The continuing ending saga of M....

I recieved a text message from M stating he still had a few of my things that he brought over to my apartment on his way to the amusement park with his girls (like I care) and wanted to know, when he could pick up his glasses. - I didn't respond.

Instead, I waited until I got home and I am soooo glad I did. I had loaned him a BRAND NEW Volleyball set that I won from work. A beautiful piece that was quite expensive and it was still in the case, where it belongs. Then a few weeks back, I gave the girls some clothes to wear on a cold day and a blanket. When I got home, those things were DUMPED on my doorstep. We aren't talking, put together, or anything. He wrapped the volleyball set into one big mess of BALLED netting that I have to now figure out how to take apart. Then he lost the needle pump to the whole thing. On top of it, the clothes, were unwashed, not bagged up or anything but strewn across the front with the blanket just dumped. Nothing folded, nothing washed, dirty and smelly and I was SO embarrassed with what my neighbors must have thought because he dropped it off earlier in the morning! WHAT A JERK.

No, I STILL have not responded to him per text message regarding the glasses. Nor will I. Tomorrow, I plan on driving to my girls school to bring by a textbook I found and then drop off his glasses at the office which is a few streets over. He is on vacation this entire week, but can I tell you something? I wish I would run over them! I want to do something really mean and nasty now because of how he handled my things. But you know what? I won't. I will continue to remain silent, bring what is his to his office, continue to take the high road and just cross it off. It's not worth it, but I was ticked. I think he keeps waiting to get some reaction out of me, which he won't. I think he wants me to blow up or something, but I refuse. I think he figured that maybe I was bluffing last week when I told him that I thought we should end the relationship and that I would ask for him back if he broke up with me. WRONG. So maybe that is the entire bitterness going on. I don't know.
Doesn't matter, but I just had to update. Moving right along... I am going to save my next storey for a new thread, because it deserves its own....

I see more often than not breakups bring out the worst in people. I still wonder how people can say they love each other one day and do such things the next?

THAT is why I am a bit cautious about the passion when the relationship is new. I want my relationship to have legs. With that said, I also don't like to hold back because of my past experience (I consider doing is as baggage).

I admire you for taking the high road.

Oh yes - this just seals the deal for you to be OVER him and not giving him any more of your mind!!

The teacher is so much better.

I just think M has issues and doesn't handle rejection well. Oh well - that is his problem!

I'd just throw the glasses away. You are a bigger person than I am. He'd get new glasses if he needed them. You are an awesome person.

What a jerk! I'm glad you are not going to stoop to his level though. You are definitely better than that! :)
