I just got on about 20 minutes ago... what else have I missed today?

It seems to me that there have been a number of threads today making fun of his. Either because it got bumped up to the top again today, or because when I saw it bumped, I went searching for all the other parody threads and laughed my a$$ off. It's a slow day at work...........wanna fight about it?
 
A truly creative Skoorb Effect thread will have the words "Skoorb Effect" incorporated into the OP. This also provides evidence that you really aren't a psycho stalker that followed your "girlfriend" while she was on a date with some other guy. Just for future reference.

So I had been dating this girl janet for awhile now. It all started when she asked me to fix her computer and when I did she gave me a hug and said that I was a good friend. I played it cool for awhile but lately I've been turning up the heat and taking her out to dinner, movies, etc. Well the other night when I dropped her off, I walked her up to her door and we held hands the ENTIRE way. So I'm thinking I'm in but I dont want to press because I know shes really conservative and saving herself for the right guy and all that stuff.

Well tonight I find out shes been going out with this other guy. WTF?!? I mean we held hands and shes already stepping out on me? I followed them on their date the other night and he was at her place for like 4 hours after he dropped her off. They must have fallen asleep watching a movie or something.

Anyways, what do I do? I totally like this girl but I dont have a lot of confidence. Is there any wasy way to get rid of this other guy without Janet knowing?

*EDIT* As requested here is a breakdown of our dates:

Date 1: $19 for movies, $11.50 for snacks, and $8.32 for Coldstone's, $5 in gas while driving around
Date 2: $72 for dinner at Outback, $14 for bowling, $8 for gas
Date 3: $52 for dinner at Applebees, $19 for another movie, another $5 for gas

God the edit is gold. Definite 10/10, especially with the stringing along.
 
1) she was never your girlfriend
2) who the hell tracks how much you spend on a girl? do you suppose she owes you because you buy her dinner?
3) and you waited outside her house for 4 hours. wow.

no offense but you sound more like this skywalker66 dude.

no..sounds more like WayneTek, did you see his last edits?
 
She gave you a hug and said you're a good "friend". Ok. Do you know how many hug most of us get from girls?
Ok, so you asked her out, spent some money on her...held hands....that doesnt mean much. Why didnt you kiss her! You said it yourself, you have low selfesteem and probably afraid of rejection (arnt we all?). You probably took too long man. You cannot do this.....
You've never even kissed her. How is she "yours". Obviously shes playing the feild. Thats healthy and I support it. Shes not going "out on you". come on man, I know you're bummed...but dont lose perspective of the whole situation.
You followed her?! WTF is wrong with youuuuuu?????!?!?!?!?

I don't want to sound like an a-hole, but holding hands and going to dinner does not mean she is your girlfriend. Sounds like you guys haven't even kissed skoorb let alone anything more intimate than that. I have female friends that I hold hands with, walk in arms together, dance together, see movies and eat together often but thats what they are, friends. Would I date any of them? Maybe, but they are friends, and thats what you are to her. You can't ever be someones boyfriend unless you have a conversation about your relationship with each other.

But let's give you and skoorb some hope and say she sees you as possibly more than a friend... even then she is entitled to date whoever she wants. You can never assume things, you must establish a committed relationship.... until each person can do whatever they want.

And quite frankly all my female friends would never ever ever want to date some creepy guy who follows them around when they go on a date, whats up that man? Get a grip you cant stalk people, that is just plain not cool at all. There is absolutely no way in hell you could ever make her dislike or hate this other guy on your own, the ONLY thing you can do is bring your A-game and hope she digs you more than this other dood.

Personally I'd give her the cold shoulder/ignoring treatment and see how she reacts. Don't give skoorb no attention. If she likes you she will do things to get your attention, if she is too into this other guy she won't notice you gone. If she bites, hang out with her and give her a huge wet one on the lips at the right time, thats the only true way to find out. Not to mention parodies are for pussies man. Yeah.
 
Nooooooo, the correct answer is #3!!!!!!!!

3. Keep following them to find chinks in the other guys armor

It is the only way he can prove to her how much he likes her.
 
Well the other night when I dropped her off, I walked her up to her door and we held hands the ENTIRE way
YOU PLAYER!

I followed them on their date the other night and he was at her place for like 4 hours after he dropped her off. They must have fallen asleep watching a movie or something.
Into the fire you go!

Are you sure she's going out with that guy? She doesn't seem all that conservative if she's going around with 2 different guys
