And I suppose older women don't do similar things to what you supposedly assume of this 22-yr-old woman? Not all 22 yr old women go party on spring breaks, I know when I was 22, I stayed away from those "sceneries".

But nice try to "zing" at women half your age, though!

yes she did choose the company of her friends over being married young. However the ring was definitely big and impressive- she loved showing it off

no she definitely was not using me....her family had a lot of money and she got whatever she wanted. She was the one that kept trying to get me to save money and never once asked me to buy her anything.

She got bored, and she's not done partying. If you like 'em young (nothing wrong with that) then find one that's more compatable with your lifestyle, this one clearly wasn't. Love is like a butterfly my friend, the harder you try to chase it, the more it eludes you. Sit still, pay it cool, and it will gently land on your shoulder. That's my fortune cookie wisdom for the day.

you're exactly right.....I believe she did get bored and wasn't anywhere near done partying yet. She had to choose between girls nights out all the time or hangin around her fiance all the time and I guess at 22 she realizes shes way too young to play Miss housewife. She knew that while she was out with her friends I wasnt doing much and so she felt we were living different lifestyles...she was going out drinking 4-5 times a week and I wasnt

I would just man-up and move on. If you keep trying to get her back, she may feel smothered by you and eventually not even want to be friends. If you don't have contact with her, and she forgets about you, then you never had a chance anyway.

There's is a slight chance that after awhile of not hearing from you, she may find herself missing you and contact you. Just let her know, that the door is always open for her.

Most people in their early 20's are not ready to settle down. And this girl still lives with her parents? She needs to be out on her own for awhile before she will want to make a lifetime committment to anyone.

I agree with the other posters. Just stop completely. No need to be friends with her, it's not even convenient anyway.

Trust me, she will start thinking you are weird if you try to keep things going.

Most people in their 20's may not be ready to settle down, but a certain portion of them are. The university I went to seemed to be a great place to pair up dozens of young, mostly Christian, singles. I was attending weddings every year for several years, from my freshman year on. I probably went to about 12 to 14 weddings of my college friends. All of them were 21 to 25 when they married, and all are still married. Yes, ALL of them, and it's been 19 years since I graduated. I know of numerous other couples (whose weddings I didn't attend) who met at my university, got married, and are still married.

If the OP likes 'em young, and can apparently get them young, he just needs to stop looking for the party girls, and maybe spend more time at church. Just sayin'

Certain religious types do marry young. It's not all rosey (even when they remain married) but it's part of the lifestyle.

I only sent her 1 text message all day and I wanted to see how she answered it so I wrote "I could tell you dont want me to contact you even though you said you'd remain close friends. However, I know this is not the case. So I'm leaving you alone like you want. When can I pick up the ring?" she responded saying "you can pick up the ring anytime and yes we will remain close friends". I dont know- I think I'll just fade away and leave it at that because shes so busy I dont think she needs any more friends
