My Sweet Life

I have to attend training in Singapore for 4 days.

Yes, Monday to Thursday. I want to stay till Sunday but I dont want to spend money on hotels so I emailed and ym'd my close friends in singapore, hoping that they could adopt me for 3 nights (poor me).

After endless chatting, my friends can only take me out on weekends but could not help me out with a place to stay because:  they just moved to a new apartment, or they have a roommate, or their family is already staying there for summer and I have to sleep in the couch with her brothers..or I could stay there in July but not June.......bla bla bla.......bad timing.

Everyone is booked...except for one....my ex Mark .

Mark, whom I broke up with 3 years ago is now studying Culinary arts in Singapore. I chatted with him, and he said that he is all alone in his apartment and Im welcome to stay anytime.

We broke up 3 years ago in a good way. I felt that he was not matured enough then to get into a serious relationship, so I decided to call it quits. 3 Years forward, he is now finishing Culinary arts and with plans to take over their family restaurant biz. Good for you Mark.

So..the question is....would you stay in your ex's apartment for 3 nights? We are both unattached now and no plans of getting back together.

Is it ok to stay there? My friend Jen said It is perfectly ok, her rationale is if you've been "together" before, you've overcome the excitement of being "together", there is nothing to prove or to try anymore, we can be very civil and treat each other as best buddies from high school.

hmm....she's partly right. ...

but.....

...an Ex is also someone who you can get really comfortable with........someone you know inside out.....someone who you can trust...someone who can keep a secret.....someone you can do things with, without being judged.....someone safe to be crazy with.....

aghhhhhhh........I'm not sure.....should I stay there...and save shopping money for that Coach bag?

would you do it? help!
