stace79 Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 Okay, so I'm on day two of NC (again). I've done really well....been actively trying to avoid thinking about the ex and stuff. He is going to try and work things out with HIS ex, which is why I know I just can't talk to him anymore. I know I don't want to be around if/when they get back together, I don't want to know if she's staying with him or if he's visiting her, blah blah. Anyway, he IMed me today, called and left a VM and sent me an e-mail. It's realllllllly hard not to talk to him today, because we are both huge Florida Gators fans and he called to tell me he heard our basketball coach isn't leaving our school for another job. I really want to talk to him about it, and I honestly do appreciate calling to give me the "inside scoop." That was our thing...how we both love sports so much. Anyway, please someone say something to remind me why I can't talk to him. I know I can't, I just need some back up here. Thanks.
cecil brown Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 Because he's trying to get back together with his ex. How will talking to him with that in the back of your mind help you move forward?
Author stace79 Posted April 5, 2007 Author Posted April 5, 2007 It won't help me move forward, which is why I can't talk to him. It's just that at the moment there are a few things he would normally be the first person I'd call about.... Posting on here helps distract me for a few minutes at least and get over the "hump" so to speak. Thank you. Because he's trying to get back together with his ex. How will talking to him with that in the back of your mind help you move forward?

I'd hard pressed to walk through WalMart and find someone who ISN'T a LSU Tigers fan in my neck of the woods. I could close my eyes, throw a rock, and hit a tree, and that tree would probably be a Tiger fan. Even the ground bleeds purple and gold here.
Author stace79 Posted April 5, 2007 Author Posted April 5, 2007 I did call my dad....he loves sports, too, and I knew he wouldn't know the news yet because he hardly ever goes on the Internet. It helped a little. I do have several very good reasons NOT to call the ex, but it seems weird with him, in that there is always another reason that would make me want to call him, ya know? I never had that problem with exes before...I guess because most of my exes really are jerks and I never really was in love with them or shared these types of things with them. I'm just fighting it as long as I can until I get over it. Thanks. =) Isn't there anyone else who shares your sports passion?
