An anonymous letter to an ex.
Dear Ex,
First of all, I forgive you. It's been many years since, and I think I can now safely say that I don't hate you anymore, though I have to admit that movies where a girl is hurt by her cheating boyfriend make me oh-so-angry and sobby-sad. In fact, I miss you. I miss my friend to whom I would have confided all the empathy I felt towards the wronged heroine in the movie. Isn't that just funny? I guess that's what happens when you break ties with your best friend.
I'm doing okay. Would love to hear how you're doing now—yes, even the part about being a husband and a father. I'm still doing the work that I love, and I'm able to squeeze in travel and scuba diving. My life's pretty good, I must say. And I am sure, so is yours. We both never were the kind to be unappreciative of what we had and who we were. Other than that, I don't really have much to say. We've each traversed very different paths since. So different, that we've not even bumped into each other for almost a decade now. Deliberate on your part, perhaps? Sometimes, I wonder if we would still be friends if we didn't have a bad breakup. I can hardly imagine your wife being okay with that though. So I think that the way things are is really how they’re supposed to be. So let's continue enjoying the lives that we've each made for ourselves, and know that deep in our hearts, we wish each other well.
My Footnote:
Well, hopefully all exes would be as positive as the writer of that letter. But then you cannot tell anyone to be like that because their personality upon their exes depends on the situation they've gone through a particular relationship. But one must learn how to move on, to forgive especially if the end of relationship had taken a lot of years or a long time ago. We must live life to the fullest, and instead of curling up in a ball, hiding in your safe zone why not explore the world and let yourself have a satisfying and glorious pleasure of experiences. Stay positive everyone!! :))
