perhaps this is wishful thinking,but is getting Christmas cards and Facebook messesges from ex-girlfriends the green light?Please say yes!!!
OT-ex girlfriends
- Thread starter loosey goosey
- Start date
I would say go for it and see what happens if you are interested. It definitely doesn't seem like the kiss of death.
They are EX for a reason. It didn't work the first time it ain't goin to work this time either. Now if you just want
To get lucky play a little hard to get , hit it hard then dump her before she dumps you. Haha
So I just got a card in the mail two days ago from a friend that I grew up with in Tennessee. She asked me for my address two years ago because she was getting married last year but I don't think that went down.
Sooooo... there's a bunch of hearts on it and "love ya's" and let's just say I'm not the one who got the mail that day.
Never realized how rigorous it is to try to explain that one and there's nothing to even lie about. The girl was a tomboy and was wrecked by most of my friends.

I would say it's a green light especially if there's anything written inside that seems positive.
I received such a card once but my foolish pride (I had broke up with her) plus the fact that I was dating someone I never responded to the Christmas card.
Looking back, perhaps I should of.

I do want to get lucky,do I take the Don Drapper approach or try the Swingers movie vibe?
Yellow light. Proceed with caution.
Not if you're married. Wives tend to frown on that sort of thing.
You poor bastard. If you want to meet at Bellisario's or some other gin joint in the north hills to discuss how to extract yourself from this disaster, I am willing to share some highly specialized knowledge.
For whatever reason I thought of this song....
Here's a live version that's a really good...

Didn't Austin Nit ask for advice at one time?

Green light but but be only "semi-interested" in your response. "Semi-interest" is useful during the "dating years", but once you get to the "finding a serious spouse" years, it tends to backfire.
My advice is to simply send back an enhanced semi-interest response message wherein you one-up her "Merry Christmas" by including something like "Merry Christmas to you and your special (dear) family".
The inclusion of the family reference will be viewed very, very favorably by the recipient.
What you do with this sage advice is up to you. I'm only the voice of experience.

Austin Nit resurfaced as Simons a few years ago. Not sure what happened to him.
Switch it around. If you were reaching out to some old flame after years since a breakup she'd be putting you in the crazed-obsessed stalker category. Our male egos relish this attention. Women think it's creepy.
Just says she is a woman and feeling the need at the moment for more attention and reinforcement. "Yellow light" was good advice. Be polite and tell her by the same venues, how nice it was to hear from a trusted, good friend in the Holiday season. See if she says, "let's take this to the bedroom"!
I didn't ask you to tell us what you think nor did I want to hear about switching it around. I'd like to hear from the ladies on the board. If an old girlfriend, assuming flame, contacts you around Christmas with greetings should we expect to get lucky soon if we make any effort?
Ahh crap I better to respond to this........so have an ex right now living at house still until she finds /heaven help me BUYS a place. I've let it be know this needs to happen with expediency but not kicking her to the curb until around I think about JAN 15. Think I can handle that: I'l be out of town for holidays. Anyways, its as amicable as one might think. One annoyance I have is when she thanks me for all I've done for her and she says "I'l do almost......anything for (me) with a little flirtatious grin like I'm gonna get lucky or something. Figure it's just a woman relishing THAT control they have over you. If I were you I would take my advise and leave it alone. Yellow light for sure but your not at the intersection yet means halt !
Eddie Van Halen saidbit best when his band and David Lee got back together.
"Once we got back together, we realized why we parted ways in the first place."
That being said, each case is unique. So, if your heart wants to get back, then try.
I am FB friends with my ex's. We still speak. Both of us are different persons when we dated.
But, I wouldnt ass/u/me just because they sent you a Xmas card or FB request they wanna get back together. They just may be cordial and considerate things to do.
