I really need to get a lot of things off my chest so please bear with me.
Ok here goes. Last year my ex girlfriend and I broke up, and she was the one who ended it by sending me a letter. This letter was full of insults, which in my mind were totally uncalled for. I could just about handle the insults directed at me, but she also insulted my family. The insults aimed at my family hurt me a lot, and I pointed this out to her. Did she care? Of course not. Anyway, after a few weeks, she called me, totally out of the blue. She acted as if nothing had happened, and asked what I was up to. I said that I had decided not to take up my place at University/College and was planning to go in 2005 instead. She laughed at me and said she thought I had more ambition than that, and that I'll do nothing with my life. She also went on to mention how wonderful her new life was at University and how she had been meeting, and sleeping with loads of new guys. 'Fair enough' I thought to myself, 'she's trying to wind me up, just ignore it.' So after we finished talking I decided to ignore her.
Occasionally I would get the odd text message off her. These included the following comments; 'Well I had another date with Jon today, we slept together four times. Call me now. Another one was; 'You are a sad t**t, you will never go to university and if you did you will be a failure.' What was her problem I thought to myself? Not only had she gloated that she was the one who ended our relationship and insulted my family, she also had to say that her life was so much better than mine. I'm a very sensitive guy, and after a while these insults caused me to doubt myself. I understand that the simple thing to do would be to ignore her, but I just couldn't. So I decided to fight fire with fire and point out her faults. All that did was add fuel to the fire. I think the comments I made hit a nerve, so I have to admit that even though I was childish, it was satisfying to fight back and stand up for myself.
Anyway, in recent weeks, the only contact I've had with her is through messenger, and it has become blatantly obvious that the only reason she ever wants to speak with me is to taunt me by implying that I am worthless. I simply told her that I have been offered a place at three different universities. Not bad for someone would never get to Uni, is it? To which said that she was planning to emigrate the country with someone she only met 5 months ago once she had finished university. I don't know whether or not she was being serious, and quite frankly I don't care, but I do believe that she can't accept that I have made plans and have moved on with my life without her. I don't think she can handle that.
Finally, I would just like to say that this girl, at the age of 22, has been pregnant twice, engaged twice, slept with roughly 150 men and is a very heavy drinker. She kept all of this from me until we got together. We hardly ever speak these days, but a part of me really wants to throw all of her insults back in her face. Gain some sort of revenge for insulting my family. I figured that the best way to do this was to prove her wrong by accomplishing the things she said I would never be able to. Rather than getting involved in a slanging match which is quite frankly childish. What do you guys think?
