I met a really lovely guy last week and he asked to take me out this weekend. He’s gorgeous, really nice, good reputation, great job, and we just clicked.

However all week my ex had been asking to see me. I had basically been trying to get him back since we broke up in early January and he wanted space. I agreed to see him tonight but I’ve been keeping him at arms length all week because I’m just very weary that he all of a sudden wants me back. He’s been really really clingy towards me - basically saying he wants me back, cant imagine being with anyone but me and loves me so much.

A couple of hours before we were due to meet tonight he messaged me saying he has to go view a house tonight (he’s moving out of him parents house after he lost his own house back in October). No apologies. No attempt to reschedule. Nothing. I was so pissed off because it was so last minute after having this planned since Sunday and me turning down a shift at work to go, but it didn’t surprise me because he always did cancel on me last minute.

He sensed I was annoyed so said it was at 7pm so would message me once he was finished and could maybe still do something after. I wasn’t holding my breath or waiting around on him - and thank god I didn’t because now at 11.30pm he’s still not contacted me.

Before I met this other guy I would probably have still accepted this behaviour and still tried to see him over the weekend but I’m FINALLY COMPLETELY DONE WITH HIM. And it feels so fucking good.

I don’t even feel angry now, I just feel relieved.

I’m going on a date with the lovely guy on Saturday and I really can’t wait. But I’m afraid it will seem like a rebound.

Anyway my friends are sick of hearing all of this so just wanted to share with someone the happiness I feel finally being free from my ex.

Much love ladies xx
