| Dear Stephen B.
I have read your first thread, and reading this one, your posts of explaining yourself and your thoughts on the matter have impressed me, especially for your age(23 was it, am I right?). Im 21 and have been in this same situation, noticing the same things you do, analyzing the exact same way you did, came to the same conclusions of slutty acts, and mine hid it from everyone,however opened up to me after digging trough, and she admitted nobody has asked her questions like I did. Our texting goes the same way, im the last to know, and if I talk to her about it, ill just get a stupid I dont know why I'm like this answer, etc, don't want you to be mad etc.
After reading your post, I realize we see ourselves as very high value men, I atleast do, and won't settle for anything less then our requirements, we want the diamonds in the dirt that haven't been found/used. I dumped this one straight, just today! Told her done playing games, and she understood me, and we left it at there, straight No Contact now, not to get her back, but for me to allow all these feelings to sink in and stop myself from going crazy over analyzing everything. Time to move on, and find that diamond that i've been looking for, all the while focussing on the other important stuff in life, which is improving yourself academically,financially, physically and mentally.
Its true that if this were a fuckbuddy relationship it wouldn't bother as much, however as I did, you have invested alot in this ,and thats why its hard to let go, because you want to protect your investment. I have many posts/threads that will be very interesting for you to read, and if you want to chat about it, please pm me, I have the feeling we can share a lot.
Also thanks to the other posters, zmcb, your words also hold true, in which where you said
" Now, I don't want to sound mean, but I highly doubt you will act on those reasons/or the decisions you're contemplating. What will happen instead is most likely she will continue to withdraw and you will continue to try to make it work, while blaming her, and becoming more and more insecure, and eventually it will all come to a whimpering end."
I have done exactly this, and now its come to an end, don't regret it as much tho, because I know what I did wrong(atleast I think, became to available as you say). I've tried to fix it, all the while blaming her, and I actually feel sorry for making her go trough this. This has been a nice experience, and time to move onto better ones.
Good luck and thanks all.
