I love this post. It really made me think as a serial “Never speak to me again.” dater. I always mean that when I say it. But deep down, I have a little part of me that hopes that they will prove me wrong and be able to come to me and say something to change whatever pain has gone down between us. It has never happened, and probably rightfully so. I completely cosign on “I go hard, baby. Then I crash and burn.” I do this every time I have date or meet someone that I really connect with. If I have truly gone hard with them, and that’s where we ended up, then there is a really good reason for that.
I have had one guy in particular that has not respected my wishes, and it is painful every time he contacts me. (Especially because it’s usually slick stuff like forwarded emails or tagging me in sweet poems and notes about forgiveness on Facebook.) As much as I cared about him at the time, every time he comes near me it brings back bad memories of one of the most mean, selfish things someone has ever done to me. My wish for peace and closure always outweighs that little part of me that wishes he would be able to come back and say something to make it all okay.
