On the Side

thought you should know...

  • Now, I'm no neat freak but I do feel strongly about proper hygiene. So this morning while having a lively banter with my coworkers it was brought up that one of them spotted Cynthia Nixon (Miranda from Sex and the City) at Tequila Sunrise (corner of Steinway and Northern Blvd. Read on...
  • My darlings, I have to apologize for the silence here yesterday. We were too busy having tickle fights and drinking banana daiquiris. And I think we fell into a non-leap year worm hole, bending the fabric of space an time. Not to worry, all is well at GS Central. Now, Read on...

Brandy Ex thoughts

The love of your life. The one you thought you could never live without. Until he broke up with you and sent you into a three month long depression from which you never fully bounced back. And even though you've been over for more than two years, the sound of his voice leaving a message on your machine still makes your heart leap. The thought of seeing him still makes you excited.

Then you get a call that changes everything. The call where he says, "Hi there, I used to love you but last weekend I got married to someone else."

This hasn't happened to me yet. But it happened to someone I'm close to. I can't lie and pretend that I don't dread my turn coming. Putting a big huge grin on my face, choking out the words, "Oh really? That's. . . .wonderful. I'm so. . . .happy for you." I'll pretend for a minute that I'm just now getting over hating him. For a moment I'll pretend that we're still friends and that his happiness means something to me.

It would be great if we could all come out of relationships with a smile and promises of good tidings, but unfortunately most of them end with harsh words and tendencies toward anorexia in the following weeks and months. And no matter how far I've come, I'm still not prepared to meet the news that he's met someone new. Even if I happen to be dating someone wonderful (which I am). He broke up with me. And Brandy's law says that this means he should never get to be happy.

  • On the flip side, is it wrong to secretly hope your ex is devastated by your recent marriage? That’s normal right?

  • Okay, this is just too apropo for the moment.

    My love, life, future husband/baby daddy whom I’ve lived with for the past THREE!!! years just broke up with me today and moved out. The last time we just had a fight and took a week apart I dropped ten pounds. I cannot even imagine what’s to come now that its officially over.

    The thought of him ever being with someone else is enough to make me want to throw up….

    breakups SUCK.
