The road to wellville
You know you live in the future when Facebook becomes your barometer for emotional stability.
It was recently my ex’s birthday, and I had a feeling a (now third) round of photos featuring her, her new boyfriend, and a bevy of mutual friends was bound to show up on my front page “feed” (wow). Sure enough, it did. But I didn’t lose it. Yeah, I get this intense heat in my stomach when I see her but emotions don’t succeed that.
So now I’m in this strange place. My feelings are subsiding for the girl who I loved more than anything, and it’s a tad spooky. My not having her for two months at the bate of her hints of false hope with a capper of the rug being pulled out from under me in her decision to give this guy (safety) a try, made me stronger.
Such a grown up thing… to be happy for someone you loved so much when they’re with another person while not letting jealousy rear its nasty head. That’s where I am.
