Exes you used to like and can't stand now?

I actually don't have any exes I don't like (love them, really).

 

However, most of them don't like me too much. :o

P.S. I have an ex who likes to say, "Yes, I still love you. Except now, I prefer to love you at a distance - a very great distance!" :D

I always thought it would be interesting to work a couple of lines that I came up with into a song...

 

 

 

When the voice that gave you goosebumps makes your skin crawl

 

and...

 

When the butterflies in your tummy make you nauseous

 

 

 

 

I don't really want to concentrate on the ex long enough to write the song though. :D:mad::evil: I might get nauseous.

There's a few I'm glad to be rid of, one I honestly can say I cannot stand -a 4 year relationship that had no business lasting longer than 6 months (file that under; 'Curse me for believing!!!'). And finally a few with whom it just was not meant to be.....but damn, when it was happening it was so nice. I wonder what ever happened to those girls? I hope they're having fulfilling lives.....even though I'm not involved. :D

I file this one under "Dear Lord, please give Deb, Lynette, Susan, Lisa,..etc. a good life, so they won't f*cking call me!" :eek:

I want my ex to be very stable and happy. Not because I particularly like her, no, but to increase the odds that she stays out of my life as much as possible! Unfortunately, as those of you who share a child through a previous relationship know, those kind of exes can never really go away. They just keep coming back. Like herpes.

Uh, yeah...I think I get where you're coming from.

 

I happened to run into one of my 'formers' a while back, and we had the requisite chat, and when I looked at her I could see in her eyes the look of "Ya know, it could still work between us". I get the willies just thinking about it.

 

She's the type I could see knocking on my door at midnight.

Formers, whether you ever married them or not, can present very awkward situations when you find yourself in a position of "having" to communicate on a routine basis relative to the job. What's bad is when a guy you dumped 20 years ago for BS reasons becomes one of your BIG BOSSES; I'm talking upper, UPPER MANAGEMENT.

 

I never provided him any reasons for calling the relationship off way back then and when he called to see if he could return my Bass Guitar, I told him to keep it because I didn't want to see him again. Anyway, his friends began asking me if he and I had been going out.... and I flat out denied all association with him because it was THAT aggravating to me at the time. We ended up going to opposite facilities... and pretty much buried the hatchet... burned the bridge.... or whatever you want to call it.

 

The TMS Coordinator detail that I've been doing for the past several months... well this guy is the link between regional and HQ and he has remote access to the systems that I oversee. He calls me up every now and then and asks me what's going on to make sure I feel comfortable with being able to handle the issues at hand... Almost every time he has called, it has been as a result of me being taken off of the TMS to manage in another area and then getting pulled back to the TMS after someone else that was put on the job let it spiral out of control; the conversations have been short and to the point while laying out my plan of attack... he's always been comfortable with my approach for resolve, so there's no need for lengthy conversations. I keep it 100% professional.

 

Yesterday, we were having technical issues with the system that were difficulties that neither I or the entire maintenance department could seem to work out. I discussed the complicated situation with my immediate manager and explained to him the adverse impact the system downtime was having on operations. My manager called the ex from his office and then called me in to speak with him on the phone. It was bizzarre.... For the first time I found myself HAVING to depend on this guy that I had kicked to the curb 20 some years ago :o He was SO nice, and I felt so freaking weird talking to him for an extended period of time while troubleshooting the problems...

 

Just to break some of "my" anxiety, I created a joke about the bugs in the system being a seed planted by Lockheed Martin as a planned April Fool's Day gag... sort of like Y2K. In saying April, it reminded me that he was an Aries, and without thinking another thought about it; I wished him a happy birthday. He sounded startled that I had remembered after all these years... and I almost felt embarrassed for having mentioned it. I hope that he doesn't think that I want him back.... that's not the case. I don't believe in back peddling to get to where you're going.

Thing is when you create another life together, you are bonded to that person....forever, no matter how much you may want to be rid of that person, no matter how much you might hate them. You are bonded to them, by blood, by your mixed DNA, and by the very fact that you both want the very best for that child.

Trust me Super8, I had my reasons for calling it quits. I don't think that he needed an explanation as to why if he paid attention to anything that was going on around him when I told him that I didn't want to see him anymore.... You've also got to realize that I wouldn't just sacrifice a bass guitar without some pretty deeply seeded hurt. He's also one of the main reasons that I stopped dating men on my job...

 

and

 

I think that he knows better.

For the most part, I think they are exes *because* you can't stand them anymore - otherwise you'd still be with them, no?

 

:D

 

I think that SOME exes are okay as friends... nothing more though.
