I was getting high and thinking about my ex-girlfriend. And then I
couldn’t actually remember who my ex-girlfriend was. I’m more of an “It’s Complicated” kinda guy so for sake of blogging,
let’s say I have many an ex-girlfriend. SO who am I speaking about specifically
you may ask? ALL OF THEM!
Let’s be fair though. It takes one to make one an ex and I’d like to think that I’m about
70/30 when it comes to dealing the break up and receiving it. I’m sure I was to
blame for most of my relationships gone awry but we all did our parts. I need not go
into detail. If you’ve ever grown up in life, you should have encountered this
situation in some way, shape or form.
Which brings us to the theme of the
moment…truly, it doesn’t bring us to that thought.
But this will.
You remember that conversation you and
your ex had about loving each other, fully respecting one another’s autonomy
and that in the end, you just wanted to see each other happy. But then
something happened: you’re not together anymore.
I for one would like to think that any
promise made during a relationship should only apply during the term of that
relationship (except those
rare special cases, like, “I won’t fuck your best friend”). And so now that
the relationship is over, should
you honor those promises?
Maybe. But if you’re like me (and I get a sneaking suspicion you
are) you didn’t. You probably
didn’t curse them out or wish death upon them, but you definitely didn’t want
to see them happy.
And THIS,
my friends, brings us to the
question of the hour (for real
this time):
Sometimes, when I’m all alone and no one
is watching, I secretly wish my ex is alone and suffering and thinking about
me.

| I DID THIS TO YOU |
Judge all you
want but you know that you’ve had this feeling at least once in your life. You
may even be BEST FRIENDS with your ex: and for a moment, when
she is crying to you about what her current man did and you are consoling
her…you slightly smirk to yourself and think (and
you thought I was gonna be the only one. SUCKER!)
If you’re thinking this is an everyday
thought, you’re very wrong.
It happens every once in a while, during the break up scene of a good movie or
when you hear a certain type of song…which brings me to our conclusion…
If we all know this feeling and hate this
feeling, why do we have so many songs about it? And good songs at that? Why
would anyone want to relive this terrible feeling? It’s a rhetorical question so don’t even answer in
your head. I know why. And
if you don’t then I guess it’s one of those little dirty secrets of life that
you only see in Disney movies.
Below are a list of some of the songs
that “WE” (because your on
my side while your reading this) hope
the exes are singing about us and beneath that are the songs they’re probably
really playing. I’m aware that there are many more but these are some of OUR
favorites.
THE HOPE
1. N’Sync : I Want You Back - Half of yall didn’t even realize
this was a sad song so busy dancin’.
2. Deborah
Cox ft R.L. : We
Can’t Be Friends – Great
song, and they sing it together. Depending on which way you swing, I’m sure you
think some one was hurt more in the song.
3. R.
Kelly: I Can’t Sleep – This is back when R. Kelly was
singing, not sing/rapping. And he sang the shit out of this song. Your ex aint
even know they were missing you until they heard this song.
THE REALITY
1. Cee-lo
Green: Fuck You – The title pretty much says it all.
But in case it doesn’t this would be your ex saying FUCK YOU
2. Eamon: I Don’t Want You Back - You remember this song. Dude couldn’t
really sing, chorus highlighted by “Fuck you you bitch, I don’t want you back”.
Yeah. Your ex may be feeling this way right now
3. Everyone
who did a Marvin’s Room Remix: Marvin’s
Room – While I am not a
fan of the song I am aware that many an ex has used the lyrics to say some soft
ass, passive aggressive shit. Good for them.
