About a month ago I went through a break up. At the time he seemingly took it very well and moved on. So I moved on and focused on finding my happiness and rediscovering myself. Recently I started seeing a new guy. The ex came for a visit as a friend and I discovered he wasn't taking it very well at all. Worse, the ex figured out I was seeing someone new, and I had to tell the new guy I couldn't hang out with him because my ex was in town for a visit.
I feel very guilty right now. Yum yum, drama with a side of guilt. Even worse is I've gotten quite a few offers lately-- and I'm not the sort to handle attention from guys very well. My reaction tends to be "huh? Is there something in your eye? Oh, are you smiling at the girl behind m--- oh wait, there's nobody behind me..."
How do you handle drama? Dig in with a spoon, share your stories, your solutions, and times when you wanted to jump out of a window to avoid the tension.
Few ground rules:
1. No explicit Sexual details (unless you provide warning, even then...)
2. If the drama involves another guild member please conceal all names and identifiers.
3. The "Young and the Restless" Theme will be playing in the background for added effect.

dramallama Drama Llama.
PG-13-R-ish content...
I haven't been in a relationship since 2006. The drawn out, excruciating break-up was followed by several months of stalking, both at work and at home (mostly on the phone at home), including several drunken calls and answering machine messages begging me to participate in a wide spectrum of activities that there was not necessarily precedent for, including (but not limited to) getting drunk, taking LSD, getting undressed, smoking various substances, getting undressed, etc. I still occasionally get these calls, but now they also involve asking me to go to Columbus, where she now lives. When the power cord to my answering machine finally crapped out, aided by some cord-chewing felines, I did not rush to replace it. The downside to that is that I can't really screen my calls now.

I think we should invent a drama-o-meter.

My way of dealing with drama is a little hard for people to take, since i cant stand it i pretty much just dive in and deal with it. (think b***h, lol)
i've lost a few friends because they wernt really ready to deal with the problem(s) between us at the time, but some friendships have been fixed some havent, and thats about it.
