Ooh the cottage is so cute! It has everything I want: hardwood floors, claw foot tub, gas stove, washer and dryer, and my own private garden. There's also a shared courtyard with a big fire pit and nice trees. I am so excited. I just told ex boyfriend (we are still living together) and it was the saddest thing ever. My heart is breaking, but I know it will totally be for the better. It's just incredibly sad. he's still my BFF and ugh. It just sucks. But it's also awesome. I'm very hopeful for my future as a single lady
Ooh! And the neighborhood is awesome. Totally hip, tons of sweet bars and restaurants and nice parks. Eeeeee!!

ugh you guys. he was bawling and now he just left the house. like stormed out. this breaks me i hate this but i need this. i wish i hated him. god i wish i hated him.
This is a lovely place, and good for you for finding it. I think your ex's behavior is pretty 'expectable', for lack of a better word, and it has to be hard for him to see you so happy. When do you move, and how much longer does he have to watch you be all excited about moving etc?
Seriously, I'd make myself pretty scarce around him at this point.
Oh yes, it's definitely what I expected. And I really wasn't excited about it when I told him, I immediately started crying. He did say he is happy for me, but he's just in such a rough spot in his life right now that it is going to be really hard for him. But, he will get through it, as will I. I move Jan 1, and I'll be out of town for a week during Dec. I also have several friends who have offered to let me crash at their house if I need to. Breaking up just sucks.
It will get better, and you will both probably be better. It hurts now but you guys BOTH will probably find that this was the right thing.
And, if it turns out that it is not the right thing, nothing is written in stone.
({) (}) It will be miles better for both of us, seriously. I think he's just shocked. This is just such a complicated situation with him, as you know. ugh. sadness.
I am trying my best to remember that nothing is permanent.
Omg.. The claw foot tub! I LOVE it! It looks so perfect. I'm jealous!
Sorry that you're having a difficult time with the ex. I know that part of it can feel like guilt, because you're moving on and getting excited with a new chapter of your life and know you're moving in the right direction.. And he's having difficulties doing the same. You feel bad that you're excited, you feel bad for him, but you know there's nothing you can do differently. It's a sucky feeling. :/
You just described the situation so well. It's so tough, but we will both be so much better for it.
I just heard from the landlord. Six other applicants! Damn you denver and your impossible rental market. Fingers crossed!! She really made me think I had it in the bag. Ugh.
