a big sh!t sammich

[Celerity]

I'm experiencing "Empty Phone Syndrome". No IMs, no TXTs, no voicemails. No rings. Nothin. Depressing as hell.

Something is seriously wrong with the ZX12. It's got the power of a 600 all the sudden, the thing is a total sled. slightly (Like, minute) rough idle, a touch of surging at neutral throttle. Sometimes falls on it's face under throttle for a split second. Taking turns from a stop (intersections) actually requires throttle now. Runs smooth. Gets 28 mpg. Can't figure it out.

Now I need to go into the conference room and figure out if I can put fuel injector cleaner in it, or if it will ruin something.

It's pouring over here. I managed to find a window in the passing weather to ride in today, but it's getting poured on and I'm not sure what I'll find on my way home.

It's so quiet I can hear a pindrop. I can't believe last week was like the greatest week in my life, and this one just sucks long donkey dick.

Anyone else ?

 

[Celerity]

Oh, and I guess my ex's new boyfriend won, while I wasn't looking. She isn't responding to anything now. Pretending that I'm dead.

Nice.

Sorry to hear you're having a bad week. I've been in a shitty mood the past couple days, so today I'm doing what I want to do. My uncle called and wants to go sailing, so that's what we're doing. Picking up my son after kindergarten and heading for the boat. It's a great way for me to relax and clear my mind. Fuck everything and everybody else.

 

[BodyDroppedNikes]

no phone problems here. i hardly get any as it is...lol.

i can text ya if you want Cel. i aint got shit else to do...

 

[INJEN78]

my phone is usually quiet..
then its either people that want something,or dumbass wrong dials...
damn i need more friends

 

[dveit]

But quality is better than quantity though. My phone is very quiet, usually only family or the 2-3 good friends that I have that call. Having too many friends usually just leads to a dramafest or people talking about each other behind their backs. It's not worth the trouble.

 

[nootrac22]

give me your number I'll text you

 

[get_nick]

nothing wrong with not getting texts. hell, i was home alone all memorial weekend and didn't get shit. my gf was in cali with a broken phone. (it broke before she left)

why the hell would you call the ex? didn't you break up with HER? i called the ex after we broke up because i went through the same shit you are. i'ts just being lonely. but it only caused more drama and had a pregnancy scare. not fucking worth it if you ask me. beat your meat and go for a bike ride. indulge in a huge meal you wouldn't eat and get over it. it's life. it has it's highs and lows my friend. i have posted many a thread about my highs and lows.

 

[D16Civic]

I actually prefer it when my phone is quiet.

 

[Celerity]

I talk to her because I don't hate her. I wished her a happy birthday, invited her out on a few rides with me (She rides the Vespa). Had good conversations on the phone. I don't want to date her again, she was poison. But she is still a good girl, and I can't turn my back on 14 years of memories.

But then she told me a few weeks ago "Thank you for wishing me a happy birthday but please don't come around my work or house anymore"

I forced her to be truthful with me: Her new boyfriend (Who she was starting to see when I dumped her) told her he doesn't want me around, and he hates me.

So I cracked my knuckles. If it's a war he want, it's war he has. I have nothing better to do than ruin this kid.

And when a man tells another that she isn't "allowed" to see the guy she was practically married to, this is an act of war. I'm Celerity, dammit, not some guinea douchebag wife beater. Just because he had to hear about how everything he does isn't as good as what I do, that's not my fault.

That really pissed me off. You will not convince me to see another side to this. I have no plans on ever dating or being with my ex ever again (Oh hell no) but I can still be friendly and cordial to her. She didn't betray me, I caught everything when it began to happen.

 

[INJEN78]

if you want some help beating this guys ass just lemme know

 

[get_nick]

i'm telling you now, just move on and forget about it.

if she doesn't realize he is a douche bag, let her have him. obviously she is with him for a reason, and no matter what you say or do, she will do what she wants.

it isn't your job to look out for her best interests anymore. if she wants to do meth and be a street hooker, let her. you aren't part of her life anymore. you can be nice and cordial, but it isn't your role. when she moved out, she died.

don't be a tough guy and get yourself in trouble. even if you ruin this guy, she will still feel the same about you, if not start hating you. it's a lose/lose and a waste of time.

troof



I'd rep you for that but I gotta spread it first

 

[Celerity]

I totally disagree. you're not the first person to say this, and I still totally disagree. I'm actually more on par with Injen's response than that one.

You don't give up and walk away from 14 years with one woman. Especially when there isn't any mutual feeling of disdain or hatred. And we didn't walk awy from each other, we maintained communication and friendship. This guy coming in and pissing on her and I is intolerable. No one treats Uncle Cel like shit. No one. I don't deserve it.

 

[TurboMirage]

bikes dont like to be ridden in the rain.

 

[Celerity]

Is that the scientific reason ? Just makes them sad ?

 

[oneofakinduserid]

i'll text you if you want

and if she's the type of pushover that lets a guy tell her who she can and can't hang with, then fuck her.. she'd be just as much of a douche as her new guy. and whatever you decide to do to the bf, just don't get caught

 

[navtecftw]

You know, Cel, I dun really know you, but I lurk a lot. It seems like you're letting this get to you way too much compared to your usual self. A lot of your problems you have now seem like they could have been avoided if you would have thought some stuff through, you know?

You're too mature for 19 year old chicks. You know this. You still seem to have gotten it in your head that you could have had something. You need to find someone who you can at least be part of yourself around, and not have to watch your step.. and that isn't any teenager I know.

As for your ex, I only know what I've read about her. I understand you were good friends and basically married, etc, etc, but trying to just spend time with her is going to be hard on both of you. Especially if she doesn't want it. If she lets her boyfriend talk her into not talking to you, it's too late. Do yourself a favor and just drop it.

Sure, you're lonely, but you'll get over it. Go wrench on your bike till she's running good, and then throw your life into that. Maybe you need to take a break for a while- a lot of shit has been going on. Take that depression/loneliness you have and go force yourself to do work. Fix your cars, clean up the yard, all that shit people have been bitching about. Keeping busy is the answer to all of your problems, maybe.

Sorry- I know I'm not very old, and don't know you, but I had to throw something in. Everyone else is.

dude, this has NOTHING to do with you at all. it is all about her. if she wants to be treated like shit and taken advantage of, it's on her. nobody is doing anything wrong to you. You don't have to give up on 14 years. but you weren't married and don't have kids. 14 years isn't much different than 14 months or 14 days if you weren't married. she moved on dude, you need to do the same.

and on a side note. i messed with a 19 year old last year and had the same problem. i made a whole thread and posted pictures. i was all worried about the shit. marsha made it very clear to me that i was stupid and to be upset about it was pointless because it wasn't my type of girl anyways.

steve, this girl meant nothing to you. she was a 19 year old hayride that made you feel young again. she can't satisfy you, and you shouldn't be looking for a replacement for your ex.

if your civic was to blow the engine, you would probably upgrade to a b-series right? well, take what you got with your ex and what you liked about her and find something new, only a little bit better. it's how humans are supposed to react. you lose something, wait a while, then upgrade. come on now.

He has enough of a point to continue to defend and follow what he believes, it's not like he's got nothing and completely wrong.

If you honestly never want anything more than friends, there is nothing wrong with defending a great friendship. The fact that you two dated doesn't bother you, but it does bother him. If you're not going to give up, it's just a battle to see who will have the biggest effect on her. I'm sorry to say, but if she doesn't pull through it means she did to you what Nick is telling you to do to her.
