The Single Woman Says:

You can bet the bank on it – give an ex-boyfriend long enough and he will always come back around. It’s just one of those undeniable facts of life, like spilling something on yourself every time you wear a new shirt or men leaving the toilet seat up – it’s gonna happen.

Let’s ponder the prefix “Ex” for a minute: Exile, excommunicate, exclude, extradite, exhume, exhausted…do any of these words give you a warm and fuzzy feeling? There’s a reason that “ex” comes before “boyfriend” – and it’s best to leave that relationship in the ground where it belongs and not try and recreate a moment that probably wasn’t all that great to begin with. Remember: If he didn’t make it past your past, he’s certainly not worthy of your future, so quit wasting time on “what might have been” and look ahead to what might be! Just because “ex” didn’t mark the spot doesn’t mean there’s not still buried treasure to be found…most likely where you’re least expecting it. So here’s a shovel. Start diggin’.
