Yep, I'm A Potter Fan. Guilty As Charged.
Yep, I'm a Potter fan. Guilty as charged.
Carving this pumpkin was a monumental moment last year. For all his lamenting that I did not observe and facilitate "traditions", he was absolutely against me taking time for anything that was not "essential."
So on October 30, I was carving this guy up feeling morose as it had been days since he spoke to me. Then I had an epiphany.
I was getting satisfaction. My crafting skills are basically on par with a German Sheppard's, so the fact that this thing turned out alright was really encouraging. I was proud of it.
I remember thinking:
"I wouldn't have been allowed to do this if he was still talking to me ...."
And there it was. Something so small, so simple made me think that maybe this separation thing wasn't so bad after all.

Aftermath
I didn't stop talking to him immediately after that message he sent me. Truth be told, he’d ‘cut me off’ a number of times prior to that. We actually had a set of boundaries and expectations in place for just these sorts of occasions.
The last time he'd insisted we cease speaking, after the initial shock and flood of texts I sent him, I stopped texting him altogether. He messaged me after a few days of silence and accused me of getting over him.
So for the next 6 weeks or so, I texted him every day. Here’s some highlights of my shame:

Note to my ex.
Today my professor told me every cell in our entire body is destroyed and replaced every seven years. How comforting it is to know that one day I will have a body that you will have never touched.
My response to the event I described in my last post. After this event I sent him a whole bunch of ignored texts like" hey can I help you today?" And " i miss you" and loads of other humiliating stuff. It's not terribly interesting and there's plenty other humiliating things to come so we'll jump forward to his response two days later:
