is it even worth trying

my ex broke up with me in September 2 weeks before hoco. she’s a senior now in high school and I’m a freshman in college. she took someone else to hoco and has been seeing him. do I bother with trying to wait? there’s nothing I want to do more than drop a random Tyler the creator vynil recons on her doorstep with a bow. but I don’t. I recently saw on television that moulin rouge is back on broadway. she told me once about how she went and saw it with her grandparents. I just wanna text her and say “oh I saw moulin rouge is back on broadway and it made me think of you” or something. if we were still together I’d find a way to make it happen. I recently got a text from a friend who heard a rumor that she’s cheating on her new bf. I don’t believe it. but ik she can do better than him. what do I do?

when you imagine texting her about moulin rouge, what are you secretly hoping she’ll say back?

I’m not sure smth like “omg I didn’t know” I just wanna be her hero or smth but that’s not gonna happen

i’m not gonna tell you what to do, but for me, every time i almost reached out, i asked myself if i wanted connection or just relief. most times it was relief. sitting with that urge instead of acting on it sucked, but it kept me from reopening the wound

i was the one who got left right as life shifted too, different schools, different worlds. i wanted to send the smallest things. songs, tickets, memories wrapped in bows. i didn’t, but damn i thought about it every day. watching them move on fast made me feel replaceable, even though i KNOW now it wasn’t about my worth at all

Hey, am going through the same thing except she just started acting off and blocked me on all socials yesterday and what I can tell you is try to let it go, it won't happen overnight but we'll both be fine
