a certain ex of mine has recently informed me that she will be coming back into town. she had asked me if i would be interested in meeting up with her and some of our mutual friends for dinner.
it is not terribly uncommon for me to stay in touch with my exes. i wouldn’t say that i share terribly close relationships with any of my exes at present, but i would say that i share pretty amicable relationships with most.
this one in particular is married to someone who absolutely hates me, though we’ve never met. i think it’s more of an insecurity thing. anyhow, whenever he is in town with her, she refuses to meet up (i encourage her to bring him along) for a cup of coffee or something.
it just so happens that she’ll be in town without him this time around and so it’ll be OK if we meet. i think i’m going to pull a jenny and tell her that it’ll be cooler if we don’t meet up. just think about how cool it’ll be to be able to say that we haven’t seen each other for X years! i don’t appreciate feeling like a friend of convenience.
Hey! The fact that i said “it would be cool to not see each other for X years” has nothing to do with friendship out of convenience! I just it would be cool to know someone long enough to not have seen them in so many years…. but I guess that just shows how old we’re getting. Oh well… I guess the only way to understand the intricacies of my mind is to walk in my shoes… I wear size 20 😉
