So...I guess my burning question is....If you have your pilots license, WHY the five hour DRIVE?? :)
Lol, sorry... she was the one who made the drive.
And avgas costs almost $6 a gallon where I live!  | |

Obviously you knew from the very begining who she was in your short relationship and she showed you nothing but that side of her from your description. So yes, you did have the relationship examined as it is a crucial part of the story. You keep saying she is narcissistic and yet you thought giving her a call the night before you flew she would react any different? Not even 24 hours notice? Heck, I am not good with mornings and I seldom drink. Was she out drinking when she agreed to this? Does any of that matter? You said
Decided I had smartened up to her m.o. and took off. END of book...not sure what you meant by took off as you said
She left on her birthday (dinner cost me $200 for us plus two friends), shaken up from a court-related phone call down in CA (something else she'd been eluding), claiming that she "couldn't do this anymore" and that I "just don't get it." Apparently, I hadn't paid her enough attention at dinner (she had been talking with our friend's girlfriend and mostly indifferent to me the whole time), and that tipped her over the edge. She slept on the couch, and was gone in the morning.
See I read some narcissism with you. The mention of the cost of the dinner prior to mentioning how she was shaken up and wanted support. You say she was indifferent to you, who knows, her friend could have been offering her the support that she wanted from you. Does any of that seem to deserve her items being thrown out of a plane? Thrown away ok...
Honestly, if this is how you react when you know a person and what their MO is, what happens when something bigger happens like cars cutting you off on the road, a jerk spilling a beer on you, or a real relationship where the other person does do something like is caught in your bed with a man? Maybe you aren't able to see the big picture that how you react over something that was created by you is just the begining, what will you do to top yourself?
I agree she sounds like someone that was a thrill to be around because she didn't hang all over you etc. I agree she probably needs counseling. I agree that this would be a wonderful scene in a movie. I am wondering now if maybe I am wrong about your posting this, maybe you did want a verbal butt spanking so you could get back on the right track. (You have a fabulous use of the English language and writing skills.) But I can't agree that you didn't ask for her actions so that you could do this... | |

Just thought I would throw this in - I would think the answer is somewhat obvious. When you land at the airport, how do you get to the town? You would have to rent a car, so he just drove. Do I win a cookie?????
Good question. While I'll usually call a cab or hitch a ride if I'm not meeting a friend, some airports keep a pilots' "courtesy car" just for this purpose. If you're lucky, it's a 1984 LeSabre with 319k miles, cigarette burns in the headliner, and tires balder than Homer Simpson.  | |

I don't think the opinion of desperately single middleaged women is anything to worry about to be honest. What do they know about relationships?
The first 3 words of that quote seem to be all too true

Posted: 9/3/2008 7:20:08 AM | Just a litte, but I think the mature thing to do was to leave the box of her belongings with someone at the airport and then leave it up to her to decide if she wants to come and pick them up, or not. Tossing them out of a plane is littering and if everyone did that, sheesh, our environment is already full of junk, we really don't need any more. You could have donated them to a thrift store, or just tossed them in the dumpster instead, oh well. Maybe some women leave their belongings behind as a reminder that they once were there.

Posted: 9/3/2008 7:45:35 AM | | Good on you, sorry i know it was cruel but she was acting like that she deserved it. She obviously thought she could swear at you and treat you that way after you just flew to take her stuff back to her (Which you actually didnt have to do she could of got to you to get it or sent you the money to send it). To those who say its "Childish" - This girl expected this guy to fly to take these things to her (Which obviously must of cost him in fuel ect) and didnt meet him up when they had agreed, he did the right thing and phoned her and she hadnt even botherd to make a effort to meet him. Sounds to me like this girl was trying to punish this guy by making him wait. Not only that but when he said a rational way to solve it she swore at him and called him names, so obviously her plan was going to fail. Good on you i say and good riddence to bad rubish! | |

She expected nothing. He called her and said he was coming to visist his father, and in the process bring her things (which she hadnt worried about for months)
Sounds to me like this girl was trying to punish this guy by making him wait.
Punish him? No he punished her by not being all hot and sweaty waiting for him to get there. She was long past him, given the fact she didnt bother getting in touch for her things. And she hasnt called him since. so has no idea what he even did with her things.....therefore his need to come on a forum and let the world know of his GRAND PLAN.. She's past him.......now he needs to get past her.
The thing is....his act of vengence didnt work.....she doesnt even know what he did with her things. Since the incident she hasnt even bother to get in touch to find out where her things are. SHE IS SOOOOOOOOOOO PAST HIM. | |

Posted: 10/8/2008 5:07:56 PM | 1) An American who tosses clothes and personal belongings out of an aircraft is calling me an ignorant blowhard. Yeah, I thought it was kind of funny in a farcical way.
2) You asked for opinions, and you were given opinions. Yet, you've posted "smart" assed responses to everyone who isn't giving you the thumbs up. Perhaps you shouldn't have composed the title of this thread as a question.
Based on your alleged actions, I can tell you have an ego. Based on your responses, I can tell it's a big one. Big egos usually stem from inadequacies else where if you follow what I'm saying. I'm not going to speculate on the dimensions of your genitalia, but what I can speak on with relative confidence is, your inadequacy in the common sense department.
Some day when you grow up, you'll wish you knew an eighth of what I know. Until then, you know the square root of **** all, little boy. | |
