I could understand Greg's frustration with Kevin

I could understand his feelings of inadequacy. My now ex boyfriend, had an ex wife with whom his parents are still very close with. Granted, they had grown children together, but I always felt shoved to the side by their ongoing affection for the woman, and I was treated as less than human at times. One of the reasons we are no longer together is because of his family.

And like Kevin, my boyfriend's ex still also had unresolved feelings and issues with him, and would call at least once a week just to talk.

Yah, he was obviously very successful and even though some things felt unintentional I'm sure given Greg's already shady relationship with the Dad he felt a little angst.

Honestly the only thing that would've crept me out a little was still having the pictures of Pam and him in the house. Like WTF? Dunno about the rest of you but I'd never keep a picture of my ex-girlfriend FRAMED in my place.

I've broken it off with one girl and we remain 'friends' if you will to this day. Still hang out (with other friends), still talk sometimes, met some of her boyfriends (parties), and she's met some of my girlfriends, etc. Just broke off and maintained as two very mature people. That's a HUGE rarity since every other girl I've never talked to again lol, but still. It can happen. I now live in a different state and we never really talk anymore, but while we lived nearby we used to hang out as friends, sometimes even double dating.

THAT said, I never kept pictures of her around FRAMED just the two of us. I'd have some pictures of a group of us or something but usually just on my phone or computer lol.
