Why this? Why now?

bcholmesBrutally honest moment. I set up this LiveJournal shortly after discovering that an ex-sweetie of mine has been talking about our relationship in less-than-flattering terms.
I've been avoiding talking about it in public, except in very general terms. Now, having read my ex's words I feel really... hurt. So I created this journal. But to do what? To tell my side of the story? To vent? To call names? I don't know.
It was all a bit impulsive. I have been thinking of setting up a live journal for a while. I've read any number of other people's journals. It seems like a really cool forum to turn into words the things that are going on in my head. For a long time, I've used my web page for that. I still do, I guess.
A couple of years ago, I had a big fight with someone whom I considered a friend at the time. And it was hard for me to process my feelings about that fight. So I wrote them out. I got some criticism from some of my other friends about that -- people telling me that it was unfair of me to talk about that kinda stuff in a forum where the other person can't respond. And, yeah, I hafta concede that there's some unfairness about it all. So I've avoided talking about the break-up on my web page.
I don't know. I haven't figured out what I'm doing here.
