mmiller5373 Posted September 23, 2013 Posted September 23, 2013 Exgf and I broke up about 4 months ago. I've been NC for 1 month. So back when we were dating, I invited her to my church. She fell in love with it and she actually made a lot of friends there. I moved about 2.5 hours away for work and when we broke up, she asked that I not go to the church anymore so that we won't run into each other. I thought she had some nerves to even ask me that, especially since it was my church to begin with, however, I wasn't living there anymore, so I figured I would grant her that wish. Anyways, lately I've been going back to visit my mom who lives in the same city as my ex, so when I have been there, I've wanted to go to my church but I haven't because I don't want to run into my ex. So, do I go to church and just try to avoid the ex? Do I tell my ex I'm going, so she won't go? What to do, what to do?
malin819 Posted September 23, 2013 Posted September 23, 2013 if you'll run into her I'll just say walk
HereWeGoAgain1 Posted September 23, 2013 Posted September 23, 2013 You're no longer part of each others lives. You have the right to do what you want and go where you want. If you want to go to that church, then go. If you can't handle seeing her then don't but when you do feel ready go for it. Don't let her know you're going and don't react if she gets mad at you if she sees you there. You don't owe her any kind of explanation nor do you need her permission to go there. It's about doing what's best for you, not her.
reddragon588 Posted September 23, 2013 Posted September 23, 2013 I'm not very religious, but I did go to Catholic Church growing up. She has no right to tell you where you can or can't worship.
Author mmiller5373 Posted September 24, 2013 Author Posted September 24, 2013 Thanks for the replies. I'm thinking I will just go to church one day and try my best to avoid her. 1
