Today is my ex-boyfriend's birthday. It is the first in a long time where we are not a couple.
Although I am a thoughtful person, I have made the painful decision to not wish him a happy birthday. Saying a one-sentence greeting will prompt communication with him.
I don't want it. It would hurt. Thinking about him still does here and there.
I know how I felt when he had reached out to me a few times since he broke up with me. I didn't like him wishing me a happy 2020. It felt like a farce and incredibly insincere. I didn't like when he wished me a happy birthday last year. He was late, but made the claim that he was still on time. Whatever.
Although I miss his kisses, hugs, and conversation from time to time, the bottomline is that he broke my heart. It's not in my best interest to open up a healing wound by initiating conversation with the very person who hurt me.
Once you've moved on, it's best to just move on. Any further communication prevents both parties from embracing their future. So, I think you are making a wise decision.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your support. It means a lot!
DeleteGood choice. Forget about him and write more about your panties and spanking reveries. =)
ReplyDeleteYes, they are more interesting than he is.
DeleteOne of my exes maintained a "friendship" with me after we had broken up and it was the worst months of my life. In the end I just cut him off completely and it wasn't till I did that that I could heal properly.
ReplyDeleteI think what you're doing is solid. Hang in there.
I feel like I'm in the same boat as you were. Thanks for the support, Fondles. It has always meant a lot to me.
