The EX Files …would you go there again?
They say that opportunity knocks once right? WRONG !!! Lately some strange shit has been happening. I posted about a week ago about maybe finding myself a friend with benefits and is if by magic and ex boyfriend of mine contacted me yesterday out of the blue ( he does not know about this blog), not only was his text unexpected but the phone calls and subsequent conversation that took place were totally RANDOM for want of a better word. He texted something along the lines of “hey sweetie, been a while guess your wedding plans are well underway – just a quick message to say hi, take care” I was stunned obviously he is totally behind on the latest news..so I rang him and broke it down (I got married- hubby absconds-moves in with ho-who used to be best mate of jilted wife- hubby spiteful and depraved- ho nasty skank- feel better off without both of them in my life-may the fleas of 10000000 camels infest themselves in their pubic hair) LMA
O!!!!
That was the general gist. Everything was going swimmingly, he seemed genuinely horrified and gasped and tutted in all the right places and I did my best to keep the venom out of my voice and stay cool, calm and collected…..UNTIL he hit me with some shit that I was NOT expecting
Him: “ well he sounds like a fool – if he did not value you, you are better off without him” *hell yeah!!! But I was not about to agree*
Me : “mmmmmmmmmm” *trying to sound pensive*
Him: “If he did not value you as a wife he will regret it, I know that I would love to marry you if I had the chance”
Me: “WHAT?? Yeah right!”
Him: “ No I am serious breaking up with you is the one thing I regret most in my life” *I dumped him then changed my mind but by then he was so pissed of he said he needed a break- but lets not nitpick*
Me: “Wow – what are you trying to say?”
Him: “I miss you”
Me: (Nervous laughter )
Him “I am serious..”
Me More nervous laughter
Him: “stop laughing I am trying to talk to you to tell you how I feel, I always think about you , which is why I try keep in touch” *he does text and call every so often- I, however have a no call policy when it comes to exes*
Me: ……. “silence”….. *inside I am like SHIT this brother is serious!!*
Him: “ I would love to try again”
Me : …sigh…. *my whole friends with benefits thing comes to mind and I start toying with the possibility in my head*
Him: “say something if you don’t want to hear this tell me to stop and we will change the subject”
Me: ….more silence…………
Him: “ I don’t know what was wrong with me when we split up- I was going through some stuff and I wish that we could turn back time, you were the best thing in my life”
Me: ..tee hee (giggle) ….
Him: “ Say something ..if you don’t want to hear it ..change the subject….look I am coming to
London soon”
Me: “Lets change the subject!” and we did
Later when I was thinking about it, I asked myself why I waited so long before telling him to change the subject. To be honest it was good to just hear him say that he regrets how things turned out. I loved him with all my heart and when we were together I threw him a HUGE 25th birthday party/BBQ ( I don’t know why but I have a thing about throwing parties for boyfriends) He was sweet but hot tempered and his pig headedness used to irk me!! We were both so opinionated and were very similar in that we are both quite extrovert. I don’t know about fanning the dead embers of old love… there are several pro’s and cons that I have listed below:
Pros:
You know what you are going to get , personality wise and in the sack (if my memory serves me correctly I never had any complaints)
I think it will be quite easy to fall back into that familiar level of comfort – which will mean less inhibitions and also we wont need to go through that awkward god-i-don’t-want-him-to-see-me-naked phase
He lives out of town and so I don’t have to have him lingering around me
Because he lives out of town I will see him sporadically and so our rendezvous would be something to look forward to
He regrets what happened which means if I did go back there I would have the upper hand-
He seems to be thinking about things..remorse is good!
Cons :
Regurgitated boyfriends???
I broke up with him for a reason
He current domestic situation is a mess – he has a kid with some woman and I don’t want the drama
He lives so far away
Hot temper
I am bored and have itches that need scratching and it seems the perfect opportunity has presented itself. I am not looking for a “husband” lord knows I have already had one of those and he was useless! I am looking for some action! My only fear is that he has clingy potential.
On another note …I have a date with the French dude from last weekend who I shall now call Captain planet due to his whole environmental save the planet ways– we are going out on Sunday. He has been calling and texting his little booty off and he is insisting on cooking me dinner- with my luck he is probably going to turn out to be one of those “feeders” that you see on TV who try ply you with pies until you get so fat that you cant walk!
Have a good weekend where ever you are.
