My current obsession is the birding and wildlife trails of Texas. I'm trying to visit them all. There are 9 of them, some with over 100 sites. This may take a while...
This may seem an odd thing to say but hay-hoo off we go. You should eject or deep wash anything he came into contact with, and in a month or so's time when the grief for a lost dream has fully turned to anger. The old truism with over and under in it is a truism for a good reason. Now forgive me, but I must go and knock something down or build something up as I feel testosterone bleeding awaaaaaaay, byeeee.
I thought these feeling go away when you grow up ... apparently not... does it make you feel any younger? :) At least that would be a plus in this situation ...
@Vince: I don't want to be angry in a month! I want to have forgotten him. Hitting something would make me feel better, though. It's times like this that I miss Muy Thai.
@Poppy: Only for those who have turned off all of their emotions, given up. I hope to never be one of those people.
Lord knows I have had plenty of them, but ultimately, regrets are for chumps. I am thinking you will not carry yours around very long.
What is this about, you "can't call him?" If it was me, I would call to get things over with cleanly. If he says something to the effect of, "Oh I was gonna call you," that would be your chance to say, "Well I called so you wouldn't have to. And buh-bye."
@gayle: I'm tired of being strong. I want to curl up on the couch for awhile and whimper. But I can't. I have to study. I have to be a good role model for my daughter. I have to keep going.

Love is closer to hate, than it is to indifference...

@buffalodick: Very true.
I know your hurting, but keep strong and remember why you called it quits. He never called you back to say he would pick you.

Or something like that...
I'd delete his name from your contacts so he doesn't show up... hang in there.
@Heather: No, he didn't, and there's really nothing else I need to know...
@Tallshag: But I'm not in junior high and that's kinda childish.
@sage: Maybe I'm hoping he's seeing me online and it's driving him insane...I'm maybe a little childish...
It's not pathetic. You're human.
@Unknown Mami: There are times when being human is very unpleasant.
Hang in there ..you are a strong woman!

Been there....recently. Time heals. Really and truly, it does.
@SandyCarlson: I know it does. It really sucks right now, though. I'm tired of being disappointed.
Definitely been there.

@Terrace Crawford: Most of us have, I know. It's not the first time for me and I'm sure it won't be the last. Thanks for visiting my blog.
