<< 2005-05-22 - 5:06 p.m. >> Really, how do boys work? Work as in function. It seems that most tread softly when they're trying to feel someone out, and once they think they've got it and start accepting that this situation might actually be ok or "safe" something goes wrong. Is it because they think that you being more yourself and more comfortable around them means that you've got white doves and fucking wedding bells in your head? Or is it just that seeing more of your personality and little quirks makes them see that they really just don't like you? And what about ex-boyfriends? It seems that if you try to keep these people in your life, then the only thing that comes of it is fuck buddies. (God, what a horrible term.) So, it occurred to me, through practice, practice, and more practice, that the only way to be friends with an ex, is after a certain period of time. The period of time needed is tricky, though, because it depends on how long you were together, how good of friends you were before you became a couple, and how long you were friends. It goes like this: Longer you two were a couple, the longer the time off period. The better of friends the two of you were, then the shorter the period of time. **Caution** If the two of you weren't actually that good of friends and either of you were only talking to the other one JUST to date, then that doesn't count. Then you have to add that to the time you were a couple. If the two of you have known eachother since childhood and it WAS an actual friendship (see above) then the shorter amount of time for you to be away from eachother. The trick is, now you have to factor them all together. So, you could have been ok friends for 8 years, but if you've been dating for about 10, then I'm sorry, but you're going to have to wait at least 18 months before you can have the first initial awkward interaction.
