"The Ex Factor."

In Mathematics, you'll see "X" represents the unknown. But, what's truly unknown is that what plus what equals a friendship with an ex-boyfriend ... Have I discovered the unsolvable? Or, is it possible to transform a once-passionate love into something which fits super easily and nice onto the friendship shelf? Could a gal be friends with her ex? Recently, I've found my past maneuvering into the present, which calls for a post!

Patrick ... Remember him, Searchers? The (crazy) ex-boyfriend who's still head-over-heels in love with me, regardless of everything. Well, per a "non-platonic basis", Patrick has requested I see a movie with him some point tomorrow. I wish the whole "Ex Factor" wasn't a major issue and I could casually agree without having these skeptical thoughts. But I simply don't know ... I mean, is this wise?

I question his intentions ... Should I open this door again if I do get a chance?

Patrick's truly manipulating the Friendzone ... However, what am I waiting for? Prince Charming on a horse? Risks are life ... It's how a gal evolves, grows and learns valuable lessons. But, what would I actually learn? Learn I had made a truly terrible mistake while having all my old problems seem more real than ever now? Or, would I learn second chances are vital for having a successful relationship? Would I completely exceed the boundaries of propriety monopolizing such a chance? I know risks are key, but could I be in over my head? Shit. Oh, the questions.

While I think, maybe a Cosmopolitan plus a Scotch equals a friendship with an ex. However, I'm not ready for the validation to lie in that particular genre. I'll get Savannah to come, I could use a wingwoman right about now, or a variable. Advice/Opinions/Thoughts, Searchers? I'm going in. Unarmed, and fully unloaded.

  1. Evaluate everything and the outcomes...
    ...What're your feelings for him at this point? When that big love comes around it's not always easy. Get to thinking...
    ...If you're meant to go, you'll find your way there, and who knows what else.

    1. Patrick is childish, and apparently unprepared for Annabella's needs and wants for a commitment/relationship...
      ...I don't want her coming out hurt after playing a game that she can't win, (Patrick).

    2. I understand you, Francine...
      ...But men change. Should Annie write him off and fly him out to the Island Of Lost Men forever without (re)consideration? You never know...

    3. Absolutely, write him off ... There are endless men Georgina; Patrick was a tester and he completely flunked. It's beyond risky, and I don't like it. Call it harsh or irrational, I say smart...
      ...Keep a distance and avoid that bullshit all costs. The Search is endless too, why not experiment and possibly change the cycle for women?

    4. ...I take it you're single, Francine? Maybe you never consented a second chance for a man, but that doesn't automatically imply that Annabella shouldn't.

      We'll agree to disagree here.

    5. Yes, I am, but I don't see the relevance.

    6. LOL! Stop. Point proven!

  2. You're both right ... I think everyone should hush and leave this up to her fate.
