So question: Do you think its weird for a person from a previous relationship who you have little contact with to all of the sudden message you to say - eag May 14, 14:23 32
- chaulk it up to " dudes are freaks" they want what they can no longer have - Epiphany May 14, 15:11 5
  - Did you read some of my coments and replies below - eag May 14, 15:17 4
    - I'm just thinking he's being an ass, but not a concern -- nm - Epiphany May 14, 16:07
    - it's fine. it could have been worse if she bit at the tone. -- nm - b. May 14, 15:27 2
      - Well maybe a tiny worry - eag May 14, 15:33 1
        
        She let him go for a reason. No worries - Epiphany May 14, 16:08
- my guess: she broke it off with him. I don't think it's that odd, but I do think it's something to be ignored. -- nm - b. May 14, 14:54 2
  - In answer to your question - eag May 14, 15:00 1
    - that's it, then. ignore him and move along. - b. May 14, 15:05
- Maybe they have mature, healthy, "after relationship" connection and they want the best for each other even if it's not WITH each other. -- nm - CrankYanker May 14, 14:53
- no yesterday was motherday :) -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 14, 14:52
- yes. -- nm - loosilu May 14, 14:36 2
  - Glad im not the only one who thinks it -- nm - eag May 14, 14:39 1
    - Also add to that this around 2 years ago that they broke up and he is now in another relationship -- nm - eag May 14, 14:43
- ~I ain't tryin' to hear that, see?~ -- nm - con_carne May 14, 14:36
- Yes, it's weird. -- nm - Roger More May 14, 14:36
- Yes. -- nm - TFox May 14, 14:34

        so the fact a straight man thinks hooking up with a tranny would make him hurl is bad now? -- nm - Beaker May 14, 15:13 1
        
        I will go on record saying I would hurl! Accepting others lifestyles is one thing but participation in them is another. Penis is gross. -- nm - Bacon May 14, 16:11
