Venting about my Ex

(snip)If she really cant take the time to hang out with someone she was best friends with for 2 years, maby its time to completly let go. Bitch.


1) She was not your best friend for two years, she was your girlfriend for two years.

...and she is not your girlfriend anymore. She will find a new boyfreind. He will not want her hanging around with her ex boyfriend. If you were in his shoes, would you?

2) Yes. It IS time to "completely let go".


Good luck.

Bwahahaha I like itttt

Man, I'm serious. I'm sickened by this mentality being normalized and accepted in society. Everytime I encounter some drifty girl with her mind in the past, constantly running her mouth in one way or another about her ex(es), for whatever reason (she shouldn't be mentioning them AT ALL), I feel like bursting out: "Why don't you sod off and go sodomize him/them then, if you miss him/them that much?".
I don't care about the past, I care about the present. But if the present consists of her living in the past, fucjkit.
 
No offense to any females here as men are guilty of it also.

Some people are like monkeys , they don't let complety go of one branch untill they have a firm grasp on another one.

Sounds like she has grabbed another branch dude.
Move on.

So about 2 months ago my girlfriend and i had a mutual breakup. We had dated for 2 years. We broke up on relativly good terms, it was just that we had both grown apart and had pretty different interests by the end of the relationship. But i still would like to hang out with her as friends and ever since shes been interested in this new dude shes been treating me like chopped liver. I dont know if i should keep atemping to keep a friendship between us or just tell her to fu*k off. If she really cant take the time to hang out with someone she was best friends with for 2 years, maby its time to completly let go. Bitch.

Why tell her to F-off, it's perfectly kosher for two ex-lovers to go seperate ways. Why burn a bridge? Nothing good can come except a momentary feeling of satisfaction to the ego. Instead just move on with your life. You'll be happier in the long run knowing you are growing as a mature person, not that you aren't now but high-risk emotions makes us do and say dumb things often. BTW, recently shared a similar experience with an ex of 4 years... we are at "friends" status, but never talk. That's cool.

Yeah, no reason to be rude about it, or even go out of your way to avoid her in any way. Just don't hang out, talk all the time or any of that. If you see her, be friendly, but distant... No reason to come across as petty and immature, it makes it so much harder to sleep with her friends for revenge. (kidding)
