Just added it to my calander for Dec 31 at 10 PM! I promise to update before the ball drops. It's probably be less exciting, though. Awkward for me and my mom and grandpa. My dad's already laughing about it though. And my grandma just yelled "Oh no!" when an old WW2 TV show played a radio message about President Roosevelt passing away, so... I'm not exactly worried about her holding a grudge!

"her" was in quotes because that was more of a gift to myself. But since that detail of the story is what you want elaborated... as I said,, that was part of her gift. I also got her a forever rose, a couple of iridescent tumbler cups that she always takes off the shelf and calls cute, but puts back on the shelf, and 2 2nd row VIP seats to her favorite Trevor Noah next November. I know how to gift give, I just wanted to keep the story about my fuck up instead of my strengths 💪

Ok im a lil different to most. If you have no support/family etc, it can be hard to let go of an ex's family. I think you need to have a convo with your ex and be honest about your feelings. Your feelings about him but that u get it's over and about his family. If he has a new gf and u r truly supportive, great! When his family invites you, try saying "oh are "ex bf name" and "new gf name" coming? It would be great to see them!" That's the best sort of support. Do u get along with his new gf?

Lastly maybe think why u r friends still. Do u wanna stay friends with the hope of reuniting in time? Or just because u enjoy the friendship? If it's just for the friendship, u need to champion his cause and his choices.... particularly with his family.

Good luck!

Find a womens shelter, or beg your family or friends (even if they’re not super close you never know who will help out), just get back on your feet. Also Couchsurfing is an app I’ve heard of people can host you but I havent looked much into it.
