She is my ex.

She was my girlfriend back in 5th grade or so, and we kinda had a falling out sometime during that year, leaving both of us very emotionally hurt.

We were both really special to each other at the time.

She got over it before I did.

Now don’t use the term “i love you” loosely anymore.

And this was the first time we’d seen each other in three or four years.

So, we exchange pleasantries, telling each other how much we’ve changed and whatnot. The conversation is just starting to lose it’s awkwardness when all of the sudden this kid about as tall as me with long dark hair skates up behind her.

My ex introduces this guy as her boyfriend. She whispers something to him and I’m pretty sure it’s “This guy is my ex boyfriend” or something of that sort. He looks at me. Doesn’t say a word.

I nonchalantly greet him and say goodbye to the both of them.

It’s not like i have a grudge or anything against them, I just kinda felt put out for some inexplicable reason. Oh, the mystery of human emotion…
