Some of you my know my situation and how upset I was over the breakup with my ex gf. I had gone 3 weeks nc and then week 4 came and I felt so dam miserable because of a email she had sent me which brought back those moments in my life with her that I had tried so hard to forget. Then just a few days ago I started talking to an old friend of mine who I hadn't seen in 2 years. We would message each other here and there but not much more than that since she had a bf and I had my ex gf. Well two weeks ago she had ended things with her ex because he apparently did what my gf did to me last year...cheated! She was devastated and I did what good friend would do and comfort her through phone or text. Sunday she calls me asking me if I had an air compressor for one of her car's tires which had got a flat. I told her yes so later that night I went over to her place which made me feel nervous since it had been 2 years of not seeing each other. I had always liked her but like I said, either she was taken or I was. When I got there, I was like wow!..she was as beautiful as ever. We hit if off and went to get a bite right after I fixed her flap. Over dinner,she just kept telling me about how right it felt meeting up with me and how much happier she felt. This made me extremely happy because I felt the same way. A little later I took her home and gave each other a big hug. Since then she has sent me messages with "hey love" or "hey babe". I'm just taking it with a grain of salt but it does feel good seeing that again from a girl you really like. Today we met up again for lunch and asked me If I wanted to help her wash her car. I was thinking soap, water, fun! so I said yes and that's exactly what happened lol I know its only been 3 days since seeing her again after not doing so for 2 years but It's made me realize that there really could be someone better out there for myself, and for everyone else that's on here. I don't know if this is going anywhere but it sure as hell made me not think of my ex for 3 days. People are afraid to meet someone new because they think they might get hurt again or because they still believe there ex will come back. Life is about risks and I took a shot at it and so far so good. Even if it doesn't work out with this girl at least I know that there are other people out there. Just a month ago I didn't think I would be doing this. The less we try, the more suffering and pain we will endure. To everyone, just go out and meet as many people as you can..you could end up meeting that one person who you thought could never replace your ex.
