My Girl's ex is... a total pussy.
So, they still talk and whatnot (living in the same apartment complex and sharing friends just doesn't do a lot to make that impossible) and the guy seemed well on his way to picking up the shattered pieces of his geeky little life except... bam...
They run into each other and the usual "How are you doing?" style questions ensue... he manages to respond with "Not good. I'm not really happy, haven't been happy in a year... a year, this Saturday."
"What happened a year ago on Saturday?"
"We broke up."
Jesus H. Christ.
I can't recall the dates of any breakup I've ever had--this guy has it down to the day. He sorta brings about stuff like "I had a dream where you were saying you're leaving and every word caused a cut and when I woke up I could feel them all, each and every one!"
It amazes me that there are people with this level of social skill out there. I wanna shake him and tell him "Hey, buddy, not everything in your life needs to be melodramatic and indicative that you're living in some Joss Whedan dreamscapel!"
*sigh*
Wussy, wierdo guys give guys a bad name.
