be a man, suck it up and apologize (whether you are right or wrong doesn't matter). It'll earn brownie points and she will be more likely to compromise in your favor.

I can say with 100% confidence that is a bad idea, and would result in me getting walked all over.



We talked for awhile, and basically agreed to talk w/ each other before hanging out w/ ex's. seemed reasonable.

You'd better nip that habit in the bud. I realize you're only 21 but sooner or later you're going to get burned by a workplace romance...All it takes is one jilted workplace lover to play the sexual harassment card and your ass is toast.

This was when I worked at best buy... I work for a corporate office where it is like freakin 97% male, and the 3% female are not hittable.

Tell her to have sex with the dude, then your even problem solved:)

Okay here's what you do Zixxer. When she calls back, you tell her "I had to post a message on an internet message board to ask people on the internet what to say to you. I told them that I'm mainly just being an asshole, making a point."

Go from there.

Wait a second. I was like "wow these sound like people I know" then I realized you're from atlanta!!! Do Rachael and Becca go to VSU? If so who is this because I probably know you?

that being said.....Tuna!

Agreed.

Also agreed.

Still, though, just point out that you were just chatting with them, and just because you're now going out with this other person, that doesn't mean you can no longer talk to your friends.

You guys aren't getting it.... this wasn't started by me "getting back at her"... it was started by her getting back at me. i.e. I am hanging out w/ becca and other friends (which I've been doing for awhile) and rachel got pissy, called an ex-bf and hung out w/ him for the afternoon. She was the one 'retaliating..'


I then made plans w/ a couple of girls I use to bang.. what's the harm?

Her 'issue' is that since she didn't sleep w/ this guy there won't be any flirting - and that since these were chicks I had slept with then the "temptation" would be there... I was basically like you have no reason not to trust me... and that the whole 'she didn't sleep with him' thing is stupid considering they were young(er) when they dated anyway.

If you expect her to have no problems with you hanging out with multiple women you used to have sex with (and she's not around when you do it), then you should have no problems with her hanging out with a guy she used to date. Obviously you two are not in a relationship where you trust each other completely.

That's your problem right there.

Rachel is at her dad's surgery, probably stressed out. Meanwhile you are having a good old time with a couple of chicks you used to date/bang. She is trying to make you feel the same way she does by going out with some guy. But you fail to see that.

Sorry man, i don't think you have a defense. Put in some quality time with your woman instead of more time with becca.

Indeed.

Most girls aren't laid back to let you hang out with girls you use to bang or ex's. You either see less of them or find another girl that is more laid back.

grow up. hopefully next time "Rachel" won't fall for a guy that isn't confident enough to say when something bugs him and does silly retaliatory stuff instead of dealing with the issue.
