Couple.... of friends.

Agreed.

Unlikely though.

Bit awkward with her working for my brother.

Would it be out of order to ask her to perhaps look for another job? It's only part time work around uni and I'm sure she'd get work elsewhere easy enough.

 

maybe a bit tricky that one - well, without offending her....

how's she coping with all this..?

 

OK, because of how you feel ("back to square one" after dropping stuff off) seeing her is not a good idea. Asking her to quit her job is probably worse! The inevitable "can't bear to see you around, Babes, when we're not together..." would be bad for both of you. If you can try "not to be around" when she is it will help. Given how your posts suggest you still feel about her I'd stay out of the way, go out try to have a good time etc - unless you can see yourselves getting back together you got to move on. It's shit, I've been there but time does heal most wounds.

 

You're young .. come here in Italy on summer vacation and you 'll find many probably better too...
Follow my suggestion...

 

jesus!

 

Nice to see individuality is alive and well in Italy

 

I took that pic walking (unfortunately with my wife ) .. them are similar dressed because probably clerks in some store around .. just working break .. usual here ...

Btw I was able to trow a whistle to them ...

 

My ex was cuter than all of them

I'm about to go on a "date"!!!

Friend of a friend. Known her a while. Not really sure how this has come about. A bit of flirting and now this. Not really sure I'm up for it, but see how it goes....

Shitting myself! lol!

 

Mammamia!

You know they don't work in a stereo store.

I feel better knowing that they exist.

 

By crikey Arlequen, thats not Primark in Bolton then...

way up on your basic English model.

(...did your wife promptly push you through the hedge?!!!)

 

Spooky!
They're like the kids from 'Village of the Damned' grown up.

 

Also been there MO. I don't think you can really keep her as a friend. I was going out with a girl I really liked, but her behavior was becoming a bit unpredictable so I ended it, I suppose to protect myself (she was beautiful but broken). I tried not to see her again, but about 3 months later she and my best friend started going out! So I was kind of forced to see her now and again (and hear about her all the time!). The few times I did see her was really awkward as we both knew what 'had been'. Even if I were to see her now years later it would be odd.

If you do try and stick around as a friend you will only slip up and say something or act in a way that isn't appropriate, it will mess you up in the head and you will fall out as friends anyway.

You will feel better about it in time, but I don't think you will ever really heal from it if you love her. You will simply learn to live with it. It really suks, but thats life and it build character!

 

Correct

 

Top darts, sir.

 

if you love something let it go...
if it doesn't come back, hunt it down and kill it. (only joking)


Seriously...

• three glasses of wine at hers and you'll only get all maudlin. done it.

exit stage left. IMHO.
