  1. Hang in there. All you can do is keep your head held high as you're doing.

    And no, believe me, that's NOT easy for me to say! Have had to do it so many times, and failed many of those times. It's so much easier when you keep a cool face.

    Maybe I shouldn't say this, but I DO hope he dumps her within the usual six months to a year!

  2. This was meant to be tongue-in-cheek. I was remarkably fine. I smiled and waved when I saw him but we otherwise avoided each other and I stuck like glue to my girlfriends. Part of me wonders whether he actually told me about it just because I had RSVPed to that event that he was taking her to and knew we'd run into each other. Didn't get a good look at the girl. She wasn't a supermodel or anything.

  3. I'm so glad to hear it - and to read your latest post. Sounds like you're gaining a lot of insight and that it's a peaceful feeling. I know I couldn't have managed a friendly smile/wave in that situation, and as you say, this is great practise for the Ex. Good for you.

  4. That's as light and breasy and it goes. Shows the kind of "class act" that you are! Good work. And you never know how things are going to play out in the end. You definitely don't want to burn bridges if you actually liked him--especially since you said he was very decent the whole time, even in the breakup.

    In fact, my brother and his girlfriend parted ways for a while and then realized they were better off together and the others didn't really compare. Today they celebrated their 8th wedding anniversary with a post on Facebook about "8 years ago today I married my best friend and my soulmate..."

    My point, light and breezy and always with a smile (when possible) if he was a decent guy. You just never know. Either way, at least you will have positive feelings as friends, and that's a good thing.
