Seeing old flames

[PyroChamber]

Have you ever gone on social media, or even out in public, and you saw an ex or an old crush from high school or college (or even before that) and you realized that they either still looked good or you dodged a major bullet?

 

[Fallen Angel]

Dodged a massive bullet dude. She looked great I'll give her that but she's involved and hang's with the wrong type of people and B) She batsh** crazy.

I just recently started talking to my last GF on Bookface. I totally screwed up by breaking up with her. She is still smoking hot and was a great girl. Kicking myself for that one

Old flames? Hah! I have people walk up to me in public and ask if I remember them, and 9 times out of 10 they've changed so much that I don't. I guess once you hit your 40's this is a common thing.

 

[Grabes30]

If I saw my last one I'd run away. Very literally. Cart full of groceries, I don't care. That girl was bat.****.crazy.

Saw a girl I had a thing for in high school on Facebook recently for the first time in about 12 years. Still an absolute glamour at 30.

 

[<(o_o)>]

Yes most of the girls I had a thing for but never had a chance in hell with back in High School still look great today IMO almost 20 years later.

Recently, I looked up two girls I went to high school with that wouldn't even look at me let alone speak. And they both still looked hot, only difference was they both had three kids and from what I could tell they were single.

But it always sucks when you see a girl you knew who looked hot before but now looks like a hot mess, almost makes you wonder what you saw in them.

Whenever you see an old flame, two things happen:

1. Butterflies in the stomach

2. Embarrassment over something you did that f***ed it up

Belee dat!

 

[PyroChamber]

Or on the other side, when the old flame sees you it's either

A) He got hot!

B) He got ugly.

C) He's cute but he's still a loser

D) Wait, who are you?

I've noticed children seem to play a part. Most of the girls I found really attractive at school who didn't have children remained very attractive today. The ones who had kids more often than not looked completely worn out.

The girl I was head over heels with (she tried to put me on "pause" while she pursued another guy then had the audacity to tell me there was still a chance for us, to which I said "nope". After some time I started seeing someone else. I was over the first girl but I'd never felt that way for anyone else since which sucked) is now overweight, stuck in a town of bum-**** nowhere and she's been seeing the same loser for 4 years. Turns out she has no life outside of him and he's too jealous to let her have ANY guy friends, meanwhile he apparently follows all these attention *****s on instagram and hits on em all the time.

Good riddance.

There was another girl who I found on facebook 3 years ago that I had a thing for my senior year of high school. She become my friend, so she said, but she only spoke to me when no one else was around so she thought less of me than her other friends. I would see her around town every now and then after high school, until eventually I stopped seeing her and I moved.

Three years ago I found her on FB, but didn't contact her. Turns out she has a kid got married and now lives in Mississippi, and in the pics I saw it looked like she lived in a trailer. And she was only okay looking back then and still looked sort of the same.

[Schlosser85]

My ex used to be rail-thin, now he's gotten chubby. I'm kind of surprised, as he was one of those people who didn't like he'd even be capable of gaining weight.

He's married now to a pastor-in-training in Philadelphia (one of the conflicts in our relationship was that he'd get on my ass about me being an atheist), and they seem happy, I guess....although according to other people who've dated his husband, they might be right for each other because they're both compulsive liars who like to **** with people's heads.

So, a match made in hell heaven maybe?

 

[Schlosser85]

By the way, did anyone else find their ex attractive while dating them and now look back and think they're almost physically repulsive? And I'm not talking about since the weight gain.

Maybe it's some personality things coloring it.

Go watch Vanilla Sky.

The Cameron Diaz car scene should help y'all realize the truth.

You want to get in the car?

Nah, I'm good.

I hunted down an old high school crush and he's living in Virginia now. We Skype occasionally, but I sometimes wished we had realized our feelings back in high school.
