I swear!

I swear, talking to my ex increases my blood pressure ten-fold. It's difficult because I'm extremely close with her family in an adoptive sense, however trying to have a civil conversation with her specifically without her nagging at every inch of my life is bloody nerve-wracking. One major reason we broke up was because I found her too overwhelming, clingy, and controlling to the point of insanity and it caused many, many fights. I try my best to be a peaceful human being and her clan adores me, but Christ Almighty, that girl needs a straight jacket and to have her lips sewn together. No offense to women; she doesn't represent everyone. But, my point being though is that some people's screws are (seemingly) a tad more loose (or missing all together) than others, and it ain't gender specific. Jesus, Mary, Joseph, and Murphy!

In defense of us women I feel it must be all the hormones coursing through our bodies with\ from...PMS...Pregnancy...Menopause...active sex lives which all are designed for the mans benefit for procreation .

Overwhelming intensity, controlling, critical, moody and clingy might add up to a personality disorder. In women maybe "borderline", in men "narcissistic". Some suspect they're more or less the same underlying thing, just expressed and labelled differently due to gender stereotypes.

ex issues

Apr 20, 2015 at 4:27pm

an ex is an ex for a reason.
I really liked my ex's family. we got a lot so well.
now my ex is dating someone else. He is a good guy, but too many issues that I didn't want in my life. Now, he is dating someone else. Happy for him. But he texts (even calls me) to tell me how immature his new gf is. she is full of drama, and curses like a trucker and can't have a good time without getting drunk or causing a fight in a club.
so why text me?, do I really need to hear this? what's the point?? Did I miss the part where I said I care what you do next??
it just shows me he and I were a bad fit, especially since it shows he loves drama and being with immature girl. when its over, no use continuing any contact. Not my monkey, not my circus.

its called a boundary

really your comments about someone you professed to love at some point are sad. 2 is 1 plus one. = she had some good qualities but the violence of the communication here really sets you up for not having to take any responsibility for your actions or words. Relationship counseling and love not in the glib sense.
