hi again,
hope i'm not boring y'all with the details..
i just called my ex on the phone to ask when i could come get my things. he said later in the week would actually be better. he was really nice on the phone..couldn't have been sweeter. i know it wasn't an act..i know deep down he's hurt. i don't have romantic feelings for him anymore (worked through those while we were still together..distancing myself gradually so i could leave), but i really appreciate the fact that he's not just turning cold on me..that he's still acting like he had something vested in me, and it means a lot. (when i broke up w/ another ex 5 years ago, it was a very different scenario..)
i know everything will be fine when i go over there later in the week. i'm not forgetting how horrible he's been to me..there was very little 'sweetness' to him usually..but i really do appreciate the way we are breaking up. it's one of those defining moments..ok, i gotta stop talking about him to protect my psyche..:) thanks much for reading..amy
