Am I strong enough?

Ever feel like God puts obstacles in your way to see if your strong enough to handle them? Well that's how I feel today... It's like God is testing me to see if I can really move on from my ex fiance James. I have started dating someone and he treats me so well!!! And he has a job! Another plus in my book! Anyway we've been seeing each other for a month or two now and just made things official on Saturday. Well this morning I get a Facebook message from James (and my boyfriend's name is Jimmy so I guess I have a thing for that name LOL). He was saying how he got 7000 dollars back from taxes and was wondering if he could help me pay my bills. Well this sounded more than a little fishy but I took the bait and said what's the catch? He said we would have to be roommates. Ummm first of all I live in a one bedroom apartment which is plenty big for me but not for two people... Secondly he's like an infection... He drags me down whenever he can. He says he has no place to live and why should that be my problem? Then he wanted my number so we could text and I didn't feel comfortable doing that either so I didn't give it to him...

I guess I measure this as a great accomplishment because right after we broke up and I moved into my own place we still kinda saw each other for a couple of months. I think I just had to get all my frustration with him out and then I just told him to leave me alone. He's used to his ex's being friends with him after they broke up and one of his exes is my friend and she said the reason he and i couldn't be friends is that I was in love with him before we broke up and all his other breakups were them breaking up with him. Whatever the case is I just don't like myself when I'm around him. He pulls me in to his own depression and it's not somewhere I want to be...

Unfortunately he still knows where I live for now... I'm starting to look for other places to live because I'm not too happy where I'm at and I want to live closer to my work and my friends. So wish me luck!

I'm feeling stronger every day and I am so blessed with the friends and family I have!
