Ran into the Ex tonight

**Chitown Raider** · 03-26-2007, 03:52 AM

My buddies wanted to go to this sports bar where I first met her. So I said o.k. let's stop by, well there she was. I never knew how much it could hit one at a specific time. She was like one of the guys she would go out drinking with me and my friends or we could just hang out together.
but more importantly she was always there to listen. I felt like I was in a scene from the twilight zone when I talked to her, two total strangers.

**PROTEINSHAKE** · 03-26-2007, 05:11 AM

**Receiver84** · 03-26-2007, 06:17 AM

We were both a little drunk we talked then she stormed out of the bar with this g/f of hers who was rather annoying. I followed her out told her g/f to go back inside this doesn't concern her. She left and we talked for a few a little bit. I'm not gonna hold my breath, I told her how I felt about her and if she is too blind to see the light then oh, well. Besides I am starting to see that blonde chick from the gym I mentioned before in another thread.

What time are you in the Niles gym?

**anabolicshark** · 03-26-2007, 06:00 PM

i guess its the hardest thing, when you have to think totally opposite of what you feel... i have done similar things in my past... the only thing that ever worked was "total shut down" dont listen to same music, dont go to same places, dont do anything that could remind.... if strict and have good friends, and you meet new ones as you go out 2-3 months and you are fine... more you cheat and remeber or get reminded you add a month per memory...

**anabolicshark** · 03-26-2007, 06:01 PM

niles-if not 11am-1 pm then 9-10pm... at least 3-4 times a week

Good points there. The good thing is there wasn't really much music that we shared or had a song. I usually meet a new girl every weekend when I go out so it takes my mind off things. But, yeah it's when you go back and think about her that makes it harder to forget.

I'll have to stop by next week around that time in the evening. If you know what time your gonna be up there ahead of time could you send me a PM and maybe I could train with you. I have been training solo for the longest so it would be a chaqnge of pace to have a spotter.

**anabolicshark** · 03-26-2007, 06:16 PM

for sure bro.. i would love to have actually someone who knows how to spot, i prefer machines and cables to those posers that come there and stare themselves to death...

you do the same man, if coming my way feel free to PM

**Chitown Raider** · 03-26-2007, 06:22 PM

Sounds good bro. I'll send you a PM next week, taking this week off for recovery.

**Jacky_Zebsten** · 03-26-2007, 09:19 PM

where's the blondes pic?

This is what you *think, and this is how it may APPEAR.

Thats not what I believe.

EVERYTIME your mind reaches back into its memory banks and recalls "precious moments" or w/e you want to call them, what your mind is actually doing is the OPPOSITE of what it does when you first meet a chick who interests you.

Its called simple "association"

When you meet a new girl for instance, (who your compatable with) she may have things about her that other guys would normally not like, but you will associate good things to her behavoir rather than mark it off as a flaw, all her flaws become virtues. Thus follows the quote "love is blind".

The whole process of "falling in love" is how quick and how strongly we make these associations in our mind.

When you BREAK UP however, your mind does the EXACT OPPOSITE. And this what people dont understand. YOU HAVE TO THINK ABOUT THEM IN ORDER TO FORGET THEM (this doesnt apply to everyone but id def say to most ppl)
Even those who repress the thoughts will have dreams at night.

But the whole point is your now learning to "dissassociate" all these little things about her that you associated with good. And a lot of times people go past the dissassociation stage and start to associate these things over time with BAD things.

The funny thing is how often these bad things actually are a more accurate interpretation of your partner then when you were first in love with them.

My main point being, and you might not be conscious of it. Everytime you think about her. You WILL get a negative feeling now. This is how your mind preserves its well being and psychological health. Because the equation of
thoughts + the negative feeling you get when you have the thoughts = the process of forgetting/dissassociation

Thats why YOU MUST THINK ABOUT THEM TO FORGET THEM.
It is natural. 100%.
Over time (different periods for everyone) you'll wind up reassociating everything you believed about her to a new belief system, one that actually more accurate, and she won't be worth a seconds time in your mind anymore.

Bo's title should be changed to AR's Resident Psychologist. Nice post

**anabolicshark** · 03-28-2007, 11:47 PM

Dear BO,

as much as i agree,i really hate to but i do, i still believe-and this is my personal experience, that a person needs alone recovery time, balance what ever you want to call it to get a grasp of reality without the memories and as naturaly they came back could think of them to associate hate and negative feelings with them..
i personally still cant get over many... between you and i lol, but i sure hate them all
good post, i totally agree..but it does not work equally good for all

**Chitown Raider** · 04-07-2007, 06:19 PM

Well, here you go this is my new girl the blonde I met at the gym.
