Day 46

I relapsed. He called, and I melted like a Popsicle in heat.Tried to find rehab in other men, but it doesn't work that way. Remember when I said, getting over someone is all about persistence and resistance? Well, fuck that, I have to start from scratch again.
He was as usual, not trying to fix anything or work on things between us, he was just curious about what's been up with me these days and I was being all fluttery and I was telling him how much I missed him. I was so raw with my emotions. He missed me too but it wasn't an equation. I am more invested in him than he is in me and this is not gonna work. I appreciate him calling me, but like I said, he didn't try to fix anything, we are where we are. He will call me whenever he feels like it and will pop in and out of my life whenever he wishes to. I am not and never going to be his priority.

I was so proud of myself all these days, for controlling emotions and staying focused. But it's been three days since he called and I had been into constant over-thinking and analyzing his moves and it is definitely not healthy. I have to again, find myself, get myself together. My life cannot revolve around some guy who is not interested in me. I have to make myself number one priority and I am working towards that. Enough is enough. I will not let myself get carried away again.

It is good to know that he is there. Like we are not completely broken off. But I have to stop waiting for his call. I have to stop thinking and fantasizing that he completes me. And I have to sort this out. Like I can't be six feet deep into this mess. I have to pull myself up. I am drawn to him by this mysterious energy...I have to save myself as much as I can before it's too late.

There. I had to vent. Thank you for always being my mental support. I guess I really feel good after writing how I feel. It's the best possible therapy I have in this household.

world war?

 Dear B,  I don't watch the news but there has been a lot of speculations on social media of a possible world war III. My sister just texted me that I should save up money as we don't know what that might do to the economy. It is ironic because I just ordered something online last night. Every time I go out, I spend. I don't even have a good paying job and I spend like I have full time. However, one thing I learned from my past is that there is no point in stressing about the future. What I have control over is now. I can either live in the moment or ruin it by ruminating and what good will it bring to my life? Living alone can get boring. However, I am trying to find things to do. Maybe I will visit a bookstore today. Lets see.  I have rearranged the furnitures yesterday. Cleaned as well. The place looks good.  Maybe I will go IKEA. I love it there. Even though I can't afford furnitures, I just enjoy looking at them. Oh what to tell you B. My in-laws are coming this...

opposite sides of a coin

Hi B,  I've been sort of busy with the training for the job and have another interview coming tomorrow. I am torn between staying with the current job and switching or keeping both as part times. I don't know, I guess I will have a decision made if the interview goes well. I have been traveling far for the current one and every time I get on the bus or the the train I feel depression kicking in full force. Suddenly I remember home, the comfort of being around my loved ones, the easy life I once had back in Bangladesh. Certainly, there are things that weren't easy but I guess it felt easy because I was more used to it. Transport was rickshaw and didn't even think twice before booking an uber because I always had some money with me. Now I have literally 200 dollars to go by and I have to think twice to even buy a cup of coffee or a piece of bread. I guess with time, I will be able to save up some money. I am glad at least I got to start working. It is still very overwhelm...

healing in progress

 Dear B,  What I learned from the past week is that I tend to take on grief from others in my family like my own. Even though there is nothing I can do about it to ease other's pain. Hence, I suffer internally.  There is a song that I deeply connect with:  Tu Jhoom | Naseebo Lal x Abida Parveen. It kind of goes like this: “What is meant to be yours will find you through any excuse. My heart, understand that there is nothing in your control. You just swirl (let it go)” My brother recently got rejected from a marriage proposal from a girl he really liked. It was arranged but this was his first experience talking with a girl. Seeing him being torn left me in tears as I know how much he was hurting. He is such a gentle soul. I took his pain as if my own and could not sleep at night. Nothing I say could ease his suffering but I still tried to cheer him up. I prayed genuinely for him to be showered with blessings. I want him to experience life, be with someone who would ca...
