Why is it that some people can go from one relationship to another with hardly any time in between, whereas others can't get a decent guy if their life depended on it? I have a friend who was with this guy for like 3 years, and granted, a lot of it was one sided, she did a lot of the work, was always making plans, always going to see him, etc., and he was adamant about never wanting to get married, etc., (then why are you with him, I'm wondering...) so they broke up and it was fine. She's with a new guy already, they met when she was still with her other guy, but she's pretty serious with this other guy now, after not even a month! He's going through a divorce and has kids, so it's not the ideal situation, but he treats her really well and she is really happy, but she's being cautious too, which I don't blame her. But it's not just her....I see it ALL the time, where me, the only guys I seem to meet and hit it off with, well, they seem great at first, and then after a month or so, we're not having sleepovers or keeping little things at one anothers place, but he's telling me that well, he's just not that into me. My friend said that maybe I just attract the ones that don't want anything serious or are jerks, etc., but I don't think I am, I know what I want, I know the kind of person I want, so why can't I have it? Why does everyone else around me seem to have someone in their life and I can't even get a guy to break up with me to my face?!?
It's just one of those nights....

To be honest, it sounds like your friend actually doesn't have many standards at all when it comes to relationships, therefore, pretty much just about anyone breathing will fit her bill.
I know she's your friend and you care about her, but that's how I see that situation.
Her "boyfriend" of three years never had to do a dang thing to be with her, she did everything, of course he's goign to cruise by as long as possible.
