Nivasi Posted December 24, 2010 Posted December 24, 2010 I'm over him. When he called 4 nights ago, drunk, telling me how much he missed me, still loved me, but Oh, his new GF is "Great"....I didn't want him back. Since I have to work Christmas Day, there was no point in making the long drive home. Both my roommates are gone. The house is empty, without decoration or even a pumpkin pie. All of my friends are out of town. Seriously, I thought it wouldn't bother me to be alone. Less stress, I told myself. Less expense buying food, decorations, gifts. The holidays are too commercialized and consumer driven anyway, and people are stupid for Buying into the hype. But I was wrong. This Really, Truly Sucks *lol* Here's to all of us who are Alone this Christmas Eve. May the New Year bring new connections, joy and Happiness

I agree, Christmas is too commercialized. Nothing says Merry Christmas quite like crisp 20 and 50 dollar bills. Enjoy your holidays and cheers to the New Year.
vandelay Posted December 24, 2010 Posted December 24, 2010 Well I'm going to a bar tonight and getting tipsy. Thankfully there is a show tonight, so there should be some people there. I figure it might be a regular lonely hearts club on Xmas eve, but honestly I expect and hope for some serious crowd energy tonight. We shall see... I'm heading out shortly to buy a new shirt for the excursion.
AZGarnethawk Posted December 24, 2010 Posted December 24, 2010 Have fun out tonight! Sometimes being alone is way better than being near certain people.
Banega100 Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 the bird i was seeing has gone abroad for christmas. But even if she didn't exist i wouldnt feel alone. Ive been drinking with friends and being acting like a fool for a good few days now. Doesn't matter whether you're in the company of a partner or not, you're still the same person. But yeah, friends help i guess...
DSM2709 Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 Well, I might as well climb on board the "Lonely at Xmas" train. My ex broke up with me in June and I moved out in July, still to this day, I miss her like crazy. We went out last Friday night, and had a good time together. Even though she rejected my offer to stay the night and get breakfast in the morning together, I thought I would hear from her later this week. I haven't. I received her Christmas card the other day, but in it was a general greeting that she would write anyone, nothing was personalized. I called her and left a message on her phone to say thanks and maybe we could speak before Christmas, she never returned my call. So today, if I don't hear from her I will take that as a sign that she wants to move on without me for good. During our 8 month relationship together, things were great, up until I moved in with her. I moved in with her in May and she broke up with me in late June. When we lived together, I felt as if I was walking on eggshells with her. She was very controlling and very critical of things I did or said, and I guess I didn't speak up to her, but if I did she would come right back and set things to her ways. Alot of my friends and family have asked me why would I want to be with someone like that. I realize the first mistake I made was moving in with her so quickly. Maybe things would be different today had I waited. I guess I will never know. So am I pathetic for feeling like crap and missing her?, or is it just the nature of being alone at Christmas that makes it feel 100 times worse? She said to me last Friday night that breaking up with me was the hardest thing she had to do, yet what she doesn't understand is that it was equally just as hard for me to accept the break up and move on. She says I'm a great person and that we were just different people and on different levels. I respect her feelings and I told her that. So, what do I do if she texts me or calls me today to wish me a Merry Christmas? Do I answer, and if yes what should I say? How long should I wait to reply? Or am I just getting my hopes up? I know I will be ok and I'm sure all of you out there on this train will too. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone!!
make me feel better Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 i feel alone. i'm going to get alot of sleep. i will be thinking "is she missing me at all?, does she realize this will be the first christmas without me in several years? who is she shopping for? is she shopping just to make herself feel better about not having me around or cuz shes forgotten all about me and enjoying herself". i don't want to think too much. i just want to relax. hopefully next year will be a great year.
