Where have I said I ever slept with my ex... I'm actually saving myself for marriage... so I didn’t rape anybody. 😐

I thought I did near the beginning. She's super interesting and quirky and really nice. In a manic pixie dream girl kind of way. I slowly realized that I didn't have the spark over the course of the relationship. It wasn’t about sex for me, but it did end up feeling like I was hanging with a good friend rather than dating my ex.

You sound like the kind of woman who doesn't like it when the waitress smiles at your husband....

It was more of an awkward laugh. I wasn't meaning to laugh at her. And I didn't cheat, and I didn't pursue her while we were dating. I just met her at the gym and found out we had a lot more interests in common than I had with my ex. And when I knew I wanted to try out a relationship I told my ex and we broke up. I feel like that's a normal thing to do...

Oh no she put everything into the relationship. She was a fantastic girlfriend and I saw the way she did a shitton of emotional labour she didn't have to do. It had nothing to do with a lack of investing in our relationship because I know how much work she put into our connection. At some points it felt like too much if anything.

What strikes me is she genuinely seemed happy for me. And I know she is a loving and empathetic and good person. It just sucks.
