2 years....gone. Isn't Valentine's Day great?

EDIT: Who the hell wants PinkVo?

That sucks, how much for pink vo?

Really man, 2 years is a good amount of time, any good reasons for the breakup?

gtxracer · 01:11 AM

Last week she just told me she needed space and then today she told me she's "not in love with me anymore."

Whoever wants PinkVo, just send me a PM with an offer. I just want it out of here. Oh, and my laptop just died, as did my Xbox 360. I still haven't bought another XBox and I don't know if I will be able to afford one right now, not to mention a laptop. I got a warranty on it but I'm not sure how long it will take to get it back. I guess I'll be going to the library and using my new LG Voyager to do all my computer stuff. My PSP works too....ugh.

Sorry to hear man, how old are you? Sometime things like this, although difficult, can be for the best. Even two years is better than 3 or 4. It is difficult to move on when you have spent alot of time with someone, but look at the good times you had, and try to learn from the bad ones.

I'm 21. The hard drive died in the laptop. Thanks for the kind words guys, the support here is amazing. I know I did some things wrong and we've had our bumps but I didn't think I deserved this. Things were going better than ever and then she just up and left me. I talked to my dad about all this and he gave me some good advise, as usual. We'll see how this plays out.

I can't help with the other things but what's the laptop doing?

02.15.2008, 01:24 AM

Sorry to hear about the breakup, but I thought things usually happen in 3's?

oh god don't say that!!! wait... oh yeah. i'm not in a relationship. WHEW. hee hee.

seriously, sorry to hear that gtxracer. and could she have picked a more insensitive time of year to end this?! i was going to say she may take some time and realize she had a great thing with you, but i wouldn't want someone back who's that cold!

What kinda harddrive is it..pata or sata. I have 1 of each laying around. Do u care what capacity it is? Otherwise you can have it.

LincPimp said it right...learn from the badones and don't forget the good times. Makes you stronger brother.

Remember that its a laptop nd probably has a 2.5 enclosure. (I think, never learned what size they were but I have a 320MB drive with windows 95 preinstalled if you want. :P

snellemin · 02.15.2008, 09:25 AM

I have a 40gb 2.5" pata drive and a 80gb 2.5" sata drive. Just checked.

BP-Revo · 02.15.2008, 02:36 AM

Yeah I had the same thing happen to my laptop, it sucked. Now I don't do anything computer related without at least one pair of harddrives in a Mirrored RAID array to safely store my important stuff.

About the girl, sorry to hear. If I have to say something, its that people grow drastically between 15 and 25, and still grow a lot after that usually. Its quite hard to find the right one that early. Don't beat yourself up over it too much. Apparently it wasn't meant to be. You didn't do anything wrong.

However, the sudden dismissal is an eyebrow lifter. Was the relationship slowing or anything before that?

02.15.2008, 02:50 AM

hey man sorry to hear bout ur plight. sadly enough my ex said the exact same thing to me too, and i mean the exact same thing to the T, except mine was @ thanksgivings. then 2 weeks later i hear she is seeing some guy, go figure. hope it all works out for ya man, and sucks that everything else isnt working out.

BP-Revo · 02.15.2008, 04:33 AM

Laptops do use a 2.5" drive as opposed to the otherwise 3.5" standard. There are some 5.25" drives out there though, not sure if they are made anymore. They were known as "big foot" drives if I recall...

I actually bought a Laptop HD and a 2.5" enclosure to make myself a portable hard drive. Its nice and handy - plugs in via 2 USB ports (the second one is for extra power) and is 60gb. I could have easily gotten more capacity but I didn't need it and decided to save the money for something better (like RC!).
