Why am I p!ssed now? vent

I was very angry about my ex and the way he treated me and that he moved on with a new girlfriend the week after he moved out. It's a year this week that he moved out. I've been over the anger for a while now and we are friendly with each other. Even survived the holidays without a problem. I would never ever want to be back with him. But....

I'm kinda pissed about Valentine's day and his gf. He never did anything for me for V-day. Never sent flowers. NOTHING. Always just said it was a made up holiday.  Never really anything special for anniversary or birthdays. This year he conveniently have the v-day week off and they're going to a concert. 90% of the time I'm glad he has a gf because that means he leaves me alone and he can annoy someone else but dammit I deserved some attention while I put up with him too.

  • You are absolutely allowed to be pissed! But you know what? He's just putting his best self forward right now. *Everyone* does that when they're first with someone - they pull out all the good stuff, and save the rest of it for later.  Sooner or later, I can guarantee you he'll go back to his old self.  It all comes out eventually.

    That.  What do they say?   A leopard never changes his spots?  She'll see the real him, if she sticks around long enough.

  • That sucks, but I agree with the PPs. His true colors will "shine" eventually...

  • I would totally be pissed too. But I also agree with PP--he's on his best behavior, and soon enough he'll be treating her like crap too.
