Honeybun11 Posted December 13, 2013 Posted December 13, 2013 So this morning I hit rock bottom and I literally felt like I was going to suffocate! My friend text me saying she saw my ex and his new girl in a restaurant and she was so lovely, saying I was prettier than the new girl. That's beside the point because she is my friend so of course she would say that! Anyway, the same friend invited me to pilates tonight, I was a bit skeptical at first as I felt horrendous, but I pulled myself out of this self-pity and went. BEST DECISION EVER! My friend, who I have known forever, reminded me of what a fun and positive person I am, and how my ex just was not. He's one of those people who would rather sit on the side lines and watch, than actually get up and have fun (that's what I do!) Then a whole string of bad things I forgot came up, how judgmental he was about EVERYTHING and EVERYONE (I am known for being the least judgmental person) and it used to get me down because he and his family would judge people on the smallest things! The irony of it all was that they then worried that people judged them! I also remembered how negative he is about everything, he has such a great life he has a good job, great car, good health, great bunch of friends and yet he still thought it wasn't enough and didn't do anything about it, except moan! I am off to America next summer, so my thinking is - he can go out for a meal each week with his new girl, in the same boring town, with the same people, whereas I'll be out in the world meeting new people, in different towns and just having fun and enjoying being young! I feel very positive now, and realise that I am much better off without him, because I am open minded, fun and positive everything he is not! I just hope I don't wake up tomorrow and it hits me again :-/ I hope this break through lasts and all you poor people on this site get yours soon too, because it makes you realise what a bloody good person you are and you don't deserve any of this rubbish!! 5
im_thedude Posted December 14, 2013 Posted December 14, 2013 Good! When you see your friend at pilates tonight, slap her upside the head and tell her to never inform you of anything that has to do with your ex. Other than that though it seems like you are making okay progress. 2
