You poor little broken-hearted thing. Going through a breakup pretty much falls right between your dog dying and losing your amazing job on the Sucks-O-Meter. But, as we all know, time (and friends and vodka and cookies) heals all wounds and eventually, you usually get over people.
I said “you will usually get there” for a reason. Most of us carry a torch, even if we do it very quietly, for someone who turned out to be a loser. It’s unfair, but there it is nevertheless. In this case you know that you’re smart, sexy and absolutely awesome, so you have no intention of carrying a torch for this one. Want to know if you’re close to that light at the end of the tunnel? Read on;
1. You drive past his office (you didn’t go out of your way, but it WAS on your way) and you didn’t check to see if his car was in the parking lot.
2. A really cute stranger asks you if you have a boy/girlfriend and you answer “no” instead of “I just broke up with someone” which is what you’ve been saying for months.
3. Last Tuesday was his Father’s birthday. Today is Friday and you just remembered.
4. You got a new number and forgot to give it to him.
5. While out on a date you have to trouble not talking about your ex. His/her name hasn’t even crossed your lips.
6. That scarf is now just “your favorite scarf” instead of “the scarf you bought at that place that time when you were with him”.
7. You don’t always “swear” you see him whenever you’re out.
8. When you read your daily horoscope, you don’t automatically read his as well.
9. You don’t immediately (or at all) check his Facebook for pictures of him and new girls. Because you’ve “unfriended” him.
10. You’ve started comparing new guys against your own standards rather than comparing them to your ex.
