Hey people,
my story goes like this...
i have a girlfriend, we've been together for about 4mths+. but she isnt commited to this relationship. i remember when we first knew each other for not long, she was quite crazy about me.. being very sensitive.. now she rarely is... she replies for my msgs are often short and she doesnt ask much about me.. though i told her about some of my probs, she never asked me about how it is the next day or so.. her conversations with me are short, i've asked her to come out a couple of times but she always says she's lazy or tired.. wats more is that there's another guy who like her as well and he's waiting patiently for her.. and... u know wat my worst nightmare would be... she went out with him to get his new year clothes and i can understand that. but i saw her when she was on her way back and she wore contacts... she never wore contacts when she's out with me.. and she never talked or smile to me when she sees me.. i asked if she was going back and she just nod her head..
Now, i'm living through quite painful days.. failing to get her attention. i've talked to her a few times abt her being not responsive and she often give s me a word of sorry. it hurts me to hear that.. and now i dont really wana confront her again.. i dont like to hear that sorry... feels like we're strangers.. she very rarely ask abt me in daily life, unless she's really in good mood.. and i'm feeling quite miserable...
Hmm...seriously I do not know if I should be feeling sad for you or not...but I'll obey my instinct as usual and support you.

You see, although she's your girlfriend but you don't really own her. She's still reserved her rights to go out with her friends, and her friends doesn't necessary has to be girls only or people who doesn't makes you jealous. Yes, there are always guys out there waiting and waiting for the both of you to break up or wait for her to dump you. But no matter how long they are willing to wait, they're still stucked in the 'nth' runner-up position while you're 1st position. There isn't any need to be jealous or possessive really, she will leave you if she's really bent on dumping you for someone better. And when she really does that, you'll have to blame yourself for it and no one else. Respect her as a friend (That's why it's called GirlFriend, luckily there's still a Friend word in 50% of it.) and love her as a girl. Try putting yourself in her position for once and perhaps you'll understand a bit of her behaviour.
Remember...
GirlFriend should means someone who's better or at least equivalent of your best friend. So you should trust her as you would trust your best friend on the friendship (The attachments of the hearts never dies), respect her as you would of your best friend (They are still in control of their own life and they don't need to please you every single time you're together), love her as a girl (You can shower your one-sided love on her anytime without breaking the law). Love is reciprocal and she'll respond back to your love cos girls will know if they're being loved or not.

Good luck, and do change your mindset and behaviour towards her before she's forced to dump you. And do not feel bad if she doesn't respond well enough for your expectations, and don't bother to try forcing her to give you a reason for it. Girls are beyond reasoning cos they're emotional creatures, something rational creatures like Guys couldn't comprehend in eternity. Just do your part and love her, she'll follow-up in her own pace.
