I am feeling rather fragile lately. There are some things that should never be said to a person. This is one of them:
“You are a dick to me im not surprised billy left u”
A little background explanation: Billy and I were together nearly 10 years, until he slept with a girl 10 years my junior. It’s been three years since we broke up, and although I am much happier now without him, it was the single most emotionally devastating event of my life so far.
The person who sent this text message is a guy that I used to fuck. This person and I share several mutual friends, and he claimed that he wanted to remain friends with me. Unfortunately, I found him annoying occasionally. This occurred last week while we were out together with some friends, and so I went home. It was after I left that I received the text message.
It was deliberately cruel and the most hurtful thing he could think of to say to me. He was either too drunk to remember saying it, or doesn’t realize how badly it hurt, or just doesn’t care, because he acts like nothing happened. I’ve seen him once since this occurred, and it was at a birthday party for a couple of our friends, so it was neither the time nor the place to discuss it with him.
I’d prefer to never see him again, but that is unlikely. I don’t want to give up my friends, so I will have to tolerate his presence at times. I will be polite, and try to keep interactions with him to a minimum.
There are some things that, once said, can never be forgiven, nor forgotten.

Three years and you're still not over it? Maybe you should get some help.
I am very much over him, as I previously mentioned I am much happier without him. However, it was a very painful situation when it occurred, which is why this other guy referred to it, basically saying that I deserved the treatment I had received. I knew many, many things about this other guy's past that I could have brought up to hurt him, but I didn't because I am above that type of pettiness.
If you were over him the comment shouldn't have upset you. Most people get cheated on, it sucks, but you can't let it control you're life.
