AMM003 Posted April 12, 2010 Posted April 12, 2010 Here's my situation: It's was raining here in Norcal this morning. As I was getting my kids ready for school, I looked all over my house for my boots. I couldn't find them and as I was driving my kids to school, I re-traced when I last wore them. I realized that I left them at my ex's house. This was NO way done on purpose. I have been NC for a few weeks now. The exception she texted once and I rsponded once. And done pretty well with it overall. I don't want to see here as I know what it'll do to my head. But I also want my 200.00 Red Wings back. This is where my story started so please don't get on my case for not posting to the right board. So either I break down and text her that I need my my boots back. And I guess I can then toss my pride in the trash shortly afterwards. Or I can chalk it up as a loss. Save my pride and fork over another couple hundred dollars for a new pair. Is there a way to get em back without putting my pride on the line? What would you do or have done if in my situation? Please remember, it was not done on purpose. I really thought I got all my stuff from her house before we started our "break".
Bejita463 Posted April 12, 2010 Posted April 12, 2010 Pride? What the crap does this have to do with pride? Just text the woman and ask if your boots are still at her place because you think you left them there.
eraser Posted April 12, 2010 Posted April 12, 2010 Do you not have a mutual friend that came pick them up for you? You can also ask her to drop them off on your doorstep one day so that no contact between you is necessary.
Author AMM003 Posted April 18, 2010 Author Posted April 18, 2010 (edited) I broke NC and texted: Me: "Hey, I can't seem to find a pair of my boots. I may have left them at your house. Lemme know if you run across them. Thanks. Then she writes in the evening. About the time we would normally talk. Her: "Sorry no boots here. Hope all is well with you." and she also writes abit of what is going on with her and that she is sad. Then I texted her about 2:00 in the morning as I was out that night. Me: "K. Thanks for looking." And I wrote abit that I was glad things were working out for her" I didn't tell her how I was doing or what I was doing. And of course, didn't allude to/write any feelings(sadness, anger, etc.) I had about her. It was short and to the point. So I go about moving forward again. It certainly did screw with my head just to "hear" from her. All kinds of crap ran thru my head. From what time she wrote me back to this and that. I even thought I was feeling pretty strong beforehand. Let that be another testimonial for COMPLETE NC when the time comes to leave your SO if they have been unfaithful. I rolled into the house at 3ish in the morning. Took my dog out back and on my way back in, I happened to catch a glimpse of the front of my boots in the corner of the garage. Lol. There they were, the whole F'ing time. Edited April 18, 2010 by AMM003 left out pertinent word
