  • resolutions…too

    I should have broken up with him yesterday.  I could have taken the iPod nano as a nice parting gift, but I handed it back.  He wanted to upgrade it.  Just as well, because it would have been a reminder of him.  Part of me is relieved that it’s over.  She sits in the corner with blank eyes, shellshocked and looking hellish bad. 

    I caught him in (another) lie.  I called him on it, and he tried to turn it on me.  I didn’t back down, just outlined the facts and the most recent events.  Then I backed away, and gave him back to his friends.  He stopped responding, but continued to read the pain that flowed across the screen.  I wasn’t hysterical, he couldn’t argue. 

    Then I cried and cried…because it sucks to be lied to by someone you gave a million chances to.  I feel like a fool, but mostly I just have a pain in my chest that is so penetrating and agonizing that I wonder if I might die.  There would be worse things.  He could wait awhile and try to contact me again.  I laugh mirthlessly and hollowly into the night. 

    Devil me and Angel me are absent.  I hope that they’ll hold me back if he does contact me.

    I should have known that he wasn’t sincere.
