If not, just let both parties know that the former other half is coming as well and if they are bringing a date, that might be good info to pass on as well. After a while though it should be perfectly fine to invite both, even when they are dating or have established a new relationship, without saying a thing. All of this depends on how adult the two friends can act and what you are prepared to deal with as the host.Kyle Leachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13369076904327452139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9822653.post-33425917189226065132010-09-01T08:58:32.928-04:002010-09-01T08:58:32.928-04:00"Do you invite both...?"
"Is that d..."Do you invite both...?"<br />"Is that disrespectful to the single guy?"<br />I think it would be disrespectful to NOT invite one of them. Just let them both know that the other is invited and remind them you do not play favorites.Cubbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12659801291785890663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9822653.post-4326961806539705142010-08-31T21:42:48.196-04:002010-08-31T21:42:48.196-04:00These are tough situations.

I wanted to stay friends with both, but Bobby basically stopped being friends with me. I still miss him 6 years later.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9822653.post-45591261864285499322010-08-31T18:07:38.372-04:002010-08-31T18:07:38.372-04:00that's walking a fine line there...I don't...that's walking a fine line there...I don't have an answer to the mutual friend breakup.<br /><br />I initiated the breakup with spouse #1; he went on to marry someone else with whom he had children and he lives on the west coast. his oldest kid just graduated high school in june.<br /><br />someone else initiated another breakup with me; I was not willing for it to end. I still wonder what might have been in that relationship...<br /><br />and I like both versions of the neil sedaka song; I can sing the doo-wop version better now that my voice has changed (getting older and deeper). I can SO see you singing the 70s version in your wonderful voice! damn, if we evah meet there would have to be some kind of private singing going on because I DO NOT sing in public.<br /><br />oh yeah, I could also teach the crush a thing or two about "singing" (just sayin')...anne marie in phillynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9822653.post-16082377337433655692010-08-31T17:34:25.772-04:002010-08-31T17:34:25.772-04:00oooh thats a tricky one.

I would love to know the feeling that one gets when they think of their lost love whilst listening to sad songs.Mind Of Minehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09112890718925524313noreply@blogger.com
