falling out of love...i think

[Peak99]

Candy cane, I have a question about that though.

 

I know its usually conventional wisdom to just say, "everything's great" and I really do think that is the right thing to do

but whenever I think of running into my SO, since everything ended amicably and I was under the belief that this was hard on both of us equally, I feel I would want to say something like "well, it is tough, but i'm doing very well"

 

What do you think?

 

stand strong with the "everything's great?

I'm going with the oft stated adage of... "if you can't say anything nice, then don't say anthing at all."

I think that's cool. I think you can still be honest and maintain a positive attitude. Me personally...I can't get into all that stuff with my ex. I don't trust him anymore and have lost respect for him. Hence, the "everything's great" works well for me.

 

And Zoey...if you're in that stage of saying nothing, then that's fine. I was in that stage too for awhile...but then I decided that I didn't want him to think I was mad or bothering me in any way, shape or form. So...a quick response was best for me. It got him to go away for awhile.

Hey Zoey,

 

Just wondering how your situation is turning out. I'm in a similar situation, so I'm kind of wondering how your correspondence s going. I hope well!
