DenverBachelor Posted December 6, 2009 Posted December 6, 2009 Here's a couple of Hypothetical scenarios for you. You can pick any, a few, all to answer. I'm going to head to bed but there are some interesting people on here and I'm curious where some of you would stand in these situations. 1) If you were on the Titanic and there was one seat left in the last lifeboat, would you take it or give it to your recent ex? 2) Do you think you'd be a better person a year from now having never been in a relationship that eventually failed with your ex? 3) If you could remove any emotion that you have felt over the past few weeks or months, which emotion would you want to remove? 4) You and your ex are in a room. The room is sealed, no windows, illuminated by the walls themselves with two chairs in the middle and a water fountain and some nutritional supplements in a bowl. You are both forced into this room for three entire days. There are no laws in this room and anything goes. Sleeping is not allowed. What happens at the end of those three days? 5) And my favorite ... An asteroid is found to be headed right for Earth and will destroy everything in 24 hours. What do you do? Do you stay NC?

My answers: 1) I give it to my ex, but ONLY because I'm old school and let the women and children go first. Then I'd look at her and say, "I guess I won't break NC this time." 2) Absolutely not. I will be a much better person because of all this. This was the massive soul impact event that I have needed. The road out will be a tough one but eventually I'll get out of the forest. 3) Anger 4) This is a stupid question. 5) I'd call my ex up and let her know that this was entirely her fault.
Toki Posted December 6, 2009 Posted December 6, 2009 1. I'd give her the seat, and say "I hate you so much, right now." 2. Probably. 3. Regret 4. I'd talk for a bit, and then tell her to stay on her side of the room, and I'd stay on mine. 5. I would hardly care enough at that point about an ex. Hang with Family.
Author DenverBachelor Posted December 6, 2009 Author Posted December 6, 2009 1. I'd give her the seat, and say "I hate you so much, right now." or simply, "I'll see you in hell! (waves)"
puppydog Posted December 6, 2009 Posted December 6, 2009 haha. such interesting scenarios! 1) Recent ex...only so that he'd remember WHY he's alive. haha. 2) Still trying to process what I got out of this experience. 3) Sadness 4) We talk out our problems. 5) My family is more important.

I'm going to head to bed but there are some interesting people on here and I'm curious where some of you would stand in these situations. 1) If you were on the Titanic and there was one seat left in the last lifeboat, would you take it or give it to your recent ex? I'd give it to her. But I have the mindset that I'd take a bullet for close friends or family. I still love her and she still means a lot to me, so I'd take the bullet. 2) Do you think you'd be a better person a year from now having never been in a relationship that eventually failed with your ex? Absolutely not...I would never take back my experience with her. It had to happen the way it did... 3) If you could remove any emotion that you have felt over the past few weeks or months, which emotion would you want to remove? Frustration over not being able to find someone new. 4) You and your ex are in a room. The room is sealed, no windows, illuminated by the walls themselves with two chairs in the middle and a water fountain and some nutritional supplements in a bowl. You are both forced into this room for three entire days. There are no laws in this room and anything goes. Sleeping is not allowed. What happens at the end of those three days? Sleep dep for 3 days gets pretty severe where you'd start having hallucinations or worse. Add to that the isolation and lack of stimuli (besides each other) and you'd probably have two crazy people... 5) And my favorite ... An asteroid is found to be headed right for Earth and will destroy everything in 24 hours. What do you do? Do you stay NC? Yea. Nothing is breaking NC for me...unless she calls first... ..........

My replies.. 1) Def i give it to him 2) i dont think so..i learnt a bit from him during our relation 3) a lot could happen in this scenario....mmmm i think by the end of 3 days he wud go mad listening to my chatter 4) no i wont..i l still be asking him to come back to me...maybe we could die together
madrugada Posted December 6, 2009 Posted December 6, 2009 1. I'd give the seat to my ex. Absolutely. then I'd sit on her lap. 2. I've learned so much about myself through this whole mess, and if I can just hold on until the pain stops I'll be a better person having loved and lost. 3. Regret. I wish I could say anger, but there is no anger in me. Yet. 4. I wouldn't be able to keep my hands off her. 5. This is a tough one. I'd try not to call her, but man that would be tough.

Do you stay NC? 1) - I'd give it to her 2) - I would most definitely be better off never having met my ex. 3) - Love 4) - I'd cry for three days and she'd say nothing and then we'd never see each other again. 5) - I'd sit in a room with my kids and not think about her.....if I could.

Do you stay NC? 1) I would absolutely give up my seat 2) No, I would not be any different 3) Hmmmm. I would remove the anxiety maybe? And the pain. 4) I would try to talk about the relationship, she would resist/be uncomfortable, we would try to talk about "normal" things, it would hurt me too much to hear about her life without me. Ultimately I would push things and end up venting/yelling. She would pretend to sleep or whatever. It would be a disaster. 5) That one hurts too much to answer. If I was the only one who knew the asteroid was coming, I would likely drive over there and try to talk. But if she also knew it was coming, she wouldn't want to spend her last hours with me...which hurts like hell to say.

I would take the seat. Our son needs me more than his dad. 2. No I would want the relationship. I didn't learn about myself until the divorce. 3. exhaustion 4. We would chit chat. 5. I'm not nc with my ex. It is amicable. I would probably do what I could to make my son comfortable. And I'm sure my ex would be there.

An asteroid is found to be headed right for Earth and will destroy everything in 24 hours. What do you do? Do you stay NC? 1) I do not know, never saw the movie, but I always did kinda had something for Kate Winslett so maybe I would stick around do my best Leonardo and see if I could rock the boat with her. 2) Did you say better or bitter...possibly both 3) I would remove the saracatic emoticon, I just do not think it sufficiently offers a needed nuance to project a proper pasquinade. 4) A double homicide from asphyxiation. (isn't this the plot for SAW 27) 5) NC, NC? who is thinking of NC, I would jump on a plane to England to do my best Leonardo and see if I could find a hottie with an accent and see if I could make Big Ben bong before the hour, hell in that environment of desperation, I may even have a chance!
Arabella Posted December 6, 2009 Posted December 6, 2009 1. I'd give it to him. I'd do anything I could to make sure he's okay. 2. No. I learned a lot about myself in this relationship, even if it didn't work out. 3. The anguish of missing him. 4. We'd find a way to pass the time, as we always did. If he was in a depressed mood, I'd probably talk endlessly... and he would just listen. 5. Hell no. I'd go see him and tell him how much I care about him one last time. Arabella

What happens at the end of those three days? 5) And my favorite ... An asteroid is found to be headed right for Earth and will destroy everything in 24 hours. What do you do? Do you stay NC? My answers as at this moment in time... 1. I'd give her the seat.. and probably my coat too, cos she doesn't handle the cold so well... 2. I've learnt a hell of a lot about me and its all thanks to her.. 3. jealousy (of the paranoid kind) made me say hurtful things. 4. We come out friends cos thats all she wants and making small talk for 3 days would make me realise I want her to be happy and that would make her happy and I love being a tortured soul. 5. Yes, and I would offer to drop her down to her family and friends so she can be with them, and then I'd leave... Now, the answers I would want to give when I am healed in the future. 1. Yes, and then I'd stick an axe in the bottom of the boat. 2. No, I'd be very angry I wasted so much time on her after our breakup cos I met a fantastic person and wished i could've known her sooner. 3. love and hope (is that an emotion) again, I wasted FAR too much time on the ex and I started on with my life later than I should've.. 4. I'd walk out happy having eaten all the nutrional supplements on day 1 and peed in the fountain, fck her, she got my seat on the titanic, I ain't gonna share with her now. and since i am not obliged to listen to her try and force me to be friends with her I am gonna sit with my fingers in my ears for 3 days singing over and over "I know a song that will get on your nerves, get on your nerves, get on your nerves, I know a song that will get on your nerves all day long.." and repeat.. 5. If she didn't want me in life, she ain't gonna get me in death, I wanna go out with a pint of guinness in one hand, a cuban in the other, my pants around my ankles and be surrounded by the dallas cowboys cheerleading squad, in fact, if that happened, I'd prob take a pic and send it to her...

Do you stay NC? 1) If you were on the Titanic and there was one seat left in the last lifeboat, would you take it or give it to your recent ex? Honestly, I'd see if they would want to give it up to me first. 2) Do you think you'd be a better person a year from now having never been in a relationship that eventually failed with your ex? I think I will be better in 1 year having gone thru this relationship with my ex. 3) If you could remove any emotion that you have felt over the past few weeks or months, which emotion would you want to remove? definitely Confused one. 4) You and your ex are in a room. The room is sealed, no windows, illuminated by the walls themselves with two chairs in the middle and a water fountain and some nutritional supplements in a bowl. You are both forced into this room for three entire days. There are no laws in this room and anything goes. Sleeping is not allowed. What happens at the end of those three days? We would probably have sex and then on the 3rd day, argue to the point that the windows burst open by themselves. 5) And my favorite ... An asteroid is found to be headed right for Earth and will destroy everything in 24 hours. What do you do? Do you stay NC? Yes. True to the end.

Do you stay NC? 1 - Nice Guy syndrome- I'm sure I'd give it to her. 2- Definitely a better person. Disappointed in myself that I didn't trust my instincts regarding her early and the advice of mutual friends to be careful. 3- Anger - see answer 2. I've gone from hurt, to anger to finally, Pity for her. The anger and hurt had the biggest impact on me. 4 - I'd like to render her unconscious for 3 days, then take all the supplements...but our sexual tension and chemistry would probably takeover and we'd end up bangin' most of the time. 5 - I'd be with those most important to me, my family..
slamina Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Why the hell are so many of you guys giving up your seat...what are you...crazy????...or just not over them? You know what I'd do...NOT GIVE HER MY SEAT...but not before Ive already made a point of pushing her overboard!
silic0ntoad Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 1) If you were on the Titanic and there was one seat left in the last lifeboat, would you take it or give it to your recent ex? --Hell no. She wasn't worth the bullet before, she sure as hell isn't now. Besides, I've got plots to dominate the world that need furthering, and death would definately be a small hinderance to those goals. 2) Do you think you'd be a better person a year from now having never been in a relationship that eventually failed with your ex? -- No. I am a better person for the suffering and pain. I learned alot about me, and relationships in the process. 3) If you could remove any emotion that you have felt over the past few weeks or months, which emotion would you want to remove? --Regret. I wish I hadn't made the mistakes I made. But then again, I wouldn't be happy, so who knows? 4) You and your ex are in a room. The room is sealed, no windows, illuminated by the walls themselves with two chairs in the middle and a water fountain and some nutritional supplements in a bowl. You are both forced into this room for three entire days. There are no laws in this room and anything goes. Sleeping is not allowed. What happens at the end of those three days? --I'd probably not say anything the entire time. Honestly, I would refuse to accept her presence. Things are over and buried between us; no need to dig up corpses and try to fix old problems. 5) And my favorite ... An asteroid is found to be headed right for Earth and will destroy everything in 24 hours. What do you do? Do you stay NC? --I would break NC once. One final time. Just for a small statement. I'd call her and tell her simply this: Despite how we ended, my love for you was genuine, and I die knowing that what I gave you was pure in ever sense of the word and definition. Then I'd go bang as many girls as possible, visit as many places as I could, and in general be a nut for the last 24 hours of humanity's exsistence.

Well, she always tried to be captain of the ship so.....I'm old school though, so of course give it to her. 2. I was a better person before but now I'm a tougher person. It remains to be seen if that was a good trade off. 3. To me it was the ALL or NOTHING feeling.....either let her come back to me begging, pleading and apologizing or let me forget her enitrely. 4. She would complain about how hot the room is, then I would comfort her, she would tell me how I screwed everything up, we would argue, then have sex (just the way she is), she would then eat all the food, we would argue again, she'd throw the water at me, have sex again, fall asleep, argue...repeat. 5. I'd be too busy with people that actually care about me. Edited December 7, 2009 by DustySaltus
