1 reason
i guess the reason i should have been, and i suppose in thinking about it, was a little disturbed by the friend dating an ex is that i hold myself to very different standards which makes something like that catch me off guard.
my problem is i make it a point not to associate with or keep as little contact as possible with my good friends' significant others during and post-dating. this is a limit i can deal with and am quite happy with as even if it seems like i'm being foolish to shun potential friends, i am trying to both keep my friends as friends and give my friends their personal space. not at all doing it for myself in some inane pursuit of self-purity. nah, that's not my style since i know us humans fall all the time. but i hold these ideas for the sake of others just because if i did it for myself i could just change my mind and do the opposite on a whim. i never have, probably never will. not even to "save" a female from an overbearing friend, if a case like that appeared. i dunno why i keep thinking so much. Overthinking. i am even going further but no longer typing...
