We get what we ask for

First off, I broke it off 2 weeks ago. I stated NC. Of course I was miserable. I had to email xMM last wed for business and he called me back and we spoke a little about the A. He told me he has not called me because I asked him not too. He told me he has been missing me and thinking about me. It lifted the cloud off my head.
So now I am sitting here missing him. It got me to thinking about what everyone is asking. Do they think of me? Why is he not concerned with how I am feeling? Well for one, we told them not to call. Even though they may want to know how we are doing, they will not call because we told them not to. I can not speak for all the guys, but mine is a decent guy, not playing any games with me. I want to break it off and end it and he is simply abiding by my wishes. If I tell him he can call me sometimes, then I am not really ending it. Just missing him and needing to get it off my chest, would love to hear something to cheer me up.

Something to cheer you up?
Lets see... this may not be what you're looking for, but you sound like a thinker and this is a thinker's joke so here goes...
The following is supposedly an actual question on a University of Washington chemistry mid term. The answer by one student was so "profound" that the professor shared it with his colleagues, via the internet, which is of course the reason why we now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well......
Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?
Most of the student wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law, gas cools when it expends and heats when it is compressed, or some variant.
One student however, wrote the following:
First, we need to know how the mass of hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell, and the rate at which they leave. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets into to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls ever leave hell. As for how many souls are entering hell, lets look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion that you will go straight to hell, and since there are more than one of these relgions but most people choose only one religion, every soul on earth will therefore end up in Hell.
With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially!
Now we look at the rate of change of the volume in hell because Boyle's law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in hell to stay the same, the volume of hell has to expand proportionately.
This gives us two possible scenarios:
1. If hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which soul enter hell, then the temperature and pressure will increase until all hell breaks loose.
2. If hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase in souls in hell, then the temperature and pressure in hell will drop until hell freezes over.
So which is it?
If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my freshman year that "it will be a cold day in hell before I sleep with you" and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number 2 must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not expecting any more souls and is extinct....leaving only heaven, thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting "oh my god".
THIS STUDENT WAS THE ONLY STUDENT TO RECEIVE AN "A"

so...anyway (deep breath from laughing out loud and scaring the cat lol)

Not to hijack our girl's post, but if you liked that, you'll like this....
So my MM just text messaged me. Yesterday is the first day he's gone a whole day without calling or texting. (He sent me a 1 line email... but whatever)
So he sends me this message that says "Hey, can't wait to see you... how are you holding up?"
I'm not responding, but I desperately wanted to write back... "I'm holding up one finger... just fine."
Jeez... the nerve of some people, ya know???

God, i HATED the text msgs that went beyond "xoxo". Because he used up his minutes in 10 days...We ended up having to text for 3 weeks...that was the beginning of my angst and from my calculations...the beginning of his new fling with someone who worked where he was posted for the last 2 months (he:security guard, her working at the temporary FEMA/hurricane office about 90 miles from where he and I live).The Beginning of the end of my affair (and well I wasnt wanting to be an OW anyway...guilt killed my sex drive and made me angst filled about thinking why i thought i was special that a liar wouldnt lie to me (trust "flaw" and ego mix). I spent too much time trying to outsmart and overthink so that I wouldnt be a chump (protective mode). Who was I to think I was somehow "better" than his W.???? :sulk: "Aint gonna be me...I am smarter!" Well I was smart to see subtle signs (he didn't have to confess to seeing someone to me the OW...but I think I blew his mind (or he horribly underestimated me). So I am smart (big whoopy deal when i am crying my eyes out and having anxiety attacks). I know my part, and I am dissappointed in his. I just fell in love with everything so now I can pay for it. (I'll learn alot...the only plus).
So...was it "how are you holding up?" as in.."are you making it ok without having me(MM)talk to you yesterday?" or hmmm did he just have a different way of saying the casual "whats up?".
Lots can be "read" into text...some prefer it that way. But I tell ya..it MADE ME NUTS not to hear inflection etc. Made me start to wonder "too" much etc. Think too much. It was the beginning of the end. I will never try to have "convos" via text again. Even with singles. There is too much room for ambiguity for my tastes. My emails to folks tend to be long. (We dont have online contact). To me ...text has too much (as Posie would say) wiggle room for anything more than "Hi xoxo".
Sunshine, are you feeling this way because of lack of contact and its affect on your thinking? Or are you feeling this way because you are starting not to want to be an OW anymore? (I guess i am asking the chicken or the egg question)
jus' wonderin'as I am reminded of the place I was before i met him and reminding myself that I wouldve been right back here had I not. Wiser, thinner and with something to think about...sometimes much to my chagrin, sometimes with a grin because...I *am* respectful and respected and that is all i can get out of this.
