Or what are some of the worst things that have been said to you?

 

I have recently said some hurtful, harsh, honest, true, and blunt things to my ex during a heated argument. I regret some of the things I said-whether true or not-what are some things you have said to an ex? Things you regret and things you don't. Do you believe it is ever justified?

 

Just curious...

And then i said

"it's not you, it's me"

8y later i was dumped with exactly the same things...

I told her she was full of sh*t and told a friend that thats the ex whom cant keep her legs shut,she heard me too,i was drunk,hurting,angry etc but its no excuse,i said those a while ago and did oppologise for it. Its best never to say anything because it just causes more pain and anger.

I told my ex I wanted to kick him in the face with spikey shoes..... I did, and I still do, and if I could I would.

I told him he'd end up like his mom and brother he keeps complaining about, but hey at least he'd still have the gym right?

 

My ex has a tendency not to make stuff happen and just complain about it. That morning he didn't want to get out of bed, again.

Life is not made of just the good stuff, paying bills and doing dishes is part of the deal, that's one of the things that drove me nuts.

 

I still regret telling him that, it was unnecessary.

 

The worst thing that was told to me? Probably nothing. Nothing might be worse than something. Like the feeling that someone doesn't bother with you enough to tell you anything.

I blasted my ex for being a horrible mother. She was, I just handled it terribly wrong. There is a quote I read once that said "at any given point in someone's life, they are doing the best that they can do". She was screwing up, but she needed support more than criticism. This one really bothers me.

That's funny that's what I thought to myself too, I should have showed support, not criticism.

Imagine how you would feel if he was telling everyone you were the reason he's an alcoholic!

I wouldn't care if it was the truth, which its not. He did a lot of mean and unnecessary things to me so that being the worst thing I said to him, I'm okay with that.

Alcoholics only have one person to blame, themselves. And what you said is hardly a mean thing.

My last words since NC were "I hope in your searching you find your way back to me". Then I stole a kiss and left. I haven't talked to her since. I wish I hadn't done it. I handed her the proverbial keys to my heart. I might as well have said "come back whenever you want, I have no self respect". But the fact is I do, and lots of it. I feel as though I strengthened her resolve about the whole thing & lost her forever because I wanted another chance so bad.

 

That's the worst thing I could have said. I wish I had expressed more anger & hurt, I think it would have shown more dignity.

That's probably the best thing she's heard from someone, keep in mind she probably won't hear something like that again. So in a way, you win.

 

You kept your dignity by not showing anger, that's way better. I know you don't see it that way, but it's true. Throwing a "you b****" at someone and slam the door on the way out is not the best way to end up things.

Caring and having a heart isn't weakness. If that is how she views it, you are better off finding someone who doesn't see it like she does.

They hate me. They don't like nice people like me.

I don't know if that's necessarily how she views it. That's just how it feels at the moment. I know it could have been worse... I guess.
