An ex is an ex. And unless you have a child with an ex, or literally owe them money, then you don't owe them anything.
She's an EX girlfriend, so why would you give a shit?
People's responses to this situation are certainly interesting. As to the above two statements, WOW. ". . . you don't owe them anything?" What about owing them your word . . . this is what I think is rather funny about some of the people that seem to be on this side of the fence; especially given the age of some of the commentators. Whatever happened to your word being your bond?
Which doesn't mean you can't change your mind or if an "emergency" comes up . . . "my brother was just put in the hospital", etc. so there are circumstances in which one can back out of.
My friend and I will sometimes make movie plans and then she is tired or I am, no big deal so it does depend on the situation but I do think if someone says yes to something major, then yes, they should keep their word.
The suggestion that others have given about finding her someone to take your place was good.
Why did you think it was necessary to tear her down though (she'll talk your ear off or something along those lines as well as her being into herself)? None of us is perfect and each of us have our strengths and weaknesses. You just left an opportunity for total strangers to rag on her (which is another oddity of human behavior; the ability of total strangers to tear down another total stranger down). | |

Posted: 9/12/2008 7:19:04 PM | Indehills, I DID read...and read all the little excuses people were using to get out of doing something.
I don't recall mentioning I was talking about OP when I made my statement.
And, perhaps YOU could have read the title of this forum: "I need an excuse to get out of...."
You must have done a lot of wiggling in your time. | |

Posted: 9/12/2008 7:28:13 PM | Gee, indehills, I didn't know there was a rule about reading ALL the posts before posting to the OP's original thread.
Why don't you take a chill pill and let others speak their peace in peace? | |

Posted: 9/12/2008 7:34:47 PM | It's so too bad about the Patriots losing Brady.
I can't think of anything that could have made the season worse this year...with the possible exception of Favre staying retired and NOT playing football.
Now that would have brought the world to an end!
Bet now you're wishing you were going to the wedding and doing the chicken dance don't you? | |

Posted: 9/13/2008 12:51:12 AM | I'm quite upset with the lost of Brady for the season, but I still wouldn't want to miss the game.
And please excuse MGM....He's my little forum stalker. He's not all there in the head. If you check his history he goes where ever I go.... | |

If you truly want to double back, simply tell the truth and request you be released or keep your word and go. Always make your energy positive. Those little pesky negitives add up. | |

Posted: 9/13/2008 5:03:58 AM | If the wedding was in a hotel, then chances are they have a bar and half the guys there will be watching the game anyway. It happens all the time.
But always tell the truth, you may look like a big ***hole when you do but at least you are an ***hole with integrity. | |

Posted: 9/13/2008 5:29:48 AM | Guy, don't be that low. You said you would do it, so cowboy up and go. DVRs are a wonderful thing - and as posted above - if there is a reception - you can catch parts of the game anyway.
Matters not - as some are going around - WHY you said yes to your ex. That is your routine, and you can evaluate your relationship with her in the future. For now - You agreed.
Oh - and personal quirk here - I ever get the "hospital' excuse from a woman? She will never hear from me again (which was likely her wish anyway) and will not speak with her further. Sure, I would imagine somewhere along the line there was a real hospital involved, but seriously - that is completely utterly lame. I agree with poster above - that sort of 'negative' lies build up. | |

Posted: 9/13/2008 9:00:21 AM | | I think that its really immature of you to be thinking of an excuse at all. It shows that you're a selfish person. You said that you were be there for them and now your backing out because of a hockey game, can't you see why your the ex now. I also think that its pathetic that you decided to come and ask a bunch of strangers on a dating site about what excuse to use. You sound like a 15 year old teenager, stop being a baby and just tell her the truth. Oh and I'm sure with you bringing this up on this site it should score alot of points for you with the ladies lol. We all know how much women loves a guy that lies(sarcasm). | |

Posted: 9/15/2008 2:18:00 AM | I realize that I'm late to this, but the first question is, 'If she is your ex, why did you jump at the chance to attend a wedding with her?"
Let's face it, you told her that you'd go, and weddings are quite a big deal. I don't know if you went or not, but you should have maned up and gone to the wedding. | |

Posted: 9/15/2008 3:11:09 AM | I wish I would have read this prior to the 14th... because my answer would have been -- FORGET THE DARN PATRIOTS... go to the wedding and become a Green Fan. After all... our game is on tonight... MASSACRE OF THE COWBOYS IN THEIR OWN TOILET BOWL... Go Eagles..

Posted: 2/17/2009 7:30:49 PM | | LOL Yeah why don't you tape the game and go to the wedding, get trashed, possibly shag the ex and then go home and watch the game! You win all around. If you don't still like your ex you wouldn't of agreed to go in the first place. If that's the case move on but I wish all I had to worry about was whether or not to go to a wedding...get over it. | |
