I really really hate the question: can men & women really be "just friends" - its a hetrosexist objectification of everyone involved.

@chaosprime I struggle with this a lot, I refuse to refer to my late bf as an ex, but don't always want to invoke the pity around death. -
@DarDarla hmm, yeah, tough. the taxonomical part of my brain is bouncing around that one like a ferret on PCP. -
@chaosprime there are a few people I dated while they were in between relationships, one I went to their wedding. So much joy.

@chaosprime but there is no context by which to refer to that. Not exs because we never promised anything more than the moments we shared. -
@DarDarla *nod* basically impossible to briefly contextualize the thing in a way that doesn't make it sound like a present going concern. -
@DarDarla Vonnegut's "karass" can be helpful sometimes. more people know it than something invented on the spot, anyway. -
@chaosprime Ill have to look that up.
