Surfer Girl Posted September 5, 2009 Posted September 5, 2009 He sponsors a charity event... that we used to attend to every year.... I debated on going.... but this charity means alot to me... I have been attending it since 1980.... and it represents a disease I have been in remission from.... I am so glad I went as I saw the organizer of the event and gave him a big hug..... he was glad I was there. Ex was under a tree talking on the phone.... I had no idea I was going to walk right past him.... We both waved and I left.... I did not want to talk to him.... and was just glad I saw the organizer before I saw ex so I felt I could leave at that point.... I could have lingered and maybe had a chat.... hard enough seeing him, I sure did not want to revert back to square one..... I held my head high and just cruised right past him.... Guess I just had to vent....
Serena2009 Posted September 5, 2009 Posted September 5, 2009 Well Done Surfer Girl!! You kpet your head high and your dignity intact!! I'm sure it was difficult to see him there.
kizik Posted September 5, 2009 Posted September 5, 2009 Heya, good job on avoiding the stop-and-chat. I've run into my ex a few times since the breakup (over a year ago), but never talked to her. But I did see her new BF - what a winner! Be glad that didn't happen to you. A kick in the nuts if there ever was one. You done good, kiddo.
Author Surfer Girl Posted September 5, 2009 Author Posted September 5, 2009 Yes, Kizik.... I will say I was glad he was alone... I can't imagine seeing him with someone new.... that is the chance I took... It did make me feel a little better not seeing him with someone... I am in no position to have another relationship.... he has never seen me with someone else... and sometimes I have that desire to just want him to see me with someone... I did see him with someone else once, which was short lived, but still hurt... and I know how that feels.... Sometimes I just want him to know what he lost!!!!
xpaperxcutx Posted September 5, 2009 Posted September 5, 2009 Despite the animosity you still have towards your ex, I'm very proud of how you handled your situation. Most people would have avoided going altogether or just left immediately have left, but I'm glad you managed to held your head high and still be friendly with him.
