Take Him, Please

AS SEEN IN TODAY'S METRO:

Tonight the District Lounge in Boston is hosting a Yankee Swap Your Ex Party for split-up couples. If you have an ex who you're still friends with, you can go together and hopefully swap each other out for other people's exes.

The wonderful audacity of this amuses me greatly. I have an ex who I'm still friends with, but unfortunately he's neither local nor available. Too bad -- this would be jolly fun, in a vaguely just-shoot-me kind of way.

Hm... this makes me wonder: what quantity is measured by the percentage of one's exes who are currently happily attached? :)

That's a good question. In my case, I've short-term dated several people who married the very next person they dated after me. It can give a girl a complex! But I'm happy for them.
