A recent discussion that I was reading on here got me to thinking about old friends that you no longer communicate with because of a falling out in opinion or otherwise, and the phone numbers that they have. Do you keep phone numbers, either mentally or written down, of friends that you no longer talk to or do you try to forget them, or throw them away? I know that I still have their numbers in my head, and I have not tried to forget them but I know that they are numbers that I will not call again. Trying to forget the numbers would be like, at least in my own humble opinion, allowing them to be part of my thoughts.
What is your take on this? Would you keep the numbers, or throw them away?

That is a very good question my friend and I agree that in some ways that trying to forget their numbers is like thinking about them,and if I had old friends that I did not communicate with,and I did not need their numbers anyone I would write them down, set them on fire,and then dance on their ashes while laughing maniacally even though I know that sounds a little insane,I love you.

Okay I forgive you and you know I love you! Well I know Rickey distracts you and I know how you feel about the phone numbers and all and I can't say that I would blame you for doing that. It doesn't sound sadistic, it sounds like your letting go of people who hurt you! I love you with all of my heart and soul! I appreciate the response to me baby, Happy Mylotting!

well why keep a number when there was a falling out? doesn't it just mean you are using up more memory on your phone then you should be? if there was a serious falling out between a friend and I (like we fought or something) then i wouldn't keep the number on my phone or in my head. the only numbers i keep in my head are important ones. and well if i had a really good friend/girlfriend and we stopped talking and it upset me, then maybe i would remember the number in my head for a while. but arent' you bound to forget it, with time, and since you don't use it anymore?

Very true that a number that isn't being used is usually forgotten, and I have at times forgotten these friend's numbers but remembered when I did actually call them. I know that it's really kind of silly to be keeping numbers you have no intentions of calling, and using up memory in the phone isn't a problem, but it is kind of strange to see people's numbers you don't want to call for whatever reason. I appreciate the response and am glad you responded. I hope you have a wonderful and equally as lovely day.
