Ex-girlfriend breakup new year

Warning: Talk about ex-girlfriend!

Happy New Year!

Last night was of course New Year's Eve. I had a headache and a party to go to. I was also going to be house-sitting for a friend who would be out of town that night. 2008 was a pretty decent year for myself, much better than some of the previous years. At the end of 2006 I had two big things happen in my life, the death of my dog, Blitzen, and the end of a crazy relationship.

My dog had been in my life for 11 years, he was one of the most well-mannered, easy going, and loving dogs once could ask for. The relationship I was in I couldn't begin to describe, I guess I could say this much: very dysfunctional and yet for me, exciting! There was something about this person that really grabbed me, I am still not sure what it was. Anyway, things didn't end well, we were both at fault and that was the end of that.

So yesterday I was hanging out most of the day helping my dad set up his new computer. I was excited for the new year to come. The party I was going to started later in the evening.As I was leaving for the party everyone but my sister were gone at parties. I didn't want to leave my sister at home for the New Years so I ended up calling the Host of the party I was going to to see if he wouldn't mind me bringing my sister. He was cool with it. My sister was not. She claimed one of her friends might be coming over so that was that, no problem, she had plans and wasn't going to be alone, I felt better.

I left for the party around 9 only to find out 2/3rd's of the way to my destination I left my wallet at home. I went back home to get it and what do you know! My ex-girlfriend and my sister are hanging out! I left one detail out earlier. My ex-girlfriend was also my sisters best friend and my sister didn't know about us being involved after 2 months of being together, that didn't go over well with her and now I regret doing that.

I thought I was over this girl, it had been two years. As soon as I saw her I was steaming. A million thoughts that I would rather not mention were running through my head. My temper has gotten a lot better and I managed to keep cool and I just avoided talking to them. What angered me the most was that my sister lied to me, she could have told me the truth and it would have been fine. I was also pissed because my ex-girlfriend is kind of slow when it comes to social interaction and common sense, there are still many thing about us my sister doesn't know about that my ex hasn't told her, but no worries, she can't help it and its none of my business. I ended up finding my wallet, saying goodbye, and left for the party.

It turned out to be a very good rest of the night. The party I went to was very nice, relaxing, with some great food. Although I didn't imagine the end of 2008 to go down quite like that it's okay. Sometimes things happen for a reason, and although I don't know the reason all of that went down, there is a message there. Today I can forgive people and also remember the wrong I might have done to them. Who am I to be mad at my sister and my ex-girlfriend after what I put them through?

Relationships can hurt, I do think I am over this girl, but, I believe there will always be those feelings because of the time we shared together even if it was rocky.

I hope you all have a great year, I know I will!
