Shelby,

I’m sorry you had to see him. Fortunately I’ve not experienced the ignorance part of it all as luckily we have never bounced into one another (despite the fact that we live about 10 minute drive from each other) and we only ever met up when it was previously arranged and even that was heart breaking. I can only imagine what it must’ve felt like to be completely ignored like a stranger.

To be honest, it is understandable that he didn’t stop off for a conversation but the least he could’ve done is acknowledged you somehow. Even if it was just via a follow up txt to say ‘I think I just saw you’. It is a bit rude on his part to have ignored you like that considering the amount of history together. But nonetheless, the day goes on. I’m sorry he’s been an ass!

I completely understand that it has knocked you off guard. As you say, you have developed these safe zones for yourself (I did this too so I can relate) and now suddenly even those aren’t safe anymore! I am assuming he knows exactly where you work and that he could’ve potentially bumped into you this morning? What was he thinking!

I hope for your sake that he chooses another route next time! Loads of hugs xx
