I just want to clarify something here...

Ok, I wanna clear something up. Seems that I have gone and shot my big mouth off again and hurt some feelings that maybe didn't really deserve it. So, here goes...
I have said some pretty bad things over the past few months regarding my messy break-up with The Ex. But in all honesty, he really isn't a bad guy. He's actually a pretty good guy, we just couldn't make it work. I mean, seriously, I didn't stay with him for 5 years because he was mean and nasty, right? He is actually a very kind-hearted, caring person. He treated my daughter as his own and probably would have adopted her had we ever taken the plunge and gotten married. He still treats her as his own, although they don't spend as much time together as they used to. I totally respect his new relationship, even though I don't like her and I probably never will. He and I have tried very hard to remain friends, for 2 reasons: #1 is for Drama Queen, #2 is to keep the peace at work. He is having a hard time dealing with my new relationship, and I really do understand how he is feeling because I felt the same way 6 months ago. I know that he thinks I am moving too fast with this new guy, and maybe I am, but I haven't had a relationship that felt this right before and I'm gonna go with it and see what happens. Maybe relationship is too strong of a word at this point in time, but nonetheless, Jimmie puts a smile on my face and he makes me feel like the most important person in the universe and no one has ever made me feel that way, The Ex included. But that does not change the fact that The Ex really and truly is a good person. I still love him very much and up until a couple months ago, I probably would have jumped at the opportunity to work things out with him. I think things have come too far for that now...Too many things have happened for us to be able to trust each other again and you cannot have a relationship without trust. I really do wish him all the happiness in the world and if that is with his current girlfriend, then so be it...It's not up to me to determine who he should spend his life with, just like it isn't up to him to determine who I should spend mine with.
Ok, I hope that clears things up. While there are times that I would love to rip his face off, I do still care about him very much and I only want the best for him. And that is all I have to say about that.

There are two sides to every story, and I'm glad you can see both:).

I hope you didn't think I was saying he was a bad person, I was just trying to explain things from a male POV. Good or bad, we react similarly to certain situations:).

You sound like an extraordinary woman, and I really wish you well...
