One day at a time...

The Ex (formerly known as The Man) is moving in with his new girlfriend tonight. After only 6 weeks. I'm upset for multiple reasons, number one of which, I still have very deep feelings for him. I love him more than I have ever loved any man in my entire life and I probably always will. It pains me to see him making such a huge move after such a short time, but I also know that it isn't any of my business any more. We still work together and that is making everything 500 times harder than it should be. Plus he still calls all the time, outside of work and that makes things worse too. I know that I should be the bigger person and tell him to stop calling but I would be lying if I said I didn't enjoy making her a little jealous. I actually met someone, too, and we get along really well and he is a super nice guy...But I really don't think he is relationship-material. Of course, it's really too early to tell for sure, and in the meantime, he will be some to keep my mind (and other things) occupied. I thought that it was really ironic that this person, who shall be referred to as the Truck Driver, came into my life on Valentines Day, of all days, and at a point in my life where I really needed someone. Turns out that we actually went to the same high school together, although he was a couple of years behind me. We didn't really know each other; I knew who he was and I think he knew who I was, but I'm not positive, but that was about it. It's funny because we actually hung out with the same crowd of people, and still didn't know each other. But we are getting to know each other now and that is all the really matters. He is sweet and funny and he makes me laugh all the time and I so badly need that right now. We originally got in touch with each other via a dating website and once I realized who he was, I gave him my number and he called the next night. Since then he has called me at least 3 or 4 times every day. He stopped into my store after we had been talking for a few days (luckily on a day that The Ex and I weren't working together) and that was the first time that he had seen me "in the flesh" since high school. I had sent him a picture so he kinda had an idea but after he came in and saw me, he left and called me a little late just to tell me that he thought I was way prettier than my picture and even though he was interested before he actually saw me, he was even more interested afterwards. We have discussed it and we both agree that there is no reason to rush into anything so we are taking things slow and just kinda seeing what happens. He also has children, although they are much younger than Drama Queen and he does not have custody, but his job prevents him from keeping them all the time. He is fortunate enough to drive for a company that keeps him home almost every night and home all weekend. In the couple of weeks that I have been getting to know him, he has only been gone overnight one time, and he has to go out at midnight tonight and won't be back until late tomorrow. He is headed for Chicago and he has actually asked me to go with him, but since I am short-staffed right now, and some one has to be home to get Drama Queen up and ready for school in the morning, I couldn't possibly go. I would love to though. It would be a great chance for us to get to know each other even better. Oh well, maybe I can work something out for next week.
Anyhow, I am pretty bummed out right now thinking about The Ex and all that crap, but I do have some high points in my life so I suppose I should focus on them right now, right? Easier said than done, I'm afraid. Well, I guess I should get some work done...More later, I'm sure.
