Spoken like a true autist. It's always good and healthy to have solid bonds with a female or female friends. I have some solid female friends that I know I can rely on them some of them I've banged in the past some don't but I don't have any intentions in getting sexual with them. However there are times when you get different advice or emotional support from women that you just can't get from male friends.

Maybe it's just me but I can open up to females and not to men when talking about emotional issues

Idk I'd rather be friends with an ex that I still click with and didn't have a chitty breakup with rather than any other girl. In those cases, it's really like, aren't we just waiting to bang?

When i break up its scorched earth crew. Unless its some short term fling I am not invested in. If it is a real relationship they are dead to me the moment we say our goodbyes.

I'm not sure how I'd feel about my gf sending memes to her ex. If you're sending memes you're trying to entertain or impress someone why would I want my gf doing either to her ex?

Pathetic.
I doubt it, she's married to someone who gets along with her and accepts her manic urges way better than i ever did. Either way, i don't really dwell on what i am to her. I have no desire to be with her ever again, and am 100% okay with just the random jokes once a month.

Beta af

You are literally advocating being a beta orbiter. If you're not meeting with a chick to take her to pound town then there is no reason to talk to them.

Women are just holes and literally nothing more

I still fuk the absolute chit out of one of my ex's, but then we don't communicate at all for 1-3 months and then we start fuking again. Never goes passed that. Sometimes she'll send me old pics of us when we are talking/fuking, but then I'll go NC and we wont talk again for months. It's absolutely perfect.

Have another ex that will completely cuck whatever guy she's with at the time and will run up and give me a long uncomfortable hug whenever we run into each other. She'll do it right in front of the guy lmao.

LOL that's narcissistic af.

You don't go from passionately loving and banging each other to 'being friends'.

How's that?

Surely what's narcissistic is immediately blocking, never talking chit out and pretending it never happened

Only reasons I contact exes again:

1) I want to go back to the well and want an easy lay.

Oh wait, there's only one reason.

What's there to talk out?

You break up with somebody because you two are not compatible, most often because you're not compatible with anybody.

There is nothing to 'talk out' when it comes to issues with interpersonal-relationships, because when there is a need to do so, there is usually a lot of emotional manipulation going on between both parties, and the 'talking out' of these issues is another vain attempt to manipulate each other's emotions and hide from the problem that each party has.

I'm not talking about being with somebody and then separating, taking time to sort your own sh*t out.

I'm talking about the typical situation where AS SOON as you break up, you go on a banging spree because that's what you wanted to do the whole time, but were suppressing it.

Disagree. It’s too hard to move on otherwise you didn’t really like her.

But most exes are toxic af and a lot of times, there's always some lingering feelings or resentment. Rarely is a break up ever clean.

If 2 people split because of equal reasons like distance/focussing on career etc, and you meet 10 years later, sure why not.
It’s very rare where you have an amicable breakup where both people are ok with it (genuinely, not convincing themselves they are). Usually one person, likely the one who was broken up with, will have lingering feelings. They may convince themselves they are ok to keep the ex in their life, but to your point that means they are a ok with them getting pounded right in front of them



Again, rare. If you’re such good friends you need to see them after a breakup then why didn’t the relationship work out? What are you getting out of the friendship? Do you think any future gf will be weirded out by you seeing an ex?


Srs every guy I know who is still friends is an absolute cuck emotionally wrecking themselves

Also firm believer that men and women can’t just be friends.


Either your definition of “friend” is wrong

You are gay

Or you are beta billy friendzoner

Those are acquaintances and that’s where most people get confused on this. It’s good to have girls in your social circle that you aren’t pursuing and are “friends”


But A true friend is you and that person can go on a road trip or check out a new city together. You can go get dinner or drinks just the two of you. Help each other moving. Spend a day together fishing, hiking, whatever. Hang out at each other’s homes to watch a movie, sport, catch up, etc.

Guys and girls don’t do the above as friends. One party, usually the guy, will want “more” - either a relationship or sexually. If you disagree then congrats you likely have the emotional intelligence of a child and can’t even confront your own feelings. that or you likely are a gayboi srs. Almost every guy in this category is just biding time to make a move. The woman usually knows this but doesn’t care and enjoys the free attention with plausible deniability

It can only cause harm to future relationsships as well, so there’s literally 0 point.
