    He Said/She Said: Is It Smart To Get Back With An Ex?

    First things first, please understand that I am a glutton for punishment. My feelings don’t really get hurt. I’m stubborn. I think I know what’s best for myself and everyone else.

    Happy Pi Day! Today’s date is 3.14, get it?! In case you blocked out the painful experience of high school math from your memory, I’ll tell you a little bit about Pi.

    Dear Dudeness, OK, so I need your help. My ex dumped me about 8 months ago saying that we needed space. I called BS and we didn’t talk after that. But yesterday we were talking, just catching up and I was secretly checking to see if he was with someone. Well he ended up inviting me to a party and so I went.
