*blurts ex's name*

the reason bitter past can be forgotten..

*sings current's name*

the reason sweet future can be pleasantly awaited!

*resumes bed action*

Stupidosaur said...

Why should name of the insignificant 'ex' be a problem for my significant other? In fact don't your psychology books teach about being 'open' and stuff?

Yes, if its name of the 'other current significant other' that I blurt out, then......*ahem*


****and just because I type 4 sentences does not imply I am not busy. This was my break****

gP said...

@neeku :D

@stupid dinosaur... uh? being open vs getting beaten up, left by ur wife, etc etc etc

P said...

Verbatim "I just realised you are so much better than him"

:D

Neetal said...

What next?

follows.... some serious couples counseling with the shrink !

Or,

give some melodrama =)

*Blurts out Exxy*

I just hate him

*Give a serious pause look to him and then look in other direction*

How could I have been so stupid to waste my time and love for such a (Gali attached)-Exxy

*Then get the puppy eye look and say...*

But then now I thank God for blessing me with you in my life !

*Followed by an angelic smile :)*

Mansi Trivedi said...

Had a dream and he was a monitor eating little worms off the street. For real.
Hate him. Love you.

I love Priya's answer.

Vrijilesh Rai said...

Loved Priya's reply above!

Luckily for me, I've never been in the situation coz I do not have an 'ex' ;)

Pavi!!!! said...

Hec no! Who does that! its sooooooo not funny!

okay i ll try to think n come up wit some ans..but find it so unimaginable a situation!

Solitaire said...

@ Ghost Particle,

Aww..you will give up so easily?

Solitaire said...

@ Me-too,

Oh oh! So dramatic!

Solitaire said...

@ Anonymous,

I hope the partner is a duh to believe that...either that or really desperate to resume bed action.

Solitaire said...

@ Stupidosaur,

No MY psychology books do NOT talk about saying an ex's name IN BED!

Solitaire said...

@ Priya,

Hopefully this sentence is not uttered ten years after your relationship!

Keshi said...

Im afraid I mite actually do that.


If I mumble my ex's name, I'd continue saying this:

"T..owww T's earlobes werent as tasty as these"


lol joking!


I'd just say

"oww shit Im really sorry!"


cos wut else can I really say? I dun wanna lie.

Keshi.

humbl devil said...

what did you do then???
>:P

Solitaire said...

@ Neeku,

I dont know what I would do if a couple comes to me with this problem!!

Solitaire said...

@ Mansi,

Hahaha!! Had a dream?! Hahahah!

Solitaire said...

@ Vrij,

Thank God you said "luckily". I know of some men who are jealous of other people when they say they have a lot of exes!

Solitaire said...

@ Pavi,

Many do! Not intentionally though!

Nirmal said...

hahah if one does that mistake..i dont think there will be NEXT....tat will be the end....

lol..

and if ther is NExt tat means our CURRENT is dumb..so i wud say...
"sweetheart i think i have got our pet's name"...

lol

ishqia said...

no chance of such a situation in my life..

Ankur said...

If she knows...
Say Sorry!!

If she doesnt...
tell her its an actress (if it helps!!! :P )

Cheers!!!

btw.. This only happens when ppl are not in love, or in movies!!!

Chakoli said...

Ash him to take his ex name ;-))

Unknown said...

Hahahahaha... ROTFL.....
I have so many ex's poora raat kat jaayega sab ka naam lete lete!

And ek ka bhi naam galti se nikal gaya..... sab ka naam ledaalega! Just to show how rangeen I was(err am)!

Anamika, Preeti, Padmapriya, Sridevi, Jayaprada, Priyanka, Hema Malini, Phoolan Devi... and the list continues till Dawn...

Besides I'd prefer some action @ dawn :P. The best time for humans to mate! ROFL....

Anonymous said...

well ... you are doomed then...

end of day's play! ;)

Keshi said...

**no chance of such a situation in my life..

**This only happens when ppl are not in love, or in movies



Ishqia and Ankur, dun be so sure. We r humans. And humans do make mistakes. And we can never tell what we'd do/say in the future. And movies arent always unreal either.


Keshi.

Nirmal said...

****We r humans. And humans do make mistakes.**

yup i agree with tat...
wats big deal if i date my Gfs friend.....i m human and i can make mistakes...

lol

Keshi said...

**wats big deal if i date my Gfs friend.....i m human and i can make mistakes

and thats not exactly wut I meant Nirmal :)

Keshi.

Keshi said...

Cos dating ur GF's friend is a 'conscious' choice whereas whispering ur ex's name when in bed with ur current partner isnt.


@Nirmal :)


Keshi.

Nirmal said...

@keshi..

i cant do tat? ok then some gals can live in peace now...

lol

Crimson Feet said...

@keshi... agree to u completely wrt ur answeere to ishqui & ankur!

I'd apologise profusely and spend the rest of the week buying her flowers everyday, surprising her, being super nice to her. doing everything possible to let her know that it was just a mistake and that she is my "present" and therefore matters to me, past is gone...!
Phew!... girls find it tough to take these things!


PS.
this actually happened to me! :)

Solitaire said...

@ Crimson,

OH WOW!!! It did? Now this is a living example of how this CAN HAPPEN..

Ladies and Gentleman, I present to you............

CRIMSON FEET!

May all questions of disbelief be addressed to him.

Solitaire said...

@ Keshi,

Agree with you 100%.

We are humans and do have slips of tongue!

Solitaire said...

@ Rahul,

Game over!? Hahahah!

Anonymous said...

ohh heck ...dnt tell me!


go n drown yurself in yur bathroom!

gP said...

give up!!! thats not giving up! thats survival strategy.

and certainly, if it comes to saying the ex's name in bed, then the current one has some real issues... lalalalala

Solitaire said...

@ Ghost,

OR maybe YOU have issues not being able to let go of the past...

lalalalalalala!

Solitaire said...

@ Veens,

Awww...you know that wont work...

Solitaire said...

@ Iceman,

Has it been proven that the best time for humans to mate is dawn? BTW, no woman will believe you have had so many exes. For all you know, your girl might think these are nicknames for her....ummmm not the Phoolan Devi one though..

Solitaire said...

@ Chakoli,


And like ICEMAN if he has a long list?

Karthik S said...

Just give a blank and terrified look...gradually change it to a sigh-of-relief...take her hand and keep in your chest...then slowly in a husky voice say.... you know honey, i got this weird feeling,as i was getting murdered by a ghost like creature...it resembled exactly my ex... i was really terrified...but..oh thank god..you r near here with me...

I dont know what happening with me these days... we should go to a doc sometime later to check why i'm getting this weird feelings even when i'm awake...

Hope this will help...

Solitaire said...

@ Ankur,

Trust me it happens in real life even when people are in love. It could be a reflex action, a slip of tongue, or a fantasy!

Solitaire said...

@ Ishqia,

From both ends?
BTW, how old is your hubby?

Solitaire said...

@ Nirmal,

She will be soooooo happy to know that you are thinking about a name for your pet (which may be nonexistent) while you are in bed with her.

Keshi said...

ty Crimson!



And wut u said u'd do is so sweet. If I was ur partner, I'd forgive ya totally...and add a pair of Manolo Blahniks with those flowers plz. That'll quicken the 'forgiving' process btw. :)



Keshi.

Solitaire said...

@ Humble,

Haha!! This question is for YOU to answer.

TROJAN SPIRIT said...

Pack ur bag, leave, go to ur home and hv sex with ur wife.

Keshi said...

yes Sol. Humans do make mistakes. We cant trust ourselves 100%.


lol Nirmal ok.


Keshi.

Ankur said...

I trust wat u say and i know there is no answer to it, so i just tried to make it funny!!!

I dont know how much embarrased i will feel and i have no better word than to say Sorry!!!

Sometimes u just wish such things dont happen coz they stick.. and they remain forever!!! :)

Cheers!!!

Solitaire said...

@ Trojan,

Hahahaha!! Remember not to use this ex's name with your current wife though!!

Solitaire said...

@ Karthik,

WOW! What a wonderful story! You should have been a script writer.

humbl devil said...

wont be that stupid to lose my first one...she will be for keeps forever...hehehe

A said...

Nothing yaar...

If u take it lightly, ur partner will take it lightly too...

better not to make an issue out of it...

Solitaire said...

@ Humble,

If its your FIRST one, there will be no ex's name to blurt out!

Solitaire said...

@ Ankur,

Well if they do stick in her head, then you can maybe try and trick her into believing that she had a bad dream!!

Solitaire said...

@ Anjuli,

If my partner yells out his ex's name and tells me, "nothing yaar..light le", I would slap him!

aneri_masi said...

add "kutte kamine" to that...dharmendra style... ;)

or

completely deny it and say tumhare kaan baj rahe hain!

Ankur said...

@Sneha

u temme... tu bhool jayegi aur man legi kya???

Solitaire said...

@ ankur,

Sadly, haan! :(
Am veryyyy forgiving.

Solitaire said...

@ Aneri,

Poor guy!

Ankur said...

@Sneha

then i think d one who will have u is a very lucky guy!!! :)
impressive!!! :)


Cheers!!!

Ankur said...

btw... i dont charge ppl to visit my space...
;)

or u dont feel its worthy enugh 2 pay one visit?
Sigh!!

Chakoli said...

then start in alphabateical order ur class boys name;-))

will taht be enoff or u want us to start the names of whole school:-))

Solitaire said...

@ Ankur,

It does not mean that he can keep blurting out his ex's name all the time thinking "I am very lucky".

Ek din mast chaata padega!

Stupidosaur said...

O
The stupid dinosaur thought* 'blurtung out' as in a sentence, conveying info, being honest and blah.
Now I think* you meant blurting it as interjection.



I think its better to take precations to avoid such an irreversible doomsday:
1) Nickname your current with names of all your exes (weird, but worth it if it works?)
2) Learn the art of conversation in bed, so nothing else blurts out
3) Play favourite background music and hope it went unnoticed.
4) Say I just hit upon the name of the heroine/hero of my next novel for whom I had taken inspiration from you. He/She will be pleasantly surprised to know you write, and falttered to be the inspiration.
5) Choose a statistician or mathematician or such significant other. So when it happens, wonder aloud what could be the probability of a random noise sounding just like what it sounded like. The other will get busy and I will be off the hook.
6) Kiss so often that there is not enough time for one complete word in between.

Do these stupidosaur techniques work for humans also? Do let me know.


*lie detector blares on...

Ankur said...

**Ek din mast chaata padega!

hahah... :D
seriously funny, i can really listen u sayin this... :D

waise u know agar tune ek baar bhi bhulaya(forgive) toh bahut hai n i dont think that someone will commit the mistake even once with u!!! :)

Cheers!!!

ishqia said...

yep dude.. even he dont have any ex..

gP said...

//@ Ghost,

OR maybe YOU have issues not being able to let go of the past...

lalalalalalala!//


this is a dead end, the only issue i would have for saying her name is shes better than the current. That is one issue any men can live with, however skewed it is.

AmitL said...

Hiroshima and Nagasakiwould seem quieter in comparison!!

♥ƐƅyƐяєƅŠ¼Ń”®♥ said...

and den I add..

Thank god! i left her for u :P

:P

other wise I m not the one to answer wat nex :P...and wen u will find me in the street searching fora shelter..u won't need to ask me that...

:P

btw u r looking beautiful in this pic..not flirting ...jus wanted to mention it... :)

Crimson Feet said...

@ keshi... lol... manolos!!... i'd rather wait a week more! ;)

btw.. i have done enough shoe shopping to know that my only contribution to the process is a pair of closed eyes, "Wow! those look grt on your lovely feet", and my credit card!

Nirmal said...

***She will be soooooo happy to know that you are thinking about a name for your pet (which may be nonexistent) while you are in bed with her.***

of course happier than to know i was thinking bout my ex....hehee

Nirmal said...

well actually its very tought to do that..

wonder how crimsonn managed to do so...lol

A Benevolent Sultan for Life said...

you sleep on the sofa for few weeks , eat some fast food and your thigh is sore and red with her pinches !! ,

seriously nothing more .

Vishesh said...

hmmm...say she looks better than her :P

Pavi!!!! said...

okies..im back...n no i didn't try it overnite!!!!!

i liked aneri's ans..the 2nd bit...so if i make the mistake..I'll be in complete denial n even call him weird for thinking of my ex at such a time!if he doesnt buy it imm, I'll start doing drama n say...I'm offended u were thinking of my ex whn u shld be thinking abt me! n then w/o making it obv will be nice to him for a week (to free myself off the guilt)!

If he does it..i hope he's smart enuf to deny it....I'll just sulk n move to the other corner of the bed for the nite. n then let him pamper me for the nxt 1 week or mth. ( Yes crimson Feet's reply is very temptin!)
n i KNOW this aint rite..but if therz any jagda in the future..I mite say "see u said ur ex's name and i let it go"

@Keshi: I agree with u. We are human n it can happen!

ceedy said...

Read thru all the answers...preety funny

things like this can happen so here are something I would worry about

- hope the couch is comfortable
- she is not attending anger management classes
- there are no sharp objects around the bed/vicinity
- you dont have an important meeting in the morning (lest she decides to slap you really tight leaving those visible marks)

Also this situation can get worse than a war....(war and agression can be diplomatically solved) but here once this is uttered and if forgiven - many furture converstations will dwell into "were you thinking of her" or "is she better at this too" realms....and this could also go other way around happening to a guy too

g-man said...

*insert name here* was the biggest mistake of my life. i wish i had met you sooner...

Aneesh said...

Just tell her that's your favourite name and you would like to call her that only in very special times.

Solitaire said...

@ Aneesh,

Do you think she is that dumb?

Solitaire said...

@ Vishesh,

"how dare you compare me with her?"

Then?

Solitaire said...

@ G-man,

"So why did you have to think of her NOW?"

Solitaire said...

@ Tyro,

Ohhhh..it can definitely get more serious than that....bruises, slap marks, bites, hahaha!

Solitaire said...

@ Ishqia,

Dude? I am no dude dude.

Ankur said...

waise yeh bata... yeh sawal kiske dimag ki upaj hai ;) :D

and exams khatam kya???
Cheers!!!

KP said...

RiĆ  said...

Gosh!thts like a big blunder. Let time pass coz matter wht excuse u give its not goin to matter!so jus keep shut....or try ur luck n say something witty like "He sucked in bed and i so hate him coz of tht"! :D

g-man said...

oh, i'm just thinkin how lucky i am to have you, and how dumb i was to ever fall for her...

Solitaire said...

@ G-man,

"You liar!!" **sobs**

Solitaire said...

@ Ria,

"WHAT? You went to bed with him?!!"

Solitaire said...

@ KP,

Hahah! And hope that she blurts out your name with her next bf right?

Solitaire said...

@ Chakoli,

You confident that the entire school was his ex?

Solitaire said...

@ Pavi,

HAhahahaahhahahahaah!!! I can so imagine you doing all that drama..
Poor guy. Hope this never happens!

Solitaire said...

@ G-man,

*sobs*
*sniffs*

Yeah...make that two please.

Hiren said...

Keshi.

Anonymous said...

next time speak up your partner s name with sweet mint tone, that shud make up

Solitaire said...

@ Sam,

If there is a next time!

Solitaire said...

@ Friendly Stranger,

You need a shrink!

Solitaire said...

@ Am in trance,

Yeah sure! she should know that you were fantasizing about your ex when in bed with her..

Good luck!

Solitaire said...

@ Nitin,

Hahah!! Don't be so sure. Chhod ke chali jaayegi toh? Pocket will then become heavier. No one to spend money on.

Solitaire said...

@ Hiren,

Hahaha!! Hope she has a good sense of humor!

Keshi said...

now thats v smart Hiren!

Keshi.

Chakoli said...

not confident ...but for fun u cud...if he s ready to atke names like phoolan devi;-))

Ankur said...

@Keshi

did read ur response... and agreed that we are humans...

still i think such mistakes are made rarely coz our unconscious mind still works!!! :)

Cheers!!!

humbl devil said...

DUH sol!!!
ur exams are getting to ya...
what i implied was what you replied!!!
:D

Solitaire said...

@ Stupidosaur,

Hahah! I have a friend who is now engaged to a guy who shares his name with her ex. I guess she is not going to have any problems of this sort.

The last option is a great option!!

As for that writing part, I am sure once that is uttered, you will have to produce an award winning book...all because of that one second blunder!

So dinosaurs do this huh?

Solitaire said...

@ Amit,

Then might as well wear earphones and go to sleep.

Solitaire said...

@ Ceedy,

So you don't talk to her about it and just stealth out and sleep on the couch?

Solitaire said...

@ Daydreamer,

Thanks!!

I hope that its your home and not hers when this happens. That way at least you wont be on the streets!

Satish Bolla said...

simple. after blurting out her name, i would simply add "dear, believe me, she never gave me this awesome pleasure. i feel like a real man in ur company".

Aneesh said...

@sol
It depends on how you present it, right?

ceedy said...

Jo nahi bolna tha woh bol gaye phir aur kuch bol ke aapni kabar kyu dig kare!

Nitin said...

--Sol :

Jaane ke liya pehle aana padta hein.. pehle aa to jaye..phir mein sambhal loonga..

Solitaire said...

@ Ceedy,

Sahi bidu..good luck if that happens.

Solitaire said...

@ Nitin,

I like your confidence!

Solitaire said...

@ Satish,

Hehehehehehheheheh!!!

gypsy said...

"he was never so good...u are so much better...."

RiĆ  said...

OMG!tht was another blunder.....so its best to keep shut or simply vanish like a character of Harry Potter! :D

Macadamia The Nut said...

Immediately add "Look what you're missing! Hah!"

Stupidosaur said...

//So dinosaurs do this huh?

Nope not all dinosaurs.
Those who didn't pften broke up and became extinct.

Stupidosaurs did it and survived.


By the way why do my McD comments have this strange tendency to disappear and reappear?

Shruti said...

dont stop.. continue, make a sentence or a story that begins with the ex's name ;)
