cincinnatikid Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 To give you some perspective, here is my OP: http://www.loveshack.org/forums/breaking-up-reconciliation-coping/breaks-breaking-up/313549-ive-been-ls-listener-now-im-talker In any case, about two weeks ago I saw her walking her dog with some new guy while I was out to dinner with some friends downtown. I do not believe she saw me since we were on opposite sides of the street. I admit, it was an ego blow because, while I'm no Brad Pitt, I consider myself to be a fairly attractive guy and this dude looked like a Jack Sprat from the short story and very nerdy. Thought nothing of it. Frankly, I have a suspicion that she is going through G.I.G.S. herself, which I don't blame her for. While a young 26, and successful in her endeavors, I have no doubt she hasn't a clue what she wants. How could I blame her, I'm 28 and still figuring it out?!?! So tonight as I was walking downtown to meet with a few friends I bumped into her this time with her dog. We chatted for a few minutes, she introduced me to her dog and asked me how I was doing. I had a big smile on my face and told her I was doing great and parted ways. The attraction for me definitely has not waned. I also happened to notice she was wearing a shirt of mine which was interesting as I had boxed up all her old clothes, dresses, etc. she had left behind and gave them back to her (she had said she would send all of mine back too but never did). Coupled with the fact that just a few days ago I happened to notice she unblocked me from the good ol' Facebook after our breakup, it gave me pause for someone reason. Granted I have no intention of reaching out to her. I've greatly realized the fact that if she wants to reach out to me she knows where to find me. It was just so interesting to bump into someone who've you loved so deeply for so long, realizing the attraction is still quite palpable but still knowing its best to leave it alone (for a good while at that). Yet, I was pleasantly surprised as to how easy it was for me. Your thoughts, opinions, general comments would be great but this was just for me to get out. Best to all of you LS'ers
blindesided Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 Your post gives us all hope that we too can get to that place. For a lot of us it is still so new and raw - its nice to hold onto the idea that things will ge better even though its hard to see right now
budley12 Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 thanks for posting this. It too gave me hope that one day my ex and I will get back. or even being capable of being civil and talk. Its so hard losing the person who meant the world to you.
