Banega100 Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Broke up a few months ago. The only thing my hope clings to now is the fact that whenever we are around each other its impossibly awkward. Now, im not deluded that i think that there's something there, because if a girl likes you she's with you, but what is the explanation for this excruciating awkwardness? Some one explain, so that my irrational break up brain doesnt use it as evidence that there is something still there...
stoploss11 Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 you never know with what others are thinking or What games they are playing. Fun and games until someone gets hurt.... The more you analyze the more conclusions you will come up with. They all dont mean anything.
skydiveaddict Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 Some one explain, so that my irrational break up brain doesnt use it as evidence that there is something still there... No, there is nothing there. You shouldn't even be hanging around her at all. But don't feel bad, my brain is still irrational too.
Ajax Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 I think that the awkwardness comes partly from the fact that there was once a connection between you that no longer exists. You know it was there but you can't acknowledge it. It's the elephant in the room. You're also both putting on a dog and pony show trying to act like you're "OK" with what happened. Even if you are ok with it, you want to make sure your ex knows you're ok with it so you both overcompensate for it.
Author Banega100 Posted October 20, 2010 Author Posted October 20, 2010 i'm not hanging with her by any stretch of the imagination. Don't worry. Same college. Yeah, good. It's horrendous. I've been holding it together so much better than her. Which is ridiculous since she broke with me. I had to sell tickets for a gig in her class and she couln't look up. My game face was on. But it was fckin hard. Wished she'd gone some where else.

But it was fckin hard. Wished she'd gone some where else. Sorry you're in that position. I don't think I'd be able to keep it together if I ever saw my ex. Even when the pain's gone I think it will be awkward. Just that sense of having been so close and now being strangers. It's unnerving to me. My ex also has the ability to just ignore her past and cut people out as if they were never a part of her life to begin with. I'm pretty sure she's done that to me already.
Author Banega100 Posted October 28, 2010 Author Posted October 28, 2010 any one else with suggestions as to why it's impossibly awkward between exes after you break up?
collegeguy_24 Posted October 28, 2010 Posted October 28, 2010 refresh my memory, did she dump you? If so, then there is a reason for her being awkward when she runs into he man she left of her own free will.
Author Banega100 Posted October 29, 2010 Author Posted October 29, 2010 yeah, she ended it. what do you mean mate?
