Another Little Piece of My Heart...

Nothing can be harder, or more interesting, than the presence of ex- love interests in your life. You see or spend time with them and the old feelings creep up and surprise you. Whoa, where did THAT come from?!

Once you drop an L-Bomb and give someone a piece of your heart, you never really take it back. You might put on a front like you don't care, but you do... (That's OK!)

It almost doesn't matter that they shattered your heart into a million pieces by lying and cheating - or lead you on for months by hooking up with you while "not wanting to commit" and dating every person in their path - or refuse to make eye contact with you when they see you and act like you don't exist - You STILL have that secret relationship. You still shared something together, and it's not easily forgotten....

(We'll always have Paris...)

Even more fun is when they ask you to hang out and you spend a little bit of time with them....Is there still something here? Are we more than friends? Should we try again? It can all get pretty confusing from here, and for the most part, your ex(s) are your ex(s) for a REASON - but there are ALWAYS exceptions to the rule! So you never know...

All you can do from here is see what happens - do your best to protect yourself from future heart ache - and make a worthy effort to control yourself and your emotions.

You've got the power!
