(no subject)
I've passed the grieving process. The relationship is dead. Hell, the relationship was long dead before I even realized it was over. I'm done being sad and angry and now I'm ready to get over him. This, in an attempt to not sicken everyone I know by constantly talking about the breakup, will be the last time I mention the breakup (unless brought up by someone else, and in that case, my answer will be brief and concise...unless alcohol's involved. that opens a new can of jelly beans).
Okay, so I just finished reading this book, It's Called a Breakup Because It's Broken: The Smart Girl's Breakup Buddy, and wanted to share some really good parts that stuck with me (I even dog-eared the pages):
"...Need more convincing? How about this: The person you loved took a good long look at the awesomeness that is you, evaluated your relationship together, and said, "No, thanks. I'll try my luck elsewhere."...Either way, that alone should make you realize that it wasn't a match made in heaven and they're not worth donning coveralls for. Anyone who assesses you or your relationship as disposable is not worthy of your time or tears."
"A sane person looks at what's going on, makes an assessment, and then moves in the direction that is the least painful. But when you're hurting, you are not sane, and for whatever reason, often only interested in more pain."
Fill in the blank:
"Your ex is an __________. (asshole)
If it doesn't kill you it makes you _______. (drink)
You are a ____________. (superfox)"
"...It meant I didn't run the risk of bumping into her at parties and acting out a scene from the popular play How the F*#k Could You Do this to Me I'm Dying on the Inside ...I was okay during the day. But as soon as darkness fell, my bestest buddy Tequila and I would find ourselves at a bar, or a party, or just drunk wandering around my kitchen having a chat..."
The parts I could mention were the parts I could easily get through. The parts that don't have dog-eared pages are the parts I have to read and reread until I have those chapters memorized.
I need them memorized in time for work tomorrow. He's been gone all week on a trip, which has been nice. Now I have to figure out how to get over him cold-turkey while he's still in the same room.
