GooniesKid 0 #1 October 30, 2013 Hi everyone. So believe it or not I had a girlfriend once...yes, i know it's hard to believe. I know what you're all thinking, "how can this jerk, troll, bastard, a-hole get a girlfriend...did he pay her or something?". I get it. So with today's technology it's very easy to connect with people. I started using Facebook back in 2007. I got a request from my Ex-girlfriend. I never responded and just declined. Then just two weeks ago i got another request from her. I mean, why would she try to reconnect with me? Obviously we broke up and the point is I never looked back, never had any regrets...well, my only regret is she took my virginity. but I never looked back. From a lady's perspective why would she try to reconnect with me? From a guy's perspective do you think I should reconnect in the hopes of "getting some"? Thanks my skydiving friends!

quade 3 #7 October 30, 2013 The reasons could be innumerable; everything from innocent to nefarious. It might just be to say hi. It might be to finally extract her revenge. Might be child support even if you're not the father. Might be to ask your forgiveness because she "done you wrong" and is currently going through a 12-step program. There's only one way to find out.

Have cautious optimism. Cautious,,,very much so. Optimistic,,not so much. That 12-step program isn't far from the truth. I once accepted a college friend, on facebook, a couple years ago. We had some small conversations and finally she told me, "i'm sorry for corrupting you, you were such a nice guy,,,but we (everyone at the dorms) got you into smoking, drinking, partying, etc". I told her, "nothing to be sorry about, it was all my decision". Soon after i was defriended. I guess she wanted to be sure she was clear of conscious and/or guilt.

LuckyMcSwervy 0 #12 October 30, 2013 flygirl1220 Exactly! And then don't you hate it when they try to start something up again after like 30 years??!! That's cause we look goodddddddddddd!! Always be kinder than you feel. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GooniesKid 0 #13 October 30, 2013 I figured part of the reason would be to see how life turned out for me without her. I guess that's fine but what matters is that i'm much happier without her! Sure i work in the entertainment industry (because i signed a non-disclosure agreement i cannot disclose what i do and/or where i work) and the work has it's cycles but i get to do things and have opportunities i wouldn't of had if i was still with her. what really sucks is that she's still friends with my sister . But again i think she is friends with my sister only to see if there's any pictures of me on her facebook page (which there aren't). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My asshole brother and my asshole exHusband are best friends. Even after all of the misery and pain the xH put me though. YAY for family. Always be kinder than you feel.
