what won't you miss about your ex?
So, it's easy to look back at your ex partner with rose tinted glasses, but what things are you okay with not having to tolerate anymore For me, to name a few: Action films, snoring, hairs in the bath.. I've lots more too!
I won't miss him holding me emotionally hostage by threatening to commit suicide every time I tried to end our relationship, then breaking up with me because he couldn't deal with my depression. i won't miss the scars on his wrists that made me believe it was true. I won't miss having to pretend like we were in a porno every time we had sex. I won't miss the pain afterwards. I won't miss feeling used. I won't miss feeling like I spontaneously birthed a 26 year old child. I won't miss wanting to be with him and wanting to be away from him every single day. I don't miss thinking he would grow out of it or that we could work through it. I won't miss dreaming about him cheating every single night or the anxiety that he would. I won't miss missing the person I thought he was under all of it. That person never existed.
His selfishness, his lack of empathy, his way of turning things to be about him. Him not caring enough. Him making me feel guilty.
I will certainly never miss his constant jealousy of what I had(he kept nagging on about how my life had been easier than his. And he didn't even want to hear about what I'd gone through anyway) and the way he just couldn't speak or do something without hurting someone's feelings.
Lots of common themes, it seems..
I won't miss the gaslighting and manipulation! Or the attempts to invalidate my feelings. Good riddance, I say!!
Making me feel self conscious
The mental and emotional abuse. Walking on pins and needles constantly. Trying to carry on with life like it's normal and hide what's going on. And he's not my ex yet, still haven't figured out how to move forward. That's how they cripple you.
I wont miss her cheating on me with the bully that made me bulimic.and attempt suicide
I won't miss how miserable I felt when he ignored me cause he was mad at me I won't miss him lying to meand how much that hurt me every time. I won't miss being worried that he may harm himself in any way or that something happened to him and how just the thought of that made me wanna die. I won't miss him being rude to me without a reason.
Bless this thread.
I won't miss the god complex, that's for sure.
