Welcome to my first post!

[after 10 minutes of staring at the screen]

So...here's my theory - there are a finite number of experiences in life, and infinite reactions. Each time you have an certain experience, say - for the sake of arguement, ending a relationship - there are infinite ways you can react to it. Some of the ways I've previously reacted (not recommended):

1. Going to the person's house, drawing a chalk outline on their driveway, pouring condensed milk in the crotch of said drawing, and writing "excessive ejaculation" with an arrow indicating it was the cause of death.

2. Writing 10 letters to the person in the course of three days.

3. Attempting suicide.

4. Crying in bed for a week, claiming to have pneumonia to get out of work, not eating or showering, and listening to a specially prepared "sad mix" tape until it destroys itself to get away from you.

5. Complete and utter stoicism, followed by a 24 hour drunken binge wherein you makeout with any guy who happens across your path.

6. Making a friend into "rebound guy" by finally giving it up to him, only to suffer the inevitable consequences.

You get the idea. Anyway, it's happened again. But this time, Cat said "You are a new person in a situation that's all too familiar to all of us". And she was right. I'm none of those people now, but I embrace them; because without them, I would be making plans right now to show up drunk at his AA meeting.
