Hey all, haven't been her in about a week. For those who can't remember, a week ago I found out my ex cheated on me whilst we were dating. I said then, that it hit me hard but that it would of hit me a lot harder had I found out sooner.

 

Well, this past week I've been coping surprisingly well, I have kept myself to myself a lot, stayed in and done whatever I've wanted and felt a lot better for it.

 

Knowing my luck though, it couldn't last long as I find out my ex is now having something of a 'fling' with this new guy. The bad thing about that being that he used to work in the same office as me and he's a total jackass. Really, the most obnoxious person you could meet.

 

But I found that I'm not too bothered about it all. When i first found out, it hurt, but like I said before this is the kind of news which would of sent me over the edge before but now it's effect is noticeable yes, but not huge.

 

What I'm trying to say is, slowly, very slowly, I'm beginning to finally accept that it's over between us - something I was struggling to come to terms with a couple of months ago. So to everyone who is in the early stages of a break up and may be finding it hard to accept the loss of their partner, keep on hanging in there, it DOES get better - whilst I'm not totally healed yet I can notice the improvement and it brings to mind the old expression 'What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger'.
