Tough Night

Ok so,

Today is day 14 of no contact with the ex (pretty sad that i have an ongoing count in my head) Last night I went out with some of my guy friends from home and got somewhat drunk for a Thursday night. I left at around 11 30 and went home. Once I got there I had a bit of a relapse and missed the ex more than anything. I have to fight extremely hard not to call him (thank God I didnt.) Now, today I am going to my beach house with my girl friends from home and our house is 4 blocks away from where the ex lives. I have only run into him one night this summer but it is a really small town and the chances are pretty high that I will see him one of the 2 nights. The thing is, I really want to see him and want to be able to acknowledge the fact that he is there but continue to have a great time with my girl friends and show him that I don't need him to survive. It has been 14 days and I honestly think I am ready to see him and ignore him while having fun with my friends... I want to look great, feel great, and make him realize what he lost.

Any tips on how to have a great night even if I run into him?

This kind of need will keep you in a bad spot.

I am not sure I have any advice for you , I wonder the same thing. I just wanted to give you props on continuing to maintain no contact . I am on DAy 3 and have felt myself struggle at times, but you have really given me hope. Thanks = )
