Sadness

(photo from Flikr, NOT me)
Looks like I won't be finishing the birthday story.
Tom and I ended our relationship this past Sunday.
I don't feel like writing about my birthday celebration at this time.
I will follow this post with 2 tags I have been requested
to participate in.
Thankfully, I have been quite busy this week with work, and
haven't had too much time to re-live the details of our split.
C'est la vie

Kayla,

I admire you so much and I hope you are doing okay. I'm glad work has kept you busy, but remember to take some time for yourself, too. And some tea...and maybe some ice cream...

hugs,
--snow

I'm so sorry it didn't work out. Not an easy time, for sure. We don't ponder the term "birthday" hardly ever, but it made me think of birth- a new start. Birthday-renewal of your contract with life...

Kayla: I can't tell you how sorry I am that you guys split. Breaking up from a relationship is never ever easy.

Let me ask you this - were there warning signs? Did you see the breakup coming or did it come without warning? They can be especially hard to take when they blindside you.

It is good though that you have been busy with other things to help keep your mind off of the details. for a while.

Still, don't bury yourself with so much work that you neglect YOU and your emotions.

Remember too, the support that we, your blogger friends, will always have for you.

Take Care, My friend.

I feel for you, Kayla. What a hard time to go separate ways. I hope the best for you. Just from your words and images I know that you are a beautiful human being.

L said...

Lots of hugs.

Phats said...

Sorry Kayla, breaking up sucks for sure especially on your birthday!

Sorry :(

Everything seems trite in response, but regardless, break-ups are rarely fun so good luck moving forward at whatever pace seems reasonable.

Kayla said...

Hi Boo,
Thanks. I'll take all the hugs I can get

Hi Snow,
You're very sweet. I have been chowing down on the Blue Bell home made vanilla with strawberries!

Hi Buffalo,
Thank you for putting a positive spin on it. A new start sounds great

Hi Green,
I saw it coming for a couple of weeks. Communication and willingness to work hard to keep a relationship going are key.

Hi Gary,
Silly man indeed! But, it takes 2 fully committed people to keep a relationship going.

Hi Grunt,
Thank you for the sweet compliment!
I'll take a break, then do some man fishing ;-)

Hi Lori,
Thanks! I need them

Hi Phats,
They suck BIG TIME!
Luckily, football season is coming up soon..that will cheer me up

Hi $2,
I was the one who broke it off with him...and it hurts just as much as if I were the dumpee. I hope I don't regret it later

Tim said...

it may hurt now but perhaps it's better in the long run.

you deserve nothing but the best, my friend.

L said...

Here is some more hugs and that Blue Bell ice cream sounds very yummie.

Phil said...

Aww, sorry to hear that Kayla!
:`[
I hate splitting up and never want to do it again - I sympathise completely... Virtual hound hugs coming your way! :]
Go buy something nice and cheer yourself up.

JLee said...

I'm so sorry, K. :(

Me Myself and I said...

I'm so sorry Kayla. That's never a fun thing to go through :(

Head up girl! Sometimes writing about it (privately in a journal) helps.

Yoda said...

Hey, sorry to hear about your breakup :-( Its good that work keeps you busy and from revisiting all the gory details of what happened etc.

One of the best methods to get over a relationship, is to reinvent yourself. I did this the past summer, and I'm very satisfied with the results :-)

Kayla said...

Hi Green,
Thanks..sometimes I think I demand too much..but when I break it down and analyze it, I do deserve the qualities I'm looking for in a mate.

Hi Lori,
Just had some strawberry cheesecake ice cream from Bruster's...yum

Hey DoGGa,
Thank you for the hound hugs!
My heart aches, but I see it all as a process to finding the right man for me..hope I can hold onto that thought..he's so sweet..I miss him so much.

Hi Jlee,
Thanks...hopefully I will find the right man for me OR perhaps realize Tom was the one and take him back..
I'm plain confused at this point

Hi Celeste,
That's a great idea..it's all been rambling around in my head..perhaps putting it in black and white would help me purge

Hi Yoda,
Yes, I remember your trips to the gym..I have been exercising more..I think just the endorphin release helps, but also the bod looks better overall!
