they're excellent live in concert. They came a few yrs ago with Earth Wind & Fire...great show.

 

I wouldn't pay to see Eath, Wind and Fire. I may for Chicago though.

 

I seen Bon Jovi twice in the past 7 months.. I would never have gone out of my way to buy tickets to see him either but my gf won one pair on the radio and the other pair she sold as a discount to me so I went..

He's alirght. I'm not a huge fan..

 

I seen ZZtop and Prince in concert. Thats about it for me. I've lived a simple life..

 

I could have wen tto the Kiss concert back in 86' but i chicken out. I had tickets to Joan Jett and sold them because I was 6 mths pg and moving that weekend.

You got it! The ex has no place in my life and the one thing I don't do is have to come home to her every night.

 

Let me see. What else? I don't dread walking through the door of my own home. I don't have to prepare myself for battle as soon as my big toe crosses the threshhold. I don't have to travel incessantly for work just to find peace. I don't have to put up with put-downs. and I don't have to wonder, "Why the hell amd I here" anymore!

There is a grocery store I avoid. Also I had to find a new favorite running trail. There are some restaurants I don't go to.

 

Ironically, I'm pretty sure she thinks I moved on without a care.

I am concious and alert all the time. I am on-guard. I don't trust. I'm suspicious.

 

I don't let something special be taboo just because a guy and I broke up.

Yes, its hard to be reminded sometimes of what was and isn't anymore. BUT, I'm stubborn and I wont allow anyone to control me.

 

Right on, same as Pada.

 

I have become totally cynical and jaded too. Watching everything, or more like noting everything, keeping careful tabs on what is happening and where its happening.

 

Can be a little self disappointing really. But seems the only logical way forward now. Carefully, carefully, and then a little more carefully.....

Songs, and places that were special to myself and the ex when we were dating....I forced myself to listen to them or to go to them with other people. I decided I need to desensitize myself to the painful memories they brought up, it was better to work through those feelings than to be surprised when, for instance, the song came on the radio, or friends all wanted to go to that particular restaurant. On the annual family vacation that he usually went on with me I invited a friend---we went out of our way to have a blast doing girl things.

 

It worked...and those things do not provoke tearful memories, just a faint nostalgia. Still gets me occasionally when I drive through the neighborhood where we used to live or when I see a car like he drives. That’s about it, though.

 

I just didn't want to let what happened between us put any sort of restrictions on my new life without him.
