ok here's the deal. I'm currently a graduate student that's set to finish in spring of 09. I've decided in order to ensure success, I don't work a full-time job until my work is complete. As you know, this means that my flow of income isn't great. However, I do have a few part time jobs one of which contracts me to install networks for local companies, usually weekly. Even though I make just enough to afford my own place, I chose to stay at home since I have just as much privacy there then I would at my own crib. My mother pretty much stays to herself and doesn't get in my business. I also stay with my GF throughout the week. I feel at my age, not having my own place may hurt my chances, but I have to do what I have to do to succeed.
Anyways, recently I've started having the urge to meet new women. I've been in a LTR for about 4 years with a good woman, however, she has began to bore me and I feel it'd be best to just end it. The reason it's hard for me to leave is because she does everything I want. Cook, f*ck, s*ck on demand and she takes good care of me if I'm sick or something.
Reason why she turns me off is due to her shortcomings in the brain department. I wouldn't say she's a dumb f*ck by any means, she just doesn't know a great deal about the world. For example, she didn't know who Osama Bin Laden was until I had to tell her and she isn't a college grad, even though she is slowly making progress in school. She also seems sleepy a lot. She has a 5 year old daughter and steady job but doesn't have any outside interests. Most of her free time is spent catching up on sleep or we'll go to the movies, dinner every now and then.
Now here's the wierd issue, I'm completely loyal. I find it hard to try to hook up with other chicks simply because I respect my girlfriend so damn much. I've received a lot of numbers but never follow through - I'd feel like it was cheating so refrain from doing it. I haven't hooked up with another woman since we've been together and continue to find it hard to meet them while still being "committed" to her. As such, I've developed this mentality that I won't initiate any convo with other chicks unless they give me something to work with. For instance, eye contact or something similar to that. Real women will let you know indirectly if they're initially interested anyway, but not all.
So anyways, the options I came up with are 1) dump her and move on(which is hard to do - you know why by now)
2) Stay with her, but cheat. (may have too much respect for her to do that)
3) Try to hang in there with her. Maybe she is the right one and since she is pursuing doing something with her life, it could work out.
I know it's my choice, but I'd like to hear some other opinions on this. My buddies of course say to leave her, but that's expected. Maybe some more mature guys on here have some input on this.
Btw, I'm not some new troll. I've been reading these boards for a long time now, in fact I read these boards before I met my girlfriend and got a lot of p*ssy before diving into LTR thanks to the numerous columns and posts.
