VenusInFurs Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 I didn't know where else to post this, oh well here it goes. I'm going to a friend's party tomorrow, and my ex will be there. I normally see him once every few months at social gatherings, and it's always awkward and he's always being way too friendly. I want to ask you guys how I should act around him. Over a year ago, he dumped me (by text...the lame coward) after an intense six month relationship. I fell in love with him, like completely and utterly and stupidly in love. I think he was just in it for the sex, but I'll never know, he didn't give me any closure. Just messed around with my head and strung me along for a month afterward. He contacts me every now and then to ask me stuff about my life and, in my opinion, try to instigate some sort of 'booty call'. Of course, he's never going to have a chance with me again, and I'm with someone else at the moment who I love (although we're having problems). That isn't relevant at all though, I'd never consider doing anything with my ex. But... I still harbour a lot of resentment towards him for how he treated me back then and generally think he's a manipulative, selfish slime creature. But... I can't exactly act too hateful/cold to him for many reasons. 1) It's my friend's birthday and it's unfair to cause tension. 2) It's been over a year and most people would assume I've buried the hatchet, as it were. How should I act guys? This is going to be so awkward, and there's a probability he's going to 'try it on' with me, and if he does it's going to be difficult to fight the urge to SLAP HIM.
JustinWolf Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 So what? if he does try, act on it, slap him. Seriously. go there and have a fun time if he tries to initiate some kind of conversation just say you don't want to talk. Stay away from him and it should be okay.
quankanne Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 laugh in his face like you can't believe how stupid he sounds/looks and he doesn't get it. Then walk away. I guarantee that'll cut him down to size. Because no one likes to be made to feel like the butt of a joke.
Author VenusInFurs Posted July 26, 2008 Author Posted July 26, 2008 So should I slap him, then laugh, or laugh and then slap??? Oh gawd I'm not looking forward to this one bit. I hate public drama.
Angel1111 Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 Just be polite if you run into him but don't make it a point to approach him. If he talks to you, don't offer a lot of information and walk away as soon as would be considered polite. Don't do anything to give him the impression that he means anything to you or that you still want to flush his head down the toilet. It'll totally piss him off.
