Also: I hope you got away from that ex girlfriend of yours. Breaking things off, then trying to get back together and questioning things that happened in the time off makes her seem like a very bad, controlling person that will drop you the moment someone “better” comes around.

Oh yeah, totally! I see her behavioral pattern now, but at the time I was oblivious. I must have frustrated her soooo bad. We eventually split but stay more distant friends. She gets a new boyfriend and wants me to meet him. I’m thinking to myself, “Sure. I got along great with her ex, so she probably has a type and I’ll get along with the new one.” I meet him and this guy is awesome! We get a long so great, we start hanging out apart from her, going rollerblading, playing pick-up sports, tail gating, etc. I’d be at a party and ask, “Yooo, it [exgf’s] boyfriend coming?”

Several years later, I tell my roommate who knew her about it. “You know who was cool? [Exgf’s] new boyfriend. I wonder what he’s up to.” My roommate said that she was trying to make me jealous. I was like, “Jokes on her! He became my friend so why would I be jealous?” No no no. That I would be jealous of him being with her. What? Why? Pfft, yeah right! After everything, why in the world would I want to be with her? As far as I was concerned, I felt more comfortable around her knowing that she had a boyfriend because boundaries would be clearly defined. She must have been soooo frustrated, she bought a copy of Forrest Gump just to play it and yell insults at the tv. lmaoooo
