For the record, the strategy I adopted was to just act a lot less attracted to her and hope she'd get the hint.

I think this is the reason she decided to leave.

This worked, as she got a ton of new clothes, layered her hair, and even puts on a marginal amount of make-up, but she opted to break up with me before doing all this.

I agree with another poster who said this was her marketing the product again. I think you should've said something to her. Something like, "Hey, why don't you do that thing with your hair where it hangs down and has that curl on the ends, etc." or "What happened to that shirt you wear sometimes with the whatever on it, you look really hot wearing that." I think if you'd just say some stupid piddly thing like that, she'd start caring more. As long as you say that she lots more sexy or whatever wearing or doing something else, you don't come across sounding like you're saying she looks like a pig doing what she's doing.

hehe, for some reason this reminds of that Party Poker commercial with the guy sitting outside the dressing room, and his gf/wife comes out and asks how she looks. He's just sitting there with that stoned look on his face. Kinda like he just got check/raised on the river holding a royal flush, mouth hanging open, eyes as big as softballs.

Or that other commercial where the woman asks the guy who's reading the paper, "Does this dress make me look fat?" and the guy doesn't look up, and just says, "You betcha."

Did she start off as a slob? if so, you chose to go out with her then, so why the difference now? If not, maybe she's just regressing to the mean (you).

Brilliant strategy. It's obvious that communication was the cornerstone in this one. If you're unable to talk to your girlfriend about stuff, why is she your girlfriend? That should be one of the benefits to having a girlfriend. Not saying to be cruel in how you approach her with it, but you should be able to say something.

I wouldn't say it worked. She'd likely have done this no matter how you guys broke up. The fact she is single has much more to do with it than you ignoring her. Watch when she gets into another relationship. She'll likley revert back. Unless she was just depressed a little from dating you. Which could be an extension of how you described how you kept yourself. It can build on each other.

There were many things that could be talked about, this was just a particularly touchy subject. Hence the post.

Yes the "it worked" part was sarcasm. I know I didn't handle it well.

Should've snapped her in the crapper while you could've. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

i try to praise the positive if i can remember to. next time you see her with hair in a way you like, compliment her on it. if you don't like the hair in a weird bun and really feel a need to point it out, just smile at her, reach over, pull the pin out of her bun, run your fingers through her hair and give her a good kiss. who knows, you might even get lucky.

The correct answer is obvious:

Stick it in her pooper.

what is it with the young generation looking unclean and sloppy with hand-me-down looking outfits these days, anyway? even my wife bought these jeans for an enormous amount of money that looked like they'd been ground into mud and washed with dollar general laundry detergent. every time i go out with her wearing those pants, i feel the need to explain to people that we are not poor...that those jeans came right out of the box looking that way.

and don't get me started on stinky dreadlocks on white people....

cheers!
