I decided to take a little Hiatus from all things blog/social networking/IM related for a little while because I felt like it was stressing me out too much! I was getting caught  up in some old bad habits with my ex and he mentioned that we should talk via email and while at first I was quite excited to be able to talk to him I realized that I really do not need to talk to him so I have been avoiding using the internet for social reasons as much as possible the last couple weeks. This last weekend I went away to a friends cabin (a girls weekend) it was great because for the first time since probably 2 years ago all of us are single! I love being single when all of your friends are also single, it is so much more fun! Anyways, over the last week or so I have realized that I don't have enough self control to be around my ex and still be happy. I am so much happier when he is not around and I was in denial about the fact that I couldn't avoid him because it would mean avoiding all of my other friends. I realize now that just isn't true! I also got to thinking this weekend that it has been about 9 months since my ex and I broke up (for the first time, about 3 since the last time we officially broke up) and I have not dated anyone in that time period! I need to get out there and have some fun! So with that being said I think I am going to finally give in and try dating again, I am going to go out with a guy this weekend. I hope that if nothing else I can at least have a good time without thinking about my ex during it!
