dating protocol question

Jul 28, 2004 16:05

What is the protocol involved in telling ex-boyfriends that I am moving away from the area? Also, what is the protocol involved in seeing them (i.e. do I need to make one last appearance? Should I just let bygones be bygones?)

The two that I still keep in touch with (minus T) are Shit Head Air Force Prick (SHAFP) and Still Married Prick (SMP). I haven't talked to SHAFP since October--when he apologized for being such a shit head. We went to lunch as a conciliatory gesture and then I haven't heard from him since. Last I talked to SMP he was still married (gasp) and we went to drinks in mid March. Had a very good time, but then got involved with T and he never really called afterwards.

So, do I call SMP and say "I'm moving in 2 weeks. Wanna get together for a drink?" or "I'm moving in 2 weeks. Thought I'd say bye. Bye." or nothing at all? He and I left our "relationship" last November, but stayed "friends" until we stopped talking. And I do enjoy talking with him--he is just about the only conservative that I can stand being in a political discussion with.

SHAFP is more of an email question as he lives in Wyoming. I could email or IM him and say "I'm moving and will never see you again, so have a good life" or nothing at all.

Any suggestions?
