Was at a bar and my current girlfriend said “your ex girlfriend is here” and I thought she meant my last GF but she did not know what the last ex GF looked like. It was the GF from 82/87 that was there, they went to HS together.

Ah, that reminds me. I once had one-time sex with one of my exes, 11 years after he ghosted me. Because of the ghosting I was totally not into getting back together, and our one-time sex was basically getting him off and walking away without looking back.

I dated Dan for several months when I was 17 bu t we stayed friends after splitting over his smoking/getting high, hooked up a few times when I was 24 b/c Legends Of The Fall had come out and it reminded me of how much he looked like Brad Pitt, and then he found me on [Classmates.com](http://Classmates.com) (lordy I am old) in 2001; we got engaged but after 7-8 months split on September 10, 2001.  
I used to have a tendency to date men who lie to me about their substance use. Now, I give liars no second chances.
