When it comes to break-ups, I tend to cut and run. I typically want nothing to do with my ex, except that we still usually share one important thing: mutual friends. So, what do you do when your mutual friends invite both of you to a party, dinner or other social event? Do you politely decline, feigning illness, or do you brave it out and hope that he doesn’t show up with his latest showpiece of a girlfriend?
For me, it depends on how recent the break-up was, whether I still have strong feelings for my ex, and how he might react to seeing me. Break-ups are never easy, and interacting with someone I haven’t quite gotten over is a lose-lose situation.
What are your thoughts on exes? Have you remained friends, or do you go out of your way to avoid any kind of interaction? I’d love to hear from you!
