polger Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 (edited) Here are my ten and I hope others can contribute. 1. You know your relationship wasn't perfect, you can now find somebody that doesn't have the flaws your ex has. 2. You will realize that he/she really wasn't the right person for you, he/she was not the one, now you are one step closer to finding him/her. 3. You can finally start making time for you, take up an old hobby you had to sacrifice or start a new one. 4. You can finally get into shape and start looking after your body. 5.You are not restricted by your ex's pickiness, sure you had your favorite spots to go to, but now you can discover all the places he/she did not want to go to. 6. You now have more time for other relationships, meet with friends and family to fill your time. 7. You are free to move, if your ex was holding you to a particular place, now is the time to pick up and move to another city, state, country, whatever. You can now go wherever you want to go. 8. Towards the end of your relationship you probably noticed something was not right. Now you don't have to worry about if he/she is wanting to end things, you can breath a sigh of relief. It's only up from here. 9. Maybe you lost yourself in the relationship, now is the time to discover the real you and not the version of you your ex wanted you to be. 10. In time, you won't care if you ever see your ex again. Do you think about your previous ex's much, I bet you can't even remember some significant details about them. One more for luck. 11. You did everything you could for your ex, they did not appreciate it, now you can put more time into something or somebody that deserves it. Your ex doesn't deserve you if they can't recognize you for who you are. They broke up with you because they were not happy, there is nothing you could have done to make them happy. Take pride in the fact that you felt complete enough to share your life, your ex on the other hand did not. Even if they left you for another person, they are only running from themselves.

Vel Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 (edited) This is kind of freakishly accurate, everything but the moving out part completely applied to me, BTW #11 should be really up there, definitely tugged at the heartstrings Thanks Edited October 3, 2013 by Vel
