so, i’m single in 2014.<\/p>\n
i got dumped two days before xmas. by text message. after almost eight years together.<\/p>\n
and i still don’t know why.<\/p>\n
to say it was a gut-punch is putting it lightly. i’ve spent the last month mostly in shock. it’s only been the last few days when i’m finally getting sad. i think i preferred the shock, though.<\/p>\n
everything reminds me of him. everything i’ve done for the last eight years has included him. i went down to bellingham with the girls a couple weeks ago and while wandering around target i kept catching myself thinking “i should look at [blank] for chris. oh, wait.” \u00a0it was hard. it is hard.<\/p>\n
i have a box of his things in the trunk of my car, but i can’t bring myself to go anywhere near his house. i avoided a union meeting because i just couldn’t bear to be that near where he lives. plus, we always hung out before them and, well, i really didn’t want to have to explain why he wasn’t there with me to my co-workers.<\/p>\n
that’s the other terrible thing. \u00a0pity face. \u00a0i’ve been slowly telling my co-workers, but only when they directly ask about him. and then they get the pity face. yeah, that’s awesome. \u00a0no, not really.<\/p>\n
thank god for my friends. they’re amazing and being so good to me. i’m sure i’d be in a much, much worse place if it wasn’t for them.<\/p>\n
so, yeah. words. ugh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
