It’s Time to Grow Up!
So you guys can say what you want. I am a long time reader of this site and I know how the comments can get, Frankly, I think the majority of you should take a long hard look at your own lives and consider what you need to fix before you go passing judgement and dishing out advice on how others need to be. While I appreciate a nice healthy discussion, I don’t particularly care for those who just hang around the comments section to just bash people. Well,that was just my two cents, so now on to my story….
I am a junior in college. My boyfriend and I met during Freshman orientation and were friends during our first year. After he broke up with his girlfriend from back home, he and I started dating. This guy is like the best and worst of a guy. He is really smart and is majoring in computer engineering, and graphics design and animation. He is so talented, but I feel as though he does not give it his all. He is just okay with coasting. He produces amazing work and is really excited about starting his career, but I just feel like he has more potential. He could be a brain surgeon or something and instead he is going to work in an industry that doesn’t always promise good money. It’s like a brain wasted! Lol. I have asked him what his plans for life are and he can’t give me an answer past college (really sounds determined doesn’t he?!)
I feel like we have been together long enough now that we should start to think about where our relationship is going. I finally asked him last week about the idea of us getting married after graduation. Of course I want to give him time to get a nice ring and plan the proposal and all, but I want us to at least be on the same page for right now. Do we have plans to get married or not? You would have thought that I asked him to get married on the spot with his reaction. He literally got up and started walking out of my room as he said that he wasn’t even ready to start thinking about marriage. He called me later that evening to say that he wanted some space. So now I guess I am just on hold while he acts like a baby and runs instead of growing up. Uh, I love him so much but I just can’t get him to make a commitment to our future together.

You will never change him. He’s content with coasting and always will be. You’re obviously unsatisfied with that. If he were ready to commit, he would have shown you that or said so. MOVE ON.
Well, I can easily see why you’re mad. Freshmen, sophomore, and junior year is a really long time to waste on someone who doesn’t want to get married. It’s why I stopped dating musicians and other artists.
Kinda want to point out to you that you really put out a disparaging remark on his choice of career though. Does he know that’s how you feel about it? Guys are a lot more intuitive on that sort of thing than you think. If he’s excited for his future and he hears his girl breaking it down to “Well, it’s just such a waste, he’s so smart and is picking a field he might not earn that much pursuing,” then I wouldn’t want to marry you either. If you do something you love, you won’t ever work a day in your life.
I’m also getting the vibe that you are sticking around just to stick around because you spent so much time on him. You guys aren’t on the same page, and if a guy isn’t even thinking about marriage after 2+ years (and reacts the way he did) then I suggest taking a deep breath and evaluating the situation. Do you really love him? Enough to sit around and wait for him to come around?
Or, of course, he might be needing his space and when he comes back around, he’ll be ready to commit. Guys are weird like that, there’s no in between.
“It is new. It is here.” It’s your future. I suggest just focusing on your degree and forget about the boy for now. He’ll either come back around or he won’t.
OP…you’re only a Junior in college…you’re what, 20? To ask a guy, who I’m assuming is also around that age, about marriage after graduation is absurd. Yes, I understand it has been two years, however it isn’t like you’re 30 and ‘wasted’ 2 years….you’re still so young. As many college relationships do lead to marriage, many don’t…why don’t you focus on YOUR future career, support his talents, and don’t take things so seriously!
I don’t blame him for running, no guy (in the midst of college/that young) is going to be receptive to that question.
Think before you speak next time.
You may need to go find somewhere else to find that Mrs. degree honey because this guy may see through you questions of asking him to get married at 20 years old.
First- you’re kind of a bitch. Your first paragraph sums that up nicely.
Second- why would you marry someone who you are not altogether happy with? You say several disparaging things about him in your second paragraph. Things that are not going to change over time. They may seem like petty annoyances now, but they will be a huge impediment to a happy marriage someday. (Trust me. I know a thing or two about marriage. I’ve been married for many years.)
Third- move on. He is obviously just interested in coasting through your relationship like he coasts through the rest of his life. You seem to want more control over your life, so he is not the right man for you.
Better luck next time.
I have to agree with Nancy. I’d also add, you do really need to evaluate exactly how you feel about this guy. When you truly love someone, you only want to see them happy. If he’s happy “coasting” then be happy for him. It sounds to me that what you envision your life to be in 10 years isn’t on the same path as him. It’s been a week. Give it a few more and see what happens. Think about how you really feel. I’m sure that question has probably got him thinking too, even if he never admits it. Patience is definitely a virtue.
SM says it is different. SM can be pretty smart sometimes.
I almost gave up after the first paragraph.
Seriously, you’re not in enough debt after college and want to spend more money you don’t have on getting married?
I’m your age, and if my boyfriend talked to me about marriage right now, I’d walk out and not come back.
If you want our sympathies, don’t attack us in your first paragraph.
That being said, I kind of feel bad for the guy. OP, I don’t know if you realize this, but it takes a very intelligent person to major in computer engineering, graphic design and animation. I’d like to see you give it a try, figuring out how to code everything. Maybe he can’t be a brain surgeon because he doesn’t deal well under stress, or perhaps just has no interest in it. I relate to the guy because I’m in a field where others not in my area of study don’t understand it’s a lot more difficult than it appears. I constantly get asked what I’m going to do after I graduate (in April) and most people ask in a condescending tone. It’s none of their business; I have a plan B if my plan A doesn’t work out. I could be in the sciences or math or engineering, but I have no real passion for it. I’m a music major and damn proud of it. On top of playing my instrument, I have to learn history, theory, orchestration, learn a second instrument for 2 years, world music, sing in a choir, play in an ensemble, take both music and non-music electives, and see at least 10 classical music concerts per year. I don’t know about other universities, but mine requires music students to take more credits per year than engineering students. So, OP, don’t turn up your nose and think he could do better because his degree isn’t what you’d pick for him. Even if he is coasting, so what?
A better way for you to have handled the situation would have been to ask where he sees the relationship going. A lot of 20-something year old males don’t want to think about marriage. If he’s been faithful and committed to you for 2 years, that’s pretty good. It shows that he’s probably a decent enough guy, just not ready for marriage.
& Nancy, not all musicians are afraid of commitment
OP, I’ve personally taken a good look at my own life, as you have suggested. You sound like a malignant pain in the ass. I am pleased that he was smart enough to not get pulled into the path of your bulldozer.
Oh yeah… eat me raw.
I second Carrie’s first.
But I need more information to get beyond that & care about your situation.
For instance, is it your perception that he is coasting because you don’t understand the commitment required for his chosen career path? Does it seem like he’s coasting because he makes it look so easy, due to how much he loves it? Does it seem like he’s coasting because he’s doing what he wants, but YOU want to marry a brain surgeon? How is he coasting?
How is he the best of a guy & the worst?
How much money is he expected to earn over his career? How much do you require your mate to earn?
OP, you sound like a cunty nag. When you say that you and your boyfriend aren’t on the same page, I think you mean he just isn’t on YOUR page, since it’s all about you, isn’t it?
So you’re boyfriend doesn’t have anything to say about plans after college. So what? Maybe he’s going to keep his options open. Let me tell you about plans after college. They don’t mean shit. And it’s a little scary right out of college. The job market sucks, no matter what field it is, so be prepared to take a job that, quite possibly, is not even in your chosen field. That’s life, Sweety. Something you haven’t really experienced yet.
It sounds like the idea of being married is more important to you than actually who you’re going to marry. Why? To keep up with the Jones’s? Are you that much of a sheep that you need to get married so quickly? But how considerate of you to give him time to buy you a nice ring. It’s all about you.
You think he’s being a baby and running away? I think he’s acting like someone who is no more than 21 years old and has his whole life in front of him and knows it. I’d run away too if I was dating a cunty nag. Go find another sucker to trap who’s willing to bow to your every wish.
Normally, I’m content to read the story and agree with the comments. I have a few things to say, however.
My father is a graphic designer. He makes a killing. A brain wasted? Far from it. Someone who is really smart is not automatically cut out for the rigors of medical school. And it can be harder to find a job as a neurosurgeon than in the computer industry. And I’m not sure that many people in medical school are going to want to put up with your nagging in addition to all their stress…
On a side note, I’m a senior in college, I’ve been with my boyfriend for 4 years. I’m hoping that we can finish our graduate work before we get married. There’s no rush, OP. If you’re happy with him, stay. If not, move on. If you require a doctor’s salary, go find one (or become one yourself, maybe?).
Anyway, sorry for sounding so cantankerous. Underneath it all, this story may have just struck a nerve, because I was a computer programming major for awhile, but it was too hard for me, and I switched to biology. And for me, biology is a lot easier, but that is definitely not the case for everyone. SM says “Protect Your Dreams.”
OP – the title of your little story here “it’s time to grow up” seems to sum up your own life.
For some reason, you chose a man that you don’t think is good enough for you but you are disgusted with him because he didn’t jump at the chance to marry you.
Color me shocked.
I’m shocked that he didn’t want a life time of “You fucked your life away. You could have been a brain surgeon. You could have made more money. You could have, you could have, you could have.”
Give me a fucking break. You are both still young. He wants to get out of school, get his career going, live his life before getting married AND THEN find a partner that loves him for the man he is and NOT the man she think he should be.
You are the one that need to examine her life. Not the rest of us.
If you think we don’t know how fucked up we are, you totally haven’t been paying attention so you can keep those two cents of yours. We don’t need them, Miss Cunty McBitch.
By the way, Oh Self Righteous One, you conveniently left out what you are majoring in. What brilliance are you bringing to the table in this dream relationship?
Maybe YOU aren’t good enough for him…..
Did this bitch just insult us in her first paragraph? Well you twat waffle…you obviously know what we are capable of saying yet you don’t go to a more respected place for advice. I think you are pretty much the problem here. He may have a brilliant mind but if this is a career he’s actually going to enjoy then embrace it. Hey bitchosaurus Rex! Have you ever heard the quote “find a career you love and you’ll never work a day in your life”? Yeah, see maybe that applies to him. If he works hard at this then he can make a decent salary off it. Which obviously you’re after those dollar signs anyway. Gold digger lookin for some blind bling so she doesn’t have to do anything but sit around and look pretty. I hope he runs, and I hope he runs far away from you. You rechet!!!
OK… I just re-read this part:
“Of course I want to give him time to get a nice ring and plan the proposal and all”
So she’s a romantic, too. A NICE ring. So what do you guys think a nice ring means to her? Like three karat diamond ring at least? And The proposal being on a well planned trip somewhere VERY expensive. Instead of a nice, simple ring and the timing be romantic?
I have to stop reading this thing. I keep seeing more shit that’s making me sad to be a woman.
I hate gold diggers.
I was also bothered by that bit, Brattus.
PAY ATTENTION YOU GOLD DIGGER
When my (now Ex) husband proposed he did it in such an old school way. It was simple and sweet. He went ahead of time and asked my dad’s permission (then my dad brought my mom in the room and he asked her). Then my dad threatened him within an inch of his life if he hurt me – my dad is awesome. He then went out and got me a nice, simple ring. He could afford it and it was beautiful. Then at a family function, he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him.
It was awesome. We eloped for the actual marriage and were married on the boardwalk at the beach. That did not please my parents but you can’t have everything.
hank you OP for posting, I am really enjoying the comments on this story. It was quite gracious of you to give me permission to say what I wanted, I was truly worried that I would have to refrain myself from being brutally honest, I truly was…
I am a person in the medical field and to assume that the only requirement for being a neurosurgeon “or something”(which is the correct terminology by the way, if you are going to gold dig and hunt for your MRS degree, at least do it properly) is being smart, is beyond asinine. You also need excellent hand-eye coordination, good reflex time, ability to work under stress 24/7, ability to not have social life and be away from your family for long periods of time, emotional capacity to professionally handle traumatic cases, and a strong tolerance for bullshit.
It appears to me, that unlike you, your boyfriend is intelligent enough to realize that his talents are better utilized in another equally challenging, demanding field that has the potential to pay just as well, without hundreds of thousands of dollars of school debt, and more flexible work hours.
Instead of focusing on him and all his supposed flaws, let’s focus on you. What exactly are YOU bringing to the table in this relationship? Are you planning to become a neurosurgeon, engineer, scientist, biologist or “something” or are you majoring in some bullshit “MRS” degree like women’s studies just until you can snag a young man who has the potential income you desire? All I am seeing from this story is that you want to be married to a rich successful man, and coast through life on his coattails. Kind of hypocritical of you, don’t you think?
You also mentioned some whiny bullshit about him not having any sort of plans laid out for himself after college. For fuck’s sake, the dude is in his early 20′s. None of us had a fucking plan laid out for what happens right after we graduated and if you do, it never works. Not even doctors know what the fuck is going to happen 7 years down the road when they graduate. If all my dreams had gone according to plan, I would have been an equine vet. The market is flooded with surplus of book smart twits who don’t have a lick of common sense and have never touched an animal before that are running around with D.V.M’s and no way to get a job. I cannot tell you how grateful I am that my pipe dream did not come to fruition.
Surprisingly enough, it’s because I was following your advice long before you were even thinking about college about taking a long hard look at my own life and seeing what I need to fix. I also have this habit of paying attention to people who do the same, and learning valuable life lessons from other people’s fuck-ups. No one here is dictating that anyone has to live or be a certain way. However, if I think the way someone is running their life is fucked up and they ask me what I think, I’m going to tell them that it’s fucked up, and if they are particularly curious, I might even explain why I think so. If they are nice, I might even refrain from being a smart ass. It’s pretty simple.
TL;DR version: Keep up your bullshit and you just might find him saying “Thank god I found out what her true intentions were before I graduated.”
I had no idea you worked in the medical field, chub. And being around horses for many years, I also know there are too many smart idiots running around with their DVMs. >.< I gave up on the vet dream when I was 10 and found out I'd have to put down animals.
Wait a minute, let me look at my own life for a minute…OK. I’m back. As it turns out, my husband and I are still happily married after 20 years, so I think I’m in a pretty good position to judge you. And, I judge you harshly.
You’re a gold digger. You want bf to grow up and pick a career that makes a lot of money, but never once do you mention what major you are pursuing in college. The only thing you seem to be pursuing is nagging your boyfriend to change his major halfway through, a big, expensive ring, and your boyfriend’s commitment to take care of your lazy butt forever.
Make the most of your time in school. Focus on your education and the career that comes next. Boyfriend has made it clear that he’s not thinking about marriage. It’s actually not time for him to grow up. It’s time for him to be young and free. But, you could stand to grow up a little bit–at least enough to realize that you don’t get to make other people’s choices for them.
If you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will fail every time. Take a step back, stop judging him based on your own ideals, and see him for who he is. You said he is very good at what he does – be proud of him. Also, slap yourself across the face for me.
I am a part time brain surgeon and it only takes an online degree from Mexico to get you a good paying job. I’ve been pulling in six digits for two years doing the crap in the tool shed behind the house. I can also put animals down for a small fuel fee. The brush guard on my F150 usually can do the trick, but fuel has started getting a bit high. You don’t always have to reach for the stars, just be creative in how you take care of business.
Women like you are why I made a point in college to pursue a lifetime commitment to NEVER knowing what I want to do with my life. I am in my 40′s and I still have no desire to grow up.
Personally, I found women like you good for one thing, anal. I like the look your face makes when you are still in pain before the pleasure sets in. It is like payback for all the guys you have tortured along the way to finding a man who can’t recognize you for what you are.
Oh and no, you cannot spend the night–get the hell out.
Mookie – I’ve always had a secret cyber crush on you but now…it’s all love baby.
HAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAH
Ha ha, wow. I was so ready with all sorts of “colorful” comments after I read this story, but I think you guys pretty much got it covered!
OP – your idiocy has made for an entertaining morning for me, so at least you’re good for that (if nothing else).
pixie – what do you play? I am also a music geek but I didn’t major in my instrument (clarinet), I did music composition.
Brattus–it is a mutual cyber-love thingy! I have missed you guys, and most of you are so supportive of others you don’t even know! My new job does not allow much time for checking in…
Hmmm…. So, you freaked him out and you’re complaining about it.
This is the future you want: To be a stay-at-home mother who wasted her parents money on college. You want your husband to be RICH, RICH, RICH. I know this because you want him to be a surgeon.
You are just another spoiled, sheltered, rich girl. I can just tell.
Mookie, dearest, may I join in the cyber-lovefest with you and Brattus? (Brattus already knows I adore her
)
Hey, Princess Spoiled Bitch (aka OP) : I applaud your boyfriend for seeing your true colors finally and walking the hell out on you. If he’s TRULY smart, the ditching is a permanent thing. I can’t imagine why any guy would want to be with someone who has made it clear that she thinks his career choice is not and never will be good enough for her. I too would like to see just what the hell YOUR field of study is. What are YOUR plans for utilizing your education? Hmmm?
I can picture you right now. Mommy and Daddy raised you on Princess parties and “Toddlers and Tiaras”-type pageants.Your Mommy told you shit like “It’s better to love a Rich man.” Your future self-worth is predicated upon a wealthy husband, the country-club, and being named Queen of the Homeowners’ Association of your McMansion subdivision. Your dreams probably entail the ability to afford multiple plastic surgeries so you can be “beautiful FOREVER, like OMG!!!” You are probably one of those dumbass bimbos that fill your Facebook page with bathroom-mirror-reflection pics.
Take a look at my life? My life is just dandy, thankyouverymuchbitch!
Jump on in Twisty!
PS I hate women like the OP. You attempted to set the narrative, by addressing all of us first. What you failed to realize is that we don’t care, and there is typically more than an ounce of truth with what we say. You feel like he doesn’t give it his all? Who are you to say what his “all” is? Also, what gives you the right to dictate how much of an effort he should be giving? Does he criticize your mouth-hugging skills, or does he simply put his hand behind his head and think “well at least her mouth is full so I don’t have to listen to her bitchin at me right now”.
I used to see a shrink, we once had a conversation about how I have always been labeled an “underachiever”. He looked me in the eye and said “I would rather be an underachiever than an overachiever. An overachiever has peaked and will never be able to do any better, while your potential remains unlimited.” Brilliant.
Ohhh a cyber threesome. Pure. Awesome.
Mookie – you know good and god damn well this bitch isn’t giving mouth hugs. LOL Which leads me to point #2. For women like her, when you give them the reserved anal – don’t let it get to the part of pleasure. Let go when it’s still in the pain mode. It’s only fair.
I love your shrink, too. I used to be an over achiever. you know what happens when you do that shit? All you have to look forward to is failure and letting people down. Now, I do what I want when I want. It’s a great way to live.
As for the douche juice that we have all be wasting our time with today, she’s going to be a cold prissy bitch that will marry young and have a bunch of babies quickly so she can cash in OR that will end up knocked up by some rich guy so she can always get a paycheck. It’s just going to happen. I can see it now.
Lotus: I’m a flute player. Sometimes I wonder why I chose this instrument, but then am quickly reminded when I see my friends carrying some of their instruments (especially if it’s my double bass friend or baritone sax friend).
Mookie….I may love you a little too. I picture you being a tall burly manly man with a beard who you just want to get a big bear hug from. But maybe that’s just me.
@pixie: Hallelujah! Maybe I just need to start dating the ones that aren’t asshats in fedoras then!
All these creative insults from everyone are kind of turning me on…
We love you too, chubwub.
2 years isn’t that long, I’ve been with my other half for almost 6 years and we only just started thinking about settling down..You shouldn’t rush into something like marriage so quickly but that’s my personal opinion so whatever..
Hey, does anyone else remember the scene in Animal House when the prissy rich bitch wears a rubber glove to jack off her douchebag boyfriend? I think that’s this OP’s grandma.
I just want to say that two years is not that long and college means you’re a lot younger, dumber, and more poor than you think you are. But you’ll realize that for yourself once you grow up, get a job, pay for your first apartment, wake up early for work every single day, etc….IF you ever do grow up that is. I thought I knew who I was in college and to be honest I wasn’t super far off the mark. But once you get up and are forced to grow up a little more, things really do change. I’m not going to bash you as harshly as everybody else, but I just can tell from your story you have a lot more growing up to do than you think. And honestly, if this kid isn’t ready for you, so what? Get out of college, live a little, then decide in a few years what you want. I’m 25 and have been with my 30 year old boyfriend for 3 years now and I don’t see any point in rushing anything. Honestly, I’m also happy to live in a tiny apartment in the middle of the city, work at a big firm, save a lot of money, and be pretty care free for the time being. I’m glad I’m not driving home everyday to the suburbs, paying for day care and a mortgage, etc. Enjoy the freedom while you have it. You’ll eventually find the right guy but it doesn’t have to be this one and you don’t need a ring within the year, believe it or not. Good luck! ( and stop being a snob. Nobody likes snobs).
You need to take these people’s advice and reevaluate YOURSELF because my god you are such an awful narcissistic brat. Honestly. Read these comments 100 times over and be open minded about what they’re saying and how it just might be true!
First of all, putting people down and saying that their advise sucks before asking them for an advise is never a good idea.
“He produces amazing work and is really excited about starting his career, but I just feel like he has more potential.”- I read “He is excited about starting his career, but I just feel like he is not going to make enough money for me to live off”
“He could be a brain surgeon or something and instead he is going to work in an industry that doesn’t always promise good money.” I read “I could be a brain surgeon’s wife, but instead he is choosing what HE wants to do. What a selfish asshole.”
“Of course I want to give him time to get a nice ring and plan the proposal and all…” I read “Ofcourse its a given that I deserve a huge rock comparable to Angelina Jolie’s and all, so he better become a surgeon.”
Let me guess, you majored in public relations, right?
Second, by “more potential” it seems like you mean “more potential to make you money”. He is excited about starting his career, but you aren’It appears that all you care about is a nice ring, and a
This passive aggressive cunt is a perfect example of why I avoid relationships. Why pay a cunty, passive aggressive cow for milk I can get for free from multiple pretty cows whose passive aggressive cunty bullshit I am NOT required to tolerate?
Leave the cow.
There’s free milk everywhere.
Honey, you are the literal definition of crazy psychotic girlfriend. And did you even look up what computer engineers’ salaries are by the way??? I am also a computer engineering major which is why I was surprised that you thought it wasn’t enough, but if you did look it up and still think it’s not enough then I would see a therapist for your serious greed issues before you become a klepto… Seriously have fun with eating your words in ten years when he’s off spoiling his wife with luxury, and don’t forget I don’t like onions on my Big Mac(:
Wow, you sure are stuck on yourself!!!

You are definitely a bitch, your first paragraph summed that up. You don’t have any idea of what a real relationship is, he is obviously doing what he wants to do with his life, and all you seem interested in is how much money can he make to spend on you. I have been in a relationship for many years with the same man and it doesn’t matter how much money he makes to spend on you or for you to spend, but what matters is how much you two love each other. You obviously don’t love him or would support his choices even if you don’t agree with them. You discuss them and you can give your opinion, but you definitely don’t support him the way a spouse would if he were to marry you, I guarantee that he senses it and he is not ready to marry someone like you because he would be miserable.
