It's getting close to the end now, and I am not even really sure what the point of my little experiment was. I'm probably calmer and more focused during the day for not having to deal with peoples' pseudo-liberal political indignation, resentment, and finger pointing. I'm definitely not getting involved in discussions that upset me, or that I feel are not handled delicately enough. But, I'm also not any better of a person. I'm still turning on my computer and mindlessly typing in www.facebook.com before realizing what I'm doing and writing a different URL instead. Maybe it's habit or muscle memory, or maybe it's part of a bigger problem...
The question I keep coming back to, however, is how do I graciously return to Facebook, after I made such a public announcement about us breaking up? What will people think of me? I never said I was planning to stay away forever, but I didn't exactly tell people I'd be back either. The fact that I am concerned with what people will think of me and how they will react to my return lets me know that I'm not ready to enter that world again... but it's pretty lonely out here.
