And the shows just serve as a reminder of the cruel, hurtful things people do in relationships, and it does tie in to what happened with that girl, and especially upsetting is that next week is the 5th anniversary of when she and I first began corresponding. She wasn't always like that. She was a great person up until she called me weak, based on one instance where I asked for advice.

you need to move on.

Maury is good as a method of birth control, aside from that...not worth looking into. :/

Yeah, I'm tired of arguing, too. I feel like I'm talking to a wall at this point.

I can't. I just want her to change, and come back, and for things to be like they were at the beginning.

Never hang your happiness on someone else changing, because you will be disappointed.

And remember that those TV shows pick, intentionally, the worst of the worst so that everyone can laugh at the fools on TV and feel better about themselves. If you are letting fools on TV upset you, you should, as others have noted, turn off the TV. That stuff isn't real and not in the least bit representative.

I don't understand.

How would I not be a good partner for her? What did I do wrong?

I did not deserve to be called weak, lacking in direction, unable to communicate, or unmotivated, simply because I did not do things exactly the way she did. How does asking for advice signify a lack of direction, or lack of motivation? How does needing emotional support make someone unstable? How does waiting to see if she will move to a city near me constitute lack of direction (when it was left entirely to chance, with nothing I could have done on my end--and when she said she would do a relationship if she moved to city X, but not city Y)?

right, you are giving a bunch of reasons why you should be glad that you are not with her anymore.

The above comment would suggest why you wouldn't be right for her.
It would also address why she wouldn't be right for you.

As for Maury Povich show? It's your call but I wouldn't turn to a show like that to figure out my own relationship woes.

It's for the best , not giving a $%^IT about anything has it's advantages.

Maury? That show's as fake as wrestling!

This is what attracted me to her:

1. She was an Aspie

2. She had the same interests as me (Simpsons, South Park, indie films). People with those interests have higher sex drives than people who don't. Asking "Do you like the Simpsons and South Park?" really means "Do you want to come to my place and fornicate?"

3. She was a Christian.

4. She liked to travel.

5. She was college-educated/career-oriented.

I even gave up my dream of eventually starting a family for her (she didn't want kids).

Only in your universe.
For everyone else, it is a question about television viewing preferences.

Yes, Tim_Tex, I have to agree with Who_Am_I. I'd be horrified to understand that someone was using what they thought was "code" with me. If you ask me if I like South Park and the Simpsons and all that, I'd assume you were asking me about those TV shows. If I watched them with you and you put moves on me (only) through your false assumptions, I'd hit the bricks and not look back.

I'm not sure where you get this correlation, but I encourage you to abandon it.
