Well, last night I have this chat with the girl my ex-boyfriend chooses over me. Honestly, I was supposed to be irritated and annoyed and pissed just like before, for the fact that she betrayed me and for fooling me about my ex-boyfriend.. But alas! I wasn't even feeling anything now... it's quite confusing for me, for I should still be angry at her.. at them... but, I'm not.. did I already get over it? It's somehow bothers me... You know, what they did to me was really epic and leaves me a lifetime scar and here I am, accepting it and forgiving them? Was that it? -_-

It's supposed to be a good thing right? I mean you're past the stage where you still feel pain and anger and you can even face and be civil to those who hurt you. It's one thing to forgive and another to be accepting. You have accepted the situation and decided that you are far off better without any of this drama and so you have moved on and is now ready for something better. In my opinion that's a good thing to happen to you after whatever it is that they did that hurts you.

I guess you got fed up and accepted that things like that happens for a reason. It hurts to be betrayed, but I guess you are right... you have moved on already and you may have realized it isn't worth your time dwelling on it.

I'm not sure exactly what they did to you. But I can guess that there was some cheating involved. Yes, I would take this as a good sign. You are leaving them with their mess, and moving on to better things for you. I wouldn't really get to close to her, though. At some point, this can cause ill feelings to arise.

Most probably you have gotten over him and the pain. Coz the fact that you were able to talk to her without any feeling of distaste, well, yes, you have moved on. Good for you, girl!

Hi, you have possessed a great quality. Forgiving is a great quality and everybody cannot do it. Although they tell in the mouth but actually most of the people do not forget by heart. Have a very nice day.

Maybe you are bored with the feeling of betrayal and pain, that you lost interest in feeling it? Well, that's a stupid theory I've got. I can say it is a start. it could mean you are starting to get over them. Forgiving them is tough, I commend you for that. They are not worth forgiving, if you ask me. If I were you I would thinking: 'Ah, those pathetic couple are finally together. I sure hope they don't bother me anymore. I'm off better without them, anyway, good riddance, i must say!' Just think of the experience as a way to make you a stronger person so you can choose a better partner in the future. The scars make you wiser and stronger.

I'm glad that you did talk with her. What happened with that? It does seem that you have come to accept what is and that you aren't hostile towards them. It is a very big step to have talked with her.That is something that will take awhile to deal with inside. I'm sorry that they caused you so much pain. My heart goes out to you.

You should feel that way because SHE betrayed you????? Sorry but your ex-boyfriend betrayed you and dumped you and wanted her instead of you! How come you blame her? Sorry but there is no woman in this world that can make a man change his mind and dump you unless this is what your "man"/bf wants! Might be it leaves a lifetime scar on you but that is exactly the same what happens to most people in this world. Some are only dumped once, others are dumped time after time after time. I doubt you did forgive him otherwise you would not mention having a lifetime scar (sounds a bit overdoing to me as well, unless he left you pregnant waiting in front of the altar and did not show up for your wedding and robbed you over 50.000 euro or dollar if you like and whole society spits on you and kicks you out.. like happend to me). In 5 or 10 or 15 years or perhaps 20 years you will know or can say if you really forgave them or not. But I would advice you to go on with your life since winning back someone who doesn't want you is a lost case. This besides of the fact I believe you can find a way better person if you like so. Keep in mind what happend and make your own list about your dislikes and the lies you won't buy anymore. I wish you all the luck, you deserve it.

Yes, you just moved on. Now your heart accepted the situation, and you realised unconsciously that you don't need to be angry or invest energy in mourning over this thing. Congrats! :)

The fact that you don't feel anything is a good sign that you are over it and have moved on. It is not healthy to keep holding a grudge and you have done the right thing in moving on. Just think. You deserve much better then this jerk and you are worth so much more. Sometimes life shows us the path to greater happiness so grab it and enjoy life.
