The Angry Thread.

After destroying my front wheel, rear 2011 magura, v brake I decided to fix my bike.

Swapped the 2011 magura for a 'fully working' 05' magura. Bought a new rim and built the wheel up. Also got myself a brand new shimano saint. NICE.

After 3 mins of riding today I snapped the thing that the brake pads clips onto.. And my front hub has some serious issues. Feck....

And also know now that I wont go to radfest. Lucky day...

Girlfriend wants a month off to work out her feelings. Not sure if I'm willing to wait around for that long only to be told "not interested." Actually coping remarkably well which is possibly suggestive although definitely feeling a sense of loss and frustration.

She wants a month away from one another to see if she misses me, can get to grips with her mixed feelings, etc.

I don't really understand and it sounds like she doesn't even understand herself. The emotional world of females seems to be infinitely more complex than that of males. It's a pain for both of us.

Athough this sounds a little odd...a month isn't really that long

Gives you some time to get on the bike more, and do things you can't do when she's about.

I will never understand breaks.

To see if she misses you? If she's not missing you enough during the time you're at work or whatever to know the answer to that already, then it's not right in my opinion. I'd be worried if I wasn't looking forward to seeing Hayley at home every evening. Then again, I'm hardly a normal guideline for relationships...

Ben... From my past experience... I've been told the same crap twice before and my best friend is going through the same crap as I write... My advice: Lift that anker and hit that gass lever! Otherwise you'll both have a month of misery and hard-core thoughts and in the end both of you will be tired from all of it and confused as f**k...

As far as understanding women goes: Not even Chuck Norris can understand them... ;) Don't get me wrong - I love women and I'd kill and die for my fiancee! But sometimes quitting is less painfull then keeping the corpse of the relationship in one piece...

However you decide, I wish you best of luck!

And DON'T let it affect your riding ;)

I can imagine breaks within the context of a marriage, which I assume is pretty intense, but we're only approaching a year now. For me it's most a simple case of whether there's a connection or something seriously amiss that dictates whether a relationship should continue. The thing is she says she does look forward to seeing me and the last time we were together she said she felt happy to see me.

Is it fair for me to be left in limbo whilst she works out her feelings only to tell me "that's it" after that time? Perhaps this is just her way of getting out of the relationship and what makes it feel easier for her even if it messes me around. People definitely play games and lie, even to themselves, about their real intentions.

Pfff! Ben, dont hang around. If she is giving you that chat, jump before she pushes.

Ride your bike loads, go out and have a bevvy, bump into new people and forget the whole "im not sure" bollocks.

I think I'm probably going to do that to be honest!

Well it's strange because the relationship is pretty good. It's gone through a difficult period recently in the sense that she's tired from starting new freelance work and doesn't have much energy. It's possible she's viewing our relationship through the lens of tiredness and the stress of being made redundant a month ago. This is what makes it confusing from my perspective. But, yeah, I don't want to get dicked around. I've been there before and feel much more cynical about people in relationships.

Thanks for your responses though!

She just came to collect her stuff. Told her I felt she was just setting these terms so that I would reject them and finish the relationship for her. Her face and general inability to respond was telling. I feel pretty sketchy now but at least I've just avoided this pointless 'break.'
