conversations with an internet date...

'so why did you and your ex split up'
'oh you know the usual reason - artistic differences'
'really?'
'yeah I wanted to keep the band together but he wanted to pursue a solo career'
'so did he make a go of it on his own?'
'no not really he had a couple of hits but then sank without trace - he keeps wanting us to re form but I can't say as I'm keen. Don't really want to go back to all the late nights, drugs, alcohol and groupies......'
'sounds like fun'
'It's an ok place to visit but trust me you wouldn't want to live there.......'
