Nowhere to run to....

After the emotional pain I've felt for the past few months, I feel like I have finally let go and am ready to go on with what's left of my life. But somehow these road blocks keep popping up. Today I was chilling, trying to enjoy a rare Saturday off when I get a text from a friend of mine who I haven't spoken with in awhile. "I'm at an event in Norfolk and I see your "ex" and his boyfriend." The first question that came to mind was, "damn, can I get a hello, how are you?"
I text him back and responded, "Thanks for the update." Later I call my grandmother and one of the first questions she ask is if I have seen my ex. It's like wherever I go I can't escape being asked about him. Ok we were together for almost five years. And there was a time where you wouldn't have seen one of us without the other. And even after our break up and some of the messed up things that followed we still manage to be friends. But our lives are seperate now. He has found a new love and is happy. I'm slowly but surely getting on with my life. Going back to some of the old things I used to do and trying to make new friends. I often ask myself though, how can I move on when I'm constantly confronted with people asking about him. It's become really annoying. Still I'm not going to let these little roadblocks side track me on my quest to re-discovering me. Next time if someone asks about my "ex" my answer will be I don' t know about him. But I'm doing JUST FINE!
