Happy Thanksgiving all. I was fortunate enough to not spend it alone this year, but I can't help but still feel lonely and anxious around all these people. My ex was nice enough to invite me to dinner with her extended family, but I can't help but feel awkward since I'm not really in the family circle anymore. To make matters worse, she's talking to a new guy, and it seems like they're getting pretty chummy. So while it isn't the the new relationship that bothers me (we ended things amicably and are kinda close still), I'm pretty sure it's just the fact that she's getting attention from someone else. Honestly, it would be nice if I got that attention too, to look forward to a text notification from someone new.
