I just keep on living up to my self-proclaimed title of king of pursuit. But I had good reason...I did...really.
My ex is taking her LSAT today and is really worried. So I called this a.m. to wish her luck and tell her she'd do great. She's been saying she'll do bad and I've told her she'll do great that she's a smart woman(is that invalidating her feelings?...should I say...yeah, you'll do bad). This is different for me...I feel I haven't been there enough for her. That I haven't been that supportive.
Anyway, she is a half hour away from her test. She gives me a call and says she's really nervous ("sh*tting her pants"). I make some light remarks hoping she'll feel better. Tried to reassure her that she'll do great.
But what I take from this is a positive. Her parents are here...her sister is here...she's got other friends...but she calls me at this important time. Of course she might have called all those other people too, but at least she thought of me.
