Hello! A little update.

[caffeinebean]

I haven't been around nearly as much as I would like, and when I am I'm just being a lurky loo. I've been insanely busy between school and work (retail during the holidays makes me want to cry).

I ended up having to see exFI the other day. He had a christmas tree topper that is really important to my parents that they lent us for our first christmas together and I had to go pick it up. We ended up talking for a while, and it was good. Exactly the closure I needed.

He came clean about the whole 'job/breakup' issue. It wasn't that I didn't have a job, it was just that he had fallen out of love with me. I told him that I would've preferred he told me that in the first place, but that I appreciated his honesty. I told him that the relationship was good for me, and that I was much happier and healthier now, and I hoped the same was true for him.

He's dating a girl that has been in love with him since highschool and he seems happy, which is nice. I've decided to take a break from the whole dating thing and just focus on me, and that's going really well. I've started eating again and working out and I'm feeling better than I have in years. I look awesome, I feel awesome, and life is just pretty damn great right now. I'm keeping busy and spending a lot of time with friends, new and old.

And that's a lot longer than I wanted it to be. But I always want to thank you ladies for helping me through this. It was hard and I would've gotten through it either way, but knowing that I could vent and cry here and that you guys would listen made the whole thing seem so much easier :heart:

I am looking sideways at the woman lurking in the wings for him, but I am glad you're doing well.

She's always been lurking in the wings. And I'm sure he's always had a 'thing' for her. Whatever, good for her, I guess.

So glad that you have made peace and can move on with your life. Good luck!

[wrathofkuus]

If he always had a thing for her, then why didn't he, you know, do a thing with her before now?

Yay. I love happy updates.

Congrats

Glad you are doing well. I've never quite managed closure, so I'm impressed you handled that.

What subject(s) are you studying?
