A post, 5 years in the making.

A few hours ago, after much deliberation on her part, Mandy and I broke up.

This is not a joke, as there is nothing funny about it. Looking back on those 5 years with these new unfiltered eyes it is readily apparent why. Mandy and I never really went beyond the second date. For five years we were still at that point, and eventually it became stale and it just slipped into daily routine. For the majority of our relationship we were basically best friends who just happened to kiss, sleep in the same bed, and live together. I wish her all the best luck and hopefully we can maintain our best friend status. I expect it will be awkward for a while, but after that all passes I look forward to a continued friendship with her.

I though I would be more heartbroken over this, and maybe I’m in shock, but I feel surprisingly relieved. I have taken a few days off of work to figure things out, Mandy is staying at Mike’s for a while too. Who knows, maybe I’ll make an appearance at gamenight.

That is all. Looking back at it, it’s quite a depressing end to my livejournal posting hiatus.

Feel free to add your condolences, advice, or, in the event of you being a single, attractive, intelligent, funny female, your screename and/or phone number.
