fucking hell, that boy is amazing. there is no one else in this world that i could hang out with for 12 hours straight and not be the least bit bored (nor bore the other person).

i don't think i'm ever going to meet someone like him ever again. sure, i've met some seriously awesome people, don't get me wrong... but you know what i mean. everybody has that one particular person that can't ever be replaced.

ugh. i sound like a fucking woman.


...

and that's about as deep into relationship drama as i get.

srsly tho dat shit went straight to teh heart, son.

oh, good morning ECME! How are you?

6/17/2010 7:13:18 AM

I'm good. At work reading through emails. Soon, I will leave you TWWers to argue amongst yourselves for the day.

How are you?

6/17/2010 7:15:48 AM

Such a busy man. I'm tired and will soon go back to sleep, probably until noon.

6/17/2010 7:16:51 AM

Oh my.

I hope you don't choke on your saliva during your slumber.

i'm sorry, evan, i do not miss my ex, but i feel you [alittlehomo]

6/17/2010 7:31:31 AM

i can empathize, although it's moving a little further and further away from missing each day

6/17/2010 8:01:06 AM

I too, feel evan's pain...

now, see, i was too... hell, i was practically over him
but then he came home for the summer and wouldn't stop bugging me about hanging out again
and we had a really crazy conversation last night about some shit that went down in which he told me some stuff i wasn't aware of that explains quite a lot about what happened between us

6/17/2010 8:08:19 AM

i can't stand that. i typically have to withdraw from exes completely so that the feeling of getting over them can completely hit and THEN try to hang out again, none of this "I'm 50% of the way there, let's hang out and you're gonna tell me how you miss how things were and completely whittle away all the work I had done to get over you"

6/17/2010 8:11:28 AM

exactly.

i have to just cut off communication entirely for a few weeks and i'm normally good. but now, by the time school starts, i'll totally be crushing on him again... at which point he'll leave for the semester and i'll repeat the process of getting over him. honestly, things would probably be better if we just sorta stopped being friends, but when we hang out... ugh, i don't even know. hell, half the time he can even complete my sentences and we always seem to know what the other person is thinking...

he's basically a clone of me, except much more attractive... and not single.

the worst part about the whole thing? he has a boyfriend now who is, admittedly, fucking incredible. there's no way i could ever compete. ever.

oh yeah, and on an added note... last night we went to trivia at a place in durham with a bunch of his friends... apparently one of them texted my ex after we left and said "fyi, i think evan is hot as fuck."



[Edited on June 17, 2010 at 8:25 AM. Reason : he then facebook stalked me]

The day I miss any of my exes is the day I'm clinically insane.

6/17/2010 8:24:44 AM

exes cannot be friends.

true story.

6/17/2010 8:24:46 AM

i'm friends with most of my exes... admittedly, not *close* friends, but friends nontheless. i'm totally fine with that.

it's just this motherfucker.

6/17/2010 8:26:48 AM

i've become friends with a couple after the breakup, but usually it takes a couple years, that i date again and they date again and then we can talk comfortably.

"exes cannot be friends. true story."

one of my exes from a couple years ago has recently started texting me again. I haven't seen her in over a year. She knows i'm completely over her, but she "wants to get together and have drinks and catch up since we were so close". I guess that means she wants to get drunk and fuck for old times sake? I'm inclined to take her up on that offer.

6/17/2010 8:36:25 AM

i dont even miss my gf right now. she gets pissed at the most idiotic things. i may just move out and get my $$ back

6/17/2010 8:36:56 AM

what good comes of being close friends with an ex? i suppose i should qualify "friend" by noting that it goes past casual acquaintance, IMO...i talk to or hang out with my friends on a regular basis...just because i don't refuse to talk to them occasionally doesn't mean i'd consider them a friend over an acquaintance

6/17/2010 8:57:33 AM

Unless you've been sliding downhill. Then it tells you to shape up or ship out.

i don't think testing your ability to hang out with an ex is a valid measure of how much you've "grown and matured"

but to each their own...i dated a girl for 6 years...by your measure, i should specifically hang out with her just to measure how much i've grown and matured...not sure my fiancée would be okay with that, but that's irrelevant because it's all about ME

fwiw, i have no desire to hang out with any of my exes, and the vast majority ended amicably (read: no one cheated or lied)...i just figure that there are plenty of friends out there, i don't "need" one in particular to use as a yardstick against my maturity level

6/17/2010 9:25:17 AM

^^ Who said anything about hanging out with them? He said stay in contact with. Which probably means Facebook stalking.

6/17/2010 9:26:37 AM

LunaK - you forgot the " " around friends

I don't miss any of my ex's, they're lame and my fiance is awesome.

I use myself (odd as that may sound) as a yardstick. I know what I've been through in life. I know where I want to be going. On the occasion that I feel my judgment may be a bit off, I ask someone I trust. But an ex.. they would only be able to compare you with a frozen image of yourself, not any better I'd say than another relative might be at judging you. Sure, they knew you intimately, but then again... maybe they actually didn't.

and that frozen image usually isn't the one of you during your best times together. It's usually the person you were in the final stages of the relationship.

ah, good point...i did indeed make the jump from "in contact" to "hang out"

but my point still stands...there's no good reason to stay in contact with them (in most cases)...if i care enough, i can find out through mutual friends how they're doing, but staying in contact implies consistent communication (not "hey, it's been 5 years, how are you doing?")

you've seen high fidelity, yes? there are only one or two reasons you contact an ex out of the blue

other than that, which is also a bad idea, an ex is an ex for a reason, and nothing good comes out of maintaining a friendship with them (again, mark my difference between being "friends" and being "acquaintances")
