We saw my ex today


What a strange thing it was.
Buffy and I were just driving.
Going down the road.
I was passing a car and spoke.
"That is the kind of car my ex has."
It was more just information for Buffy.
Nothing really that mattered, just chatting.
As I passed I saw the hand on the wheel.
It seemed like an old womans hand.
As I pulled alongside it the shock hit.
It actually was my EX driving.
That altered the rest of my day.
There was all kind of emotion in it.
Anger, revulsion, irritation, hurt.
It is the first time I had seen her unexpectedly.
In fact I had not seen her since divorce court.
My reaction would be considered visceral (63 points).
Almost like I needed to prepare for a fight.
And the strangest thing is it only lasted 10 seconds.
She took a left and Buffy and I went straight.
Two years later and I'm still mad at it.
And now I will describe why.
Fuck you, you stupid little bitch.
I don't give a fuck about the money.
I don't give a fuck about the betrayal.
It was the things you said to me doing it.
The really hurtful ones that made me mad.
I doubt you understand how hurtful they were.
In fact I know you don't understand it.
Your not capable of understanding it, you never were.
All you did as you left was try to tear me down.
You seriously said I was no longer good enough for you.
Do you know what that feels like when your wife says it?
That is the sting that still burns me sometimes.
It still makes me mad every time I think of it.
The idiocy of it all just chaps me.
And you looked like crap.
Eat a fucking cheeseburger, would you!


PS: 63 because of the 50 point long word bonus.

I've become a fan and it's interesting to see how your posts and photographs have changed over the past 2 years. I predict that given another year or two that you will appreciate this dialog exchange from Casablanca:

Ugarte: You despise me, don't you?
Rick: If I gave you any thought I probably would.
