In two hours it will be said since he left my harsh but truthful text on Read and summarily disappeared.
Backstory: He lashed out at me on a trip and told me to eff off and walked away. I swallowed it to keep the peace until I got home, then texted him how his vile behavior is not, and will not, ever be acceptable.
You might ask, "Do I regret sending that text knowing that he would ghost you?"
No.
Not one bit.
Everyone has a line that cannot be crossed. His words, deeds crossed that line.
No one around him would ever be brave enough to call him out on his spoiled brat behavior.
I did.
His prestige in life fazes me not. I cannot be bought.
At least I am the one soul confident enough to make him tow that line or be gone.
Life is too damn short to suffer crass, egotistical souls.
Yes, I still miss him.
Yes, I wish we were still texting, making further plans.
But not enough to pay that kind of price like I know his past women did.
So today, Day 38, I will sip my coffee, gaze out the window, and be damn proud of myself.
Alone and healthy, a precious Faberge Egg.
Together and harmed, a death knell.

when the quiet hits, do you ever feel tempted to break no contact just to see if he’d respond, or are you solid in your decision right now?
Solid at steel. This guy has to come to me. Non-negotiable. He's the one that did the lashing out, acting like a spoiled child. No way in hell I'm condoning that behavior by reaching out to him. If he never reaches out again, we know who the coward is in this relationship, and I don't associate with cowards.
i respect this so much
finally calling my ex out after months of biting my tongue and he just disappeared too. that silence after you stand up for yourself is LOUD, but i’d still choose my dignity every time.
Yep. Every. Damn. Time. The world is full of solid, mature, healthy people. Wasting time on the broken when life is already so short. Not on my To Do list, lemme tell ya.
PERIOD.
No contact has been a blessing, this whole break up has been a blessing.
I appreciate that. In my case, it's true, too. My head knows that. My heart is slowly catching up.
