I know she's your mate, roystonius, but someone needs to bitchslap that one.
no... i think its me being a gullable Tw@t.
i'll let you know how it goes on friday evening.

Yes, it is you being gullible. Don't give her a gift. Say something like "aw, that's cute, asking for gifts. Hope mom and dad get you everything you want."
A few years ago I wrote a piece called "The Daring Young Men on the Flying Trapezes" <looks through old writing work, can't find it..... crap.>
ANY way it was about the men I have known who can't let go of an old relationship while they are holding on to a new one. They end up stuck between two trapezes, going nowhere.
They talk just like you. We want to be friends, it's okay it's just a little something, I'd be alright with it if my gf gave something to an old bf blah blah blah. It's just hanging on.
Let go.
Believe me. You'll never hear from her again and you won't die.
And your life will be open to all the other possibilties including your PRESENT RELATIONSHIP which I might point out you are trying to puncture. Stop it.
Go to the park.
Find a nice pond.
Imagine the look on the face of the guy who finds the little necklace when they drain the pond twenty five years from now.
Walk toward your future.

You can't beat advice from a man like Joe that has been there and done that.
I think the memory of an X needs time to fade, like an old picture, but if a person keeps repainting the canvas by keeping in constant contact, it will take much longer for that process to work.
Beautiful advice Joe Nation! Along with everyone else's here. Roys, listen to these folks!! You cannot go back my friend, nor would you want to.
HA don't worry I can relate my girl loves dolphins too! Go with whatever you think she might like!
there wasn't a hint of 'why did you get me this' in the air!
she looked genuinely suprised as though i'd not picked up on her hint dropping? we went to the night-club again and danced as per usual and she reckons that ''hypothetically, not that i'm going to, if she offered me it on a plate i'd take it''. i believe she was there for the taking if i had tried but i didn't even wanna. she thinks of me now as her brother sort of who passed away a long time ago. then 1 song came on (if tomorrow never comes) and my emotions hit me hard, we've been doing all the dancing close up since before all the stuff happened and we were doing it when the song came on and for some reason i let a few tears out. she said its ok for me to cry but i dont think she knows what i was thinking of to make me cry. Virtually all the words from the song were what i was thinking of my gf.
i believe we had a good night.
Whoa,wait a minute. I am lost, are you still in love with the ex or are you with a new girl?
then who was the gift for?
You gave the dolphin necklace to the new girl or to your ex?
I'm with you Mikey...I'm really confused now.
i gave the necklace to my ex as a present.
Virtually all the words from the song were what i was thinking of my gf.
Which one is this? If it's your ex, be nice to your current gf and break up with her before you mess her about any more.
my emotions were at an all time high that nite, i've never felt like that with her since we split. it was a mixture ehbeth.
Probably because we'd be dancing fairly close to each other most of the nite. but that was the 1st time a tear came out and we'd danced like that a few times before AFTER we split.
but when she said she thinks more of me as a brother... i dont know how to take it.
