Someone you cant have

What do you do when there is someone who you cant have, besides trying to have them anyways. What do you do? Mope? Drink? Sacrifice a bull to the break-up gods? Just get over it? Write in your live journal?

Sigh, pine for a bit, smoke a good cigar, and then move on to someone else.

Depends on how bad you want them. Fight for it or get over it.

Last time it happened to me I think I did everything you mentioned (minus the bit about the bull) and then some once I realised fighting was getting me nowhere.

Now it's time to get over it...

I kill their cherished family pets.

i typically pine and try to find something to occupy my mind until it finally sinks in that there's no point in wanting that person anymore. what really sucks is that i tend to only like girls that i know i cant have.

boil them, maybe? especially bigfat white bunnies?

How many billion people on this planet? I mean, yeah, I've done probably more than my fair share of pining, but not any more. I swing, swing twice...If I miss I go on. No room for that shit anymore. Life's too short to spend it worrying and moaning about someone who's inaccesible. I've got things to do. Only thing that completes me, is me. It's nice to share a life with someone, but I have to have a life to share. If person 'a' doesn't want it...I'll find someone else. No hard feelings. How many billion people on this planet?

Odds are, I'll find someone else.

Steal some of their dna and create a clone of them to have all to yourself. Of course I have no idea how you're gonna replicate their memories or brain patterns so their clone will never be quite t he same.

I call up this bitch I hate, sometimes she tells me to fuck off, but more often than not she tells me to come over. I get over to her place we start fighting over some innane bullshit then fuck each other stupid. Then when she regains her senses, she starts cursing and throws me out making sure to tell me to never call her again. Usually after that I feel fine about not being able to have the girl I really wanted because she might be like that crazy bitch.

I inevitably encounter another of the 6.5 billion+ or so people alive. If they are as or more compelling than the unattainable one I will usually attempt to focus my attention and affection on them. Rinse, then repeat.

Build a hump doll, draw her face on a paper plate and string it to the 'head'.

I just drink and mope... and sleeping pills, thank god for sleeping pills.

I know it sounds lame, but it's been a year and I still pine every once in a while...

The best way to get over it is to get under someone else. I haven't met anyone else since her to pine for...

There are always little things about people that annoy you. no matter who they are. Your family, your closest friends, even your crushes. But you look past them because you like the person. So when I realize it's not going to happen with someone, I stop looking past them. I separate myself from them for a while and just focus on the things about them that piss me off. After about a week, I'm pretty much over them.

Only down side is, sometimes it works too well and you might end up hating them for a while. And if they're still in your life, that could be a problem.

same and ditto. it can be a real bitch.

Ignore it. Then, mope when I can't ignore it. That leads to drinking which leads to sleeping. Then, I wake up the next day and repeat.

learn to hate them for that fact

Have sex with an ex to validate that I've still got it

Be friends or discover they were lame anyway.

find someone else

Listen to lots of Connor Oberst and think about killing yourself?

No, first i try to figure out a way to have them. Then, if it is really impossible, i move on. Spend more time here. Eat ice cream, watch aquateen hunger force.

Do what I did last night...

find someone younger, better looking and eager to please.

Roll 'em up in a carpet and throw them off a bridge!

Tee hee hee!

Fantasize about them while I masturbate. And then tell them about it. I have no shame.

me too, it is amazing to me how many hot 22-25 year olds are willing to sleep with me.
