Yeah! But make sure he's IN the truck when she glues the doors shut!! Wouldnt do her much good if she did it after. Then he would NEVER leave. Or worse yet, he'd ask to drive the Jeep. Then SHE wouldnt have a vehicle!!

1. Facebook reunions can be a bad idea

AMEN AMEN AND AMEN!!! Yea your not the only one with FB isssues with people sometimes the past belongs there. I hope you recover soon and unfriend him and block him.

What a story and what a time you had of it, glad you got rid of the lazy git though, but dont' beat yourself up about being foolish letting him into your life, you were being the nice guy and he was just taking the p**s!!
Big hugs for ya!!

5. One big mistake: My ‘GO AWAY’ doormat was outside my door; I should have moved it inside.


Love that! You made a mistake, everyone makes mistakes. Especially emotional people like us. But you didnt allow it to continue and you did the right thing.

You did the right thing and you still kept your sense of humor! Atta girl!!!!

The past belongs in the past. Pleasant memories.

Not fit for a monk, I had a girlfriend before I met my wife. Pretty
girl, she was. That was many years ago.

Fast forward to a few years ago, the girlfriends father died and she
came home for the funeral. (She had moved out of the area after school)

She and I did speak on the telephone. I never saw her, didn't really want to.
In my mind she will forever be the beautiful girlfriend she once was. Ageless,
and without flaw.

Let that memory remain. Forever.

I didn't even attend her fathers funeral. I did speak with the funeral home in
private. I paid for her fathers funeral. In respect for the mentor he was to me
in my youth, and in respect to honor his daughter who will always be a bright
spot in my memory.

I remain in touch with her mother. She's alone now. Kids grown and gone.
Doesn't hurt me to check on her.

But I've never seen the girl since high school. No wish to.

I have wonderful memories of her. And I hope that if she remembers me at all,
that her memories be cherished. Unclouded by who we've become.

Actually, he's a very good looking guy. Tall, nice features, etc. (although way too thin). But it's amazing how unattractive a man can suddenly get based on his behavior....

Ha! That's funny!

Quote:
He still calls and emails! First he said he "hopes we can start over and pretend the bad things never happened", to which I answered that I can never pretend all that didn't happen. Then he'll call to "see how my day was", or emails. I just try and act casual and distant. I just tell him to not worry about me, that I was fine living alone before he got here, and I'll be fine now. I'm very clear that I don't need or miss him. I think HE thinks he's going to straighten out his separation and we might get together. I keep reiterating that him coming here was a mistake and that he needs to just work on himself. No, I haven't out right told him to go to he** because there is that suicide attempt history and I don't want to be cruel, but I am not being misleading either. I just tell him it's not in the cards for us, and he needs to go reclaim his life. He agrees with everything I say like a puppy, it's sad.

I may have posted this already, but at one point he asked if I can still be here to "help". I said, "I'm emotionally, physically & financially bankrupt right now, I can't imagine what help I could give". He said "Just some advice and emotional support". I told him I can't give him advice, it's too taxing on me to tell him what things HE needs to do, and that he needs to start learning how to make his own decisions. Of course he agreed like a puppy again.

VERY good point. Talk about cutting off my nose to spite my face....

Oh, God yeah. I would have hung myself a long time ago if it weren't for being able to laugh at things. Makes me think of years ago, in my early 20's, I used to live in Brooklyn, NY with like 5 roommates.....those were the days. Anyway, when me and my best friend were someplace, say in a checkout line joking around, and there was some stiff in front of us being all crabby, we would say "Looks like someone had a Humorectomy......"

They can take my money, my health, my pride, but they can never take away my ability to write sarcastically about my own failures!!!

And that's why we love reading your posts.
