Ex: that person who you had to go out of your way to see while dating, but, inevitably, see more of when you’re trying to avoid them.

You know this is true. If you guys were dating, it would take you over a MONTH to get a hold of the dude, but as soon as you guys break it off you successfully manage to see him in the supermarket every time you go.

This is what I like to call Universal Irony or "galactic cutting." You inflict this pain apon yourself by dating and then having it not work.

Kids, avoid dating like the plague.
