Lol. You're funny. Get a therapist before you're arrested for stalking.

All I needed to see was just the question about if Facebook could help.

I mean not to offend, but really? I personally despise Facebook as a communication medium, and to foster a relationship through Facebook with someone you've already had a relationship sounds more forced than the original relationship itself.

Without stalking or being too forward, the only way to retest the waters is either by phone (hearing your voice) or meeting up. That's my opinion on the cyber world of relationships. And yes, I have been tainted by it, and before the taint I didn't like it anyways, and now have hatred towards it.

I'm sorry, but you're just offended that somebody you weren't even that into had the gall to be the one who broke up with lawyer/ski god/whatever YOU, and now you want some indication that she regrets passing you by. I think you should get over it.

Extreme narcissism is truly an ugly trait.

Extremely harsh, but extremely true.

I believe when it comes to a relationship which you desire to deepen, status or stature or success (or whatever you want to call it) all pale in comparison to the "connection". Family, friends, co-workers - great people to subtly or not pound your chest at your accomplishments whether it be your job or a great new TV you got or a new car or a cruise you took....I admit I've subtly done that many times before. Show-off if you will.

But as a relationship matures, you will realize that there is something else, something your five senses can't get a grasp on, yet you know it exists. If you are resorting to Facebook to rekindle something, then the connection isn't there, whether you feel it or not. That connection must be mutual and fluid, not one way.

I think she gave you a nice excuse for not being into you. You are trying to force it, again.

Just be you and stop trying to act from sound of it. Just be yourself if you want someone to fall for the you and keep looking. I think forced likely means fake or acting out.
