Why should I care?

So I'm back from the musical. It was stellar. The ex-girlfriend was radiant. I had forgotten how gorgeous she is and how well she can sing. We talked for a long time afterward. It shouldn't bother me to hear that she has a boyfriend. If I had a girlfriend it probably wouldn't. Granted, it sounded like it wasn't all that serious and not going to last, but still, the girl has got someone to snuggle with and I don't. I get mixed up over the strangest things.

I've always felt regretful over our breakup, but she was the first after Lesley and it was just too soon. On the bright side, talking to her tonight was the first conversation we've had since our breakup that didn't feel awkward, so I can't really say it was a bad night. But damn... why did I have to let a good thing go? Everyone asks that at some point, I guess.

The right thing at the time isn't always the right thing, though. I've often thought I made a mistake by not staying with her. It was genuinely a happy, wonderful time even though it was somewhat brief. We met and began dating just about two months after Lesley and it was just too soon for me.

As for romanticizing things, sure it has its pitfalls, but generally I think it's a lot of fun. You should too! :)
