enitsuj90 Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 Here in Manila classes usually starts on June, I'm doing med school and I'm in my first year. I heard that you should sacrifice most of your social life. And most of my friends are already working, they suggested to have an out of town 3 day vacation before we have busy lives. My ex and I have common friends, and I mean really close tight friendship. Just this May, she had a new girlfriend, which she (my ex is a girl) is bringing on the vacation. I try so hard to be strong whenever people ask me, because I'm trying to move on. Some days I'm fine, but I'm really scared to see them on this vacation. There's hurt still, and I'm scared that this emotion would ruin my vacation. I backed out at somepoint but my friends kept pushing me to come, saying that if I'm not there their lazy to go too. So should i go or should I just pretend that everything's fine?
BustedUpInside Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 If you think that you can pretend and still have a good time, then I definitely think you should go. Not only to prove to yourself that you don't need her anymore and can move on with your life, but also because you really are going to be going through a difficult, stressful and busy time in your life with medical school and I think that you will wish you had gone on this vacation when you had the chance. It's only three days and if you are stuck right next to your ex, then just take off on your own and go swimming or walking or hiking or just headphones on for awhile. I think it will be ok though. You would be surprised how much you have built this moment up only to see the person and immediately think, "They don't look as good as I remember and their laugh, smile, jokes, whatever are more annoying than I used to think." Try and have fun and post back saying if you had fun or not
Zahara Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 So should i go or should I just pretend that everything's fine? If you have to pretend, it would be in YOUR best interest not to go. It doesn't matter what your friends think, you do this for you own self-preservation. It doesn't do you any good to pretend while you're in turmoil inside. Save yourself the possible awkwardness as well as hurt and keep away. If you feel a sense of fear, trust your gut feelings.
