I just saw and spoke with Coral (my ex). She was at the same cafe I'm at right now. I noticed her when she was ordering her drink and ignored it.

Then about ten minutes later she came up to me and said hi because she apperantly felt bad because she also had ingnored me. I lied and said that I hand't even noticed her.

she mentioned seeing me earlier this month (see the blog I wrote about it). I said I was cool with it.

I was trying to think of thing to talk about to avoid the awkward silences, I also had trouble making eye contact which  is unusual for me I always try to make eye contact when I talk to people.

We talked about work and school (she's looking for a summer job right now and she graduates next year).

There was alot of avoiding the giant elephant in the room. We just talked about how things are now. How's life? How do I like my apartment? Anything to not talk about the fucked past.

The entire couple minutes was so awkard. I mean the only way it would have gotten any worse is if we were both naked or something. You could have cut up the awkwardness and served it for supper.

Why the fuck couldn't she just have ignored me?

Now, I'm probably going to get an email or text message from her about this how we shouldn't be friends or that she is feeling confused or whatever bullshit she is going to get out of our little chat.

 

Thanks,

Mark

Too bad she didn't just nod politely in your general direction and get the hell out of the cafe.  That's what a mature and reasonably well-adjusted individual would do.

Hey Mark...you know these things are sent to try us right...?

I completely understand what it must be like...i really do. You need to feel that you are a better person and if she doesn't see that then it's her loss..ok!

Re: No, That wasn't awkward :(
She probably stopped to talk for her own personal reasons not knowing how much it might hurt, yet it could have hurt her too, you two were supposedly close at one point, right? Who knows why she did that. She just stopped and talked, though, where is the harm in that? There's no bigger or smaller person in a conversation no matter how awkward. That's my opinion and I'm sticking to it. She did not threaten you, she didn't talk about your relationship, just small talk. That might have been her way of finding closure, a helluva way for closure of a supposedly once meaningful relationship. The other day when she saw you probably bugged her and she wanted to show you that she has not forgotten, even though when she tries her efforts are childish and immature. After the break-up she knows that she cannot have you anymore and you don't want her any more after everything, plus apparently she is taken. May be, have you even thought, she just wanted to talk? It may seem weird, but it is a good thing you two weren't naked, because that would have been way too awkward.
