Yes this happens it happened and it's time to let go

Your Ex Is Engaged on Facebook

So you emailed him, but it was casual and pertinent: "Hey, I found your Frisbee in the back of my closet. If you need it I can mail it or something. Hope you're doing well."
Yeah, that was pathetic. Now what are you doing? Refreshing your inbox? Waiting for his response? OK, I give up. You're on your own. Call me when you're ready to drink this off.

Do you really need to reap revenge?

Is it that important to you that you "think" you come out on top?

Is it not a little classless,bitter,childish with a pinch of jealousy in there

We all know it is darling

It is all the things you want people not to think you are not.

Food for thought Darling let that anger go and start being happy

http://tinybuddha.com/blog/how-to-stop-hurting-when-you-feel-youve-been-wronged/

Isn't it better to be yourself than 

being a try hard?

No-one likes some one faking some one else

Don't define your self as someone's shadow

Don't pretend you are something your not

Be you after all is it that bad?

You don’t have to wait for an apology to forgive(I always forgive people who do me wrong I don't do grudges I let it go move on live life happier forgiving is forgetting)..It’s not other people’s job to love you; it’s yours..What you own is not who YOU are..You will only ever live the life you create for yourself
