happythroughout Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 My ex isn't the most successful person on earth but I believed he would succeed after he finishes his grad school because he's hardworking. Now I feel that I'm going to miss out on his success and everything that I believed in him for. His girlfriend will benefit from all those. Don't get me wrong. I wasn't with him because I wanted him for his money or anything like that. But I feel I won't get to share his success and joy of it. Am I going loony? Link to post Share on other sites
fresh8 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I have similar feelings as you right now. I have been broken up with my girlfriend for 4 weeks. We last spoke 6 days ago to say we could not be friends right now. Days prior, I got offered (and I accepted) my dream job to work with our State's Criminal Prosecution Department. She knew how much I wanted the job and called me up when she found out I got it. She sounded very very happy. Right now, I often think about how I wish she could share my experience with me at this new job. I start tomorrow and I wish she would call and say good luck and have fun on the first day and I could call her after work and tell her how it went. And I wish I could tell her about the first case I work on and the first case I lose and the first case I win. I'm not sure if she's feeling what you are feeling (i.e. wanting/wishing to share this experience with me) but I know that I am. I don't think you're going loony... it's normal I guess?

Congratulations. The other part of what you said that I left out is also true. There are things I want to share with my ex too but I can't now. I miss how I used to talk to him about things.

I'm telling myself all of this too. Everything happens for a reason. It's funny because if me and my ex were still together, I would not have gone for this job. However, since she is out of my life, I was able to take the job and still be able to finish my degree at uni. So yeah, everything happens for a reason is true! Just try not to think about it too much. Link to post Share on other sites

NoEnd_Mary Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 What pisses me off is that I helped him grow into a man and now all these b$tches get to enjoy it? I don't think so! Link to post Share on other sites
