    Happy payday! :j

    I hope this comes across the right way... You shouldn't go to T just because you weren't allowed by your ex. If you think you'll have a great time with your friends you should go, but if you're just going because you're "allowed" you shouldn't as that means your ex is still winning, in that he still has some kind of hold over you/that you're proving something by going. Hope that makes sense!
