So, what was the best thing about your ex? Let’s dive into some nostalgia and share our favorite memories! π #RelationshipRewind
The dating experience. I now know what I want out of a relationship, how to be a better partner, and what I donβt want out of a partner. He also cheated on me, and we were a very on and off again couple, so now I know how to and how not to handle a break up. I did a shit job than but now Iβm a pro. My ex and I are opposites, so I really donβt know why we dated.
He’s a man with integrity, respect and dignity. I like those qualities very much.
My ex was a phenomenal gift giver. Not just to me, to everyone in his life.
He wasn’t always a good person, but his ability to see into your life and know the perfect thing you’d want was uncanny.
He is so good looking! And a great kisser. Sadly he is too honest and told me he wouldn’t be able to be faithful lol
The genuine love between us that has stayed constant throughout all these years.. The way he lit up every room he entered. ALWAYS kept me safe. The sense of home I felt in his presence. His sense of humor. The list goes onβ€οΈ
He had a very sweet, fluffy and friendly cat
Miaow π±
the best thing about my ex was the sex was off the charts. i took sex off the table just to see if we really even had a connection and we didn’t so we broke up
He was super sweet, kind, and so romantic. He just knew what to say to get the butterflies in my stomach going. He was also very confident and really enjoyed that about him.
He was an asshole but his humour, vibe and energy that matched mine was why I liked him at the time lol
My ex was actually so nice. He was kind, funny, and heard me out all the time. He also respected my boundaries. I ended things after 3 weeks or so because I wasnβt attracted to him in that way but now we are back to being really good friends and he still is all of the above. I just wasnβt attracted to him that way.
When I didint knew she existed.
No one is a more loving, caring and compassionate father than my ex-husband. On this, our first Mother’s day apart, he picked up me and my daughter at my condo and took us to a delightful brunch.
Despite our differences he’s a good person through and through.
She looked good naked but that’s about it.
The sex. It was insane like our bodies were made for each other
Him eating me out
Lying. He lied so hard he himself believed it. Made me feel like I was in the sky at the moment
He was really stable- financially and in terms of predictability. He also had a big heart for kids.
Unfortunately, the sexβ¦.. itβs been 11 months since our break up & still thinking about it βΉοΈ
He thought I was really hot and always looked at me like he had genuinely won the lottery. But we werenβt meant to be, and my current partner also treats me that way. Iβm much happier now.
I love his bold personality and how unafraid he is to be himself. He made me feel really good about myself and knew exactly how to respond to me when I was struggling with my mental health. He was a really great boyfriend we just wouldnβt have worked out in the long run because of differing values and life goals
He was extroverted. I could take him anywhere or introduce him to new people, and he’d get along just fine, I never had to worry about him having a good time.
Ehh not much. The only thing I can say is we were semi long distance (over an hour apart while both in school full time and working), and we never fought at all when we’re together in person. He also messaged me out of the blue years after we’d broken up to say that I had been a good girlfriend. Yeah, I know, and too little too late- but still nice of him I guess.
Last ex: He was cute and cooked for me
Last last ex: He was also cute and very gentlemen then crazy passionate in bed
That heβs now in my past. He was abusive and toxic and I hope heβs alone and not hurting anyone else right now.
He was really good with people. I was an introvert, he was the one who understood that quick.
He was my best friend. We shared the same sense of humor. I loved listening to him talk about mythology and history, especially when we were traveling together. We were adventurous but also loved being lazy and cosy together at home. Being with him felt safe, like it was meant to be. Two puzzle pieces that just clicked.
He left me after 16 years in a way that I cannot forgive, but I will always cherish the time when he made me happy.
Heβs far away from me!
He was kind, thoughtful and considerate
3 Exes:
1 (High School): Our humor styles were very compatible and we just clicked, personality-wise. Not long term compatible, but we’ve remained friends over the years.
2 (HS/College): Echoing another user – that I never have to see him again, but I will say I learned what I *didn’t* want in a relationship and became more fearless out of response of never going back to who I was when I was with him.
3 (College): He was sweet, funny, a nerd. He gave me the idea of what I was ultimately looking for, even if it wasn’t quite him.
He genuinely loved me and I him. Never had that experience with anyone else before. It was nice to know that someone actually loved you and cared. It was a hard break up
He always came up with this silly and funny takes about nearly everything. Always made me laugh.
Nothing. Why heβs my ex. Sometimes you are with someone and realize you made a very bad choice. Lol
All my exes are wonderful humans. Otherwise, Iβd have never dated them.
Funny, fun, generous (unfortunately also had another side that was AFWUL).
heβs a POS by all means but he was hilarious and made the corniest jokes i also loved laying next to him all the time was good kisser and the sex was amazing i truly loved that man
-We shared same humour which is rarely for me
-He is very kind to others
-He is funny
-He is a loving person
-He is ambitious
A lot of other things and yes, Iβm still in love with him
he truly was a POS, but he never told me a lie. He would be hurtful with the truth yes, but it was ALWAYS the truth. I can’t recall a single lie he ever told me to be honest in 5 1/2 years. That just wasn’t him.
Sex
3 Exes
1: Really generous
2. The Life of the Party! He was smart, good looking, had so much style and was a passionate Lover. Unvortunatly he was a manchild who didnt took responsibility for anything or anyone.
3. Beautiful Piano player, very smart
He’s really fun to be around. Which is why we remain friends.
Incredibly smart and hardworking. He was like sunshine…Wherever he went, ppl smiled. Very helpful, joyful and bright. A very good friend and a great person over all.
The best thing about my ex, is that he’s my ex, and I don’t have to talk to or see him ever again.
I (45f) have two exes:
Ex husband is a dedicated father.
Ex bf is consistently emotionally available.
I donβt want any more children, but would love to see my current partner become more emotionally available. He is working on it with a therapist.
I’ll give you my 3 big exes.
* High School Ex: was exceedingly kind and incredibly smart but in a way that wasn’t show boaty. I always remember him lending a helping hand to people who were struggling in classes and was really generous with his time. We’ve kept in touch over the years and he’s gone on to do some really incredible things and that same generous spirit is still a constant.
* University Ex: playful and adventurous. Was always down to try something new and was a good sport even if it wasn’t something they were particularly interested in doing.
* Mid Twenties Ex: … this one is tough cause he really wasn’t super nice to me upon reflection but I guess I’ll say that it was nice that he had unconventional hobbies he was wanting to share with me. Do I care about warhammer? No. But it was interesting to learn about it and how it brought him, his brother and his dad together when his parents separated.
