The Inevitables

An 'Inevitable' is one ex in your life that no matter what, you always seem to find yourself being drawn back to.

It's an inevitable fact. You can be apart for years at a time, date other people, move away...and yet, without fail...you end up finding each other again. It's almost like we have these super powerful magnets implanted somewhere that keep pulling us together instead of pushing us apart. You can only run so far in the other direction before you run out of strength and the magnetic pull whizzes you backwards to it's other half.

The downside is that in the end, no matter how many times you find each other... you always end up wandering alone again.

Linny, not ALL end up alone - I'm happily and mushily back together with my first ever. There's hope yet :-)

I guess I really shouldn't have said 'alone'...that's just how 'I' feel sometimes.

I guess it would be more appropriate to say that more often than not...you both wind up wandering off again...fighting against the pull.

I used to refer to those people as the inevitables. Inevitably you always end up with them. I don't think they're good for you though. Like a drug addiction, you only have euphoric recall. You magically only remember the good times and forget the bad stuff. Linny, have you ever seen Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind? It's about a couple like that. It's a very interesting movie.

Since I'm borrowing Denial you can have Inevitables. It seems like a fair trade. First one to fame wins!

How true this is! I am personally ready to demagnetize myself from mine.

I hear you. It always ends up the same way too. I think it is more of a comfort and convenience thing in my case.

I thankfully have not yet run into any of my exes ever, nor would i want to reconnect with any of them.

There are however others, that i've dated here and there, that i would not mind bumping into :)

Interesting - has never happened to me, so cannot relate. I'm thinking thoughts, I don't think you want to hear like maybe there is a reason... :-D

Oooo...got me one of those too. 13yrs of back and fourth banter about "what if". Nothing of it now, of course, being that I'm married and all.
Here's a funny thing for you...the more years go by, the more I realize life wouldn't necessarily have been so great with him. In fact, life is pretty good without him.
I think it's fine as long as both can say up front that it isn't serious or forever. Just as there are reasons we bounce back (feeling of comfort) there are reasons we bounce away (reality).

It's all good fun if no one is stringing anyone along.
Good luck hon.
