I'll try to keep the length of this reasonable, but since the subjects are people I'm more familiar with and have a different insight into I'm not sure I can promise that

Being a sociology major probably did not help with the "I'm right" voice with regards to Brian as often our conversations were somewhat political in nature. I had lots and lots and lots of facts at my disposal... and they totally didn't matter.
It also wasn't a problem til probably senior year where he was having more issues.
I vaguely recall tripping over him a lot the first month of freshman year and wondering if the boy was stalking me. Either his schedule changed slightly or he ended up taking different path to class or something. I had one class with him allegedly (which I don't remember, it was 8AM calc, I had other worries) The tripping over him constantly was at other random times of day and he didn't talk. Just appeared to be everywhere. It was odd.
Re: Mariah & Jojo. Yeah, that's pretty much what I mean. I don't think they believed him. But, considering I was honest with them about trying to stop being a master manipulator, it would have been easy to believe him instead, or to use it as an excuse to dump me. I banked my strategy on the idea my friends would believe in me

He didn't tell you! Oh... oh dear. Sorry about that I didn't know. Yeah I liked you a lot but I was a tad worried at first (before I got to know you) that you were going to be threatened by "the ex" being such a close friend. Lol you have me fair to rights though... scattered indeed. All my ADHD but it's become a positive with age. I remember being very relieved that he had picked such a great person to date and one I could be friends with.
Actually, as I remember it, after at bit of the two of us dancing around, you asked me if Brian had told me, which I was very greatful for. I didn't want to ask for fear it would come out accusing, and if by chance I was wrong, paranoid.
And, after spending even a bit of time on the etiquette boards, I certainly don't blame you for being worried about it. I'm amazed at the number of women who try to insist that their new boyfriend MUST cut off all contact with ex-girlfriends. That would so not have worked, and I would have had to been a real bitch to try it.
Perhaps I'll make my way back to Ohio in a year or two. I'm trying to decide what to do for a vacation, but since I recently lost my roommate (he moved out because he and his fiancee are finally prepping for marriage. yeah them!), my finances are tighter than I'd like.
