Quick: What should I do?!

So I dont have plans for thanksgiving and my ex and her family invites me up there for T-Day. I dont know how awkward it would be given the fact that she has a boyfriend (who btw, wont be there the whole weekend if I decide to come.) We broke up in August because of the distance and she still comes back and tells me how she cares still and we both know had it not been for distance it prob would be different. I kinda want to go just for the fireworks, but I'm a lil skeptical. It doesnt help that the tix cost a nice chunk of change.

Basically if I dont do this, sounds like its back to TX for me . My sister bailed out on me and decided to go with her bf for the holiday, so it kinda left me out of any plans with anyone.


Help me out AZ...

Enjoy Tgiving alone - easier to make yourself happy vs making someone else happy.

You're nuts if you go. She has a bf. I would say just enjoy it on your own. I have a couple times. It's not that bad.

don't go.

1. you have to pay for a ticket?
2. her new boyfriend will be there.
3. she has a new boyfriend already even though you just broke up in august and she says that things would be different had you stayed?
4. i'm with miner. it's easier to make yourself happy.
5. stay home, watch some football, go to boston market if you want thanksgiving food.

What's the point?.. Not only does she have a new bf, you'll have to shell out some dough just to spend the Thanksgiving with her and her family. Use the money on something else.

even if he's not coming, you still have to pay for a ticket and deal with the thanksgiving airport traffic.

i'd at least consider going if you only had to drive across town.

Don't you have parents to hang out with? or is that not a possibility?

Just chill at home and watch football all day, that's what I would do.

...Let me get this right...

You want to spend MONEY on an airline ticket so that you can go spend Thanksgiving with an EX, that has a new man, and HE won't even be there because he has other plans - because you are afraid of being lonely?????

Doesn't sound like T-day is your only day of loneliness...and thus not your main problem...get a life of your own...don't be a "stunt double"...they call them "ex" for a reason...

I agree with Darksom, get a "friend" to hang out with not just for holidays, but also for anyday. If you're not ready for another relationship, a "friend" would be perfect (no committment, but someone to spend time with), until she or you develop feelings, which might be okay too if you both end up wanting a relationship...JMO

All the "friends" I meet tend to want to rush into a relationship, while I dont (especially with the travel demands that I have right now with my job)

I laughed today when she mentioned that I was thinking about coming for dinner to her bf. She claimed he was ok with it just for dinner, but the moment she told him I would be staying with her overnight if I came, he hit the roof.

I cant believe she thought that he wouldnt care if an ex came to spend the night...

If her ass was local, you should go over there, play caught up in the moment, fuck her, make with the tupperware, and bounce!! Leave her bewildered looking slutty ass right there! When you have a slut, treat her like a slut! Don't treat her ass like a queen...she'll get confused...

Once I looked at tix back to home and round trip on light travel days, i decided to go since the cost was negligable considering I'll get reimbursed for alternate travel anyways.

Thats how I felt. However, I feel like some fireworks this weekend.

Which is exactly what I think will happen...hahahahaha! I hope not, but I think the chick will get a guilt trip sometime before dinner and not go thru with it all. She already sounds like the type because she told her bf...
