Should I Stay or Should I Go?

[CP3WOO]

Ok...Me and my ex are still really good friends. We decided to get each other gifts for Christmas. I got her some clothes and her favorite movie on Blue Ray (Step Brothers). Well...I thought I got her an awesome gift, but she topped my gift and got me courtside Hornets tickets to see them play the Blazers (probably my 2nd favorite team behind the Hornets). I spent about $250 on her...Courtside seats to see the New Orleans Hornets isn't cheap guys. She got me 2 tickets and said "take whoever you want"...Should I take her? I mean, we're still good friends. However, the girl I'm talking to now will most likely get pissed. She already got mad that I spent $250 on her. She doesn't know about the tickets yet.

So who do I chose...

(A) My ex -
She gave me the tickets
Likes the Hornets
We're pretty much best friends

(B) Current girl I'm talking to who will most likely end up being my girlfriend -
I love being with her
Really doesn't like the NBA
Sex is amazing

(C) My best bro -
My partner in crime
LOVES the Hornets like me
I can actually talk sports with him

So far, I'm leading toward my ex...

What should I do?

It sounds like your relationship with your ex is already putting a strain on your relationship. Let's pretend it's like an equation or something:

Relationship with ex: 5 points strong (out of 10).
Relationship with current gf: 8 points strong (out of 10, -2 because of strain).

You:
Take out your ex, and your gf finds out.
Resulting in:
+2 points with your ex (total: 7)
-4 points with your gf (total: 4).

You:
Take out your ex, and your gf doesn't find out.
Resulting in:
+2 points with your ex (total: 7)
+0 points with your gf (total: 8).
(but you lied).

You:
Take out your gf, slighting your ex.
Resulting in:
-3 points with your ex (total: 2)
-1 points with your gf (total: 8).
(your girlfriend doesn't like basketball OR where the tix came from)

You:
Take out your bro, slighting your ex.
Resulting in:
-2 points with your ex (total: 3)
+0 points with your gf (total: 8).

First of all, why are you spending $200 some dollars on your ex for christmas? I wouldn't even spend that much on my GIRLFRIEND!

Also, I question how you two broke up in the first place. Did she offer than false branch of friendship which you accepted? Although it is pretty nice of her to buy you those tickets.

Go with your bro.

Are you being a player? You keep your ex around because you enjoy the attention and you know it helps keep your current girl in check. She feels like you might have one foot out the door at any moment and she's probably acting really nice trying to keep you. You know what you are doing. But you are slipping up by letting the ex be to prominent in your game. It should be hinted at, not overt. Take your bro, don't go on a date with your ex. Play on player.
