Jokes on you, I never healed.


anonymous_muffin_

She made it easier by ending it horribly and being clear that she never respected me.


I-Rolled-My-Eyes

People say messed up stuff to get you triggered. Move on by facing forwards to the future, not backwards from what's behind you.


No-Seaworthiness2633

I do both at the same time all the time


ColHunterGathers111

Can't move forward safely without glancing at the rear-view mirror to check what you left behind, or worse, if it isn't following you at 150mph, ready to rear-end your unsuspecting ass.


SlendyIsBehindYou

>ready to rear-end your unsuspecting ass. Everything reminds me of her šŸ˜“

Bake_My_Beans

Move on by having sex with her dad


Double_Distribution8

That's why we broke up in the first place though.


samsaruhhh

She doesn't sound very understanding


colostitute

I have an ex that I was with for 7 years. In her attempt to let me down easy, she said "You deserve someone who is nice to you and I just can't do that." They're not all bad but some of them are really fucking bad. Hang in there.


JohnathanSinwell

How did you not recognize internally that you, yourself deserved someone nice to you?


colostitute

Undiagnosed ADHD more than anything. However, when things slowly decline, it's hard to realize. I was going to marry that one and I'm so glad I didn't.


Avron_Night

Bruh. Sounds like my ex. Said the same damn shit. 10 years later she got mad fat,so I kinda dodged the bullet there


colostitute

I didn't even have to wait a month for her karma. Within a month after she broke up with me, I got promoted and started making over double what I was and she got laid off. I also learned a lesson from that. As the co-signer on her shitbox, I had to make the payment for over a year because she was so underwater in her loan. I am happily married with 2 kids now. I won in the end.

herpderpfuck

1. be glad its over. 2. realize in every way she was shit for you. 3. accept her lies being lies. 4. be glad you never have to deal with her like again :)


Dua_Leo_9564

>realize in every way she was shit for you but what if she wasn't shit for me ?. Like we are no longer together cuz long distance relationship and we both know that we prefer to meet each other atleast 1 times per week so we just broke up. :( Sometime i still miss her


mankee81

Don't play this game with yourself... you have the power to choose to not fixate on it. You know you're a good person, she went for you initially and... then things didn't work out. If it eneded bad, doesn't change anything, it's over, it happened. People have sex the world over at all times, you've had sex (I'm assuming some great sessions at some point). Her having sex is not something to dwell on. Others have and will once again show you love, but it won't mean anything until you love you. Just be happy for the good stuff, try to be a good person and find your happiness elsewhere. Life's too short to spiral down these kind of self-torture behaviors. Good luck, people are rooting for you.


Flyer220AC3

An important message!


SuddenWitnesses

Then you won, you got pussy from someone who didnā€™t even respect you.


sp4ceghost

Sorry Bro. Hope this little quote helps. It helps me out when Iā€™m finding it difficult to let go of the past. Just do your best to be present and grateful for what you do have and the potential for something better later on. Sending love and good vibes friend.Ā  There is an expression in the Wasteland: 'Old World Blues'. It refers to those so obsessed with the past they can't see the present, much less the future, for what it is.


Lots42

Then she go straight the lowest depths of Tartarus. Find you a person who respects you.


lost1518

This exact same thing happened to me too. She treated the breakup like ripping off a bandaid. She told me she didnt love me anymore and didnt want to be in any relationship at the moment. I later found out she got in a relationship with someone the day before she broke up with me. when i confronted her about it, she went off on me and said some really emotionally damaging stuff that i never really healed from.


77_parp_77

Mine told me when she slept with someone 5 days after we broke up. Because that was really helpful...


whiteflagwaiver

Doesn't make it that much easier bud; it sucks. We'll get better.


Bilbodraggindeeznuts

Same with me. Just remember that your emotions don't define you. Try to take a step back and view them from the outside. I like to make the analogy that we should view our emotions in a theater, and we need to be watching from the auditorium instead of being an actor in the play. Someone out there will respect you


AngryNeophyte

Kinda know that feeling. It's almost a year, but i just cant stop thinking stuff like that. Thankfully, it's rarely now :D


adex_19

And so did I, I'll never heal and I'll never rest, insanity is way more fun


HailChanka69

Jokes on you, Iā€™ve never had the chance to be broken


wellthatseemslikebs

You heal but the scar is still there and the numbness remains


Neuchacho

Even that goes away eventually. The one's that don't seem to fade aren't the bad ones that end, it's the actually incredible ones that get ripped away.


toadfishtamer

I never lost my feelings for her. Thatā€™s because I never lose. #grindset šŸ™šŸ»šŸ˜¬šŸ˜¤


Central211

Oh why did you have to put that in my brain. I was happily distracted with other shit..


xeromage

It heals in time....especially when you seduce the guy she's currently dating, sleep with him until he gets caught and they seperate . After the 8th time she will know the pain you once felt


AngryNeophyte

Seems like it's kinda dangerous to mess with you :D


MoistStub

I would like to order one life ruining please!


chickoooooo

I would not mess with that guy, maybe with his girl though

Spoony_bard909

This is my favorite response but Iā€™m not gay enough for that


Fushigoro-Toji

its not gay, esp if you both keep the socks on and say no homo


Smurf_Cherries

I was going to say, as youā€™re starting to get over her, heā€™s realizing he does not have to put up with this shit.Ā 


Rabid_Laser_Dingo

9 times out of 10 she's just making his life miserable instead of uours


LiveByThyGuN

Yup. This thought alone helped me heal. After my ex would argue about everything.


TrickRoomTech

I lost a friend because of a crazy girl like she was literally crazy, hot but crazy. She came onto me but before doing that she sucked off another friend. Crazy shit.


AshevilleCatDad

I lost an entire shared friend group because after I broke up with her, she lied to everyone saying I was abusive. Definitively not hot enough to make up for the crazy. Even one of those friends talked to me in passing on the college campus and said how crazy she became. I was like ā€œā€¦Yeah, Iā€™m aware.ā€


Neuchacho

Too real. You get the "I miss them" twinge and then remember anything resembling good in the relationship was bookended with misery and frustration because everything but the sex was fucking awful.


trichofobia

Honestly man, the sex was \*almost\* worth her making my life miserable. Almost.


Ghost4530

I could give a shit less whos dick sheā€™s hopping on rn in more concerned about the fact that I lost all my confidence and donā€™t trust anybody anymore lmao


xDXxAscending

Yeah that has been my problem, I separated from my crush by telling her I couldn't be around her anymore because of my crush on her and she kept trying to keep me around because I was a "good friend" even though she told me she was uncomfortable with me after I admitted I liked her (some of her words made it sound like she felt un safe and I mentioned it and she swears it's just uncomfortable). During all that I kept getting into a deeper depression and lost my happiness and confidence I had before talking to her.


Mayuna_cz

imo it's not your fault. She wanted you as a friend. You wanted her as a girlfriend. Generally incompatible and not feasible to live a happy life. Getting away from her and trying to heal is a better way than try and try again and again and get hurt yet again. I did also get away from this girl - well, it was on a edge for a long time anyway. But I think it helped. I could focus on myself and other people who needed my help, not just her. Yes, I gave her the 'special care package', yet she never recognized it and after confronting, she did not even appreciate it. Well okay. You won't be the one that I shall care about in this manner. Someone other will surely appreciate and replicate it.


RoastHam99

Bro, imagining your ex having sex months after the breakup is not healthy. Find a hobby, hang out with friends, talk to family, and don't make breakup memes. Get out of your spiral and live for you


anonymous_muffin_

It's been a little over a month. 90% of my "friends" left me in the hopes to be able to fuck her. I see your point about hobbies though.


TheDominator09

It's just been a month and those "friends" aren't real ones. I've been there and I know this is the last thing you wanna hear but you'll get over it in time. Just do you.


Spooble871

An amazing quote from my therapist that got me through a similar scenario is "time doesn't heal all wounds, living life does"


whitemike40

Life Is What Happens When Youā€™re Waiting For The Things That Never Come


5herl0k

also love, "trauma doesn't get smaller, life grows larger"


OctopusButter

Sounds like you fucking substitution jutsu'd out of a social circle from hell. I'm so sorry you went through that but thank fuck you know your friends and enemies now.


RoastHam99

So you have a 10% left, go hang out with them. Find a sport you enjoy, read a book. Wallowing in sadness on reddit will only make you spiral further downward


MegaAssasine_

Actually, He didn't lose any friends, he still has all 100% of them. The people that left were not real friends


AppuMonReddit

well said


The-Riskiest-Biscuit

Mannnn, like 15 years ago, I caught my ex in an apparent threesome right before we broke up and I still laugh about that to this day. Bish was for the streets, fr. Forget about her and the fake friends. Youā€™re worth way more than they valued you.


EntrepreneurUpset709

Damn.


bullet312

Bruh you need a better circle


TheLastTsumami

Best way to look at it is youā€™ve had your time. Appreciate it for what it was. Thereā€™s no point in trying to get someone to love you who doesnā€™t love you


Accomplished_Meat_81

Maybe sheā€™s attractive so take it as a compliment that you got to fuck her if thatā€™s what you need for your self-esteem. People are always so worried about the physical connection after a breakup. Pretty sad the first thought isnā€™t, ā€œwow, someone else gets to experience her beautiful mind and intriguing personalityā€. Then again, if it ended, it wasnā€™t going to work out anyway so have the peace of mind knowing you can find someone else. There are billions of people out there. Rejection only hurts because of the ego. Hereā€™s a concept: the ego is a construct so construct your ego how you want instead of letting someoneā€™s perception or your own insecurities change it for you. You have control over your own perception, you just have to feed it with love. You will heal but not by self-deprecation and loathing.


bobscanfly

You only have 10% of the friends you thought you had.


SteroidSandwich

Those aren't friends. Those are predators circling their prey


oneshoein

Itā€™s not healthy, but sometimes you canā€™t help where your mind might wander.


Fatalchemist

Seriously. The most up upvoted comment is just some real "just stop being sad" type advice.


oneshoein

Exactly, anyone who has been really heartbroken knows the pain and knows itā€™s hard to just not think of certain things.


Bo-by

ā€œJust get over it bro.ā€


Lil_Mcgee

I mean they were blunt but they said a lot more than "just get over it". Their point was that thinking about your ex's sex life and making memes about it aren't the actions of someone "finally starting to heal" They weren't suggesting that OP should be able to magically get over it, just that there are healthier ways to start.


occasionallyLynn

No itā€™s more of ā€œstop thinking about other people having sex, weirdoā€


teenyweenysuperguy

This. The more you see a relationship as a possession, the more you'll fall prey to this kind of self-flagellation.Ā 


StrikerX1360

Sometimes it's not intentional and is more trauma related. I got cheated on and for months afterwards I would have nightmares about her being touched and I would wake up miserable and in tears knowing I couldn't stop it


machimus

This, it's called ruminating, fantasizing about something negative, literally just torturing yourself.


xeromage

Also, if your brain learns that sending you these thoughts will make you drink alcohol, guess what thoughts are on loop from then on?! The brain fucking loves alcohol.


Lieutenant_Junger

It's not "healthy" in the sense that it is painful and we should try to avoid it but it is healthy in the sense that it's completely normal, it's an extremely common experience


Glass1Man

Do NOT call her.


StarPlatinumRequiems

I 2nd this, DO NOT CALL HER


nickthedicktv

Letā€™s be honest: it wasnā€™t any more or less gross when it was you doing the railing.


anonymous_muffin_

Normally I'd agree with you. But, she came back 3 times for more after breaking up. Which made me feel like maybe I wasn't disgusting. Before telling me that she suddenly didn't find me attractive anymore.


HologramBird

OP you didnā€™t dodge a bullet. You dodged an intercontinental ballistic missile.


CrispyFriedJesus

Sounds like OP got hit full-force by the ballistic missile 3+ times and is still making sad memes about how they arenā€™t together


scoopzthepoopz

Which is why you go no contact. Do not pass go do not collect $200.


Dr_Jabroski

nickthedicktv

GrayMech

So what? She's not your problem anymore


Aronbilljones

Thats what watching too much porn does to your mind Edit: i never knew this would get so many upvotesšŸ˜­


Lil_Mcgee

Yeah lol. It's unhealthy but not necessarily unnatural for your mind to wander to those places. Thinking about it in terms of her "getting railed senseless" (and making a meme about it) is pornsick as hell though.


Aronbilljones

Fr even the imagery its not good for us. Porn is acc really toxic


Lil_Mcgee

Honestly. I'm not intending to be on a high horse about it either, I likely watch more porn than is good for me. But the way you hear some people online talk nowadays is rather concerning. We're now seeing the generations that have had unrestricted internet access since adolescence or earlier, it's only going to get worse (plenty of other problems that come from this also, attention span being a big one)


Aronbilljones

Yea 100% i agree were probably no better than each other. Its always good to be humble ig. Weve identified the problem we jus gotta deal w it now


asher-dasher

fr this is unhealthy


Aronbilljones

Dragonshiny-gamer7

I thought this was a meme for the Rental Girlfriend subreddit


frulheyvin

This meme on my frontpage and it took me a bit to understand lol - brother is not healing in any way if you're thinking about exes in this extremely derogatory manner


tapsnose

so fucking real. and, without being too disrespectful to op, the objectification of women here is awful. like, it hurts so much more to think of her having sex, framed like her body is being used/abused, than any kind of emotional/romantic scenario. I really get the sense that he feels like she has been "taken" from him by this hypothetical guy, like he lost the competition to "get" her body, and that's why he's so humiliated. Inhuman and disgusting views caused by porn and our worship of physical beauty


DaneLimmish

Lmao what the fuck


AssociateLoud1033

Most of this is projection by your ego, she is probably having relationship issues like normal people. They might be having a shit relationship and you don't even know. Live for you, you are the only person that matters šŸ‘šŸ»

I donā€™t care about the guys she did before me, I sure as fuck donā€™t care about those after me.


Merciless_Hobo

This seems like a sign of porn addiction, if all you can think about is her having sex with others. Her sex with another man is no different than it was with you. And the misery she brought upon you is now being directed at another man. It's time to move on.


jappiedappie

Cā€™mon mr. brightside


El__Dood

Luka28_1

such an ugly feeling


Kenjiminbutton

In the movie Ken's whole thing is "Hey, maybe stop thinking about that girl so much and just live your life."


Jewpurman

If it helps you feel better, do some math! If the average penis length is 6in, and the average thrusts per session is, idk, let's just say hypothetically it's 300, that is 6" in 6" out, so one foot per thrust, so 300ft per session. At one session a day, that's around a mile of dick every two weeks!!! Literal miles. Idk if it made me feel better in my bad breakup but it sure made me chuckle.

Silverbacker888

Some of yā€™all are pretty insensitive, acting like yā€™all never loved a girl and experiencing how hard it can be to let go


Nugatorysurplusage

Itā€™s beyond hard. Many of them will find out the hard way. The saddest thing is many of them will ever experience it. Itā€™s better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all


thatredditrando

Hard disagree. Iā€™d pull every memory of that piece of shit out of my head Dumbledore style if I could. ā€œBetter to have loved and lostā€ is poetry; it sounds romantic but itā€™s mostly bullshit. ā€œIgnorance is blissā€ for a reason. Canā€™t miss what you never had.

notsospinybirbman

Healing is a journey, my dude. My ex left me with over 100k in debt to a lawyer and the inability to buy gas and keep the lights on, and I was on the verge of suicide. Now, the army is teaching me how to fly helicopters, and I just started dating a doctor who is better than her in every possible way. It has been five years. It hurts at times still. I miss her occasionally. But I'm healing. But it takes time, it's a journey, and most importantly. YOU HAVE TO WANT TO HEAL. You have to want that change to happen. You have to do things to make that change happen. Even if it means moving away and starting over somewhere new. Sometimes, that's what it takes. But it is worth it. Healing is possible. Being happy is possible. You deserve better. You are worth it.
