“Her birthday night. That was dramatic. All I remember is that she expressed wanting more from me, and I was like: All right, let’s try it. You want to be my girlfriend? I was half-joking, if I’m being honest”
Illustration: Jeni Zhen In “Both Sides of a Breakup,” the Cut talks to exes about how they got together and why they split up. Ivy, 37, and Trevor, 42, work together at a production company, which is where everything in their relationship began and ended.
Ivy: I got the job, which is as senior as his job is, and set my eyes on him. I did not care he had a girlfriend. I heard she was a lobbyist or something and I was like, “Whatever! Boring!” That man was to be mine. I had a few long-term relationships before all this with Trevor. Both guys broke my heart, but in hindsight both guys weren’t worth my value. Trevor was a higher-caliber person than my exes. No matter what happened between us, that much is true.
Trevor: I wouldn’t call it a date, but the first night we hung out with me as a single man, we had a lot of fun. A lot of fun. Ivy: I turned 35. I made reservations at my favorite restaurant for me and Trevor. I sent him a link to a necklace I wanted for my birthday. I invited friends to join us for drinks. And suddenly I opened my damn eyes. I was like — What the hell? Why am I planning all this for myself? I felt pathetic. Later that night at the dinner, I told Trevor that whatever we had was going to have to end.
Trevor: The next few days were weird. Ivy was hanging around me at work even more, if you can believe it. In my office, and if not at work, every second she’d be texting or calling. It was very intense. It was a little trippy to see how one romantic conversation could turn into a full-blown relationship. I guess I didn’t realize how meaningful my words were at her birthday dinner.
Ivy: Trevor was legit the worst boyfriend ever. I dumped his ass after a month because he just sucked at being in a relationship and it wasn’t going anywhere. He was not present, not anything. We had sex less when we were dating than when we were just hooking up! I walked into his office one day and said, “It’s over. You blew it. Your loss.”
