hole to do this to you. On the other hand, it was not a mature thing of you to fight him - in fact, I think that did more to distance you from your GF than anything that other bloke could have done. However, to conclude, no sane person would choose a mature jerk over a person whose main flaw is a lack of a bit maturity. (Almost) All of us grow more serious and level-headed as we grow older, but if he is both mature and a jerk, that is worrisome.

So what should I do? I was really disturbed by the very existance of such person on earth... but as "modern" laws applies... I can't just challange him into a duel and kill him..... hell yeah.... that was the very reason in all cultures to have a duel as a problem solving solution specifically for this case... but too bad.... pesky lawmakers...

[Centurion1]

Listen if this girl understands you did nothing wrong then dump her. You rightfully confronted this guy he swung at you and you ended the confrontation. she sound slike a real ***** if she cant grasp that concept you deserve better.

actually I hope Prussian Iron lived in a nation that still use medieval laws, so he can just draw his zweihander, and cut the offender in half.... not like this, where the law made me totally stucked....

and next morning I will try again to explain everything to my girl..... btw...

[Centurion1]

and next morning I will try again to explain everything to my girl..... btw...

dude you have nothing to explain you tried to verbally confront him politely and he insulted you and her honor and tried to hit you. She should be licking your boots. Make her explain herself to you.

[Cute Wolf]

the problem is, everybody on her office now think that he only want to "just raise" his hand, and it was me who slam his head to the wall first... too bad, it only leave a minor bruise... (but clearly visible), so he claims that I was the one who hit him...

Thinking about the dillema of being act manly and everybody accuse me of being violent... or receive the hit and lost my pride.....

[Centurion1]

alright thats pissing me off. leave her if she really loves you she will come back. Man she isnt even defending you. Not worth no matter how hot she is.

[Ser Clegane]

dude you have nothing to explain you tried to verbally confront him politely and he insulted you and her honor and tried to hit you. She should be licking your boots. Make her explain herself to you.

Maybe I missed something - where exactly has her honor been insulted by the other guy and what should she lick Cute Wolf's boots for?

[Subotan]

It will and it shall live in our minds forever. Because it means that with the advice of the .org he actually had a girl to lose......... i wait with bated breath.

With the fusion of the suaveness of the .Org and PI's natural ability as a "common intellectual", that shouldn't be too long a wait.

sweet moves d00d, i'm with you, every step of the way.

there's always more sweet 'tang to be hit*!

Childish brawling is not manly. Apolagise to him for slamming his head against a wall, if he then says he'll take your girlfriend off you, offer to step outside for a fair fight. From your posts in this thread I suspect you insulted him, which is why he raised his hand.

As far as killing him goes, you have no right unless he threatens her; even if it were legal all you would do would be to make her afraid of you.

[Centurion1]

the boots were excessive but where i come from if someone is going out with another person it is simply rude to blatantly hit on them. Rude to the women because at the heart of it you believe she is trashy enough to drop her boyfriend right then

[miotas]

Tell her she has to make a choice, she either has to break up with you or tell this bloke where to stick it.

[Kadagar_AV]

Tell her she has to make a choice, she either has to break up with you or tell this bloke where to stick it.

Very bad advice. Seems rather childish.

Cute_Wolf, there are basicly two possible scenarios.

A) She is seriosly interested in him. If that's the case, as I mentioned before, just take it as a man and move on.

However, there is another very possible scenario...

B) She is just attention seeking. Long distance is hard and often lonely, so she is desperate for some attention. She would prefer attention from you (being her boyfriend), but if she cant get it she is ready to take it from anywhere, and she is flattered when an older colleage flirts. When you hear talk about "him being more serious" it's really all about her wanting YOU to be more serious.

If you really love this girl (have no idea as to why you do, plenty of girls out there who wouldnt treat you like this), then what I would suggest you to is to take her to a romantic dinner. Don't go all emotional on the topic, and dont have it as a main point for the conversation. But about when the desserts comes (and a bottle of wine is downed), mention that you dont like her accepting other mens approaches when she is in a serious relationship. Make HER on the defensive side, dont even get into who hit whom and when and where and why. Just keep it very short, something along the line of:

"By the way, about [insert his name], maybe you havent got the attention you deserve lately. But set yourself in my position, how would you feel if another girl were openly flirting with me, and I accepted it and hung out with her? You'd want to scratch her eyes out, right, specially if she told you to your face that she wanted me. I'm sure you get my point, how was your dessert?"

Just have it said and move on, NO dwelling on the topic as she will very fast turn the tables around to what you have done wrong if you do.

And about the guy, just laugh him off if you meet him again. Make her understand SHE must deserve you, it goes both ways, and you wont run after her if she treats you with disrespect.


That was me being nice.

The not so nice part of me wonder why you want to be with a girl who disrespects you like that. I also think that what you want from medieval times is not the duel system, but to have the belief system back that women must have men making decisions for them as they are unable on their own. There is no such thing as "stealing" someones girl, and not even getting married is a failsafe for making a relationship work. She migh meet more interesting people, sucks I know. Only thing you can do about it to try and be interesting yourself :)

[Philippus Flavius Homovallumus]

Yet more petulence!

You guys are all acting like this girl is a piece of meat.

[Jolt]

Catch him when he's eating something (Be that at lunch, eating breakfast, eating a bubblegum, anything) and say the following words:

"I see you like to chew. Maybe you should chew..

ON MY FIST!"

Then proceed to approach your fist to his mouth at a high velocity. Provided you put enough speed, when/if he ever thinks about what he was doing or thinking about approaching your girl, his gonna remember what happened to him.

Hmm..... I'll do that... yeah...
Of course... I know in this case... I was at the wrong side... as I never talk about marriage in serious manner with her... but that man pursue and discuss serious matter about that.... and for my past action of hitting him... I just recently know directly from her (just talk on the phone this morning), that after I hit his head, many of her friends ADVISE HER TO BREAK UP WITH ME, WHAT THE HELL?!?...
But Thanks Jesus... she said that she exactly know how I was a very childish and could be explosive if angered... afterall, she was my friend since primary school... and she just can't judge everything in instant... but she didn't think of a breakup at all, except I do something "really stupid" again...

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

And for more... I was "banned" from entering her office too... and she said that if she could get a new job soon, maybe that was the best case.... have your friend enter the office uninvited, and slam the head of the head accountant is just plain disturbing to her employers... lucky for me, that employers are only a rather small business, and I will work as lecturer in my university.

[Subotan]

Get the discussion about it over and done with as soon as possible. There's a phrase in English which is "turning over a new leaf", which means seizing something like this as an opportunity to get a fresh start. If she wants to take it more seriously, then this is the perfect opportunity to do so.

To me this says that she knows what your faults are and she accepts them, which means that she must care about you a lot. If you guys are really this close I don't think you have anything to worry about.

My advice is this: Don't waste your time and energy being jealous and mad. Yes going after someone else's girlfriend is a really lame thing to do, but there's nothing you can do about that. Instead of worrying about losing your girlfriend, which will drive you guys apart, just be glad that you have her in your life. Try to be a better boyfriend* and work on strengthening the relationship that you have with her.

*Not that I think that your a bad boyfriend
