Longest relationships:

Current: 10 years in April ( married 5 years so far) mr. trojangal is really something else...friends on both sides were kind of amazed that we actually married...they all saw us more as a long term relationship forever..still remember some of our good friends passing a $50 at the wedding reception..apparently they had a betting pool if he was going to ever get married :rolleyes:

the one before that: 1 year and 2 months: wow..this one was just one of those times where I must have been out of my head--I look back now and ask myself "what was I doing???


the one in college: 2 years--this was my TKE sweetie..we were engaged and things just didn't work out...I was going to be graduating and he still had another year...sometimes I think there may have been some "family" pressure on both sides as well although it was pretty subtle..it was an awful breakup for both of us..we stayed in touch for years until I met mr. trojangal, and then kind of drifted out of touch..we sort of know how each other is doing through friends, but don't ask..I know he got married the year before I did to a sweet girl who really suited him better

7 years and 9 months. We broke up a week before Valentine's Day last year @ a Starbucks in Manhattan that I avoid now at all costs. We started dating at the end of my freshmen year of HS when he was a senior there too, ages 15 & 18. Things went sour when I went to college and we never fully recovered, tho we did pretend we were fine for 4 years after that! How grown up of us.

A year out of the relationship now I see things with a lot of clarity and know it was not the healthiest of relationships and that I deserve better. I always thought I'd marry him but now I feel that I'd always be a "little girl" in that relationship, never his equal and thankfully since then I've grown up quite a bit. I'm a better person because of all that. No regrets.

Currently I've been dating a great man here in the city for 3 months. :)

Most of my relationships have been 1 month or less.

Sophomore year of high school, I was with a guy for close to five months...he broke up with me a few days before prom because he had cheated on me and wanted to start dating the other girl...

My current relationship will be 3 months on Tuesday...and I couldn't be happier...

Too Long!
 
My longest relationship was 4 years. Came to college and the boyfriend got mad because I went through recruitment. About 2 months after I came to college, I broke up with him. He was never supportive of anything I wanted to do and all he wanted me to do was spend every waking minute with him! I love him to death, but he was just holding me back from all the great friendships I've formed since coming to college!

This thread is old, but I like it so I'll respond to it:p .

6 years- married for 2. She came from a family background that was opposite of mine. That caused a lot of problems. At the time I didn't know how important family background was. I should have listened to my parents. Everything was great before we got married, but afterwards...? Put it this way, I was really glad to get out. (No Kids) thank GOD.:p

6 months-my parents didn't like this girl. She turned out to be a slut anyway.

5 days-I was in highschool. I really liked her a lot. She broke up with me because I was going off to college in another state. She thought I would leave her for another woman.

My longest: 8 months. He's a great guy, and we're still friends, but he went off to Iraq and our relationship couldn't handle the distance.

3 1/2 years - guy I went to college with. He was my best friend. I never really looked at him like 'that' though, so it didn't work out.

2 years - guy I used to work with. He just wasn't ready for a relationship. Neither was I, lol.

current: 2 years, 4 months. Still going strong. :)

1). My current realationship is by far the longest!!! It will be 7 years on Dec. 17th! :)

2). A guy I dated during my senior yr. of college. He dumped me for his high school sweetheart after 4 months. She eventually dumped him for a women. And he now dates men.... so go figure....

3). Three months during the summer between my sophmore and junior yrs. in college. I loved him and was crushed that he didn't want to be an exclusive couple while I was away at college. Shortly after I went back to college he had sex with one of my friends. Explains why he didn't want to be a couple! :rolleyes:

1st relationship) 5 months: March 2001 - September 2001: He was the biggest jerk. I was stupid for thinking he was worth my time. Note: This relationship and the next one overlapped for two weeks. lol...I was 19 and dumb...what can I say? The 1st bf was not thrilled. The 2nd bf was just happy that he stole me away. :rolleyes:


2nd relationship) 3 years and 1 month, September 2001 - October 2004: It had seriously run its course. We should not have been together that long. Piece of advice: If you find yourself wondering why you are still with someone and it is just not fun to be around that person anymore...IT IS TIME TO BREAK UP. Don't stick around for another 6 months so you can try to figure it out.:rolleyes:


3rd relationship) 6 and a half months, May 2006 - current: I don't see this one ending anytime soon....;) :D

1. 6+ years and counting: The husband. We dated for nearly 3 years before getting married; we celebrated our 3rd anniversary in Sept.

2. 3 months: summer between freshman and sophomore years of college. It ended because he was going to college 500 miles away.

3. 2 months: beginning of freshman year of college. We quickly discovered we had nothing in common when we were sober.

Obviously, I was not much of one for dating...

15 years--- dated for 5, married for 10--- AND i picked up my divorce papers from the attorney today!!! :p

Cardinal026 11-29-2006 12:03 PM

The one I'm in now is at 6 years and 2 months - we did break up for almost a year 2 years ago, because we were at the point where we'd never dated anyone else and started having doubts about being so serious...I went out a few times during the period but no real "relationship" - I pretty much was just still dating him. But we're back together, and happier than ever :)

Before this one, I dated someone for 11 months, and someone for 3.

5 years and still counting :). I like to think I finally did something right the first time, hehe.

hmmm
 
1. Spring semester of my jr. year in high school- spring semester of my freshman year in college. We went to schools far apart and when I went to go see him for our two year anniversary, he broke up with me. It was tough. We were young (I was 17 by the time it ended), so, go figure. He was great other than that lol.

2. 2 months my sophomore year in college. We both kinda realized it was going nowhere.

3. 2yrs+ now.

I've been with my fiance for nearly four years now. We met on a blind date and we've been together ever since! Life is never boring when we're together, that's for sure!

1 1/2 years in high school. We broke it off because we were more friends. Funny thing is, fours years have passed and we've never once talked again. So much for friends!

All the other guys I dated were under three months. Plus, those two relationships have pretty much taken up my life!
