I was feeling like dog shite earlier today. But the weather warmed up and got pretty. It's hard not to drink when its nice out.

Back from hanging with the ex. Wasn't near as awkward as I thought it would be (we can thank a Game of Thrones discussion for that).

It definitely made me realize we were probably together a couple years too long though.

The Walking Dead is what saved a dinner with my ex from being really awkward.

Its always interesting to look back on a relationship after the fact.

My high school relationship was stupid, but I learned a shite ton from that relationship. I'm sure in a few months or a year Ill look back on the relationship I just get out of and realized how much I learned.

I just got online for the first time today. What's the backstory here?

He seems happy and that's a big relief for me. I was the breakee and as upset as he was (really we both were) when it went down I was afraid I had hurt him pretty bad. It was nice to have that closure and hopefully we can be civil.

Belle and I had an ugly break up, but luckily our love for Game of Thrones salvaged the conversation at Qdoba today. I had to give her a present that my parents bought her for Christmas.

Me and my ex tried to be civil but I eventually just told her I want nothing to do with her and hope she has a good life.

Nice. I'm 3 months removed from the most serious relationship I've ever been in, and even though I struggled for a while after, I learned sooo much from it that I will carry over into future relationships. It sucks that it turned out like it did but I know it's for the best and am glad I got the experience.

I don't have the heart to do this, especially since our breakup was amicable and you could technically say that I ended it. We keep in contact far less now than we did the first 2 months, which is great.

Yeah. I just got out of the only 'serious' relationship I've been in. And it sucked at first. Still miss her like crazy, mainly cause she was my best friend. Never been so comfortable around someone, but I've finally started to move on and come to terms with it. I bought her flowers for graduation, because even though we aren't together, no matter what happens in our life, she will always be a huge part of my college experience and our relationship will no doubt carry over into my future dating ventures.

I had to take her out of my life if I wanted to move forward. It sucks that it had to be that way.

Me and the ex were together for roughly 5 years. About two years into our relationship my little brother passed away unexpectedly and a lot of things changed for me after that. I became a totally different person then what I was when we first started dating (not for the worse, just different). And he went through some personal stuff as well (i.e. couple major surgeries, unemployment, etc) that changed things for him. When the dust settled we had just grown too far apart to still be together. He wanted to work at it and we did, but I ended up pulling the plug because I felt like the "damage" had been done at that point. And there were some major things that we had grown to disagree upon like marriage and kids because of how things changed for the both of us personally.

It was one of the harder things in my life I've had to do. And it certainly wasn't because I didn't care about him, I just wasn't in love with him anymore.

I still <3 bamafan and Bird though.

I'm kinda halfway between you and bamafan425. When we first broke up we still texted everyday, I would still go hang out with her occasionally, we'd still keep in touch, etc. Like the other guy, she was my best friend for 2 years and I didn't know how to live life without her being part of it. Like you though, I've realized that I can't keep on like that, especially now that she's been dating for a while and already has a guy now that she's getting serious with.

Plus, everything that I've wanted the past year or so is happening. I've moved back to Georgia, got a much better job, I'm around all my friends and family again, etc. Lots of positive things going on. I haven't told her to basically quit talking to me like you did..but I no longer initiate any contact. She texts every few days and I respond, but I know the best way to get over her for good and put her out of my mind is to quit the contact.
