Billy just told me that he's been invited to his ex's birthday party (which I'm prefectly fine with - she is now a lesbian, after all), but he also said that he did attempt to wrangle me an invite but was told that it's a fixed-numbers affair.

Um, hang on a second. Perhaps I am over-reacting, but isn't that an insane thing to do? Is there a girl who would want to go with her boyfriend to his ex's birthday party? I'm not the type to get jealous in the slightest, but I think that I would be found to be very, very awkward if I was at her birthday party. I would feel awful... so uncomfortable... God, just thinking about it is making me feel uncomfortable.

This sounds like jealousy. It's not. (Though, isn't that what the green-eyed monster always whispers to us?) But, christ, would any girl out there actually want to happily attend the party of their partner's ex?

Answers on a postcard please.

...

Anyway.
