Should I respond to this?

In My Humble Opinion
1

OK,

I just spent about 30 minutes typing up some arrogant garbage about how much I hate everything I’m about to type, but I deleted it all (it was LONG).

So fuck it. I’ll cut to the point. I dated a nice girl for 3+ years. She really is what you would ideally want in another person. Cute, smart, “morals” (didn’t cheat (I guess)). Anyway, things didn’t work out (she has an eating disorder (hardcore))…

Tried working it out. I did my best (did I?), which I know wasn’t as good as it could/should have been (I turned the other cheek WAY too much).

Even after we broke up, we’ve been “friends”, but the ISSUE never escaped us (me?). So, I haven’t heard from her for 6/7 months now, which really is a long time (since we’ve met, in 1999).

…and… I get this e-mail today:

“Happy Birthday a couple of days early. Ran into Chris at Target today - reminded me that I was going to email you. I have some important news - was wondering if I could stop by your office some afternoon this week. Let me know if/when would be a good time. Thanks.”
HOW ------- IF _________ SHOULD I >>>>>>>> Respond?

Hell, I typed more than I thought I would. Sorry.

How about, “Sure. How about 4pm Monday or Tuesday.”

Or the flip side. “Piss off”

Seems obvious that she’s still on your mind. So find out what she wants to tell you. Reply positively and see what happens.

Two Words: DNA Test
:eek:

I think you should meet her. Otherwise you’ll just be wondering what she had to say.

7

Definitely meet her, maybe she beat her eating disorder.

You know damned well you’re going to see her, so do it.

Seems to me you’re strill in love. If so, I hope the news is good beyond your wildest dreams, and the two of you live happily ever after.

It’s my policy to always try give people the benefit of the doubt, unless they’ve shown repeatedly that they don’t deserve it. You haven’t indicated otherwise, so I would say see her. hear what she has to say.
