Lesson #28

Be the better person.
It feels gooooooooood.
If your twatty ex boyfriend randomly texts you after a good 2 months of ignoring you, for no given reason, don't get wound up in what he's saying to you. He lies, he cheats, he's a bastard, you're worth twenty of him.
Even if he tells you that he's had to go to hospital because he's been diagnosed with depression and is going through a really hard time right now, you'd really be better off not talking to him. Harsh, yes, but pragmatic.
And when you ask him if there was something he wanted, and he replies 'nah I just thought I should speak to you, sorry' don't rise to it.
Really? You thought you should speak to me? After neglecting me and abandoning me without warning or justified reason? You thought that now, right at the point where I've finally moved on from you, and I'm not crying endlessly because of you, that you'd take this rare opportunity to speak to me? You really think you deserve to speak to me after the shit you put me through? After all those months of waking up every morning and thinking 'this'll be the day... this'll be the day when he actually acknowledges my existence', you thought that now would be the ideal time to speak to me?
You prick. You absolute nobbing bastard prick. I am so better off shot off you. Wankshaft, tossing, inconsiderate, pathetic, rude, obnoxious cunt of a man.
I was so proud of myself for replying: You don't have to speak to me, I think you made it pretty clear where we stand. And I don't need your apology.
So very proud. I didn't lose control, I didn't resort to abuse, I didn't even get angry until a few minutes after. Result!
Be the better person, it feels oh so very good!
