Last night I had a nostalgic rush of my ex GF. Trust me, I went through the "try to think about the bad things she did." It just seemed to outweigh my current feelings. I missed her.

 

3 AM, tossing an turning, I got up and grabbed a pen and paper and started writing my letter to her. I put my heart into it. I wrote about seeing things from her perspective, from my perspective, everything really. I don't wanna go into detail, but just know I put EVERYTHING into it.

 

I threw it into the envelope this morning and was ready to put it into the mailbox. While I was walking to the mailbox, I came to a dead stop and turned back around. I went into my backyard where my fire pit was at. I started up the fire, stared at the letter, and threw it in. Watching it burn, I felt a strange emotion rush over me that I could not explain. I can't say it was good nor was it bad. I don't know why I stop before sending it off.

 

I don't know why I felt this way, which is why I'm here for opinions.

 

Help?

I think you were processing the ups and downs of your past

Yeah, and also, it was good to burn it.

Maybe not there, seems a little random, haha.

I did this thing of writing-burning instead of sending thing a month after the break up.

Stay strong!

Its totally normal, sometimes letting it out, writing and so on clears your mind and then you burn it :laugh:

I totally did something similar about 3 weeks ago. I got up in the middle of the night with a sudden urge to write my ex a letter. I wrote the whole thing out, got ready to send it, then I threw it in the sink and lit it on fire. I think in both of our cases, it is a sign that we are coming closer to a point of indifference. I think we both decided that it wasn't worth the emotional expenditure to send off the letter, wait for a response, stress over it, etc. I think it's a good sign. F*** exs, they aren't worth an inch of effort any longer. It's time to stop giving a f*** about them.
