It would be better if she drew her name on your forehead rather than a hickey. I'd be pissed! Well, unless you passed out at a party and then it's fair game to do whatever to your forehead.
Golden rule: do to others as you would want them to do to you
She was kissing me a lot a few nights ago. Forget how it went down exactly, but she got a little too carried away on my forehead. I got her back last night and gave her one as payback.
And sda, I know all too well how that situation can be.
How is it my man? Im just not interested in being friends with an ex girlfriend and every now an then try's to check up on me. This weekend is the first time since the summer I've spoken to her an Ive moved on but vacation with her? My favorite thing with one of my least?
Tips bro.
Really all you can do is make the best of it, my friend. If she's gonna be part of your group and you really don't wanna spend much if any time with her I wouldn't divulge your schedule. Not to anyone who might tell her either. That way you can at least try and get away.
And most importantly just don't let it ruin your 'Roo!

lol, thanks for the advice. But yeah she'll never ruin my bonnaroo/shows/expeierence
What do you do when your ex emails you at work with like- a 5 page letter telling you how they just miss talking to you and being able to bullsh!t about music and movies, etc..
I wouldn't mind talking to him, ya know? but I don't wanna do ANYYthing that gives the wrong impression because I've long since moved on, and I feel almost like he hasn't.. I don't know. I just don't want to have problems with the new boyfriend because the Ex is trying to "weasel his way in". But the ex does know about the new one, and respects it.
So I guess really, the question is- is it ever okay to talk to an ex? If so, why does it bother guys sooo much? I'm friends with everybody. I'm not one of those people that doesn't like someone because a relationship didn't work. I'm friends with all my exes. (well except for one, but that's a totally long, different, ridiculous story)..

Just make sure he knows that's all it'll ever be. Thats about all you can do aside from ignore him. And make sure ur current bf knows y'all are just friends. Don't keep it a secret from him because that looks really, REALLY bad. That's one thing I and I would think most people can't stand.

sda- AG is sooo right, one little insignificant person, that you probably won't see all weekend if you play your cards right, should not ruin your roo.. All us crazy fucks should have you geeking all weekend

It just sucks.. I kind of feel like I'm in the wrong somehow. why should I feel guilty though? I havent even emailed him back anything.. just cuz I don't know what to say..?
Maybe I'll just ignore the whole thing. That stops everything and anything from happeneing. I live like 100 miles away from him now, so it's not like I'm going to run into him anywhere. Ugh.. I just feel like that's mean though- and I don't know how to be mean. I'm ridiculous. Sitting here having a conversation with myself. Ha, Good lordy.

I've been there. Ur not doing anything wrong. If ur bf has a problem with u being friends then tell him to get over it. Ur old enough to be friends with an ex and just be friends. I'm friends with most of mine except the crazy ones . Or the ones crazier than me I suppose

You're right. It's stupid of me to think about it too, because I got a pretty decent guy, that i'm pretty sure wouldn't freak too much. He's very secure with me, and he knows that I would never stray.
Haha, ohhh the crazies.. I could talk all day about crazy freaking relationships. Why are they attracted to me is what I wanna know!?

I wouldn't bother with your ex if you have a new boyfriend. I just think it complicates things and adds extra tension. I doubt your ex really just wants to be friends with you. If my new girlfriend still talked to an old ex I'd be weary about continuing the relationship. No guy sends a 5 page e-mail hoping to be "friends".
Then again I don't talk to any of the girls I've been with once we stopped hanging out.
And thanks to everyone, she can't ruin my Bonnaroo even if she's in my group because of all the greatness that will be surrounding me.

It just sucks. Like- whyyy can't it just BE OKAY..? Why do people feel stupid feelings like jealousy and envy and all those other ugly emotions? But I do see your point about the letter thing(which really wasn't 5, but probably a good 3) I guess you can't have your cake and eat it too huh?
I think that's the worst thing about breakups.. not the tears, or harsh words.. not the flying rumors, or late night texts that you type 100 times before you send it.. but the actual loss of such an amazing person.. I mean honestly. All of my exes were super cool. Really good personalities, awesome music taste, pretty level head.. And now I can't be friends with them because my new one gets what? JEALOUS.
*sigh*.. Can't we all just live in absolute peace, and trust, and harmony, and love?
maemae, I'm late to the party here, but I am friends with my ex boyfriend! We dated for over 4 years and the breakup was amicable. He was really my best friend and it felt strange to just completely cut him out. So we remained friends, and when either of us started dating other people, we would tell them about it..... and if they had a problem with it, tough poop.
I actually went to my ex's wedding. I met his now-wife before they started dating, and she know me/about our past and was totally ok with it (therefore she was a keeper). They are happily married with two kids now, and I am genuinely happy for them both. He married the right gal.
I know that our friendship isn't the norm, but it CAN happen!

I agree with sda. He doesn't just wanna be friends but you need to make sure he knows that its all its gonna be and if he cant deal with that then you need to tell him that yall cant talk until he can. its tough but its the best idea.
and there is a place like that. we go once a year for a weekend and its called bonnaroo ;D ;D ;D ;D
Haha, maemae, reminds me of what went down with al and I the other night. He told me his ex fiancé he hasn't seen or talked to in thirteen years is going to be in town and wants to catch up over drinks. Totally platonic, she is engaged with five children. I told him go if he wants. He said I could go as well. Hell no, I don't want to go! I'd be comparing myself to her the whole time. Fuck that. He says he can flake out if I don't want him to go. I assure him that it is ok, but I just wouldn't want to go. So he tells her he can meet her and she asks if he told me " the whole story". So I'm thinking, 'what the fuck is the whole story!?'. Turns out, just that they were exes meeting. Ha. She told her fiancé she is meeting a guy she used to work with. Lol. Al said, "Good luck with that marriage". Hahaha.
sda, why is your ex in your group anyway? Did someone else invite her? Sorry, it just sounds like a headache to have an ex hanging around...
We have mutual friends so yeah. It is kinda weird to have her there but I'll have to deal with it and drink a lot of beer.
The more I think about I get a little more sketched out but then I think of Bonnaroo and Radiohead, Moon Taxi, and Black Star. It's going to be an eventful weekend for fucksure
I doubt your ex really just wants to be friends with you.
But I do see your point about the letter thing(which really wasn't 5, but probably a good 3)
Maemae, I just doubt any unusual communication from an ex (i.e. the super long email). If he had just been like, "hey what up? thought of you when i heard this band the other day" the end - well then maybe he's just sayin' hey. But this letter sounds like more. AND - you say he knows about the new beau and he "respects it"....... I wouldn't say he respects your new relationship if he's writing you long long emails about how much he misses you.
Always a good idea to flip it around and see how you'd react if you were in the opposite position. If your new bf got a long ass email from his ex, would you want him to write her back? I say if you feel like your new beau won't care if you write back, and you are confident that you can be reeeeally nonchalant and easy-going when you respond, and not be misleading - then email the ex back.

What is it with people and not telling their sig other the whole story for something that shouldnt be important? I had the same thing come up once when I was back in my college town for the weekend and was going to grab a drink with an ex of 7 years. For some strange reason she didnt tell her bf that she was going to have a drink with a guy she talks to a few times a year and hadnt seen in probably 4.
There just does not need to be that level of secrecy over something that should be rather trivial. The woman I'm seeing texts and talks to her ex-bf occasionally. No biggie. She's with me bc (and I'm only speculating here) she likes me. So why worry about some dude that she's broken up with before?
i don't understand in general what the deal is with people being dishonest or "omitting" things.
i know that not being super nice about things is something i struggle with, but there has got to be a way for people to stop pussyfooting around. every relationship i've started as adult, i've always stressed how much honesty is important to me. i can forgive so much more if i know about it up front and not as a lie or a coverup or an omission.
also too, sooooo tired of people just cutting someone off when they want to end something. i cannot tell you how many girlfriends (and a few guys) have complained about how they were casually seeing someone and that person just stopped talking to them out of nowhere. no fight, no nothing. i would rather someone tell me i am a raging hooker with poop breath than just stop talking to me without telling me why.
