what won't you miss about your ex?

braveSugar7964 July 22nd, 2015

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!

Sneaking around, having to act like a tough person constantly when all I wanna do is cry from time to time. The big one is not having to constantly worry about being green-eyed. Ahhh good ridance!!

His sense of entitlement, his ability to spoil happy times, his pretend 'spirituality'

Sometimes it's good to take a step back, and take an honest look at what you've actually lost Sometimes it's not as much as you first thought..

@CCmelancholy Right? I can appreciate a man telling me what's wrong (instead of me having to guess what his silence means... annoying much?)

His constant need for attention. And when he wouldn't get it, he would spam my phone with texts. Also, his attitude that I would be the one to give him things (he wanted like sexual things) and I wouldn't let him. Plus I'm not ready for that kind of stuff.

I will not miss his drinking, lying and controlling behavior. I didn't realize until after I left that he was emotionally abusive and now that I am out of that situation I can stand up for myself better. We still have to be in each other's lives for the kids but he no longer controls me.

@secondstar I applaud you for being strong and getting out of that relationship. You sound happy that he no longer has a say in what you do - I am happy for you too. xo

He smokes a lot. Kissing him was like kissing a cigarrete

I won't miss his 20 year old friends - he's 49..

calidescopeheart March 27th, 2017

@BerryTea that too! I forgot how annoying it was that my ex smoked so much. Always felt like I couldn't breathe around him (it was the cigarettes paired with him being over-controlling). Glad that's no longer an issue

Everytime he didn't get what he wanted from me he was threatening or forceful.

I definitely won't miss his Facebook addiction, his hoarding, and him living beyond his means.

calidescopeheart March 27th, 2017

@pandapsychosis you don't deserve to ever feel threatened or forced to do anything you don't want to do. I am sorry you had to experience that but I am glad that that is in the past. You are worth so much more! xo

@secretCoconut4082 I'm so sorry you had to go through that. You don't deserve to be treated that way. I am glad that this is in the past for you and I hope you find someone who is worth of you. Take care. xo

He liked too much money, sex and parties. He is very selfish, always thinking about him first. So I dont miss those things about him.

eternalHero77 July 26th, 2015

I won't miss my ex for his ability to drink himself into oblivion then abuse his family.
