...when my world collapsed through my terrible breakup with the ex oh 6 months ago... I was so depressed and devastated, BUT I was able to move forward in life and learn to cope by involving myself in positive influences and rebuild myself a stronger person.

 

6+ months later... wondering why / how / where / when... and trying to speculate answers to all those open ended questions without her to satisfy that craving... I ran into one of her friends, but a mutual nonetheless. It was very satisfying to hear her words. (and a friend was with me to hear these words, too)

 

And they go as follows...

 

"(Ex's Friend) was telling me all these stories and I just kept thinking that's so immature and insecure. What really happened?"

 

So I told her...

 

"Wow... even still, so immature and insecure of her. I told her I don't want to know. It's so childish. I've been there, it's so wrong."

 

..... it's nice knowing it wasn't me. I always thought it/believed that it was HER and not me. considering I've had 2 ex's come back to me... and value my friendship... but this girl was just 'different'... and hearing her friend tell me these words validates my discomfort in the relationship / whatever it was...

 

No one thinks rationally during a relationship... let alone during a breakup. So believing it was her and not me is so comforting.

Right there with you.

I have had so many friends tell me how immature and selfish my ex is, and always has been...

it just doesn't always sink in unless it is someone saying it who isn't very close to you (cause closer friends will always be ready to trash talk your ex! haha)

Definitely a good thing to hear.
