I was friends with this woman for two years before becoming a couple. We had been sort of soft-dating for a few months this year, going to dinner and movies often. In August, we made it official. We had a really good two months of being an official couple, both hitting it off with each other's siblings and parents.
Around two months, when it started getting cold out, her smile had faded. I was worried about her. She told me she was depressed and that if she can't give herself 100%, she doesn't think she can give a relationship what it deserves.
We're still friends and talk daily. We recently met up again to get dinner and see a movie we'd talked about seeing when we were together. She's smiling again and was telling me about everything she's been reading. She told me she's been in therapy.
All of our mutual friends know that I was falling in love with her. Most of them, especially the women, have said that they're confident that this isn't the end for us and it's just a bump in the road.
Am I delusional for listening to them?

>Am I delusional for listening to them?
no, just continue being close and let her deal with whatever she's dealing with and then see where you stand
>>
>>33990034
Okay. That's what the friends, namely the women, have said as well. I suppose I needed to hear it from someone that isn't in my life already.
Thanks, anon.

You're gonna turn into a skeleton waiting for this girl to reciprocate you and she's just gonna end up getting bored of you and fucking chad instead

Do yourselves both a favor and MOVE THE FUCK ON

I'll keep it short, sweet, and compassionate. It's over man, her depression is just an excuse. I've been in your situation before, though, in my situation, she left entirely and we weren't friends after
>>
>>33990191
Fuck off tranny, you don't speak for women. Stop trying to change in their locker rooms you subhuman piece of shit.

Who was she dating while you guys were friends? Shes probably back with him or found another guy. Remember, if a girl isn't HELL YES, it's a HELL NO

Not op but move the fuck on to whomst? We're in a dating crisis right now.

Do you think she would say that to Henry Cavill if he was asking?

Not trying to be a dick, but think about that seriously. How quick do you imagine she could get herself 'un-depressed' in that situation?

Women couldn't tell the straight up truth if they had a gun to their head. They lie, then lie, then lie again. They do that all day. It's why you watch what they do and never listen to what they say.

But remember that your advantage as a man is that your brain runs on logic. Women suck at logic so once you start thinking with your brain instead of your dick you can see just how lazily their excuses are slapped together and don't hold up under scrutiny. If it doesn't make logical sense, it's obviously not true. They can't figure out excuses that do make logical sense so their only other weapon is to stop you thinking logically through emotional manipulation.

A good example is Dalia Dippolito, caught red-handed on camera trying to hire a dude to kill her husband who turns out to be an undercover cop. The cops make her think he's dead so they can interrogate her, then reveal he's alive. She tries to convince him she did nothing wrong and even tries to turn shit around and get him to help her even though he's seen the footage. You can see how it's messing with his brain but he manages to overcome it logically:

its crazy how moids are so jealous of henry cavill in particular.
moids never turn down sex. if every single woman in the world wanted to whore ourselves out to henry cavill, we would.

you are projecting. moids admit that they love fucking lying.

moids never use logic. moids have no morals cand can punch their way out of any problem, so why would moids be logical?

I'm not dalia dippolito, retard. a moid thought he could get away with crimes by covering himself in lemon juice.

and why did he marry someone so crazy? choose better women.
>>
>>33993653
Hi anon, OP here.
What's your read on the situation? Is staying around as her friend, like she asked, and giving her time to work through her mental health issues what I should do? Should I eventually bring us up again, or do I leave it to her?
>>
>>33993776
idfk. i'd guess that relationships with "breaks" dont turn out happy, but i know moids dont want happy relationships.
>>
>>33993794
That's fair. I suppose I'm holding on to the hope that she is at her core a good person who needs help.

>she was depressed and that if she can't give herself 100%
women will literally fly across the world to put some guy's phallus in their throat because they desire them so much. Stop giving so much effort to a girl that cannot reciprocate. Save yourself the time and focus on your own life.
>I was falling in love with her
girls decide if they want a relationship. Guys can feel all this they want, but you cannot force it. Women can fake interactions rather easily. They lie often. Its the men who are the "romantic" dating types.
>have said that they're confident that this isn't the end for us
separate your love interest to friends, coworkers and family you idiot. The world need not know your own personal love life. Keep that shit a secret the fuck. You wonder why your chick wants to leave your faggot ass lel
>We're still friends and talk daily.
you're probably scaring her away by being too clingy- or you've forgotten how to be the man she fell for in the beginning. Let the woman worry about the relationship details, you need to focus on your own goals and life. If she isn't going to be around for when that happens, you need to keep it pushing. So give her space and let her be. If she's being cold, then do the same.
>I was worried about her.
get your money up, not your funny up
>>
It was only a matter of time once she figured it all out, she's done with you
>>
>>33990004
If she has a mental disorder, maybe she is working on herself.
Are you really willing to work through all of that?
If yes, then you just have to be patient and supportive.
If no, then walk but at least be honest and upfront with her.
>>
>>33990004
Are you, me?
If she does come back do I still have a chance myself?

>its crazy how moids are so jealous of henry cavill in particular.
Delusional. I was just using the name of some male actor. I could have said Hugh Jackman or Cary Grant if this was 1942. I don't give a particular shit about any of those guys, but of course, you knew that.

>moids never turn down sex.
Have several times over my lifetime already, and not because I didn't find them physically attractive. One was too young. One was a married woman literally begging me to kiss her. Most were women coming onto me AFTER I got married. So I've seen more than my fair share of women acting like whores that I've rejected just on principle.

>if every single woman in the world wanted to whore ourselves out to henry cavill, we would.
Seems like a significant percentage would try - all at once. Also YWNBAW tranny.

>you are projecting. moids admit that they love fucking lying.
Ironic.

>moids never use logic.
'never' lol

>moids have no morals cand can punch their way out of any problem, so why would moids be logical?
Because other men can punch us back if we act like illogical women.

>women make lazy excuses for everything!!1
their excuses are 'lazy' because they can't think them through properly and are very used to papering around the edges and getting away with it. You don't have to be Columbo to figure out where their shit logically doesn't hold water.

>BUT I WAAAAAAANA COMMIT RAPE WHAT ABOUT MY FEEWINGS
Your brain on feminism = every man wants to rape.

>I'm not dalia dippolito, retard.
Implying she's the only one and the point wasn't that she's just one example of woman tactics in 1080p.

>and why did he marry someone so crazy? choose better women.
Yes, one should definitely avoid giving rings to obvious whores. So I agree we should roll back to the pre-feminism days when there were more serious consequences for acting like one. We should separate the wheat from the chaff as early as possible and permanently pin a scarlet letter on it to warn other men.
>>
>>33994658
no, i mean henry cavill is always the example moids use, its weird, esp cause the celeb that women use as an example of a sexy moid is harry styles.

the only principles moids have are have sex and spread suffering. you are telling fanfics of yourself

"try" my ass. moids dont turn down sex. every woman WOULD fuck henry cavill if we wanted to.

>other men can punch us if we act like illogical women

moids do not hold each other accountable. akku yadav was the ultimate moid.

moids justify rape and torture with "BUT I WANNA BUT I WANNA" and they call women illogical for not putting up with all the bullshit.

>women dont think through how badly i want sex slaves!11!

Moids admit that they all want to rape. You brag about it all the time.

I am not a feminist. moids are not equals, moids arent even people. moids are vermin to be stomped out

>Implying shes the only one

God, are moids fucking illiterate? I dont hav eanything to do with this random fucking woman, i wasnt "implying" anything, im not apologizing for another person's actions.

Been in the exact same spot as you. She stated the exact same things about how she felt. I tried to give her the benefit of the doubt, but we ended things, and she started seeing someone else immediately. Though to be fair, every relationship is different, and most of our mutual friends didn't really understand her actions either. Just tread carefully.

I bet a million dollars she thinks her mail man is trying to rape her, so when she gets her mail, she wears a hoodie to not be seen, grabs the mail and runs into her home, and then slams the door breathing heavily. That and she puts tin foil all over her house to prevent moids from seeing her. She then of course has multiple controversial extremist feminist books like that of how society is better and crime rate less had every man been castrated book. Only time she is positive is when her elderly mother comes over to give her cookies, everyone else is a demon.

I don't get the Henry Cavill obsession. He's only ever called "the most attractive man evar!!!" by other men. I've never heard a woman talk about how hot he is and claim him as a celebrity crush.
It reminds me of how women will claim Zendaya is the hottest women alive despite no men thinking so.
>>
You should just talk to her about it. Say that she's been looking better and that you want to know if there could still be something between you two.
>>
>>33995565
>moids dont turn down sex.
This is just not true. I've probably turned down more women than I've had sex with.
>>
>>33998818
im not a jeet retard. aand im nota feminist, moids are inferior
>>33999483
i didnt know some women considered zendaya the hottest woman. my impression was that its sydney sweeney or angelina jolie?
the most attractive man is james madison. second is uncle farmer dad ben.

>>33999483
you don't get it, the point is do you think she would have said the same to an extremely attractive man? No.

OP, I can tell you what happened - she liked you, but didn't feel super attracted to you. This made her feel trapped in the relationship and she started having thoughts like "will this be the rest of my life?" That's why she got depressed, and that's why she's happier now that she split from you. Be thankful that it happened sooner rather than later; I have a friend who dated a woman for like 5 years and one day she literally grabbed all of her stuff out of the apartment and just moved out.

I guarantee if you revisit the relationship from this new lens you will start to see signs of her lukewarm interest. Anyhow, the relationship is over unless one of you significantly changes.

>moids dont turn down sex
I'm Indian-American, I've turned down sex before. Women act like they're OK being friends with benefits but in reality they always want more and every single FWB situation has imploded because of this, so I only date seriously now. I live in NYC and you can hop on the apps and have 3-4 dates a week with cute girls if you want to. But, if it makes you feel better to think I'm lying then go ahead lol

wtf does this mean? it sounds like FWB is ust a relationship where the woman is also allowed to sleep around.
>so I only date seriously now
well whats the fucking difference
>if it makes you feel better to think I'm lying then go ahead lol
moids admit that they are soleley motivated by hunger, hatred, and horniness. it is illogical to think that a moid would turn down sex.

damn this sounds exactly like my male ex and his pattern behavior. Strange how he wants to experience more pussy meanwhile I have remained loyal even when he broke up with me. Men are whores.
>>
>>34000643
>wtf does this mean? it sounds like FWB is ust a relationship where the woman is also allowed to sleep around.
A lot of women (most, I would say) don't want to have more than one FWB. My experience with dating apps in NYC is that most of the women on there just got out of a relationship about 1-3 months ago, or they're super busy students/professionals.

They know they're not ready for a serious relationship but they still want casual, steady physical intimacy so they hop on the apps "to make new connections" and once they find a guy they want to fuck steadily they usually slow down on the apps.

They almost always underestimate their desire for emotional intimacy, and once you start fucking them they become attached to you. Never ever had a mentally stable girl who didn't become emotionally invested and attached in some way (the unstable ones drown out the pain of their ex with a FWB, and then drown out the pain of that FWB with another one, etc..).

My worst experience is I was casually sleeping with this cute, really lawyer who'd just gotten out of a 5 year relationship. The more time we spent with each other the more we mutually started to really fall for each other. Well one day it we had a discussion about getting serious and it turns out we have completely different sets of values and perspectives on things around gender/sex/trans/pronouns etc (she's a lot more liberal than I). So basically we realized it would never work and we ended it there. Worst emotional pain I've ever experienced, that's why I only date seriously now, because when you date seriously you have these conversations early
>>
>>34000923
?? because theyre incontinent and have gonorhea and eat their mom shit and dirt???
>They almost always underestimate their desire for emotional intimacy
LMFAOOO this is a pretty big reason why i refuse to lose my virginity. moids will even hate you MORE if you fuck them
>>
>>34002576
I literally cannot stress this enough.
I am a virgin and MEN ARE RAPISTS.
I hope you guys understood this post because I'm going to go post it 1000 more times before the jannies even consider banning me.
>>
>>34002588
it's not my fault that moids accuse virgins of being whores, nor is it my fault that moids admit that they are rapists.
why do you think moids constantly justify rape, jackass?
>>
there are a lot of people who are so insecure in themselves they sabotage relationships they really want to be in, thinking they're not worthy of it.
i'd just give her space and see if she opens up. i feel like everyone's become anxious/avoidant in this age.
>>
>>34002778
This is my thoughts on it. We've known each other for a while, I know that she's been afraid of inheriting her mother's bipolar disorder. She's been the most encouraging person in my weight loss so far.
I think that we both need to work on ourselves first and be better options for each other in the future.
