We construct a class of Gorenstein local rings $R$ which admit
minimal complete $R$-free resolutions $\bd C$ such that
the sequence $\{\rank_R C_i\}$ is constant for $i< 0$,
and grows exponentially for all $i>0$. Over these rings
we show that there exist finitely generated $R$-modules $M$ and $N$
such that $\Ext^i_R(M,N)=0$ for all $i> 0$, but $\Ext^i_R(N,M)\ne 0$
for all $i>0$.
