Gt.ooh Posted November 21, 2010 Posted November 21, 2010 Well what else can I say? My ex is in town having dinner with her family...do I care? NOPE. I had a date today, had sushi for the first time in months, it went really well.. she's a good catch. More dates are in order... I've realized something....boy did it take a lot of pain, heartache, and just plain idiocy when I look back now to see how dumb this has been. I feel great! Can't wait for another date, I was confident, no bad stomache feelings...my dog performed excellent at the dog park (listened to me completely), date went well, and now going to a hockey game with a buddy.. let the good times begin. I do still have this weird feeling in my stomache...just a hunch gut feeling that something is going to happen in the not so distant future (with the ex)...like some sort of contact...or reach out of some sort. By no means do I count on it. Just a weird feeling..I also had a dream of the ex for the first time since I broke up (3 months) that we were getting back together...it didn't bother me to much but this is where that feeling is happening... So not to be a downer on the rest of the day...I'm still kicking some @$$ now, and I am looking forward to each day that I face. Cheers!
Username37 Posted November 21, 2010 Posted November 21, 2010 Dude, I'm so happy for you. I've been having good days too. The ex pops up once in a while, but it's not killing me. You know what, this is for you http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8CPlF-IEkXQ Good driving song haha
Ajax Posted November 21, 2010 Posted November 21, 2010 I think we need to hear more about this sushi date, and of course the girl. I've also got a blind date tomorrow. I'm looking forward to it. I like sushi too, so if things go well and she's up for it maybe I'll get some one of these nights myself.
Author Gt.ooh Posted November 21, 2010 Author Posted November 21, 2010 (edited) Well, she was cute. Very bubbly, and we had a few things in common...liked the same sushi too... BTW that song was halarious...it was like my day lmao. Edited November 21, 2010 by Gt.ooh
thatsonlyme Posted November 21, 2010 Posted November 21, 2010 I'm glad to see more and more people on this board moving on with their lives. We need more threads like this to help newly broken members realize that things WILL get better! I'm doing great myself, I don't need my ex to be happy and I have a feeling that my life will be way better without her. I just need to start dating again, that's a tough one for me, but I'll eventually get there. I neglected my social life because of my ex and I know it will take some time to repair the damage but I'm up for the challenge.
Author Gt.ooh Posted November 22, 2010 Author Posted November 22, 2010 Thatsonly....I agree. There's so many fresh dumpees now, the message must get across to them as soon as possible so they don't have to follow in our footsteps..everyone takes their own time, but the sooner they hear it gets better over and over, the better.
Ajax Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 Had my own first date tonight since my breakup. Definately some attraction between us. We're planning to get together again Tuesday but I haven't figured out what we'll do yet. I had some trouble breaking the contact barrier. There was no real point in the conversation that seemed appropriate, so I have her a hug when I dropped her off. We'll see how things go from here. Obviously at this point it's my first date after a really painful breakup, so I'm not going to rush into it or place too much importance in it right yet. I'll probably keep my options open too. But it was a fun night with a cute girl and I'm looking forward to seeing her again.

Now it's new feelings all over again in a sense...when do you give the first kiss, and how much of yourself do you put out there since we're on stable but not concrete ground just yet. I think a few dates and if it's still going well go for the kiss . I'm glad we can keep each other posted.. I followed your break-up and your progress for at least a month/1.5 months...and I think it's pretty cool we've gone on our first dates almost the exact same time lol. Take it easy.
heartbrokengal Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 Well thanks so much for sharing your progress. It's nice to read such a positive thread
