she sent me a message yesterday at 1 am to ask if I was home, I ignored it because I was busy but I'm still thinking about it.
This is also after nearly a year of no contact
We met while I was spending a month in Australia. Messaged each other for a few days after I returned to the UK and then it just suddenly stopped. She's always on my mind.
>>8273313
I spent 5 days with her, the 5 best and truest days of my life. When I returned home we kept messaging eachother until she lost interest in me. A year and a half and 2 other girls has passed and Im still thinking daily about her.
>>8273313
We saw each other for two months and it felt like two years. I asked if she wanted to be my gf, she told me she was seeing someone else the entire time she was seeing me. They're dating now and I check her fb once or twice a week.
I still write a lot of songs about her and I tell my friends and bandmates they're about my current gf. its pathetic
>>8273313
I'm not as well read as other /lit/izens but the OP is referring to Alighieri right?
>>8273444
Yes
You guys realize that characters like Frederic Moreau and Werther are giant fucking faggots, right? And that they were probably written to satirize sappy, woe-is-me, obsessively lusty young men?
Did someone say Beatrice?
>>8273465
I actually relate to them and I'm a grill.
>>8273313
Isn't this essentially just the /lit/ equivalent to a waifu?
>>8273497
Well yes of course.
>>8273452
In that case my Beatrice is my ex.
>you will never be someone's Beatrice
y live
>>8273497
>>8273699
You could be mine. You'll not be, but maybe in some parallel universe..
I haven't met her yet.
>tfw no gf studying Finnish language and literature in a university so she can review my work and give advice for improvement
>>8273699
You're probably someone's without even knowing it.
>>8273699
Post a body part with timestamp.
Since we met the first ever week of our college classes, my now fiancé is my Beatrice
Only, y'know, i get to rail her and she begs for the dick and all that down 'n' dirty action
>>8273893
"no"
On the other hand, it's pretty much impossible for someone to not have masturbated to you.
>>8273912
Then she's not your Beatrice, she's your Gemma.
>>8273313
who is this snank?
>>8274092
>snank
Probably a couture fashion model, also kys.
My Beatrice is an idiot guy with a new girlfriend that looks exactly like me.
>>8273465
Werther nearly autobiographical you dummy
>>8273893
I have barely left the house since I was 14 years old, noone even knows of me, so it's impossible.
>tfw my beatrice has become a professional model
>tfw from time to time i see her face in some random commercials or magazine
it is as if a dagger is slowly being pushed into my heart.
>>8273313
An imaginary, ideal woman named "Elizabeth" who I imagine in various situations, appearances, and milieux for whatever inspiration I need.
It sounds autistic, but it works pretty well, art-wise.
My Beatrice was a girl with whom I decided to have no more contact half a year ago. I still jeep thinking about her, but I do not regret my decision and I consider it to be a sensitive and understandable one. I'm sure she reached the same conclusion.
All of your Beatrices sound really shitty compared to Dante's
>This girl and I had a thing for a few months, then she moved on to a new dude and I still miss her. She's my Beatrice
Seriously, the real Beatrice wasn't a ho
>>8273313
>tfw you know your partner is your beatrice
>>tfw you know you aren't your partner's beatrice
>>>tfw you know who their beatrice is
:-)
>>8274499
i felt this deep in my soul
>>8276062
she's not your beatrice if you willingly ignore her you deranged autist
>>8276068
>The real Beatrice
Dante just saw her a couple of times and that alone sparked the creation of his christian fan-fiction.
>>8276076
if he met her a third time and she was acting like a ho he would have written Othello and not La Vita Nuova
he had actual taste unlike you cucks
>>8273313
She was an intern at a large organization at the same time I was. She was a smokeshow, well-traveled, Eastern European, and a few years older than me. Every guy who met her ended up trying to hit on her. I was 21, fresh out of college, and a virgin. She thought my quirkiness and fake confidence was funny, in a cute way. We kept hanging out and became close friends. There was tension, but nothing came out of it. Probably because I was too scared to do anything. Shit, that's the story of my fucking life. Too fucking scared.
Her internship ended before mine did, and she resumed her travels. We remained in touch for a while and I abruptly cut contact.
Right now, she's probably getting railed by some tall handsome stranger in some tourist haven. I'm still a virgin reminiscing over her on a Sri Lankan ethnic crafts board.
I keep telling myself that I'll get over her, that there will be other women. But until there are other women who make me forget about my flawed existence like she did, I'll stay reminiscent and hopeless.
>>8276072
>>>tfw you know who their beatrice is
Right in the feels. Only I know that she's slutting it up before she marries a deca-millionaire.
>>8273465
do you even know what a muse is
>>8273699
Despair not. There has to be at least one guy squeezing out his frothy, sad little seed to a blurry pic of your feet he got on the subway. Perhaps he even posts on 4chan. Perhaps, just perhaps, he is even here...;););)
>>8273489
that's the point
>>8276874
...I feel a lot better now. Thank you.
I don't have a beatrice i don't think, but there's this Girl who's basically my albertine and i cant deal with it.
>>8276847
stop coopting my feels you psychotic degenerate
>>8276847
>Right in the feels. Only I know that she's slutting it up before she marries a deca-millionaire.
How can you people be stupid enough to compare this to Beatrice
Did any of you even read La Vita Nuova or La Divina Commedia?
>>8278012
they're literally incapable of the level of emotion that dante felt for beatrice so they assume it was an exaggeration and feel justified in calling the hottest piece of ass that ever gave them the time of day "their beatrice"
dante respected betty as a man respects his god, pic related
I met her when she was 10 (Dante's Beatrice was 8 when they first met) and loved her immediately. By 13 she was beautiful and I kissed her once, when I was moving away. She died last year.
>>8274525
Well there's your problem
Don't hate
>>8273320
but are you home or not? who was home?
>>8276051
are you tobey maguire in Spiderman 2?
>>8278295
>>8278386
I don't think I've really been home ever since she left the first time
>>8278320
God-tier
>>8273465
Werther was autobiographical but Goethe later disparaged the book because of all the self-pitying Romantic asshats it inspired
>>8278544
>>8278295
That is her in the photo, btw. Here's another, also at 13.
>>8274525
>I have barely left the house since I was 14 years old, noone even knows of me, so it's impossible.
Good plan.
>>8276953
that gif tho
>>8278599
How did she die?
>>8278599
God damn...
I would have killed myself the second she died.
>>8273313
My beatrice is a drug addicted whore that treated me like dirt. We don't talk anymore. The sad thing is, I still love the person who she was, or who I thought she was, and I'll always love her.
>>8278599
This thread is actually making me kinda sad.
I have a question too, can someone be your Beatrice, your Dona Angelicata if she doesn't love you back?
I think that's is one of the first attributes of her, that she will make you better, help you reach divinity.
If that were the case then no one could be sad about his or her Beatrice since they would always love them back.
>>8278395
never even thought of that comparison
>tfw i lolled but am still hurtin
>>8278649
>>8278613
She started getting schizophrenic as her teen years went on, something she'd been terrified of because it happened to her older sister. One day she jumped off a tall bridge into a harbour because angels told her to--but she somehow survived that almost unharmed (no idea how), but she died of an overdose. On purpose or accidental? Nobody is saying, at least to me. The official word is accident.
