Hey all. The new semester starts Monday. Me and my ex are in the same field at school. And we both need to take similar courses. She hasn’t taken this course yet and neither have I. There is only one professor and one class and I have a high intuition my ex will be enrolled in this class because it’s one of the last classes she hasn’t taken and doesn’t have much to take left just like me.

I will know Sunday midnight if she is enrolled. I’m not sure if I should drop the course if she is. Or ride it out. She is the most petty and manipulative person and she will def try to get under my skin all semester long.

I know a girl in the class and I’m going to sit with her and act like she doesn’t exist. But not sure if I can keep it up all semester.

Thoughts?

here’s the funny part. My advisor knows all about her. He’s a great guy. We are pretty close. His wife is teaching the course. So I’m sure she will know. But yea I’ll tell the professor if anything.

Hey CryWolf, 

How badly do you need the class and what kinds of stuff do you expect her to do?

Without that information, and as much as I love school, I'd take the class and go on with my life, troubles and all, but I'm pretty intense when it comes to school.

I had a falling out with a casual friend who, looking back may have been BPD, while taking an Arabic language class. She got upset over... .oh gosh... .who knows what, she was not so mature and I had to see her every day for the rest of the semester. I just sat away from her, but it did make me tense. Where did she end up? Trashing her boyfriend's (who was Persian by the way) apartment, absconding with his vehicle, and wrecking his life, etc., etc. He was a good guy! So sweet and generous and made amazing Ghormeh Sabzi! But I digress... .

I know more about your current love interests than your ex. What worries you about seeing her? Which way are you leaning?

take it easy, pearl.
