Dumped.

oh god i will regret this in the morning
but this is now
and i feel like shit
dont you want to here about it?

Dumped. belongs to the following groups:

All Things Poetic, Artistic, Philosophical, Everyday Life, Lesbian and Bi-Women's Art, Melbourne & Victoria, Nerds Unite, Something To Say and The Word Tree

So, I got dumped.

And im here to tell you all about it
But I shall skip the boring postmortems
Explaining why and what and how many gallons of ice cream are currently being consumed.

Ive never like being dumped, never.
It’s happened to me three times, the first
Because I cheated (fair enough)
The second
They took it back after 20 minutes and begged for forgiveness
And now the third
Because I deserve better (ha!)

Anyway, it’s embarrassing because of so many trivial meaningless things
My myspace status says ‘in a relationship’
Everyone in school knew about us and constantly likes to ask “how’s what’s-her-face?”
I had just told my close friends I was finally in love
And to everyone else, ‘oh im very very happy with her. She’s great – perfect. I’m so frickin’ happy’

Being dumped
Oh yes, it’s depressing
Sad
Makes me want to CRY
Why?
Because my ipod is filled with love songs
My plans for the next couple of weeks all involve her
It’s not my fault apparently, but I can’t see how it is at all hers either

I know what I want to do right now
Wrap myself in a blanket
One made of corny American teen clichés
Bring on the family sized chocolate blocks
Put on ‘Tom Jones 20 great love songs’
Sob into my weights worth of pillows
Use a couple of million tissues
Shuffle in Ugg boots
Sport knotted hair
Wear mens sized jumpers
And my granny undies

I don’t know how im going to deal with it this time
The first time I was dumped
It seemed a bit unreal
And I got over it quickly
The second
Oh god it went on and on and on and we never got over each other and spent about a year in total falling in and out of love
Now, I just don’t know.

Ive been told I don’t like to let go of things
And I think it’s true
Friends, lovers, objects… Everything that ever meant something to me
I feel like im betraying the past, going back on everything that happened
Belittling it in a way
By just moving on, falling out love easily, ending bad friendships.. even throwing out junk!
Its probably not good for me
If I can never truly move on
Then I’m never going to get anywhere

I have all the answers to all my troubles
But I just got dumped and am distraught
And will have forgotten by the morning

The good news is
We are still going to be friends
That’s what i tried with Mr. 2 boyfriend
But he was different, sex obsessed.
She’s not
We get along because of our interests, and personalities etc.
Oh and theres that sexual chemistry
But unlike Mr. 2, we both know how to get over that
And focus on friendship
I know we will stay friends; we had a try at it today
She overcompensated a bit maybe
But i like when she’s happy and friendly anyway

Thank you for listening to my vent
You can comment and wish me the best
But a bear hug, kiss on the forehead
And a giant toblerone would also be welcome.

    oh dear, welcome to the club! i had a relationship end on my 6 weeks ago and i’m still not quite right.

    i am like what you said your second break-up was like, never being sure whether i am over it or not, falling back on myself and changing what i thought. i don’t like it.
    and this is my first, it was awful.

    i liked your venting, i surely can relate.
    come to my house, eat some bertie beetles (14 for $3) and you’ll feel better.

    xxxxxxo
    s-a

    but yeah, I remember the days when things used to hurt… I think… nah. actually i don’t. :)

  • Ash rebeltherace replied

    As you get older, you will appreciate that this was young love… it will hurt, but you will get past it and one day you will meet someone I be thankful that you didn’t stay with this person :)

    the real key to moving forward for the better is learning to love YOURSELF and take care of yourself. Because no woman can do that for you. As soon as you do, the universe will send its rewards.

  • Ash rebeltherace replied

    thanks, thats actually really helpful!

  • Emma A

    poor girl, yes we will all sit and eat chocolate and diss relationships, then break down and whine about how much we miss them.

    yes, chocolate is a very good idea, i never went through a huge eating phase, but i think it is stilling coming in there somewhere!

    xx
    s-a

  • Ash rebeltherace replied

    oh god keep those cliches coming
    they are music to the ears = ]

    see, i dont actually recall having the big eat phase thing either
    but over the last year i put on a heap of weight
    i was never skinny
    but now i have curves = [

    jaycee

    Oh its true dear :) just give yourself time :)

  • kossimarsalsa

    kossimarsalsa

    ah yes, i’ve done that like 3 times over the past 3 years, highschool put me over the edge i think. not good.
    but none the less, you are very beautiful, despite what you think.

    i went and got some of those bertie beetles and ate them, because almost everyone i know is having relationship (or lack there of) problems at the moment, it is rather bad.
    there is a lot of sitting around at lunchtime, in secret places used for smoking by everyone else and gossiping by us, whining about the people we like and the fact that we like them.

    it is screwed up, in the words of my friend:
    ‘why is life so hard?’

    love youu,
    xx
    s-a ♥

  • Ash rebeltherace replied

    wow.
    ever had someone speak to you (well, type)
    and known EXACTLY what they are saying
    as if they are recalling your own life
    .. thats what that was just like

    goodnight
    love you too

    You know the most annoying thing about it, is that when that happens suddenly you notice more couples like they crawled out the woodwork, more love songs on the radio (in your case yr i-pod) and just about everything on the t.v is a giant love-fest! the consolation is, most of those couples are probably wishing they where with someone else, love songs are tediously boring most of the time and as for T.v? you can always press the off button…. You will find love again, people always do its the natural order of things, and the failed bits are normally life lessons to guide you to the person you should really be with. :)

    sorry to hear, Ash. Ice cream is goodness for sure, but time and hugs help so much, too.
    write it out as well, I always find that to be cathartic
    hug

  • Ash rebeltherace replied

    thanks, you’re my favourite vegetable i must admit = ]

    Where do we send donations of Toblerone?
    I feel you big time. I tried the friend thing with my ex before I realised it was an exercise in masochism. It only took me a year to have that epiphany. Yeesh.
    Wonderful piece m’dear. I felt every word, heard every sniffle and am cheering you on your path to recovery.

  • Ash rebeltherace replied

    aww thankyou your to kind
    im recovering, slowly and painfuly
