Heartbreak from Iraq

Dear Bitter Single Guy: Last year I broke up with a girl who I think is the best thing that has ever happened to me. It was an "I need to experience life" break up. We stayed good friends but then I had to leave for a little tour in Iraq. She bounced around with a few guys but has now said she has found her absolute perfect match. My question is, should I keep up a hope that things between us can be rekindled or should I just let it go and move on? -- Bitter in Iraq

Dear B.I.I.: The Bitter Single Guy is elated to reply to a letter from one of our faithful soldiers in Faraway Iraq! But that's all the good stuff you get, B.I.I. The B.S.G. reads here that YOU broke up with HER, so he can't feel too sympathetic for you. If you dumped this lovely lass because you were lacking in life experience, the B.S.G. can't blame her for "bouncing around" before settling on Mr. Perfect Match. The B.S.G. is amazed at how often love (or whatever) is re-kindled within old relationships, so he'll say you have as good a shot at re-kindling the fire as anyone, but the B.S.G. wouldn't bank on it, B.I.I. Hopefully your ruddy Iraqi tan and the cut of your desert fatigues will attract someone new and you can move on. - B.S.G.
