Well, I could have put:
No, I find that they then believe I am interested in rekindling a dead romance. The whole thing is then bothersome.

But, I thought it was too long winded.

LOL....no, your fine.
So, if you just reached out, to say hey, how are you? What have you been doing the last,etc? years? Do you think he would just get the wrong idea?

Yes, I do. I won't say all men but the men that I have been involved with somehow think that after the breakup there is still this chance to get back together. This can last up to 6 months or longer. There are the initial late night phone calls, the late night drunk phone calls, the letters, the flowers, the tears and the if I can't have you no one can crap. As an aside, whomever came up with the wait a couple of weeks and call them up to see if they still feel the same way crap....should be beaten about the eyes and head.

While I have not gone out of my way to contact any, I have met them in public and I have found that by being nice seems to send the wrong message. Its like having to break up all over again.

haha, wow that's funny.

I've kept in touch with girls I've dated because I dumped them all. I've never been dumped before. So to me, there wasn't any hard feelings. None of them thought somehow we'd get back together, they know I'm not the kind of guy who goes for seconds.

Haha, why is that? I'm very particular, thus I'm the one doing the dumping so far. If I got dumped in the future, which is bound to happen, I'm sure I would see it coming because I'd probably be that close to doing it myself. It'd probably be much easier if she said something first, but I'm always in the awkward position of having to end things. It makes me feel bad but what can you do, better than stringing her along.

Have you ever wanted to contact an old love?

YES, she still got some of my best CD's and owes me $50.

Yes, b/c we shared so many dreams and I want to say, "Hey, I did it! Let me show you all the stuff that we talked about that I did. What did you do? Are you happy?"

I don't think you can ever really stop being concerned about their welfare.

No. Haven't loved that many, and no reason to go backwards.
