So I ran into my ex gf at the computer show today...

I said hello, and we talked for a couple minutes, it was good to see she's doing well. I thought about how things used to be after I finished chatting her up. I really didn't have much chemistry with her when we dated. In fact, I don't remember much about our relationship. I vaguely remember the sex, but it wasn't that good, unless she was drunk.

Anyway, it got me thinking, how do you define "chemistry" in relationship terms? Do you need to know what they are thinking without them saying anything? Do you need to finish their sentences? DO chemistry and soulmates go hand in hand?

Is it possible to just be content with the relationship, and let that be the indicator? I don't mean "going through the motions" or "stuck in a rut", but just being content, knowing that the other person is there if you need them, that kind of stuff.

I'm just wondering if I'm afraid of settling for second best, or if I'm shooting to high.

The Eagles song "Desperado" comes to mind here

Sorry, no pics. We dated four years ago, I had no reason to keep pics.

First step, be honest with yourself. It's never good to see the ex doing well. We all want that person to be slightly miserable and wanting those good ol' times back. Is it right? Eh. Is it honest? Yes. Honesty = right.

Sure, we all have that impulse at the beginning, but if you can't get over that after 4 years, you have issues.

Unless she was a bitch who screwed you over.
 
If you ran into the girl at a computer show, then she isnt worth stressing over inthe first place.

 
I call BS, I highly doubt anyone goes to 'computer shows' anymore, futhermore I doubt you would see a girl there, let alone one girl who is an ex-gf.

In short, Daveymark, your full of BS.

All the entry level geeklings who still need to be sold a piece of hardware rather than knowing instinctively what's better go to computer shows. I went to one once - was scouting it for booth potential. Then I realized "Hey, I wouldn't fit in, I'm not asian, I don't badmouth my customers in asian languages and then laugh about it, and I don't attempt to pass off obviously used equipment from 1998 as brand new top of the line stuff"

Umm... Believe it not, some chicks actually LIKE computers! A rare few of them are even cute, too 🙂
