Flabbergaster Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Maybe he asked someone to write the note, because he didn't want to burden you with something in his handwriting. This is smt I would do to show respect; I would be concerned that my handwriting would be 'painful' to read, given our history. At the same time, he was worried that you wouldn't know it was YOUR opener, from him, so he left the business card. Ok, there's an explanation that gives some closure, and does NOT deserve a response of any sort. Say "thank you" once as you burn the business card. Sure there are other explanations...I like mine because it lets you keep moving on. Link to post Share on other sites

I do understand it would be hard for him to see my car, especially if he is drinkig, & not want to say something. But I wish he could have resisted the urge & let us both have peace. I also see your point of view but Idk why he wrote 'bye' & a smiley face . . . to me that feels like rubbing it in but maybe he was trying to be nice. Idk, I'm tired of worrying about it. I have times where I miss him so much & times when I hate him & get angry at him & times where I feel at peace & just want to move on . . . I even feel excited about my new life without being tied to him because he was just so strange & confusing. I do think he loved me & wanted to be with me but didn't want to cause such upheaval to his family's & his own life. I do understand that & I just want to leave it in the past but it feels so hard to get over. Link to post Share on other sites
Author 26pointblue Posted May 11, 2011 Author Share Posted May 11, 2011 I feel like posting a positive post to remind myself not to get down when things are hard. It is hard trying to get over xMM & also my dog who is recovering from surgery is not doing as well as I had hoped & I am worried for her outcome, & so sometimes I just get so depressed. But I love my life. I am grateful for my large family. They have been supportive from a distance [i live far away from them] with my dog's issues & very very encouraging when it comes to her recovery, & my sister as always has been my BFF & has supported me in getting xMM out of my life for good. [The rest of my family doesn't know about him]. I am grateful for my job- the experience, the people I work with [everyone has been really great about my dog], the fact that they are flexible with me regarding time off to care for my dog & take her to her appointments, & that they let me bring my dog to work & they are sweet to her, the steady paycheck & good benefits. I am grateful for my dog & hope she pulls through, & also my other pets who are healthy. I am grateful for my friends, for being there for me. And I am grateful for LS for the wisdom, support, & advice in getting out of the situation with xMM. So I am just going to remember all of this when I feel down or lonely. Thanks everyone for the help. Link to post Share on other sites
