My cousin dated a guy whose apartment walls were covered with his own numerous paintings and photos of his extended family. She was creeped out by the photos of his ex-wife (who was NOT the mother of his kids). When they were kind of stalled about moving to the next level and she asked about the ex, he replied that they were just friends and why would she care? She pointed out that he did numerous things whenever the ex called for 'help' like fixing her car, helping her move, and other 'boyfriend' things plus there were no less than 17 photos of the ex on his walls so it sure didn't look like it was over. He just about choked. Since he normally went out instead of entertaining in his home, he never realized just how many photos there were because he hadn't 're-decorated' in years. He realized that this ex was a 'space invader' and was killing off his new relationship so he cut the ties on his own. The next time my cousin went to his apartment, ALL of the ex photos were gone from the walls. They've been married now for around 10 years. Too true.

For seven years now of living here in Canada I still experience hardship in pronounciation of some words. What I meant to say is the accent. It takes time for me/us to express what I/we want to say because I/we need to translate my/our ideas from our own language to English. The funny thing is that usage of some terminologies . Somebody corrected me for using the word "naughty". Here, this word applies only to women or for a kid. They usually used the word " asshole" for a guy instead. Even the word "anyway" , here they pronounce and spell it with an "s" at the end of the word. Anyways, this is not really a big problem for me because I live in a multi-cultural environment. This is just matter of observation. A lot of immigrants experience the same things. I am from Southeast asian country and English (American) is our second language.

He was telling me they were friends and he was suspucious but he never said he would stop. So who was playing games with who? So I went for the lets all be friends. Considering the situation I couldn't see asking him to stop talking to her. I wouldn't have went I just wanted him to think about it and realize on his own that wouldn't have been a great idea for lots of reasons. For one he wouldn't have wanted us discussing him and I might find out a few things he hadn't told me. I've been on both sides. I've asked bf's of the past to discontinue an relationship and that didn't work either. Guess it depends on how feeling are for the one being pursued . Yeah I realize that.

You never know. If he was suspicious of her motives, he probably knew better anyway. Why else would she be calling on a Saturday night? Personally, I find it a little creepy that an ex wants to be friends. We can be civil to the ex without continuing to be in their business and dating life or them in ours. I don't need mine rating my current anything since they don't (and shouldn't) know who I am now after parting (or surviving) them, y'know? Get along, little doggie, I'm off to new pastures and I'm not looking back wistfully at yours. Hope you're doing well - with somebody else. And no, it's not Kphd, it's K - oh, how many times did I get "space-invaded" before I finally started to learn how to deal with it. If I were the space-invading type and knew where my clueless exes were, I'd send them David's comments and give them the clue.

He told me that he talked to her about it and he said he just thought she still wanted to be friends but he was suspecious about it. I told him if she wanted to be friends maybe we could all three go out for lunch together sometime. He didn't say anything about that. She hasn't called since and if he would have taken me up on my offer I would have consider it disrespectful to put me in that position. Also I don't think he would ever want to to try and be friends with her because I might find out something.. But hey it doesn't matter now because I have seen bf of 6 months in a week and a half and he doesn't have time to see me this weekend. So there. Next, next next.

A lot of people there we will never meet in person. what the difference that someone has 50 friends there or none friend there? Do people compete on that? do you really have nothing to do in life? amazing! few days ago, I was curious and went to a chatting room and I can't believe what people were chatting on. None sense. I would think those people miss part of their brain. well I am on facebook too. It helps me to find a friend from 10 years ago. Yes, I went out with him before, but now, we just exchanged couple emails and it is good to know that he is doing fine. why do people use this good tool to play mental games? it is also very silly to try to be popular on cyberspace!
