Is life better or worse without your ex around?

[msc545]

When the ex leaves, sometimes it's a relief, and at other times you miss the ex terribly. Which is it for you?

I miss my ex a lot.

I'm really glad my ex is gone. It's a big relief.

My ex-wife was a narcissist, constantly lied, constantly blaming others, unable to admit fault. I don't miss her. I do miss a woman I was with for a few years after that.

Sounds like you and I have the same ex. Who knew?

Relief

neither... not because of them

my exes were, and are absolutely wonderful human beings and, we had our times back then... more than an ugly breakup, we just moved on mutual understanding, especially with the ones I met during school days as we were too young to consider a life-time together before we grew up

so, my life "after them" wasn't exactly tied to "my life is over" or "my life is not a nightmare anymore" nope... my life is what I make of it, not what others make it for me (thus so far)

with that being said though... and although I don't really have any complaints about being single, life is much more better when you sharing with someone... 100%

There are moments of both. I have more freedom in some ways, but I cared about her a great deal and so do miss her at times... no situation is ever perfect
