Bemused. So my ex rings last night, says she's passing, can she call in. This is the girl who blocked me on Facebook, ignored my calls and messages in recent weeks, cut me off completely when it was obvious I was having a complete meltdown, serious danger to myself and left me to do it on my own. Fair enough, I get that, it was pressure on her she didn't need, she needed some distance to work out where we both were in a somewhat confused relationship, I understand.
So we're talking, lots of things about what happened leading up to the break-up, and since, a conversation we've needed to have for a while actually, it was OK. But, she keeps interspersing it with questions that come out of nowhere every so often like 'Am I unloveable', 'Am I undateable', 'Am I a bad person', 'What's my worst trait', things like that. Eventually after an hour or so of this we get to her telling me she'd been seeing someone the last eight weeks and had got a text that morning from the guy saying they were done, he was going back to his ex.
Now, I have no problem with her seeing someone else. Trust me, I ran loads of images through my head, not a flinch, I'm fine with that. I'd be happy for her, one of the reasons we split was that she deserved someone who could give her what she wanted, which I couldn't and I was actually sad for her cos clearly it had all been quite intense and she was thinking she'd met someone worth investing in emotionally and was really quite hurt. What I'm struggling with, and keep alternating between is being glad we're talking again, and feeling really fucking angry that she could cut me loose and leave me swinging in the wind when she knew I really needed her as a friend when I was a serious danger to myself, then decides we're talking again and she needs to see me cos she's just been dumped and needed a cuddle. I'm having a hard time processing that.
