    It hurts to think of your ex with another guy, but you've just got to try not to think about it. Me, I figure if she's going to party and have fun, then I'm damn well going to try to do the same thing (not sex, just having fun in general). "The best revenge is to have a good life"

    That's what is needed!! What killed me was when me and my ex first broke I just stayed in my apartment wasting away being depressed and not recovering and losing 15 lbs!! Get out and be around people as much as possible!! It hard to adjust to life without that person that has been such a big part of it.

    You for sure, I'm going to try to hang out with my good friends more
    I'm hoping that I can buy a new car as well in the near future due to my stocks doing quite well

    I remember before id always want to break up, and she'd cry and run after me when I drive away
    But when I'm sad, NOTHING can be done lmao

    I wish I could feel like myself again... its been 2.5 months and I still think about my ex everyday!!

    Oh man shult, by no means do I not think about her nomore
    But I got to go out and do my thing right
    I was thinking yesterday, I'm 23 and still really young, if I waste anymore time on this relationship THEN that would be a real shame
    My current state is like at certain times I'm happy, then ill get hit with a BIG BLOW, only to get mad and say F*** that b**** lmao
    Man I'm pretty angry right now
    But I think talking to girls helps temporarily
    Still hoping I can wake up one day and not care AT all

    Young our stories are similar but roles are swapped. Im pretty certain what you're feeling is what my ex is feeling towawrds me right now. And it doesn't give me a warm and fuzzy about the future between me and her.

    Hey young just checking to see how you are doing bro. Im startint have a new outlook on life... my last Facebook status "Starting to realize that when life closes a door it also open a window. Although that window right now is just slightly cracked, but hopefully it will open up more in the future :)" I actually went out last night, and had a blast met some really awesome people.

    Hey guys, just doing an update!
    I'm still alive HAHA surprisingly!
    Some stuff that happened since I posted:
    1) Haven't talked to my ex at all
    2) Met this girl in class, I thought she was cool and found out she was single, only to realize that she still talks to her ex according to her Facebook page lol SAD
    3) Trying to avoid everything I did during my first breakup with this girl, even as far as talking to certain people and certain TV channels *laughs*
    4) Talked to my old friends and apologized saying that I forgot who I was, but they all seemed really nice, I'm even going to go for dinner with my old best friend(who's a girl), and I even remembered details about her last boyfriend who she broke up with recently and she told me wow you have really good memory when it comes to me lol
    5) Found out that I'm in my good buddy's class next semester so that should be fun!
    6) Might be buying a new car in the new years, so I'm amped for that, hopefully it goes through!

    Where's my ex right now? No idea, probably having sex with another guy or at some club thinking she's the greatest thing since sliced bread

    Hmm in terms of my feelings, at this point I'm more mad that I didn't get to work out today lol
    But I'm sure ill have those sad moments out of nowhere : )

    Great to see that you're doing good. You should be careful about avoiding stuff just because it reminds you about your ex though. Not to say that I haven't done the same thing, but in the end you'll just limit yourself and your own life.

    You sound like you're doing terrific for the short amount of time. Keep up the good work!
    You're going to be just fine without her! :)

    Hey something, you your right, I just want to try to avoid certain things as much as I can right now but hopefully I can do those same things in the near future
    For some reason I just really want to make a ton of money, I keep having this feeling that if I do, ill be pretty happy lol

    hey guys just doing another update, mostly to see if I'm doing any better lol
    kind of frustrated studying for my finals in 2 weeks, I figured id do it earlier, every time I do my readings I start to think about money for some reason, and that this is a complete waste of time!
    to add I'm getting bigger awfully quick for a guy who just started working out a few weeks ago...

    oh and my ex called me randomly a few days ago, I picked up to see what was going on, I figured she probably needed help haha
    turns out she had a flat tire on her way to a club with some friends and she asked me if I had the lug nut key or whatever for it, I told her no I don't think I do
    well even if I did, why the hell would I deliver it to her on a Saturday night? Am I making any sense here? Lol

    in any case I seem to be more upset about continuining my education (majoring in criminology) and almost done my 3rd year... I feel like I want to just work or something but I don't know...
  • Dec 6, 2009, 05:31 PM
    Something_Here

    She called you because she had a flat tire? She probably just wanted an excuse to talk to you and see what's up.
  • Dec 6, 2009, 09:02 PM
    Young_Cardinal

    hmm not sure, I think she really just wanted me to perhaps bring the key or whatever down where she was or perhaps for the future
    regardless it was pretty random lol
    what do u guys think about my school situation? I'm almost done my 3rd year... I feel like I should work or something somewhere bit I don't know...
    don't want to have regrets if I take a few semesters off.. im currently 23 and feel very old lol

    My son hit that wall in his third year, and it was a struggle to get through it. But he did, and then the 4th year, and finally he was done. He's being very well paid to teach English in Korea, and that would never have happened had he not finished.

    Please, please, please times one zillion, do not quit now!! Ok, bend over, you need a good swift kick! Taking a few semesters off will really put you out of whack. If you had to take time off to save money to go back that's one thing. But, if there are no money problems, although it's probably tight like all students, you must keep going. Add up the days left (not very many), and mark them off each day. Give yourself a reward when you get through each week, and plan a party for when you are done.

    Reach that goal!!

    You've had upset, yes, but the foundation of your education, and being so close at hand to being finished, you will seriously regret this for the rest of your life.

    You'll get used to working. Then a car payment. Then rent. Then utilities, insurance, phone, internet, groceries. THAT will go on a LOT longer that a measly two more months!

    Are you NUTS?? Don't you DARE stop now. I am really serious when I say that you will regret this. It is within your grasp. There is light at the end of the tunnel. Get off your sorry butt and put your heart and soul into getting good marks and finishing the best you can. Give it all you've got.

    Please, knock that quitting right out of your head.
