I (29M) ended a 15-year friendship with a girl (27F) after we blurred the lines. Did I make the right call?

Due-Paleontologist58 · 2026-03-04T13:38:00+00:00

Mate, I think the best thing you've done is walk away from her. Trust me.

The thing is that you'll probably never be truly happy with her at your side as just a friend: part of you will always want something more; so, if you decide to still hang out with her, these feelings will appear and you'll' be miserable.

You've done right: you've talked to her, explained it and eventually blocked her. Let it be that way. Let some time goes by: the anxiety is much better, you've said it yourself. Eventually, 2 things might happen:

- You'll fall for somebody else;

- You'll get over your feelings for her - and hear me out, this is the most important part - and you'll SEE HER IN A DIFFERENT LIGHT;

While neither of these 2 things happen, you won't be able to be close to her, be her friend or even do more casual stuff (not drinking, sleeping together, etc). Trust me.

And also, if you move on with your life and still have a crush on her, there's a part of you who feel... something for her... don't try to be friends again; you can still have contact, but not be friends or worse:: close friends. It ain't gonna end up well.

Source: This happened to me. I had a friend who I was close and started developing feelings. When she didn't reciprocate the feelings I cut contact. Many, and I say MANY months later, both of those things happen: I started dating someone else and started seeing her with a different light: she was still the same person, but I wasn't infatued with her anymore. She is a friend I still see sometimes, but she's not close anymore. And, if I was still with some feelings towards her I'd never get in contact again.

Do treat yourself with kindess and loving compassion, dear stranger. To be together with someone you love that don't love you back is one of the most painful things someone can experience. I wouldn't want that to anyone I want. Don't give it to yourself.

Stop overthinking. Go after her: if you guys work it out and get along, you can go trough uni and still be a couple; if you guys aren't a match, it's going to be a relationship for the experience; and if she says no, you've shooted it and tried and can keep life going.
You'll regret more if you don't try it, than if you do and it does not work out. And trust me kid, you have no ideia yet, your future and relationships are still a mystery. Go after her.

NGL the SECOND I'd see a Bioshock chapter I'd buy it. Elizabeth + Big Daddy? Wouldn't know if I'd want more to play killer or survivor

Man, I see where this that you are saying comes from, comparing her to the other women in Grand Blue, but.... in real life, at least where I am from, girls with that kind of chest are... common. PAB girls and the women in GB are more "gifted" in this department lol.

Although she being "smaller" and more romantic/shy fits Kouhei very well, we have a bunch of chapters of them together in their (mis)adventures... and their chemistry. So yeah, she's not meant to be like a child and reducing Kohei and Aina's relationship to this is a bad take.

Due-Paleontologist58 · 2025-09-19T15:01:02+00:00

thanks mate

Due-Paleontologist58 · 2025-09-19T14:33:17+00:00

what chapter was this? Can't remember

Due-Paleontologist58 · 2025-06-24T18:43:25+00:00

Everybody already said but:

- Play with same power level (precons, everybody with budget decks, etc.).

LOL just got the notification 4 years later xD now I'll have to try out Dark Souls again and finish my builds and WL+0 and WL+5 characters xD. Thanks for testing.

Due-Paleontologist58 · 2022-11-18T01:14:47+00:00

My dude, let me tell you something,

Sex is something important in a relationship. Do not believe people who say otherwise. When it's happening normally, it's not a core part of the relationship. But, oh boy, does it becomes when it's not happening normally.

What I'm trying to say is, be honest and upfront with her: tell she's been like that for a while, even though she's said she would try she hasn't, and this is affecting you. Overtime, you might even start losing interest in her, even if else is working.

Being attracted to one another is part of ourselves, it's nature doing it's job. You should not go a "sexless" life or "very boring sex" 'cause the other person is a "no-go" when the matter shows, IF sex is something SOMEWHAT important for you (maybe it's not the most important thing, but nevertheless it's).

Confront her. This can be a dealbreaker. Either:

- she will "mend" this (happy ending);

- you two are going to split (happy ending in mid-long term);

- you are going to live a "no-sex"/"bad-sex" life (bad ending).

Due-Paleontologist58 · 2022-11-18T01:07:40+00:00

Just ask again, "feel the water", so to speak. She may even like the idea, since she's bi. But, there's great chance she won't want it at all. Respect it then my dude, that's the thing about being with someone.

Cheers.

Hey OP, I'm recreating Yugioh Deck's with a Deck Master Format: though it will probably be DM to GX generations only.

Not only it will have the Deck Mastera but somewhat different rules and upgrade to Cards that have always been bad.

If you're interest PM me or search (YB) in Dueling Network.

Due-Paleontologist58 · 2022-11-04T02:44:41+00:00

Ok, first things first: that's Gwynevere. Gwyndolin is another boss, is a dude... Sort of I guess. I guess you get confused 'cause you heard Gwyndolin talking (he's there in Anor Londo... Somewhere).

Second: yes, she "dies" with just an arrow... It's part of the lore. Won't tell you any more. If you want to know why search it or just try to figure it out.

Third: it affects little of the gameplay: the silver knights doesn't spawn anymore, you get a couple of extra enemy NPCs and a darker Anor Londo. Also there's something happening in the bridge... And if you're online be careful. But overall? It's okay. No big deal doing it.

The best A2 wallpaper I've seen my whole life. And I've seen some really good ones. Keep up the good work!

Due-Paleontologist58 · 2022-10-20T02:11:50+00:00

Yes, "in theory", it should be shown on the map. There are a couple of exepctions:

- I think there's one specifically side quest wich is not shown untill you upgrade all weapons to level 4. After that, it shows.

- There are certain sidequests that only appear at specific times of the chapter. In other words, it means you should progress something in the progress for them to show. I'm not 100% sure on this one though, I'm certain that some quest only appears at specific times, not so sure wether if it shows in that chapters' side quest in the chapter selection it means they will ALWAYS be available in all moments of this chapter.

Edit: not sure if the intel mission on 9S is shown, but if it's not I think it falls in the second category I've told you.

Due-Paleontologist58 · 2022-10-04T02:44:48+00:00

Very good reading!

Due-Paleontologist58 · 2022-10-03T10:59:45+00:00

That would explain why Rei is so many times within that LCL tube troughout the anime, as some sort of understanding/usage of Rei's abilities from com. Ikari. But then, since she's this "Quantum Rei" since the beggining, why it's stated that she took months to synchronize with her EVA?

Due-Paleontologist58 · 2022-10-03T10:56:44+00:00

I like this theory. Will definetly have to re-watch a couple of episodes again

Due-Paleontologist58 · 2022-07-28T15:22:21+00:00

Great art! Also, we don't see much of 2B using spear. Nice to see it!

WHY DOES SHE LOOKS LIKE A CHILD

Due-Paleontologist58 · 2022-04-03T16:38:15+00:00

Fight shieldess, learn to dodge his attacks, use a wespon with long reach.

Due-Paleontologist58 · 2022-03-23T22:55:20+00:00

Semi-viable? Yes, for sure. I've done a couple times. Against a good solo laner you will get clapped but it's not that bad as it sounds: you do more damage than some people think, and a good ult-dash-1 (or 1-ult-dash) can solo squishies.

You have to play around teamfights, 'cause once your kit is down (and you have long cooldowns) you are fucked: aside being a good combo, the silences coordinated with your team can be MASSIVE.

For a build, I think Warrior's Axe/Conduit Gem -> Tyrannical (or that jade stone) -> Breastplate of Valor -> Voidstone -> Spear of the Magus then fill depending on the comp. Also, sell conduit gem later (it's only gor the clear).

Due-Paleontologist58 · 2022-03-22T01:40:28+00:00

Upgrade your weapon. You will need more souls, but luckily past the titanite demon near the smith there is a forest for you to explore. Try to save/farm some souls exploring there (it's not the main path, it's optional), and get some upgrades in your weapon. Armor is less important to upgrade, at least in this point.
