Dot dot dot.

Gosh. This is weird.

I just received a mail from The Ex's Ex. (both are from like aeons before)

And he is visiting my hometown, Penang sometime next month and wants to hang out.



Surely, I am more than willing to show him around town (not that I am very much aware of the tourist attraction spots) and bask in the glory of a great host worthy to boast.

But this is like awkward.

We don't share any animosity and we do acknowledge each other's existence in a very civil manner. Hardly friends though; more of like acquaintances I reckon. He really is a nice guy and sensitive blablabla all that jazz.

So yeah I don't mind meeting up with him and be a tourguide... but, but, but... I don't know what to say to him. To maintain a fulfilling conversation.

What now?

YES to hanging out and probably be better friends? Plus being a good spokesperson for my town?

or

NO, make up some excuse about not being available and continue moving on with our respective lives; with the occasional "Hey just checking if you are still alive!" scribbling on facebook walls.


I honestly don't know.

SOS! Help? Anyone?

Actually dig a lil' deeper, and you'll know the answer.

I suppose that if there's no residue feelings of animosity, should be okay what. After all, he was an important part of your life once. ^_^

would disagree with anton...even if u say YES, it will be really awkward since there's nothing much to talk abt~ :)

drownedglass said...

Eh wait, it's ex's ex which means it was ur ex who dated both of u. Nothing awkward unless ur ex dumped his ex to get with u?

If not then u have the perfect conversation topic: bitching about the ex!

But ultimately, the answer to yes or no really falls back to the question: HE HAWT OR NAWT???

i'd say, sorry can't make it, too busy.

but like how drownedglass put it, if he's hawt, hey why not? :P

drownedglass n anton has a point...
you've nothing against him rite?
since he doesn't feel awkward asking to hang out with you, maybe he's got all the conversations planned out already...
well...
that's my P.O.V...
just go with it...
the awkwardness would probably fade after a few light conversations! =)
you can talk about your globe-trotting if ur really stuck for ideas! hahaha

Danny said...

do you think he'll like to see you being uncomfortable?
sometimes telling the truth is easier than to think endlessly....
too shy to talk? email is a very good option
gd luck :)

Darren said...

Serm said...

[SK] said...

if you address him by his name, then that is a YES.. if you address him by your ex's ex, then that is a NO.. :)

Mr.D said...

I don't think there should be anything to be awkward about. It's all in the head buddy. :)

Jason said...

Being so inexperience. I cant help. :(

Pluboy2 said...

i dont believe in being friends with ex-.. simply because all of mine never was good...

Ryan said...

Show him around. There is likely a hidden motivation/thought process underlying all of this, so meet up with him and find out what it is. If anything it will entertain you (and us...)
