Why breakups are awkward, 1.

Detangling.

You've been a part of a person's life for so long,and they've been a part of yours,mpaka by the time you're breaking up,there's a lot of stuff to detach from. All kinds of questions arise. Do I defriend them? Stop following them on Twitter? Delete their texts and their number? Are we still friends who can hang out and maybe cop a feel? If I comment on their status/photos will they think it's weird? Do I still talk to the friends of mine that I made through him/her? Can I talk to them about him/her...do I have to start paying for my own dates again??? Do I stop talking to his/her folks? How are we supposed to act around each other? Damnit,I need a new movie buddy...et al.

Aaaaawkward.

  3. Nothing personal,just business! An ex is an ex for a myriad of good f**ing reasons! As for the friends you met or made whilst you were tight,just treat them like markets and try separating them!

  6. as a keen follower, am tempted to ask..'oh, honey; wat happened?' but i won't! i'll say this..there's no friendship between exes, if there happens to be (never a good idea) it's either you're still in love with them, or you never loved them at all...

  8. @Dan Hehe. Even those extras, ermm...

    @lizdin Nothing happened. :o) It's jus on my mind, randomly. Like if something DID happen, lol! I'm still good friends with 2 out of 5 exes...one turned gay, one is, erm...long story. Hm. Next post, perhaps, after the series. :o)

    @knoppix I am for reFUSE!! It is perfectly possible to coexist peacefully with people of different races...after all, I share the earth with men. :D
