Ex- and I start talking again after a year or so of having broken up. Ex- tells me all about new relationship that's taking place. I'm supportive and sympathetic. He calls me on a regular basis, telling me how much he doesn't think the other relationship is going to work because of a variety of problems. I'm supportive and sympathetic. I'm making plans to leave the state, so of course we have goodbye sex, because as far as I know, the other relationship is falling apart. Ex- gets extremely weird around me after that, doesn't talk to me, doesn't say anything when he does talk to me. Finally, I ask him what the hell is going on and it turns out he's upset because his relationship is falling apart. Yeah, so what, it's always been falling apart? Turns out that he didn't want to "upset" me with how good things were going so he selectively told me only the bad things about the relationship because he thought he'd "lose" me (as a friend, of course) if I knew how much he was in love with this other girl. I got upset, and our relationship really never recovered from that whole thing, and I don't generally trust that I'm getting the whole story when we do talk.
He actually called last week to say that he was thinking about coming out here for a week and would I be up for a week in his company. There's too much baggage for a week of no-strings-attached sex, and I'm not sure that I would know what to do with him if we weren't sleeping together.
