Tasha1675 Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 Hey everyone, just wanted to share something... My ex and I haven't talked since he ended our relationship and it's about 3 & 1/2 months since the break up. He contacted a friend of mine a few weeks ago telling her that he knew he had to let me get on with my own life but he wanted to know if I was OK and he said he still loves me. He may have hoped that I would contact him upon hearing this but I did not. If he ever wants to talk to me, he knows where I am Anyway, today I went to the hairdressers near where I live and got a nice new hair cut, and whilst I was there, who should sit down near to me but his Mum! It was so random! I haven't seen her since I returned some of his things to her place about a week after the break up so it was a bit of a shock. It's weird, I felt all shakey and my heart raced, even though it was just his Mum. I just wanted to say that I did really well, I went over to her and said hi. She was really surprised to see me too, and asked how I am. I was really cool, smiled loads and said I was fine and doing well. She said I looked really good (my hair certainly did!) and I just said it was lovely to see her and left. Despite feeling shakey, I think I did really good and I am pretty sure she will tell my ex when she next calls him that she saw me and that I looked good so I am glad I bumped into her. I am really proud of myself for keeping it together and smiling lots! It's funny how things like that happen sometimes isn't it
Morgued Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 Kudos kiddo! Keep it up, you sound like you've come a long way!
sunrae Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 Yay! Good job, keep it up.... You should be proud of yourself, sometimes it's not that easy.. Way to go..
Dark_of_the_Moon Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 Excellent! Exactly what you should have done and reacted, Yes, be proud of yourself!! Go YOU!!!!
Author Tasha1675 Posted February 2, 2010 Author Posted February 2, 2010 Thank you everyone! It's so good to feel positive :)
Ilovecake Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 That's awesome. I love reading these stories; it’s so refreshing after all the whiney stuff. You are a very strong and smart lady for keeping your cool. It would be incredibly difficult for most people in that situation. You're an inspiration to a lot of people here. You just know he's kicking himself in the butt right now.
Author Tasha1675 Posted February 2, 2010 Author Posted February 2, 2010 Thanks Ilovecake! I do feel really strong and I think I have come a long way since the break up. Last time his Mum saw me I was crying and everything so I am so happy at how I handled the situation today and at how I appeared to her. I still have a way to go but I feel like I am getting there I hope he is kicking himself! hehe!
Author Tasha1675 Posted February 2, 2010 Author Posted February 2, 2010 So, his Mum just sent me a text message saying how good it was to see me today looking so well and lovely! She thanked me for saying hello and said it was so good to see me looking so much better than the last time she saw me (when I was crying and looking very bad!). I hope she tells him how great I looked
Author Tasha1675 Posted February 4, 2010 Author Posted February 4, 2010 What do you think about this - I am very pleased with how I handled seeing his Mum. However, I actually spoke to one of my ex's friends who is my friend too on the phone last night (I was a bit drunk). I talked about how great my life is now and even mentioned that I am dating again! The dating part isn't strictly true as I don't feel ready for that yet but I figured if that information were to get back to my ex, it wouldn't be a bad thing! It's better for my ex to think I am really happy and having a great time, rather than wallowing in misery, don't you think?! I kind of wish I hadn't said anything but surely it doesn't matter anyway, does it??
