I know exactly what you're feeling, it's a gut shot. Hang in there man.

What are you crying about, she did you a favor. Why would you want to get married? Just find a girl you hate, and buy her a house. The end result will be the same.

Just dont take off on women until the spring, there is a lot of fresh tail at every turn. My grandfather used to say "everything happens for a reason" which he applied in all facets...including racing. You will learn from your handicapping mis steps today and you will find a girl even better than this other chick.

I like the advice about the horses. No matter what, the ponies will always be there for you. They will never talk back to you, they will never make you go to a stupid movie--all they want is for you to watch them race. Good luck man and a new year is right around the corner.

Great point! Reminds me of the 2003 ALCS Red Sox/Yankees game 7...Boone hits the homer, and me as a Sox fan, am just depressed. However, flipped right over to TVG and caught the end of "The Quarters". Not a fan of QHR, but seeing the ponies lightened my mood...a little!

Ive been getting killed on everything from NY to TX(Sam Houston) the past few weeks.
just brought home the top 2 finishers in the Japan Cup Dirt including the $36 winner.
Life is good again.
dont worry about the girl wac.
there are lots of girls out there, but we only get one chance to play each race.
I'll take a good day at the track over a good night with a girl any day of the week.

I hope wac doesn't follow this advice. to me a good night with a girl is always better than a day at the track.

there are hundreds of races to play each day, how many chances in your life will you have at landing that perfect girl? it would be a shame to miss that chance because you were playing a PK3 at Mountaineer.

did she completely shoot the idea down? i mean as far as in the future? was it a never answer, or i'm not ready right now? if she said not now, than i see no reason for an ending....if she is not interested ever, than it's good that you asked now, rather than say three years down the road.
i'm a firm believer in happy endings. if she isn't the one, someone else will be.
and of course there's no way to lessen the pain, you have to 'mourn' and then move on. er, unlike one guy around here that is....
good luck, be patient til the pain goes away.

That's actually pretty funny, probably because it's true for at least 25% of guys. So many couples end up that way--Fanof's advice would save a lot of heartache along the way. But if you take your time and use a little reason, it doesn't have to be that way.

Hooves, ArlJim, Suffolk, and Danzig have already provided excellent advice/support. Re-read those posts.

Marriage is a form of addiction.It's the one addiction that is encouraged by society.

This is good news! Most chicks are all about getting hitched, be thankful yours isnt! Something tells me she will be there for you when she is ready.

PS You need to invite all of us posting in this thready to the wedding and do your best to make sure its open bar
