but if you're aware of this, which I am with many of my ex's, why not use it to your advantage. They're using you, so you might as well use them.

Actually I broke up with her. This was last winter. She remained hopeful and tried to get me back right up until I met my new GF about 3 months ago, and even then it was "Have you had sex with her yet?". WTF? About a week later she started seeing someone new, but sometimes I wonder what she'd say if I said I wanted her back, simply because she seemed so desperate not to let me go. Not that I would do such a thing. There's a number of very good reasons I broke up with her, and I adore my new GF. When I broke up with my ex I was afraid I was making a bad decision, but it's like night and day the difference between how I felt about my ex and how I feel about my new girl. I can't explain it.

Didn't remember until I got home last night and I actually felt kind of bad. But after reading her little message I couldn't give a sh1t.

I'm not even sure why I keep in touch with her. Seems like it could end up just being bad news. Ex: She messaged me AGAIN this morning saying she'd be in my hometown in November and implied that she wanted to see me. Fvck that.

so quit her. what are you waiting for?

Back in town? That means she doesn't live near you, which means you can tap it once or twice while she's around and not have to deal with too many consequences :D

I used to do that too, but when a couple of them died one weekend I felt bad about it and decided in the future I should at least keep in touch (to the decent ones) once in awhile.

Is that weird? wrong?

...but I don't even remember their birthday's much less call them specifically for that reason. Nor do I expect any calls on my birthday.

wait, a couple of your exes died in the same weekend? uh...so where did you bury their bodies?

thats fvcking weird

Yeah, what happened?

I'm pretty close with all my exes...if not, I'm at least "cool" with them. I'm an adult...I understand that relationships end...no need to get juvenile about it. It sometimes hurts...and some of them I'll never get "over" but it's worth it, to me, to keep them in my life.

<--- Usually does the dumping.

Only acceptable call after hours from a girl should be a booty call.

Either get a piece, or GTFO :p

Tell her to s on your d, you're not dating anymore, and from the sound of it you don't talk much.

seriously what is it with ATOT and not having the ability to deal with people...

this situation is solved as easily as deleteing her message and not giving it a second thought....just like spam

hint-you dont even have to read the message before deleteing it if you dont want...

Glad I'm not the only one who caught that. ;) I actually read every reply up to this one to see if I'd be reposting or not. :D

Oh yeah, to the OP: Stop being a whiny little shell of a man and forget your past already. Wuss.

It can't have been THAT good. And even if you think it was, remember this:

The best way to get over someone...is to get under someone else.

That'll clear out those nasty little memories right quick.
