As many of you may have heard, me and my girlfriend recently broke up. We dated for nine days, as implied by the title. But, I never imply how those 9 days were, how they affected me, and if there will be another 9 days to look forward to. Well, for the first time ever, you will get to read a Rickey Gower exclusive. Through those 9 days I was so happy, at least for the first 5 or 6 days. But I then started noticing a change in the way we were, a change that made me realize it was to good to be true. The last day we were together I couldn't really concentrate on her. I just couldn't bring myself to believe what was happening to me. Later that night she sent a text to her roommate saying she wanted to talk to me when I got back to the dorms, we were at Dennys. I got there and she proceeded to break up with me, for reasons I will not disclose in this, for her sake. But, I didn't take it hard at all. I was just a little upset of the timing and the approach. But, it was only because of those signals I received days before that kept me from going into a mild depression.
Now, how did this whole experience affect me? Well, It had it's toll on me a little bit, but not to much. I had a feeling of self-doubt, that was quickly demolished with a call from my sisters. They always know how to cheer me up. But, I'm fine, even though nobody wanted to believe me at first. You wouldn't believe who all called me just to see how I was doing, and to give me "advice". All I did was take off the fact that I was in a relationship on my MySpace and Facebook, and the calls and sympathy came pouring in on me. It freaking amazes me how everyone seems to care when you say your girlfriend broke up with you, but no one cares when you leave posts saying in plain English that you are depressed (I have the blogs to prove it right below this, from last semester). So this whole thing has opened my eyes to how little people really care about you.
And finally, will I have another 9 days? All I have to say is I hope not as much as I hope I do. It's a balance of good and bad that I just don't want to put up with. Now, if you feel you are one of those mention in this blog, I would prefer your negative comments to be directed to me in person/voice. Because if you are one of these people, I more than likely have something to say about you, or not. I'll let you decide and possibly make a fool of yourself.
ps. - I totally ripped off Scrubs with the way I wrote the title.LOL
pps. - In case you never have read one of my blogs before, which are right along this one. I usually end with this. I apologize to those who may find offense to what I have written. But, just remember that these are all my opinions and I would love to hear you opinions as well. What a wonderful gift from God that we all have isn't it? We have the ability to express ourselves in words, and not violence or whatever.
ppps. - I was only kidding about the whole tell me to my face thing. You can do whatever you feel is necessary.
pppps. - Heather, my sister, if you read this, please do not find it neccesary to poke fun at me, whether it is true or not.
ppppps. - Ok, there is nothing to go here. I just like typing long overgrown things that people will more than likely read.
pppppps. - If you did read to this point, please leave a comment saying that you did. Even if you just skipped through the whole thing just to read this part.
7x-ps. - See, isn't that a much nicer way to head the ps'?
p+p+p+p+p+p+p+ps. - Thank you for reading this.
