Something happened yesterday that I know I wouldn't forget. And no, it wasn't the fact that the building where I had my exam last night was completely locked on all doors.

One of my exes tried to get me back. And by that I actually did mean, contact me and ask me to get back with him.

I won't tell you which one of my exes it was. But he gave me the lamest excuse ever.

"I broke my phone dropping it 8 stories during work. I'm so sorry."

Yeah. As if that would explain why you would delete our Tinder conversation, block me on Snapchat, and refuse to answer me on Facebook Messenger and block me on Instagram when all I asked was "what's going on?"

I can't take him back pretending that everything was fine before. He broke my heart, he hurt me, and he brought me down. He lied to me.

He promised me something that he couldn't even give me. So why should I even give him another chance?

So I said no. I said I was sorry to hear that his phone broke and all, but eventually I told him I was done with being fed with his lies. I found someone better who would promise me to treat me right, and so far, I'm happy to say that he has. Treated me right, I mean.

That was enough for him to turn away and have me block him on Facebook the minute I knew he read the messages.

And I'll be honest, I've never felt more liberated. To be able to refuse something like this, in my opinion, takes guts.

So...yeah. I'll just say I'm happy I kinda did it.
