So I wound up seeing my ex the other night and it really was different than how I imagined it would be. I picked him up and we went out to eat for dinner. I don't think there was a moment of silence. For the first time, he was really interested in how I was doing and asked me a lot of questions. I felt more close to him, like a friend instead and it was nice to talk to him about what was new and whatnot. I got to see his new apartment, all the pics that he took that I haven't seen yet, and he showed me some of his art! It felt nice, I showed him pics online and my art too and it felt really good just to talk to him about what we were interested in.
I didn't know how good he was in art, when I knew him he never mentioned the fact that he painted or anything. He painted a few backdrops and he showed me his little sketch book that he hasn't shown anyone else. He was really interested in the pieces I painted and my anime artwork. LoL, we used to watch anime together sometimes so we already had something to talk about. He showed me some magazines of photos and how he wants to do similar ones. It really was a great time. There wasn't anything that made me feel uncomfy.
We both changed a lot from when we knew each other and I told him while I was driving about how things have gotten better. When I explained how I learned to handle my problems, he started to say things that made perfect sense and agreed with what I said. I felt so happy to know that he could see that. He understood me so much better and I think we both were just glad to be with each other for that time. It was cute, in the car I kept being crazy while driving and he wasn't wearing his seatbelt so I said:
Me: *making a sharp turn* You better put on your seatbelt sport.
Travis: Ah, I lived a good life, if I lost it now it's not like I would be unhappy, right?
Me: *surprised/happy* yeah *laughs*
I don't know why but it really moved me. So much happened that it felt more like a best friend relationship. I was really happy he didn't try anything funny like kiss me or anything. He gave me a simple hug when I saw him and when I left. It was really not how I was expecting the day to go, but I was glad, it was better than I expected. I also wanted to thank Mandy for worring about me, I know you felt that maybe he would pull a trick on me. I'm glad that you were concerned about me, it really meant a lot to me! *hugs*
That's about it for now, this is my last day of a full class and then Thurs I take my test! *dun dun dunnnnnn* I have Wednesday off so, I will be studying like mad! Talk to you later my darlings!
