The Truth About Ex’s
Here’s the thing. I’m not debating that you cannot be friends with your ex, but formality is one thing and true friendship is another. I’m writing this article under the assumption that your ex-boyfriend or girlfriend is someone who you wanted to spend your life with, and things went awry.
Under that assumption, here are the things that are absolute horse shit.
- You can be good friends with your ex and have someone else that you deeply care about as well. – HELL NO. Oh yeah… so you know the person who you saw naked at some point, your beautiful mind will NEVER EVER think about that again right?......... And the memories you guys have had?........ What a joke
- Your past love wont change you– Ever heard the phrase “No man can walk through a river twice.. For he is not the same man, nor is the water in the river” Yeah.. Every person who has been fortunate to have a piece of you mentally, physically or both, changes you. Your trust value changes and what you learn to want out of life also changes. Each life experience helps you learn and helps you grow. There are some however, you just shouldn’t go through.
- You will always love the very first person you dated – Not true. The key word here is always. Certain people are unable to overcome the magical infatuation they had when the word bills, compromise, sacrifice and bullshit didn’t exist in their early teens. Others, like most, evolve and change. Hence, the what was I thinking?!
- No Awkwardness- Unless you guys casually dated and had no sense of true attachment, there is no way in hell meeting an ex is not awkward. You could very well be over the person and you haven’t thought of them in a million years, STILL…..
