Me and my ex-girlfriend got together, oddly enough.

Yeah, we got back together. Why am I telling you this? I don't really know, but this story you might find interesting, or at least a bit more than ordinary. It happened too, so I'm quite at a distance on this.

I haven't seen my ex-girlfriend ever since we broke up, mostly because of the fact that she left the next day to go to Australia. I couldn't really care less, but hey, what can I do?

We broke up because I wanted to play Halo 2 more than spend time together, and therefore she called me a 'insubordinate idiot' for playing Halo 2, which pissed me off and broke up our relationship. Go figure :p .

So, I didn't get another girlfriend, mostly since KOTOR II just came out, and I was still trying to beat Halo 2 on Legendary alone (still haven't completed, still on Quaratine Zone on Legendary). My friends were getting kind of bored of the fact that all I do is just rot my stupid mind away on Star Wars, so I decided to go to a party with one of them. What do I see? Well, lots and lots of people, amongst them my ex and her boyfriend. I still didn't care. All I cared was who there could help me play Utopia online. Yeah, call me a geek, if you must, but I don't care.

She sits down right beside at a poker table, where I was getting smoked at. I love poker, but I can't play it. We started talking to pass the time, since the guy across from us was taking way too long to do anything. Here was technically our mediocre conversation:

Me: Hey, I remember you.
Ex: I used to date you, right?
Me: Holy shit, you're right...(pause)...whatever.

Yep. A three line conversation. Pretty snazzy huh? Well, we talked a bit more but that technically summed up our conversation. After that, her boyfriend walked over to her and he was pretty tall, and he smoked. I hate smokers, smoking in all their stupid poisons. They think they're so cool, being stressed out and then having a cigarette. Then they think they're taking risks and being dangerous by smoking and rotting their lungs. Lets see them handle the world without smoking like the rest of us. Enough of my rambling.

So, he asks her to dance, and they go dancing, while I glare at him because you could smell the cigarettes from a mile away. No kidding, either. They began dancing, and he starts 'feeling' her (never could understand this damn lingo) up. I didn't care, all I cared was if the guy next to me was cheating, since he had a near straight flush. Or so he said.

Then, I hear my ex telling her boyfriend to stop touching her like that, and he keeps on doing it. Jenrak to the rescue, or at least I thought. I didn't care whether she was my ex or not; sexual harassment (or almost) is still harassment, and idiots who think they're cool touching other people are idiots. The guy wasn't drunk, so I was pretty sure he knew what he was doing. I walk up to him, and I say, "Can you not do that, since I don't think she likes that." Whereas the guy responds with a "So?". I then said, "Well, I don't think you should do things to people that they don't want happening to them." At that point, he does the unthinkable and spits in my face. Now, this is not some small little piece, this is a mega lugi spit, enhanced in disgustingness through crappy nicotine and bad choice of drinks. That was when the people laughed, and I went home alone. The only person who didn't laugh was the guy who took so long bluffing at the poker table and my ex. I walked home alone. No one does that to me.

I deduced two facts; he must live near me, since he goes to my ex's old school, and she just moved like down the street for some reason. So, I biked across her street almost every day to catch a glimpsed of where he lived. Call me a stalker, but I find revenge to be quite a companion. I found out where he lived, and one day, I beat the crap out of him. He wasn't as tough as he looked, especially when I'm fueled by revenge. Long story short, my ex broke up with him when he complaint to her about me beating the crap out of him for feeling her up. If she sided with him, I would've called her a dumbass. But she didn't. Turns out she only had 4 boyfriends in her obsolete life, and that I was the only one who didn't feel her up, try to beat her or cheat on her, despite the fact that I almost ditched her for Halo 2.

We got back together, after I got the guts to ask her out again. I don't know how long our relationship will last though, since Republic Commando came out. ;)

True story.

Good man! I hope you gave him a good kick in the ribs whilst he was down, for me. I can't stand someone ignoring a woman's requsets to stop something.

What I don't get is, everybody loves video games, right? Why doesn't she? Anyways, I made sure he didn't feel anybody up for a while, since I broke his fingers as well. It's an art. :rolleyes:

I'm a man with alot of pride, and I don't get pissed off easily. However, you can expect me to do something about it when I do. On another, but similiar note, I thought people would ridicule me for not beating him in public. Meh.

You beat him, he got the message and you've got the girl. That's all that matters.

True. I guess that does all that matters. :D

I walked home alone. No one does that to me.

Sounds like he just did, and to everyone at that party, he got away with it.

Also, you're just a bit creepy.

And calling your girlfriend's life 'obsolete' is just a tiny indicator that you spend a little too much time around electronics, and maybe the light of day would be a good thing for you. It may not get you dumped again.

I get called creepy quite a bit by a fair bit of people, more men than women actually, which I don't know why.

As for obsolete, meh. I do have the light day shine on me. It's shining on me right now.

As for getting dumped, I don't know...hey, what are the odds? She's calling.

Chance is, as long as you don't change you gaming behaviour, the same problems will emerge again someday and it'll be over.

Notice that I'm a gamer, too, since many, many years, but relationships are about compromise and care. If you don't show that you care for her by at least reducing your gaming time...

Someone did this to me once ... once, that is. :D

Just got off. She asked me what our math homework was...how amazingly connective that was...

Good point. Note taken. I'll try to reduce my gaming habits.

Then you know how I feel. Hopefully.

Gee whiz, mr. Jagged Jimmy J, what ever did you do next? :D
[chuckles]
But seriously, I can relate. Revenge is a dish best served cold. With a broken bottle.

I wasn't in a bar. I was at a party at someone's house. But I should've beaten him right there. Then again, someone would've tried to have broken it up. But I should've. :mad:

I know if anyone had spat in my face I'd have floored them right there :)

Good for you for standing up to him, I respect you for that. It's good to see that you protected your ex-girlfriend as well!

Im not sure what I would have done, drop the guy on his head then and there or not, its fairly unpolite to start a fight at someone party but I dont know if I could have contained myself. Good work!

But I have to agree with the others, you shouldnt be calling her life obsolete, concidering all you do is play video games, its alittle hypocritical. We all need something to work on, good luck. :)

He spit in your face, and you left? Wow. I personally would have kicked his ass, right after wiping off my face(dont fight blind, of course).

Yeah, I'm kind of like a bomb. It takes a while for me to accumulate enough anger to strike back and ruin someone's life.
