Yesterday, after almost two years of not seeing each other, Jason and I met.

Who is Jason anyway?

When I started blogging here in Soulcast, he was mostly the subject of my blogs, among many others. When I was just starting out in the real world, he was my constant date, my constant companion, and I really thought he was the One.

Then things started to take a different turn. He had a new job, and I had my career to pursue. I was also dating other people and he was miles away. 

We stopped seeing each other and hadn't talk in a while. Of course, there are times that we would text each other just to catch up and say our hellos, but things weren't the same again.

Then I met a lot of people after him, and along came JC. 

But yesterday's meeting was more of a catch-up and definitely not a date, for I already told him that I am quite happy with JC, which is absolutely true. JC and I managed to patch things up and things are quite better, well, a lot better than it ever was.

Yesterday, when Jason and I were talking, I could sense that we already have changed. We are really two different people, different from the people who were just starting out with their careers, people who are just so eager to explore the world. And I feel that we lead different lives.

When we were talking, we reminisced about the old times like when he used to walk me to my house, or the times when we go out apartment hunting for me, or the times when I make him eat things that he is not really familiar. It made me realized something, we indeed had a lot of memories together. I mean we did date for more a year and a half.

Now that I think about it, he knew me at a chapter in my life where I was this good girl who is still trying to get herself out there. This girl who is trying to prove something to everybody.

Of course, I really did appreciate it when he complimented on the changes that I have in my career and in my appearance. Well, he was ogling at my figure at the least. Hey, having abs like I have takes real hard work and discipline {{who am I kidding}}.

Anyway, I'm glad that there's closure and I'm really happy with JC. Jason and I are still good friends, and we both know that we moved on, although he is still single, he is happy with his life, and I am happy with mine.

Jason was my past and JC is my present, and hopefully my future as well.

So that chapter has ended.

Cheers,
Jackie

    Its good to have this kind of clarity.. you never have to wonder 'what if' once you've seen things in perpective like this.

    diabolicdame. Yes, I agree. Being able to have closure enables one to move forward with one's life. It enabled me to appreciate the choices that I made during recent times.

    queenparanoia. oo nga eh, ang tagal na pala nun. Parang kailan lang, but then people do grow up, and looking back, I was totally a different person back then. I can't really say that I'm better, but what I can say is that I've become somebody that I want to be.

    Cheers,

    I really can't stand Jason. If I see him again, I think I will punch him out. He had an affair with my wife, depite the fact that I think he was more attracted to me than to her. He's gay, more or less. I advise you to stear clear of him.
