Blocking

I'm sure this has to do with PTSD, and your brain blocking out bad memories, but don't ya hate when you get these triggers and suddenly remember stuff that happened with your ex?

I was chatting with someone about how she contacted her ex's previous girlfriend, and as she was describing their conversation, memories came back a few years ago of a time where my ex-N's "supposedly" ex-girlfriend contacted me via e-mail.

She that he left me for her, and I might want to ask him what and who he wants. Of course, he totally denied everything at the time, and I believed it after much convincing.

But...the point is, I pretty much had forgotten about that until this conversation. Then it was like DING! Omg...how could I forget that very huge thing??

I just hate when I discover something like this that is not only painful to feel again, but a slap on the head of something I 'should have' paid attention to! I guess the good thing is, those thoughts popping up in my head mostly felt like an invasion of my space and peace.

Wow, I must have blocked some read crap out!
