From what I see, she's never had a boyfriend before and most likely she's scared to have one or to get in an emotional relationship. I really think she's confused because the feelings she has, she might not have ever felt before this making run away. Give it time but not too much time. She needs to get her head settled and she'll figure things out.

i spent a lot on her because i never had a gf... and i figured since i never spent a dime on a girl, i could spend some on this gal.. i guess i just wanted to make up some time lost..

But some people just aren't meant to be together. I've always been a firm believer that chemistry isn't something that can grow on two people over time; it's either there in the beginning or it's not. If it isn't, it's not anyone's fault, that's just how things work out.

Besides, if you're keeping track of how much money you spend on someone, then something isn't right to begin with.


this is very true....

I think the chemistry just wasn't there, but she is being sincere with you
about everything.
Evaluating how much money you spent doesn't look good. It was your
decision to spend it, and thus shows even more how much
you are obviously in love with her and care for her and wanted this to
work out.

To be honest, it doesn't sound like it will work out, and instead of being bitter
about it, just move on.
Love sucks, and chemistry can't be made to happen.

You learn from these things and become an even better person from it.
You may be very cautious next time around with someone new, but thats normal.

You'll find the right one...she obviously is not the one.

Good luck with it....


you are right... i liked her a lot and i wanted this to work out sooo badly.. you don't know how badly i wnated it to work out..... in the back of my mind, i knew somethign was a little off, but i was willing to work out the complications......

and yes, i'll be very cautious next time..

This line especially highlights it for me:

I already knew, before you told me, that you
would do anything for me, which made staying with you even more
appealing. It amazed me that someone can actually like me that much
and I liked that (not that I'd ever had the intention of telling you
to do stuff for me).

Sucks but women, or at least the ones I have known would rather have someone who isn't all "into" them and the saying about the a-holes getting the women is generally true unfortunately...sorry man

i honeslty don't know why a-holes get all the girls and win... why do nice guys finish last? so unfair.

I think to put it simply you fvcking suck when it comes to dealing with women and money. Why would you dump 2k into a girl when you have no guarantee that she will go out with you. When you two are still in the friend stage ie. before you're officially going out, showering her with gifts is more "creepy" than "romantic". In addition, when you start giving her more and more things, it becomes a little mundane and no longer interesting, u just end up becoming the creepy stalker guy that keeps giving the girl things. And obviously you forced the relationship into something it's not and luckily, for both of you, the girl decided to call it off before it was too late. Live and learn, keep your wallet closer and the women farther.

Taiwanese.

Sorry to tell you this, but this is a common occurance with asian women. Being asian myself and seeing it happen many times I've personally decided to stay away from asian women because of this. Live and learn, face that you were strung along. And if you've got the asian kink, realize there are still a few billion of us out there.

i guess this is a bright way to look at it, but it's hard..... i like HER for who she is and other women just dont' measure up to what i like about her....

This sounded like your first real experience. You get a mulligan learn from your mistakes and try again. You live in SoCal man the hotbed of Asian females should'nt be that hard. You think you'll never find the girl that measures up to her but you will. Its happened to almost everyone then bam out of nowhere you find the right girl. And if your looking for some hunnies check out the new DNB in Arcadia ohhhhh yah lots of eye candy.

why you would spend any money on her before you hit it is beyond me.

Money does not buy love.

Being the nice guy != creating attraction


well.....these are lessons learned for you I hope...

move on......plenty more out there.

p.s. dont be such a wuss bag next time.

#1 - You were too nice.... sickening sweet
#2 - She had you by the balls so bad that there was absolutley NO thrill of the chase
Doesn't matter. That whole "Tao of Steve" thing is a myth. If a girl's not attracted to you it makes no difference how you act. If you're nice, you get used; if you're not nice, you just disappear. OTOH, if a girl thinks you're hot, you can be a complete asshole and she'll find some way to romanticize it - that's where that whole "thrill of the chase" BS comes from. I've always been convinced that women care about looks a lot more than they claim to - and that letter pretty much screams "I tried to like you but you're just not good-looking enough for me.".

Good call. Try to win her over with money and gifts. That's a great relationship builder. Then when you get turned down, post her private email to the world which is going to get cached into google and the archives.

No, there's no possibility. Well, maybe if you were the last two people on the planet you might have a chance.

BTW-I kissed my now wife on our second date and I think I had maybe $40 invested in the relationship at that point.

dude, i'm not trying to be harsh on you, but this just sounds pathetic. 4 months and you didnt even kiss her?!? and you are 22? have you ever even kissed a girl? it's probably better you DIDNT kiss her because you would have probably asked her to marry you after your first kiss.

i don't know if it's worse that you spent 2k on her, not being your gf even, or that you kept track of how much money you spent.
