I was doing good with NC for a few days. Then I had a lapse of judgement and messed that up yesterday.

 

After work I made a stop by my sisters house. My nephew was in the pool and he finally learned how to swim. My ex had been trying for weeks to teach him how to swim. He was really excited and kept telling me to call her and tell her that he knew how to swim. I said I'd do it later but he insisted. I told him i'd send her a text. Instead of just acting like I sent it, I actually did send her a text. It was a dumb thing to do, and I wish I hadn't.

 

I told her about my nephew and she was happy. Then she sent me a text that said "by the way my car sucks. i had to take the train home and leave it at work".

 

All night last night I felt so down. A few weeks ago she would have called me to give her a ride home. I would have been the first person she called. Now she was just catching the train home, and she was taking care of it on her own. She doesn't need my help anymore. She's moving on.

 

I know she's gonna move on and so am I. It just felt weird. Even something so small makes me realize just how much things have changed in the last few weeks. Lesson learned...think things out first before you decide to break no contact.
