So awhile back I had posted about ending things with my work gf. Well since then things turned pretty sour for me.
She started dating again about a week after we were through and to make matters worse it's with another co-worker. A guy who, in all honesty, is a super cool guy. We've hung out a bunch after work together and I would call him friend. It just really sucked because I got a text from my ex a little while ago where she stated that she wasn't over me, and, "could you please let me know if you start dating someone else so I can put my feelings for you in the ground?".
Ha ha so she sent this text to me, while she's dating this new guy. And I was sent back into a turmoil. I mean, I know that I shouldn't get back with her, but then again we did have some amazing times together, and it sucks seeing those two being affectionate with each other at work. So for the last couple of weeks I have just been spinning. She sends me a ton of flirty texts, and then posts pictures of doing stuff with this other guy. And even as I'm typing that, it's obvious what I should do, which is don't even think of her any more. But it's hard for some reason. Stupid feelings.
Anyway, a lot of great things happened today.
First of all, I got a raise at work. I went from making 11 bucks an hour all the way up to 18! So awesome. The raise was in the contract when I started, so it's not unexpected, but it is nice to finally get it.
Secondly, I found a kick ass new place to move into, and if all things proceed smoothly, I should move in there May 1st. The place I'm living in now is kind of a dive. It really depresses me when I open the door and realize that I still live here.
And lastly, I met a new girl! Like literally less than two hours ago. I was having lunch with my parents and she was working behind the counter. I overheard that she just started a couple of days ago, so I made a joke about how management should watch her because she seemed shifty, and she laughed, and I thought, "hell that's enough of a signal for me". And then Bam! A couple of deep breaths, and one sandwich later I had a date.
And just like that, my life turned around. I was moping around, feeling sorry for myself, and then all of a sudden today just turned out to be a gold mine.
Of course I do realize that if one day can make me feel this good, then it's possible for one to day to turn my life to shit.

Whoa, that's seriously awesome !! ^__^
Super happy for you. That's great dude, keep on giving yourself the opportunity for that to happen (so to speak). And yeah, just try to keep you chin up as much as you can when times aren't that great. Cheers

I work at a Hershey chocolate factory. I oversee how to make fruit crunch. The vast majority of the time I'm just sitting on my ass monitoring the chocolate to make sure it doesn't get too hot or too cold when it's mixing.

Dude you totally could have made your job sound so much cooler, since you started off with the fact that you work at a chocolate and candy factory. Tell us all about the swimming pool filled with sprinkles, or the jacuzzi filled with hot chocolate!
But on a more serious note, just be careful moving on to another girl so fast. Make sure that you don't fall too hard for her simply because you need to rebound from your ex. It seems you care a lot about your ex, but you're right that you should see what other options exist and not dwell on the past.

That's fucking fantastic. Good luck with this new girl. Stay away from the old one for a little bit, is what people normally say; I'll admit though, I'm a romantic in that way, I can't say no to someone I've shared myself with. Either way, today was great for you :D.

Flirting with a girl right after you've broken up with her isn't romantic. It's sending mixed messages, and that's not healthy for either one's healing process.
EDIT: Unless you guys want to go from an exclusive to a non-exclusive relationship (i.e., screw around with other people too), which probably isn't that common compared to just ending it (most people just break up)... it's too much "having your cake and eating it too" in regards to still wanting her emotionally committed to you while you can be sexually committed to anyone, including her.

That actually sounds like a hilariously fun job. Or maybe I'm just weird :\
I really liked this blog. 5/5. I am glad you are happy. Stay away from the ex. She is playing terrible games -_-.
