A fresh start all around. Finally, some good news! For starters, just this week I accepted a full time job as a museum educator. It’s at the same museum I’ve been doing contract work for over the past seven months, and I really like everyone and the whole atmosphere of the place. Best of all, it’s reliable, steady income with paid vacation, sick days, and holidays. Woo! Oh shit, I need avocados to make something for dinner. And then he met my eyes and smiled. Ultimately, I ran into him again in the juice...

Healing and Trying to Figure Out Life. But…the fact remains that it was a truly shitty way for me to find out about it, especially after how absolutely elated I felt after seeing him and having such a great time that last time. The least he could have done was told me so I didn’t look like a fool. His reason for doing it? 8220;You never ask for anything. You try so hard, and you deserve everything.”. As he said, “Everyone just wants to see you succeed. We want to help.”. Blog at WordPress.com.

OK, I need advice. Yesterday, I texted Pat to tell him I was submitting my application for the job at his museum that night. Here’s our conversation:. Me: Going to send my application for the site director job in tonight! Not sure if I should be excited, haha. Pat (an hour later): I just talked to hr a bit ago, I told them to watch out for you. Me: Well that sounds ominous🙂. Pat: Yeah, I said burn that waste of paper so it can be used for something worth while. Ouch that had to really hurt! Our next con...

Things have been less scary lately, and much better with Rob. I still don’t know what to do. I haven’t heard from Pat in several weeks. I think he is finally done with me, which makes me feel oddly empty. The memories are just as strong for me. He isn’t fading at all in my mindbut maybe it’s time to let it go. I know this isn’t the end, it can’t be the end. I. It, deep down. But maybe for now it is. Create a free website or blog at WordPress.com.

Two days ago, I was eating dinner with my friend Gretchen when I received a text from Pat:. 8220;What are you doing tonight? You should come visit.”. It was 5:10 pm and he had probably just walked in the door after work. I was shocked. Gretchen rolled her eyes. And I ignored the text until an hour and a half later, when she left and I started down the slippery slope once more. Sipping some weird strawberry-banana juice, I sat next to him on the couch. We exchanged some awkward conversation about the ...

That all being said, though…no matter how many people I go out with, I know I would drop everything to be with him. And that terrifies me because it makes me so vulnerable. I just hate the idea of him seeing someone else. A lot. Anyway. Like I said, Pat still trumps all of this…somehow. On to other happy things I’ve done…this morning I ran a 5k! I’m just glad that despite my emotional turmoil, I’m still getting out and doing things. It’s good to know that I can rise above the pit of...And then, I was in ...

This isa long story. To keep things short, here we go: Pat started texting me again a little over a month ago. He’s still in a relationship with the same girl, according to Facebook. He hasn’t said anything inappropriate, but he does refer a lot to our history together, and is generally flirty enough that I feel sort of bad for his girlfriend.
