How many of you catch yourselves reading old emails from the ex?


There are moments in this life when you are so confident in the rightness of your actions, that not even for a second do you consider the option that you might be wrong.

All the time brother and I need to stop. Its saddening because its from the days she used to email me just to say that she loves me and hopes I was having a good day. We used to email each other while at work all day in order to pass the time. I have emails dating back from about 5 years ago. Its pretty heartbreaking to reread them....ugh. So why do I do it?!?!

I did this when we weren't having troubles. Especially emails from when we first met. It's going to be hard to not read those moving forward. I miss our fun banter back and forth.

Ugh. I caught myself doing it today. I have every single one of ours going back 11 years. I don't know why we do it. And I especially don't know why I do it after all this.

It is very hard to not read them moving forward. I had to go into one of my email accts looking for something today and found a whole slew of them. Ended up reading them for the better part of an hour when I should have been working. I, too, miss the fun banter back and forth. Sigh.

I remember emailing her when she first moved out by telling her how much I missed talking to my best friend all day. At the time she said she missed it to, but pretty much ever email after that slowly turned more negative and cold. Going back and reading how we used to just talk about our every day life kinda [censored] in a way now. I want to get rid of them, but I can't. Not sure if I ever will....

I know, I want to get rid of them, too. But I know I won't. Not ever. I know why but I also don't know why I won't ever get rid of them.

It's funny how our email patterns changed over the years - like you said, reading how we used to just talk about anything and everything under the sun. Its crazy - and heartbreaking - to think about.

Hey, I'm on Tacoma world if you want to join up.

I've gone over mine a thousand times before our divorce was done. From the beginning to the end. Funny thing, I've picked up on the flags that I should have seen but thought they were just little tendencies. Now I know better.

But, yet I still read them. I really don't know why I torture myself like that. This morning didn't bring any sadness to reading them, but at the same time the what ifs crept in. Geez.

The dreaded what-ifs are rearing their head now. It's crazy that they would after what happened and her behavior this past Friday at our last proceeding. I was looking through a trip site and our wedding place was featured. We got married in a little chapel in a destination place in the mountains. Most beautiful scenery. I remember how we drove up to it and being so excited and taking in all of the sights and stop-offs. Then driving around looking at the changing leaves, water falls, and all. And our little cabin as part of the honeymoon package.

I don't know what made that pop into my head. Damn ghost.
