jamesqK and I broke up tonight. It was mutual and with no hard feelings. We're still friends (and not in a cliched lets just be friends way either, I'm happy to say).
I was horribly bitter after my last two breakups. I had nothing to do with Girl #1 afterwards and the bitterness didn't leave until years later, ironically when I started dating Girl #2. I'm still friends with Girl #2, but it would have been the same as with #1 if it weren't for the fact that we were coworkers at Office Despot and had to spend time with each other afterwards. Despite the breakups, I'm better for having known both of them.
I regret not staying friends with #1, but circumstances would have made it very awkward.
I point this all out to contrast it with the noticeable lack of bitterness or animosity this time around. I like not being bitter.
K, I know I said it tonight, but I think it bears repeating: It was fun while it lasted!
