We need to talk
Posted: 6/16/2008 12:12:00 PM
Thanks a lot for your replies guys.I did see the guy and he said he had never heard those words being used to anticipate a breakup...damn Europeans , If only I weren't one of them too:).
He did have something heavy to tell me. He applied for a viza extention and in case he will be denied, he has to go back to his country at the end of the summer. The response is in two weeks so I guess there's another " we need to talk" on the way. Whether it means breakup or not, I agree , it's seldom good news.

Well since the deadlines already passed - it's a break up 99% of the time. Also I want to know what happened too!

To "I hate sports" :
I changed my profile as much as I could to state I was unavailable , deleted all favorites and previous emails.Also I was under the impression that by hiding your profile no one can actually see it, I'm surprised it didn't work...

LOL...that probably when the marriage request will come. Sounds like he wants to stay - whether because of you or other reasons, time will tell.

Good luck,

Wow...boy did you luck out! I hope he gets the extension! And really cool of him to give you a heads up about it.

I swear, I actually felt anxiety for you over this... dam* nerves! Those little words strike such fear in me!

Thanks kayliecat, I'm really worried too. I haven't felt chemestry on so many levels in a long time. The relationship is pretty fresh though so I'm trying to maintain a neutral position about the posibility of him leaving. I do think about it all the time now...

Is there any chance in hell the " we need to talk " line doesn't mean "I wanna break up with you"?


About as much chance as "You're a really nice guy" not being immediately followed be "I wanna break up with you" ...

I'm late on replying but glad things worked out. I've used the term many times myself when I have something important to tell my partner. But you guys are right, it is usually followed by bad or heavy news...and yes, at least he had the decency to tell you the bad news in person! Sounds like a good guy to me.

Well OP there's nothing either one of you can do at this point it's a matter of playing the waiting game and hope for the best.

In respects to your profile and the comment that keeps getting thrown around like yesterday's news, "if you're not single why are you on a dating site"? People just don't get it. They mistaken participating in the forums only and being an active member searching for an SO. Ignore that because everyone has their own opinions on that and sometimes it's like banging your head against a brick wall with some people. Even though your profile is hidden (like mine) there's nothing to stop others by seeing your profile throughout the forums. Your profile is only hidden throughout people's searches but not here in the forums. Nothing you can do about that either.

Well OP I hope everything works out for the both of you. Keep us posted and good luck!

I couldent help but shudder just seeing these words lol....the most feared/hated words known to men and women alike....

Prep yourself for the worst, hope for the best - all you can really do - I hope it's not what you fear it is.

not always, it could be something different. Just wait and be patient with whatever reply it will be. It could be just be kind to him, but it doesn't always been.

My least favorite expression. I'd rather the person just go ahead and begin talking.

Just toodling along...reading all the posts. Holding my breath...knowing full well the phrase could mean absolutely anything/all that had been mentioned here. Then, hearing the news. Sucking in my breath thinking....oh my...there's the possibility of a wedding in the future here (but hoping for the right reason)...Then...

Out of the blue comes the post from someone who says they dated the guy as well and he's no good.

My corn flakes are all soggy now!

Op...I hope all works out for the best for you.

It is the most dreaded phrase isn't it!! Even in a non dating situation it makes you heart drop to your stomach! Sometime I say in a joking manner "give me a hint is it good or bad" I think it's normal to think the worst and it usually is !!

I heard that shit before and it pisses me off, but yet I talk about because I don't like running from problems and it gets talked about.

I'm thinking he's gonna confess something which he suspects you were about to find out any way, which is why he has to tell you first, hoping to minimize the anger...

Men never say "we need to talk" unless they did something wrong and are about to be busted.

No one can take your dignity, unless you choose to give it away! A man doesn't make You! Therefore a Man can't break You!
Keep your head up and thank him for letting you know that he just wasn't the one ment for YOU! Now your Free to find the one that is! So don't waste your time rehashing yesterday's of wrong and unfullfilling men! Head and eye's on the horizon...or you just might miss MR RIGHT for YOU!
