How to purge someone from your life:
1-delete any text or email messages
2-Leave your phone on the other side of the house, preferably on a different floor where you can't check it every other minute
2-stop answering phone calls
3-don't respond to text messages
4-avoid common areas
5-reserve asking friends for information to every other week or so
6-BIG breathe......delete their phone number.
I've had to follow all of these steps before. Sometimes I just have to do a couple of them for a semi-purge but inevitably I end up following them. They are like my rules of engagement. These steps go for both men and women - I have had to purge a lady friend....it stinks. For some reason I was reminiscing tonight about all my past relationships. Kind of dysfunctional yet always exciting. Guess I'm lucky I made it out mostly in one piece. But why take such extreme measures to cut people out of your life? It made me wonder what dating was like before all of the instant messaging and cell phones and facebooking. Its no wonder more people got married, they didn't have a 1 in 5 chance of doing something stupid. If you were mad then you wrote a letter and they didn't get it for a week. Now you can sent your insanity instantaneously and reap your consequences just as fast.. How much different would my life be if I lived 60 years ago? How much different would your life be? Think about it.

I would be an old maid already.
Agreed. An old maid without the advantage of being able to tell embarrassing and slightly dramatic love stories that always ended in disaster of some kind. So thank you modern technology for at least allowing me to do things I will later regret (ie 3am text messages), but produce almost-romances.
If I lived 60 years ago, I would be in a government camp, because having a Japanese and German "background" would make me a double threat, make that triple, I'm LDS too.
