I used to have a vibrant social life with plenty of friends, then my ex cheated on me. When I broke up with her she told all of our friends that I raped her (we were together for 5years) and they took her side. I was heart-broken, very depressed, and left with no friends. At University I had a few people on the Track & Field team and in my program that I'd hang out with but they all moved away after getting their degrees. Now days I only meet people through my job, or co-workers think "I'd be perfect for" someone and try to get me hooked up. I work with good people, but no one I'd want to go to a Pub or Movie with.
On a nearly unrelated note, nearly 7 years since the cheating one wrecked my social life she sent me a message on facebook apologizing for what she did to me because she's "found God" (her words) and now needs to atone. I wondered what brought that about and did a little digging. Seems she cheated on the guy she married and he got the kids they had; after a blood test (she ordered to try to keep the kids) turned out he wasn't the Father of the oldest one, that proved infidelity and the judge overturned the alimony requirement. She got custody of the oldest and tried to find out who the daddy is to try to get child support. She found the guy then he, and his wife, took her to court for custody and WON. She owes support now for 3 kids she doesn't get to see all but a couple days a month. So it turned out she contacted me as part of court ordered therapy for self destructive behavior (couldn't find out how that came about). I wish I was making this up, almost makes me believe in karma.
A few of the friends from the break-up incident have also since apologized to me but they can all go choke on their own vomit for all I care, losers never went to school and all work minimum wage.
Long side-story short I just work and then it's time for internet and games, with an occasional fling with a new girl in the office here and there to round things out.
