Hmmmm, I think I could get used to this. Not too used to it, though, I still really wanna work things out with Alex. But I could live with this for awhile . . .
Anyway, so I've been taking y'alls advice and going out with friends. I went to a party last night. Huge ego boost, I had like 5 guys following me around! I could NOT believe it! It was so much fun. And some of my guy friends who aren't attached found out I'm single and promptly invited me to go to the clubs with them and their buddies! (Is this me????) I'm kind of excited. All these new doors just opened to me, all within a few days of me and Alex breaking up!
Don't get me wrong, I'm not looking for another guy. I still love Alex, and hope to work things out with him. But this is so much FUN, being single! And since I'm in love with a guy already, it's not like I can fall for someone else and have my heart broken there. I can just flirt a little, date casually for fun, and enjoy myself.
To top it all off, Alex and I talked today. I've been really good about leaving him alone and not calling him. I called him today to discuss when he's moving out and what he's taking, etc. I decided I wasn't going to say I loved him or missed him or anything. And what does he say at the end? "I am missing you. I still really love you. Would you like to go to dinner sometime this week?"
I was like, sure. So . . . you guys were right! He DOES miss me! Yay!!
I'm so glad I took everyone's advice. I've decided to embrace this, rather than fight it. I'll just enjoy myself. Thanks, everyone! You guys are the best. I still get sad at night, but overall, I'm coping really well, I think.
