I wasn’t sure if I wanted to make this a private entry or not. It’s – not – for now. So all of the internets gets to enjoy it! 😀
——————————————–
So.
I got an email from the ex-boyfriend yesterday. For those of you who have known me a long time, you will be aware that said ex-boyfriend broke up with me in 2001. By phone. After I spent two weeks at his place. Which is 1000 miles from mine. And then was dating another girl a week later. (No. Really. I’m not kidding. I got it from a reliable source. His roommate at the time. He was/is a good guy. The roommate, that is.)
Anyway.
I got an email from him.
To my work email.
He and I have not really spoken since 2001. He emailed me once before at my work email. Again, I say – he and I have not really spoken since 2001.
Have you asked yourself the question yet? “How did he have my work email?” (There you go. You knew you wanted to ask.)
Answer: He googled me, found me on my school website, and found my work email there. Because Goddess knows *I* didn’t give it to him.
What did this email say? “Just thought I’d say hello.”
Okay, seriously. Buddy.
You broke off that relationship. You picked up a new one and your life went on. It is now 8 years later.
What the hell are you expecting out of me?
Now, my boys were cracking me up yesterday.
For those of you not in the know, I have three people I email during the work day on a regular basis. It’s a daily email that all four of us reply to.
I play World of Warcraft with all three of them. Two of them are male They are the boys. My boys. Whatever. (;
In any event, I shared with them that I’d gotten this email…
Mag: Nice, tell him he’s a douchebag
Roundeye: Really? What? …is he looking for his favorite sweater after all these years?
Keep in mind, I’ve never talked about the ex with either of them. They really knew nothing about him at all. Mag had no idea the ex actually behaved like an asshat. And Roundeye had no idea that I kept the ex’s favorite sweater when we broke up. (No, really. I did.) I think I laughed for a good five minutes straight. I’m laughing now. Apparently, they know all. They are connected to my brain. Or they are just psychic. Who knows. But it’s pretty funny, eh? 😀
Anyway. Wonder what the ex wants.
Odd.
He sounds like a complete arse to be honest. Rather ironically in 2001 my boyfriend broke up with via ICQ. He got in touch with me a few months later, after he had been touring France, and simply expected to take up where he left off! Gave me some story, cant remember what it was, but remember it was pathetic.
I would say he is definitely after something.
I would imagine he is after something, but – what? I cannot imagine he’d expect to really get anything at this point. Even friendship. One – he lives 1000 miles away. Two – our break-up was not – amicable. And while I’m not hurting over it any more, I’m not sure I’ve forgiven him either.
Is he looking to ease his concious perhaps?
Don´t be so sure on the getting back together point. My ex keeps contacting me (not the one mentioned above). Our break up was far from amicable, he was abusve and violent during our relationship and caused me to lose, well, I think you know the rest. He still contacts me via msn and used to send sms messages until I changed my number.
Ease his conscious? 8 Years later? I guess. I have no idea, truth be told. I couldn’t really begin to guess what his true purpose is.
As for your ex – um. Yeah. He needs the hurt put on him….
Oops. I meant conscience. Just goes to show how tired I was yesterday!
You want to know the sad part? I didn’t even notice until you wrote that you meant conscience. Apparently, you and I were connected at the brain and it didn’t even occur to me that you’d used the wrong word.
