Thought this might be fun!


Saying "Let's still be friends" after a break-up is like saying....


"The dog died but we can still keep it"





((Add your own analogy and let's have some laughs!))

    yeah it doesn't work, I will admit there are an odd few that I'm still friends with, but so rare!

    When I break up with a lady I say, "It's not me, it's you" :)

    I'm friends with most of my ex-boyfriends, mostly because it would be awkward not to because we have so many friends in common and go to all the same places, it's just easier to try and still get along. one is still a very good friend and my current gym buddy.

    I've managed it with everyone I've dated except for my second ex-wife (I don't think she'd spit on me if I was on fire). A lot depends on the reasons for the break-up and how much of a friendship existed before and during dating but it can work.

    I do like the analogy though LOL...for my marriage that one totally works. That dog was dead and stinkin'! :sick:

    ....is like kidnappers saying "keep in touch" after they let you go.

    I'm guessing that life like action is more expensive

    It means "I won't divulge your secrets if you won't divulge mine." It's insurance. Or blackmail.

    "Maybe a drunken booty call some night?"

    It's like winning the lottery, and them offering you a Bed, Bath, and Beyond coupon instead. *sigh*

    On a related note, I'm moving in with my most recent ex as roommates, no romance allowed. Too bad I still have feelings for him. Welcome to awkward-ville...

    Translation: "Can I keep you as back-up in case it doesn't work out with the other person I'm sleeping with?"
