PSA: When exes reach out over two years later, it’s not because they truly care about you.

gutsandgorey · 2020-08-20T23:46:46+00:00

The kind of pain that kneads at your heart like an old man baking his whole life would.

What the fuck is that line lmao. Why do men think they're poetic?

jo_ferreira · 2020-08-20T23:31:31+00:00

Men get off on the idea of causing you pain. It’s why saying they have offended you has the opposite effect it should. Saying they’re boring, however, that truly gets them riled up.

By the way, this is the guy who was cheating on me with this girl, ghosted me, and left me an apartment of his furniture to clear out by myself.

juliannawackenhat · 2020-08-20T23:34:03+00:00

What an asshole. I know we aren’t supposed to wish harm upon those who have wronged us, but damn... this reminds me of that song I Hope by Gabby Barrett.

And I hope whoever received this message was strong enough to ignore it.

smittydoodle · 2020-08-20T23:54:03+00:00

Jfc this person is an absolute leech

ieatrainbowsprinkles · 2020-08-21T00:15:33+00:00

This dude has the self awareness of a fucking tree stump.

giftofnocondemnation · 2020-08-20T23:45:14+00:00

Asshole is calling you cold and dead inside. All that bullshit was just to insult you.

yggiwtmiih · 2020-08-21T02:15:09+00:00

"i DuNNo dOeSN't mAtTeR."

...are you 12?

Mulkvistee · 2020-08-21T00:51:10+00:00

I got one of these years ago when I was married and freaking pregnant for Christ's sake. After an old mutual friend told him I was pregnant he decided to find me on FB after not speaking for years and get maudlin and pathetic in a message. I read the first paragraph and just cackled like a unhinged maniac before blocking.

They really think we're going to try and put them back together forever. Humpty Dumpty can kiss my ass, ain't nobody got time for that 💅

throwawaynevermindit · 2020-08-21T04:13:58+00:00

It actually really weirds me out the way men want to go on and on about all the pain and damage they caused you in their "apologies." There's just something so egotistical about it. Not to underplay the trauma shitty male behavior causes, because it does. But even so, guys that feel the need to write apology letters like this are 9/10 just hurdles that women trip over then learn to jump over on their way to being cooler and better people.

Imagine if you were a track and field champion and the guy who overtook you running across the playground in 1st grade and yelled "haha I beat you!!!" when you didn't even realize it was a race, emailed you semi-regularly to remind you of that time they were faster than you.

Same vibes.

Fuck I might have felt put out at the time but obviously the whole thing meant more to you than to me in some weird way, you don't see me going out of my way to bring it up randomly years later lmao.

KetoKittenAround · 2020-08-21T00:35:51+00:00

I’m truly laughing at this scrotes pathetic attempt to be deep. It is... exquisite in its total banality.

Good show my man! Good show!

🤣

PS wahhhhh like you give a crap. He must think your world was allllll about him (maybe you found this somewhere ... so the person who had this sent to them)

GlobalDynamicsEureka · 2020-08-21T01:39:05+00:00

Calm down, Pillsbury. Don't knead that doughy heart too hard.

sher0355 · 2020-08-21T00:33:17+00:00

Absolutely disgusting. The PS is what got me. 🤮

But you know what? You're a stone-cold Queen 💅

AquaRetro · 2020-08-21T01:15:45+00:00

I'm pretty freaking sure your pain is well healed if you ever felt it at all. He loves to think that you're in the gutter with him. Hell no.

80081E5_96_420 · 2020-08-21T02:54:42+00:00

This made me uncomfortable and it's not even aimed at me. So sorry OP.

miloba_ · 2020-08-21T02:23:03+00:00

Well, +1 point for realizing you’re wasting her time. You’re still at -100 for literally everything else in this garbage word salad.

vmuzondi · 2020-08-21T03:00:53+00:00

This made me cringe so hard🥴

samarsharqi · 2020-08-21T05:31:11+00:00

“Doesn’t matter” is the only smart thing he said. You don’t matter, dickhead. Now leave OP the queen alone.

StrainingMyNeurons · 2020-08-21T06:48:18+00:00

Sign him up to a local bakery’s newsletter or to a bread baking interest group.

Pahapan · 2020-08-21T02:35:35+00:00

Oh my God. Thank you for the much needed laugh. 😂😂😂

Scotsburd · 2020-08-21T05:51:19+00:00

Aww, did he get dumped? Too bad, so sad...

ShieldMaidenLagertha · 2020-08-21T06:19:09+00:00

It would have been really funny if you had responded: Who is this?

And then just pretend you don’t even remember your relationship. He is clearly overestimating his importance. 😂

enchantedglow · 2020-08-21T09:41:51+00:00

These men need to get a diary 😂 or better yet therapy because we don’t care

scarl_charl · 2020-08-21T04:40:30+00:00

God, so fucking cringy. 🤮

zecountess · 2020-08-21T05:23:17+00:00

Oh my GOD this is a novel

q----q · 2020-08-21T05:31:37+00:00

ughhhh needed to see this so badly a couple months ago

0kfornow · 2020-08-21T12:40:27+00:00

What a load of manipulative trash.

balladwilds · 2020-08-21T13:01:02+00:00

lmaooo PATHETIC leave his ass in read

Psychicleta · 2020-08-21T03:04:48+00:00

Block. Ignore.

that_alienbitch · 2020-08-21T11:43:46+00:00

I would've messaged back 'good lol ' and then block him so he can't respond
