Long time reader, first time poster.
I met my ex in residence last year in University. We dated for four months and were there for each other all of the time. But as the summer came I had to move 8.5 hours away. With us both having to work to keep going to school we never saw each other. Slowly but surely our insecurities tore us apart. On July 4th (Independence Day, I Know Ironic isn't) we broke up.
She dumped me and pretty much since that day I have tried to get over her. Around November I thought I had, I even started dating someone else. But at the start of Decemeber we got together for our best friends birthday. And it was unreal, to me at least it was like nothing had changed. We laughed and talked it just felt so unbelievably right and natural.
Afterwards I talked about my ex with the said best friend, and the friend told me to go for it and be true to the feelings i have. This was on Dec 4th, exactly 5 months later.
So know it's time for the hard part. I've developed a gameplan loosely based on the movie Love Actually, I am going to send her a X-mas card with one sentimental picture a small note, and this quote from the movie, "But for now let me say, Just because it's Christmas, and at Christmas you tell the truth, To me you are perfect."
Really hoping it works, all i want for X-mas is her. Any suggestions or concerns please let me know.
