Back story: The last thing my ex said to me was "Your head is stuck in the past because you're afraid to move forward. To me, you're a coward." I've never wanted to set out to prove anyone wrong so much until hearing this.
My close friend logged on Maple since quitting a year ago so I logged in to chat with her in person. Unfortunately, so did my ex (though his was by complete chance). I could tell that my ex is trying to speak to me again lately. He still wears our permanent friendship ring apparently too (I don't).
I gave him the silent treatment the entire time especially when he would say something to me, which is what I've been doing the past 6 months anyway.
As my friend asked him how his life was and future plans, I found myself not caring at all about his life. Nothing moves me, not even the fact that the same friend secretly showed me him saying "I remember being that way with Suzan. I regret it."
I feel so happy. I got to be selfish for once and got what I promised myself.
Oh, and my friend and her ex (our mutual friend) are friends again - the same one I went back and forth to help make sure their friendship didn't turn out how my ex's did. So hooray!
Who's stuck in our past now? Who's feeling regret now? Not me.
Checkmate.
