BEST Relationship?

I should be doing my homework...so I'm gonna do that before I add my story BUT...I'd like to play the question game...

What was the BEST relationship you were ever in? Why was it so wonderful? Do you wish you could go back?

Re: BEST Relationship?

  • It's sad to say my best relationship was materialistic. He owned a restaurant and a gorgeous house on the bay down the jersey shore. He bought me fancy things, took me to amazing restaurants in NYC (Le Cirque was my fave), and we traveled all over. I felt like a princess. Until he opened his mouth and let his male chauvinistic ways come through. He's also a doctor today. But I didn't deserve his behavior.
    I'm hoping the best is yet to come.

    Wow @MrsLynnyD! I bet it was fun to go to all of those places around NYC.

    For me, I know for certain the best is yet to come.

    Anyway, my best relationship wasn't a real relationship. I was shooting a commercial for Sea World's new water park and noticed this super attractive guy who was yukking it up with everyone and was pretty much the charmer of the room. Long story short, we ended up in a non relationship. Agreeing that we'd exclusively see each other, but in the long run...it wasn't going to work out because he was determined to marry a virgin pornstar. Yeah. By that I mean he was looking for a wife who had a fake tan, fake hair, fake boobs, fake nails, the whole thing...and was a virgin. LMFAO! For realz. Anyway, as crazy as that sounds we had an amazing thing going. I started a tour right after I met him, traveling all over the country several times a month working alongside the LPGA so not being in each other's space 24/7 was great. He spent summers in upstate NY where he grew up and one of my tour spots was there while he was there so it worked out amazingly. We did wine country, I met some of his family friends and friends, and he took me to an old town with the cutest old movie theatre you can imagine. It remains one of my most favorite trips I've taken. For the first time, things I did were reciprocated. I'd send him care packages while he was gone and he'd send some back. He would make paintings of places we went together and I found out last year my dad's wife saved them so they are still at my dad's house.  He also was able to come with me to Portland, OR and work for me/with me which was so nice. His pay covered his trip out, so it was so nice. We went to wine country there and ate at one of the places on the 1000 things to do before you die (or whatever it's called) books. We went to NYC for Christmas which was my ultimate dream. It was so wonderful. It lasted about a year and then he found out additional details about the affair I had before him and we split. I told him about it up front (told him virtually everything) before but I didn't tell him I babysat for the guy, so he felt that was too much for him I guess and we were done. I honestly didn't omit that on purpose, just didn't think about it since I told him EVERYTHING else and he accepted it. Anyway, I was so happy to be accepted by someone bc I was sure the having an affair was going to stop me from a lot of future relationships. None the less, because Florida sucks and I live in a bubble, he found out through his brother who knew someone I went to hs with who told him that detail. SO pissed I met a guy ON SET who was the first guy I dated TOTALLY not associated with my high school and what do you know...somehow high school people came into the picture and effed it all up.

    Here's a few pictures of us from a shoot we did for my portfolio. Yum. Miss it. Miss the tan. Miss the hair. Miss the bod. Miss it. And would I go back? Nah. I mean, I'm not a virgin pornstar so it wouldn't have worked.

    Oh and he was the guy I said before in another post who looked like Brody from The Hills/Laguna Beach/Kardashian/etc.

  • Holy cow! You both are hot!

    Past best relationship was with my ex james. Hes actually gay, but he was such a wonderful guy. For my 16 birthday he bought me a pirates of the.carribean tshirt with jack sparrow on it. After i got out of high school i lost interest in graphic ts and got rid of all of them put that one it became my favorite pajama shirt. We tried dating one other time before he came out of the closet but he enabled me not to eat and i enabled his drinking and getting high. I had that jack sparrow shirt up until my xh found it and threw it in a bonfire becausr he was jealous.

    In recent years bf is my best relationship. Were no longer volatile or in dark places in our life so we actually have a healthy relationship now

    LOL @minnesotamomma91. That was 6 years ago. I don't look like that anymore, esp after baby. Maybe one day! I'm already wondering how I can work on my tan with a baby since I don't tanning bed anymore.

    That's super cute about the shirt. Oddly enough I have an ex named James who I once thought was my best relationship and I also think he's gay. He also enjoys getting high and snorting coke. Odd. Maybe there's something about James'. Good for you though for realizing he also brought you down with not eating.

  • Thankfully james is clean now. Ive creeped on his facebook. A lot of our problems as individuals. His from being closeted and me from a series of sexual assaults and abusive boyfriends.

    Im sad i no longer have that tshirt. I got it at a time i really needed someone on my side and he was always there. I have nothing but fond memories of him and wish him the best in life. I especially hope he fins a good man.

    I stand by saying this, i would be proud to have bentley turn out like him. Hes a funny guy, a great actor, a fantastic orchestra bass player and a fiercley loyal friend

    Wow. That's amazing.

    I wish my James were clean. Last I saw a picture of him a few months ago, he looked skinny and like crap.

    I had something similar, a scrapbook that was INSANELY INSANE that I did while we were together the first time before he left for college. My ex husb made me throw it away when he found it (James gave it back to me later in anger). I could kick myself in the ass for that just bc I put so much work and money into it and it was like 200 pages. I worked on it ALL SUMMER. Luckily I took pictures of each page and have them somewhere on an old computer, plus all the journal entries/letters I wrote him are on that same old computer bc I typed them out and printed them. Still not the same but I know what you mean. I hate when we lose sentimental stuff like that.

  • Oh jeese jealousy doesnt pay. I especially didnt get it with my xh and my james. Cause you know, we never had sex. And he was an ex boyfriend that i didnt even have the right plumbing for.

    Yeah I should have known when my ex husband said he had a massive issue with me hugging guys. I think he told me that when we were still dating and I was shocked. I'm a massive hugger and it's never meant anything sexual. Despite my risque affair, I've had sex with less people than two hands and normally only sleep with someone after a few months of dating/relationship. Marine was the only one that didn't apply to. He had no reason to think me hugging someone was going to make me turn into a slooter. The jealousy thing kills me.

  • Hrm.  This is a tough one.

    When BD and I dated in HS it was pretty good emotionally.  It was probably the best and most complete "love" I've ever experienced.  I am sure he loves me the same way today.  He's just so fucked up from other relationships now. 

    Aside from BD, when I lived in SoCal I dated a guy for almost 10 years.  Loved him to death.  We rarely fought, always had fun together, the sex was amazing, etc etc.  We never lived together and I think that's a good thing because it probably would have ruined it.  I always felt there was something missing in that relationship, though.  I broke up with him 14 years ago and we're still good friends.  I still love him to death and I'd hop back in his bed anytime he asked.  Good thing he lives 3000 miles away.  :D

    My current relationship is the best one, which is good ;)


    We were friends for years and know each other really well. There were no secrets or games played from day one. It took me a while because he wasn't "my type" but as I got older I realized that banishing him the the friend zone was a mistake.

    There is honesty, openness, laughter, fun and our future goals are in line. Also, DD has known him and they are great together, which makes him infinitely more attractive to me :)

    The biggest thing is I feel safe with him in every way, yet things are still fun and exciting. That can be hard to find since safe can be boring a lot of the time.
    That makes me so happy for you

  • I can honestly say I don't have one that fits what I'd consider a "best relationship" though my high school sweetheart comes close. He taught me so much about myself, helped me through a really tough time emotionally (I had gone through a bad breakup and lost my grandma all within a week) and just taught me to love myself, take care of myself and try my hardest. We fell apart in a colossal way in college because HIS life fell apart and he literally disappeared. Left the state and didn't tell me, and this was before the days of cell phones so I didn't have a way to contact him. I ran into him five months later as I was going home from a concert and he was walking around with some friends. And looked AWFUL. Maybe drugs and alcohol but I don't know for sure. 

    I think were it not for how badly things ended, that'd be my best relationship.

    We're counting him. She didn't ask about your worst break-up. ;)
  • Hahahaha @tig594 that was FAR from my worst breakup, believe it or not :)
