Re: Awkwardly Camping with Ex & his GF Situation - Advice?

Sounds good that you have some sort of project to work on. Ignore the ex, filter his emails, block his calls, and compost his letters until you get home from the Burning Man. "Until I get home from BM"? I hope to set a new tone with him where I can continue ignoring him indefinitely.. let's see wha...

Haha! I will always hope for the best from people and experiences, but am going to prepare for trouble. I'm curious to see the outcome..

Re: Awkwardly Camping with Ex & his GF Situation - Advice?

No promises! It's Burning Man! It gets pretty crazy! Wait for him to cross the line. Find radical guy. Use radical guy to steal new girlfriend from ex. Evict ex to sex tent and enjoy threesome with new triad. Are you electing yourself to play the role of 'radical guy'? I kid, I kid... :) I'm sure h...

Re: Awkwardly Camping with Ex & his GF Situation - Advice?

From what you have described of this guy, his having sex next to you might be the least of your problems with him. When you take an RV into BRC, what you have going in is all you get for fresh water, tank capacity, propane and fuel. (yes, it is possible to get pump-outs, but they can take a long ti...

SeekingAdvicePlease : You've gotten a lot of good advice here. I'll do my best to add to it. My apologies if what I've written here is serious in tone.

Re: Awkwardly Camping with Ex & his GF Situation - Advice?

Hey, space in an RV? I'll play by your rules. There, that takes care of the extra room in the RV, finding someone who respects your views and would like the space in your RV wasn't so hard. Otherwise I'll be out in the dust..... I promise not to have sex with his girlfriend while you are around. Mo...

Re: Awkwardly Camping with Ex & his GF Situation - Advice?

I really just have one hard and fast rule - no drama in camp. Quite frankly it seems like this situation is a soap opera waiting to happen. Nip it in the bud so you can enjoy your burn. Thank you for your advice. I have enjoyed reading your posts on this forum. I intend to be no where near him when...

Sounds good that you have some sort of project to work on. Ignore the ex, filter his emails, block his calls, and compost his letters until you get home from the Burning Man. Totally right on. Kick him to the curb, after all he will surely understand (as he expects you to)- "No promises! It's Burni...

Re: Awkwardly Camping with Ex & his GF Situation - Advice?

Sorry, my computer is being weird/slow and couldn't get the video to play. If the title of the video means you're suggesting a three-some with the EX and the new GF- who knows.. it could happen. I had a few threesomes with him when we were a couple and they were generally enjoyable. I just have no ...

Re: Awkwardly Camping with Ex & his GF Situation - Advice?

RV life at Burning Man is very tricky...even amongst the best of friends. Most of us don't live with our best friends. When we live with them for 8 days of heat, dust, stank, dehydration, poor sleep...things can go south very quickly. Add a couple fucking away while you're trying to have a quiet cu...

Your RV means your rules.

You're right, I hope I can keep it a relaxing sanctuary and not a tense drama-fest! :)

Re: Awkwardly Camping with Ex & his GF Situation - Advice?

He and his girlfriend need to find another space to sleep/have sex. Sharing an RV, even with a partner, is a tricky situation; His responses to your reasonable requests do not bode well for a shared living space (with anyone). You've paid his dues, that's enough thanks for inviting you to the camp....

Re: Awkwardly Camping with Ex & his GF Situation - Advice?

-If he isn't in the RV, his plan is to sleep in his truck. Well, there is your answer. I would feel so bad if I was in my RV all comfy and relatively dust-free and looked out my window to see him uncomfortable and suffering in his truck. :? I really feel fortunate to be able to attend BM and bring ...

Re: Awkwardly Camping with Ex & his GF Situation - Advice?

He's pretty much told you it's going to happen. That means if you don't kick him out, you have to live with the possibility that he's going to do it. If you wait until after he's crossed the line, then you have to deal with the drama of kicking him out AND ALSO have to watch the RV-a-rockin'. Eithe...

Re: Awkwardly Camping with Ex & his GF Situation - Advice?

He mentioned that he would be very appreciative if he could sleep in the RV (not 'with me', but in a separate bed) and I agreed because at this point it's just me in there and I have extra room. We talked about some ground rules for the RV (only using for sleeping/shelter for dust storms, etc, bein...

Re: Awkwardly Camping with Ex & his GF Situation - Advice?

No, no, no!!! He's trying to change the rules after they were agreed to. If you don't fix this NOW it will fuck with your first burn and nothing can fix THAT. Better to get the drama over with now than have to deal with it on precious burn time. Talk to the GF about this to and try to get her on yo...
