  • I find that sometimes i have posted or made a thread with good intentions and some want to comment or shoot you down for their own buzz. Again society you crazy breed. We are all different but somehow similar.

    Some people just like being dicks unfortunately. Build themselves up by tearing other people down.

  • Back to the topic. If they are 7 years younger there is the answer. Immature games from immature folk i still think don't get involved with the games. Move on politely. New friends and relationships are out there

    They're the closest to my age at university and thought I guess it could work, kind of lonely being 33 and back at university. Cannot really relate to the 18-19 year olds plus I get a sense they are not interested in knowing me due to the age gap. Ah wells, I am there to study hard and get high grades.
    I was thinking of going into the cafe for a coffee this weekend but probably best I move on. 
    I feel like I am being kept as a 'friend' for her own amusement and am thought of as a fool.

    Prank them back, next time say:
    "Really?  Well I'm sorry to hear that for your sake, I'm here if you need someone to talk to.
    Do you mind if I make a move on him?  He's been giving me some serious signals..."

    She sounds like a fucking idiot. You're better off without her. Nothing for you to feel foolish about. The only advice I would give, just for next time someone acts like such a loser with you, is bail out earlier.

    Hate to say it but yeah. I mean, we had some mature conversations and that, she looked after me when I came in to her work by giving me free coffee and cakes but I don't understand this behaviour. If you're close to breaking up with your boyfriend why would you take his phone and prank someone. I have mixed feelings. I want to give it another chance but I just feel uncomfortable about this and don't want to be fooled again.

    I totally agree.
    Be careful not to feel for this woman because inside you may feel something if you want to still try and be friends but be honest with yourself.
    Its ok to feel but be careful because her behaviour was to play a game with yout good nature= fucking idiot as pjsoul says.

    Yeah I feel bad about it like I am being too harsh. But I don't want to be mistreated/treated like a fool.

    That is very understandable. And now you know a little more about what kind of person she is.
