She would be an ex girlfriend. Max's secret is i sabotage each relationship i get myself into, because i am afraid i'll get bored with love, when sleeping around is too exciting. I wanted them to have dated about 6-8 months, and he actually tried, but he eventually ended up fucking it all up. She would be the one girl that he actually tried to make it work with, and she would always be "the one who got away" and the one he wondered if she would ever give another chance. We can work out specifics on how he fucked it up. I was leaving that open to brainstorm with the other person, but I would like it to have been at least semi-recently. Maybe less then a year since they've broken up.
