day 3

Day 3: Make your breakup bible.

The idea of this one is to write out a bunch of crap about the ex that you hate or that he/she did that was awful, so that anytime you are tempted to call or text, you just take a look and refrain. Well, I have no problem refraining at this point, although this REALLY would have come in handy awhile back, and Booya has so far been able to call me or his new Match.com hottie instead of the ex...I dunno, I guess this is a good thing, and I think that in order to make a break you definitely need to stop communicating, but making a list...eh...at one time you thought this person was awesome, the bomb, the sun rose and set in their eyes...writing down a few annoying habits...well, just seems like a waste of time. Instead of doing that, Booya and I are concentrating on the present moment and trying to just accept that sometimes it just doesn't work...no matter how badly you want it to. We are trying to, instead of vilify, just accept that sometimes love simply doesn't go both ways, even though we want it to. We are trying to move past "all that was wrong" and be grateful for the time we had, choosing instead to be grateful that we are free to find someone NOW who is right, and with whom the love is real and reciprocated.

That said...I have hidden his phone...if he tries to call her I will throw it in the river.
