I realised that my ex will never know anyway. Unless I break contact and rub it into the jerks face.

hon, it honestly doesn't matter what they know or think – it's what you come to realize about yourself that matters. Because when you look at the bigger picture, your ex is just a very small blip in the history of your life, and there are going to be others who will have greater impact on you. It might not seem like that right now, but believe me, when you find the person you're truly meant to be with, this other person's gonna be small potatoes in comparison!

I agree with both your statements. Your ex may not ever know you improved. However, due to your improvement, you will meet someone else who is better. Though it doesn't seem that way now, you definitely will. When I broke up with my ex of five years, I swore I'd NEVER find someone better. Then sure enough, the douchebag I dated after him WAS better, and the subsequent douchebags were incrementally better. Each boyfriend afterwards was better, in spite of theem all having some form of douchebaggery in common. Point is, you will actually find someone better. I know it's hard to believe, but you will. So improve for THEM, the person you don't yet know, whom you will soon meet.

Don't focus on ex. focus on yourself.

Great topic. My life is simply better period without an ex I was ready to marry. But I do feel sorry for her at times, when I hear after almost 2 years she's still a loser, doing the same crap that in part forced me to call it a day.

 

That said I've upgraded ten fold in the process to someone who not only respects me, but also respects herself... oh yeah and I sold the engagement ring and brought a motorbike as a result. Best decision I've ever made. :D I actually get giddy with happiness when I think about it. Weird or what? lol

I'm glad to hear that you sold the ring for a bike. Good choice!

LOL i knew a guy once who had an engagement ring that was supposed to go to an ex, who sold it for a bike. It took him even longer to connect with the bike because he then connected the bike to the cheating ex and therefore didnt treat the bike correctly. The way he would vicariously take his anger out and emotions with this bike, and one day he loved it the next he couldnt because it reminded him of the life he once wanted with the ex girlfriend. Honeslty, he was a funny guy, it was amusing.

 

Im glad your new bike is doing better for you though!!!!!!!

One day you wont care what he knows or doesnt know. Hang in there until that day.

 

If you attempt to rub it in his face - you will either regret it later, or he will choose not to respond or answer your method of contact.. which will fuel up previous feelings of hurt etc...

 

Keep that attitude.. Hes a Jerk! who runs the world.. GIRLS! lol

I was almost the same, but I wanted to break away from myself. I used to be a very adventurous guy who wouldn't give a 2nd thought to jumping out of a plane. The bike helped my escape the person I'd become with all the compromises I'd made for this person and ways I allowed her to treat me. I'd never go down that track again and the bike helps me keep that in check.

 

Heck I look at it and laugh now. If she didn't cheat on me and treat me like crap, I wouldn't be going away in 3 weeks time to do a motorcycle tour of Taiwan. It's funny how things work out in the end...and it all started with a ring :p

You will be so happy in a better relationship, you will not care a bit that your ex won't know. But then you never know....

 

Some day you may run into him, or he may see you out in public holding hands with someone else and looking very happy. Even if you think he doesn't know, it's possible that he will know when the time comes.

bitterness is a turnoff

Have you been dumped by text and had a cruel ex laugh at you?

Oh believe me, even when you think they're not keeping tabs on you, they are. They're gonna hear about the improvements you've made.

I doubt it, we have no mutual friends anymore and I don't have facebook.
