I miss that! what you miss about your ex?

[Ilovecake]

Since we have an “I don't miss that” thread I though the opposite should be created just for comparison. Maybe we can get some insight into why we idealize our exes and keep pining for them.

 

Here’s mine.

 

• The contentment of playing house with someone.
  
• Coffee (he could brew the best pot of coffee ever)
  
• Sunday breakfast, the only meal he made and it was always really good.
  
• Being held, hugged and loved.
  
• Laughing out pants off at stupid stuff.
  
• Sitting on his lap while he types on the computer
  
• Seeing him play with my cat who never approached another human being besides me.
  
• Grocery shopping together and general running of errands.
  
• His mom and little niece.
  
• Traveling together.
  
• Going to see bands together
  
• Our stupid nickname for each other, we both called ech other George.
  
• Having someone to talk to about stuff.
  
• Sleeping next to him.

Hmmm... I tried to post in the I don't miss thread. But nothing!

 

I miss how you would scratch your ribs when you'd take off your tshirt at night.

I miss how you would wake me up with a kiss, or how when I'd wake up you would be smiling at me.

I miss you laughing at me because I'm useless at finding things!

I miss how delighted you would be to see me when I came home.

I miss spending full weekends in the appartment under the duvet on the couch.

I miss drunk singing with you.

I miss you bringing me breakfast in bed, and I miss making you your favourite dinner.

I miss your nerdiness.

I miss your car!

I miss your family.

I miss your hugs.

I miss your piggybacks.

I miss how you used to say my name.

I miss warming my hands in your armpits, or in your coat pocket.

I miss you telling me you were scared.

I miss you telling me it is ok for me to be scared.

 

I even miss you throwing your wet towel on the bed

 

I miss being able to imagine what our Kids will look like

 

I would take all the bad things back just so I could have the good ones. I miss you.

I miss a lot. He was perfect for me.

 

• Playing with his kitties even though I hate cats
  
• Kissing him goodbye in the morning
  
• Letting myself in his place and waiting for him to get home from work
  
• His daughter
  
• Watching "our shows" together: Mad Men, True Blood, The Office
  
• Hanging at his parent's house
  
• Talking about recovery (both alcoholics)
  
• The best sex I ever had
  
• Playing Rockband
  
• Laying in bed sharing secrets
  
• Going shopping together
  
• Him making fun of me in a loving way
  
• The diner
  
• Our daily Im's and chats on the phone

i miss kissing her

i miss when she hugged me

i miss when she sat in my lap

i miss when we sleeped together at her couch

i miss when we were with her parents and we just gave each other this look full of love

i miss when we where at the movies on a scary movie, and she just hug me and began trembling

[Maggotface]

1) That he wouldnt watch movies we rented without me

2) watching him play with the baby

3) Going to the flee market on sundays

4) his family

5) the way he looked at me

6) the person I was with him

7) He supported and believed in me

 

Damn near everything really.

[nobmagnet]

still cant think of any

[TapiocaDexterin]

the thing i miss the most is how i used to warm my feet between his shins when we were in bed and he'd wrap his arms around me and we'd wake up in the morning all tangled up.

I miss everything about her...but if there was one thing I could have right now that I miss, I'd just want to hug her...just a long hug...that's all I want...it was just such a comforting, secure, and amazing feeling to hold her tightly in my arms while she held me...

 

I remember during the weeks following the breakup, whenever we saw each other, we'd give each other a hug before we parted ways, and they'd last for a while...I didn't want to let go...and I don't think she did either...I remember tearing up while I hugged her...and sometimes I'd see a tear coming out of her eye too...

 

But that's all, just a simple hug...one of my life's greatest feelings...

[almostpassedit]

1) She loved me

2) She was pretty

3) The Sex was good

4) She was a worker

5) She was girly

6) She thought me how to speak correct english

 

It wasn't worth it though. Cost me business, a life & messed up my head for 2 years.

[GrayClouds]

Does this line of thinking feed the pain????

 

It may be more helpful to think of mine this way

 

 

1) She loved pretty Sex worker thought to speak girly English
