LoveB86 Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 I was cheated on (emotionally and possibly physically) and dumped for another co worker. Everyday, I am face to see the honeymoon stage at work from them going to lunch together, hearing about the gf talking about having children after 2 months of them being together. I can't find myself pinning away at someone who clearly showed me that he didn't care for me nor my feelings, we been at NC since he vanished from my life 2 months ago. Whether he is in a Rebound or not... I was too good to him to deserve what he did to me, he even knows that! His friends all know that was messed up to hurt me the way he did it, but it happened. He does all this stuff for her that he never did for me. That's alright.. I cried alot and mourn over all this. At 2 months, its so soon, but I think I just about did everything I could to accept that he's "happily in love" and have respect for their relationship as I don't have any desire to contact him. I am walking thru the pain of this day by day as I don't have any other choice, I work with the both of them, there goes the knife stabbing at the wounds over n over. I decided why not go on a few dates with this special someone I known for a few years. He always had an interest with me and I felt the same about him. It was just bad timing in our lives. He always been there for me and even bought me some nice gifts for my birthday over the years knowing I was with this clown. I knew this friend before my ex btw. He knows me and I know him already, he is older than me as hes in his late 30's. I'm 26. It's nice to know that someone that put alot of thought into me to make me feel good while my ex never tried at all. I feel like it might just be too soon to get into another relationship, but this friend is helping me to see the good in who I am when I lost all myself. Is this too soon?
aloneinaz Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 Go on date with him. Keep it casual. Why wait? You ex didn't. Having fun with the opposite sex can be quite healing as well. He know's you're still recovering from the knuckle head so you have nothing to lose and eveything to gain. 1
Author LoveB86 Posted June 9, 2013 Author Posted June 9, 2013 I'm taking it super slow... but it's sad that I feel like I should still be the dumpee victim instead of feeling like I deserve to be loved, wanted, needed or getting attention from someone just like my cheating ex has with his new girlfriend. 2 months is not a long time to be over everything, but the pain, shame and embarrassment of dumping me for another woman at work and prancing her around like he is a king, makes me move forward even quickier. 1
