DIE ON THIS HILL
relationships

Staying friends with an ex is almost always a mistake

This hill is unclaimed. Nobody is willing to die on it. Yet. First blood pending.

  • Pay, and you hold it.
  • Anyone can dethrone you for more.
  • Every claim stays on the record.

No claims on the record.

The other side

A shared history is real infrastructure. Someone who knows the family and the bad year stays useful long after the romance fades. Plenty of couples separate because the pairing was wrong while the affection held. Cutting that person loose discards a witness to years of a life. Co-parents and people in small towns manage it routinely. The awkwardness has an expiry date.
