I've recently broken up with another girlfriend, which is its essence doesn't bother me, because basically it wasn't working out, didnt feel right and we've decided to remain friends which is always good.
The thing that happens to be bugging me is that after we broke up she told me she loved me (actually "in love" not just the sort of 'love' you stick at the end of an email or text) and that she wants to have a baby with me.
Cue fear of fatherhood and the realisation I'm actually just a kid myself to kick in.
The thing that quite worries me is that I haven't known this girl a great deal of time at all. We met at a party, got drunk and did some stuff together and we started going out, but after a while (once I'd sobered up) I didnt feel the same and chose to end it to avoid and later heartache from prolonging the relationship. She took it badly. Really badly. With cries of "don't you find me attractive?" and "what have I done wrong" ringing through my head, I came back with the clichéd-to-death, "its not you, its me" which seemed to settle her down.
I've actually never been told by a girl that she "loved" me, nor have I ever said it to a girl. I'm quite pedantic with the word and beleive it should only be used when you mean it, and she assured me she does love me. This is rather daunting to think that someone who has known me a pretty short amount of time feels that way about me. What's even more frightening is that I don't feel the same way, at all.
I suppose I can finally empathise with those who stalk people and fall in love with them without really knowing them, and the other party is completely oblivious to this. I always though love would be something that came mutually from both parties, but I guess that isn't the case.
I'm not sure if I should feel bad about this, but I really do. I dislike hurting people, but I think I did the right thing to end it before she went skitzo and came off the pill and got pregnant to have the child she's oh-so-desperate to have.
Goes to show that you can be all mature and grown-up but still be a child yourself in some respects.
I'm still a child, I guess, but I like the security and lack of morning sickness it brings.

My best friend is me... the person voted least likely to screw me over.
A lot of my friends are blokes, simply because i don't like girls. The female friends I do have are wicked, if they wasn't then they wouldn't be my friends.
Girls generally are bitchy. For instance, my best mate is a bloke who i worked with. We became close after he broke up with his girlfriend, but thats only because i only started speaking to him a few weeks before she dumped him. So anyways, me and this guy have been best mates for the past year, and none of the girls on the deli counter, where his ex worked, will talk to me. Except one, thats cos she's lovely. Thats why i don't like girls.
Also, no matter how good my female friends are, they will stab you in the back, just to get their bloke or to keep their bloke. My ''best friend'' decided to tell my boyfriend that i had been cheating on him (which i never) because her boyfriend didn't like me (my ex, and her boyfriend are good mates) She would rather make up lies about me and have a boyfriend than to have a best mate. Give it a few weeks when he ignores her she'll coming crying to me yet again.
None of my bloke mates have ever done anything like that to me. None of them would. Blokes tell it like it is, if i'm looking a state they'll tell me, not that i ever look a state you understand. Blokes don't care if you haven't spoken to them in 2 weeks, they just pick up where they left off, girls however, if you don't speak to them in 2 weeks walk past u in the street!

Yessir.
You're usually right, though.

I didn't mean my immaturity at having sex with my female friends. hell no, I applaud myself for that, often.
I was talking about the whole "not condoning female friends" thing, it was archaic rubbish.

Why the hell for? Hey they may be my friends but that doesn't mean I haven't at least bagged off with them at some point in the past. And, with one exception, I have.
Jesus, I'm not THAT gay...

I just like being opinionated.

I've been friends with girls in the past and ended up being b*tched at and feeling unwanted which isnt cool. It's probably unfair to generalise but its something that soured me from having women as friends. It's not a great generalisation to make, though. It was when I was young and hormonal. Now i'm older and still as hormonal I do have female friends, but I've never really managed to have a close female friend that I didnt end up trying to have sex with.
I think as I mature (which I am sure I some day will) I will manage to have female friends that don't whinny and b*tch at me, and that I will find resitable enough to stop my fluctuant come-ons.
Sorry for my immaturity.

The loophole.
If she's your girlfriend then it's totally cool. But I'm guessing your relationship came first, probably?
Either way, I approve of that.

I never seem to have had a best mate, I have had a group of best mates instead.
