Ok, so check this out. Please tell me this is quite the coincidence.

 

I met this girl in college through a friend, and we started dating. Anyways, long story short, she and I got engaged 3 years later. We were young, and I made mistakes...just immature at the time. Our engagement fell apart. We split abruptly and she completely erased contact with me...I guess she knew the pain would stick around, too, if she didn't do it that way. Anyways, we split up, and of course it sucked, but we never even had a sit down of closure.

 

Well here, 2 years later, we begin working together. And funny thing is, her classroom is right next to mine. What are the odds, right? It was ok at first. Then, I seemed to just feel angry towards her for leaving me because I feel like I've grown up a lot, and hate the timing of it. That resent turned into missing what we had, and now I'm stuck with some crazy emotions. She's dating someone now, and been dating him for a decent amount of time. But you can just feel tension around me and her, and I have no idea what kind of tension that is. Makes me wonder what she's thinking, too. Could be thinking nothing at all lol.

 

Thoughts? Yeah, this is wild. And there's something else that happened today. Long story short, my uncle committed suicide 4 years ago (she and I were dating). Her uncle committed suicide this summer. His birthday is this week, and she came in this morning before work started and she said she wanted to ask something personal. She asked questions about my uncle, and she started crying. It tore me up. I told her about how I coped with it.

Be a rock to lean on. Thats about it man.

 

Get into other chicks and just be about your business.

Show her what a gentleman you are

You feel anger at her for leaving you, but all you mention is that you "made mistakes..." (At least you didn't use the weak-ass passive voice preferred by government officials when being grilled by a Senate subcommittee: "Mistakes were made...")

 

What kind of mistakes did you make? Do you really feel like you are entitled to anger at her for leaving you after all this time? You said you've grown up; if so, wouldn't that imply leaving the past in the past?

Haha at least I have that going for me. Ability to use the language. But yeah, she thinks I cheated...thinks I saw a girl when I was in a trip to an out of town city. Thinks because the girl and I had contact was a reason to think I saw her. It is really a shame. I have just had to move forward

Yeah, it's just an odd scenario. Maybe I look into it too much
