Middle-aged musings on ex-girlfriends
|
|
Do you keep in touch with any former girlfriends?
There's one who got back in touch a couple of years ago (after a gap of 25 years) and we're really good friends now, and no suggestion of anything extra. She never married and is now a professor at some left-wing university. She seems to have aged well.
Another one I heard had got through at least two marriages. She was the type who could never really be happy, whatever hand life dealt her. She used to have a very good figure and always said that she never wanted to end up like her mum, a rotund Tory councillor with more than a passing resemblance to Hyacinth Bucket. Which presumably means that that's exactly what she has become. Her brother made a fortune in something to do with IT, so she'll never be short of a penny. But I don't know if even that can make her happy. Don't want to be back in touch with her.
Another one went on to get married, which surprised me because she always used to be very anti the idea of marriage. Maybe she got pregnant? I wonder if her husband knows that she's bi? Or maybe that's why he married her? Not really in touch with her, apart from on Facebook and even then don't really communicate. I look back fondly on a very passionate few months, but sadly she doesn't seem to have aged well.
All part of life's rich tapestry.

No but I did once take a girl on a date to a nature reserve.

I only ever see one of my exes - funnily enough my first real girlfriend.
A couple of years after we broke up her Mum married my uncle. So now we're related and see each other at family gatherings. My wife really likes her but told me that she has totally blocked out the fact we used to be at it hammer and tongs in order to be able to.
She's still very fit by the way, but even if we were both to break up with our partners I just wouldn't. It'd be all too Norfolk and banjos.
The best bit is that her husband is a fat, obnoxious Tottenham fan. Every time he sees me I know he's thinking that I'm the bloke who popped his wife's cherry when she was seventeen...

I see my kids' dad more often now than when we were together (only a slight exaggeration). Plus I keep in touch with one other ex boyfriend who lives abroad.
Suits me. Not interested in staying in contact with the others. I think you know when you genuinely have the potential to be lasting friends after you have been a couple.

My ex from about 20 years ago got in of touch on FB recently. She was stunning and an absolutely incredibly figure. She'd had two kids and got divorced after her husband cheated on her (I've seen photos on FB of him, she was way out of his league and she hasn't aged at all so God knows who he was cheating with, must have been a Hollywood star if he was trading up).
We sent a few "this is what's happened in the last 20 years" type FB messages then I thought WTF am I doing? So I sent her a GOOD LUCK message and blocked her on FB. There be danger down that road for a married man.
Another ex phoned my parents number after about a decade of me moving out and talked to my dad to ask for my number. He said to her "he's married now" but still gave her my mobile. She was married but wanted to "meet up" at her place. She had always been very good in bed but a total mentalist. I declined. After declining twice she never called again.

Just had a text from an ex saying her cats been run over and killed and she doesn't know what to do. I had to fight the urge to reply 'bury it'

Don't keep in touch with mine. Pretty much cut ties when I got a new one, not to be cruel or because I don't like them, just because I could never be dealing with the inevitable jealousy any new partner displays towards exes.
Been married for 5 years and haven't had any ex contact for 10.

Do I take it that Mrs Coffee is away at the moment? Or perhaps you're away from Kolkata?
Hence you're able to risk starting such a thread without Mrs Coffee walking in on you...

I shagged two or three exes this year. It often happens if I see them whilst out. Usually, they are bored with their marriages and so I give them a bit of a thrill to help get them through the drab misery that is their wretched existence after being dropped by the MANIAC.

I'm friends with quite a lot,only because of Facebook.I've only taken a few relationships seriously anyway(Holidays and living together).The rest have just been glorified long term shags.
It's funny that the ones that I had serious relationships with are the ones who are now married with kids.The rest still seem to be doing the same shit now as they were then.In fact sometimes I have to think hard whether we had liaisons, as most were good friends before the 'relationship'.

"She never married and is now a professor at some left-wing university"
Is that the one that Matty Jarvis didn't go to?
