Treasa Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Mine ACTED like he was all that, and for a while I drank the Kool-Aid. But once I shook free of the spell, I realized how completely ridiculous he could be. He wasn't this awesome, incredible man I thought he was just a week prior! Let me give you an example. In his last substantial email to me, when I asked if we could ever try again, he started off by writing, "I've been working with words longer than I've been an adult." His whole email was one big lofty, self-important pile of crap. He's been working with words longer than he's been an adult?? Wow, me too! And I bet you have, too! In fact, I think it's fair to say that most of us learned how words functioned when we were tykes. Now when I think of that statement, I literally can't stop laughing. Later in the same email he talks about how most people can't connect with the world the way he can. He gives the example of how he'll be driving at night with the windows down and the stereo blaring, and he'll just feel at one with the world. Mind you, he's never been further than Las Vegas, and we live in Wisconsin, and he hated that trip. But yeah. He's at one with the world because he can drive with the windows down and the music blasting. Are you f'ing kidding me?? We've ALL done that! I'm sure the tribal people in Africa really appreciate how in touch we are with them when we do that, too. I'm sure they throw a big party over how attuned we are to them every time we do that. God, my ex is such an idiot. And there's a decent chance that yours is, too. Someday you'll realize it, I promise. And if your ex isn't an idiot, and it just wasn't meant to be, you'll realize that instead, and you'll be happy you didn't end up with him/her. And by some chance the problem actually IS you, then you need to start looking inside, or you'll never be happy with anyone. I've identified my issues. Largely they're insecurity and anxiety. Otherwise, I'm a pretty swell person! He just wasn't the right person for me. And that's cool. I always have me, and given how swell I am, that thrills the hell out of me. Just give it some thought. 4 Link to post Share on other sites

cookie2 Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 "I've been working with words longer than I've been an adult." He doesn't sound like he's been an adult very long! If at all!! He gives the example of how he'll be driving at night with the windows down and the stereo blaring, and he'll just feel at one with the world. Sounds like he's been taking some recreational pharmaceuticals... Thanks for the story, I needed it tonight. And nobmagnet... love the name Link to post Share on other sites
bonpaw2008 Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 You are such my twin! Love those comparisions.....and someone as fabulous as you deserves someone that has been working on words since he was an infant Some things that I always loved about my ex and their translations: Life of the party = alcoholic Fun to be with = immature and alcoholic Cuddly = fat Good personality = moody, boring Free spirit = no ambition, threatened by my success thanks T that was fun Link to post Share on other sites
