So, I finally did it. I got a full-time job. It is nothing glamorous, but it pays pretty well, and it's 37.5 hours a week. The hours are great, too. Monday through Friday, all days! There is a possibility for overtime, but that will be ok. Everybody does that from time to time.
Some of the work I've been doing in therapy has brought some old issues to light. Five year-old issues. Deep trauma and hurt. I wrote a letter to my ex-girlfriend, the one who got my virginity and walked on it. I figured that it is finally time to ask her to apologize and also give her a chance to explain her side. She never had that chance, you see. I also am telling her how I felt through the whole thing for the first time. I still have to decide if I'm going to send it. I don't know if I'm prepared for the potential backlash. But, if I choose to send it, it's ready for it. (Btw, I wrote a facebook status about writing a therapeutic letter to a girl who hurt me and not sending it, and she commented. She said, "I hope it's not me!" Interesting, don't you think?) I'm really not sure what to do about it yet. At any rate, before I send it, I'll need to ask her for her email or her address. So that will be a telling factor.
But I'm feeling positive, and things seem to be going well. :-)
I saw that! LOL
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the job!
Oh and see if her email is on her Facebook profile under Info...
ReplyDeleteIt is there! And so is her phone number. Eeek.
ReplyDeleteDear Sophie,
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your job. That's fantastic and I'm sure you'll give 110% as always. With little bit of in-business facebooking and blogging. Ha!
As for the girl, good luck. You have an eloquent way of explaining situations and I hope that she understands your need to have some closure. Hopefully she will help you understand everything you want to know.
You're an amazing woman.
