I don't understand...

I messaged my ex telling him that what was once his cat (now my family's) had passed away suddenly because I though he should know, and because I'm an idiot like that.

He replied with "I want the collar and name tags, it's only right" and when I denied him that, it went downhill from there.

He ended it with I ruined HIS life, drained him of all his finances and that he was in debt because I chose to go to school and ultimately because of me, despite the fact that HE was stealing from our friends and my family (money or material possessions) to get cocaine.

He proceeded to rub it in my face that he now has a life no thanks to me and that he'll be off to LA due to an apparent "record deal" and moving into his first house with his first car.

He always had a talent for making me feel like nothing to the point where I know believe it. He abused me in a variety of ways (mentally, emotionally, physically, etc.) LOVED playing victim and blaming everyone for all his problems, etc.

Why do bad people get these kind of advantages and good people suffer? I don't understand...

Just cut off all ties with him he go and enjoy your own life, you are free now. I he says things like this don't let it bother you, he is no longer anything to do with you, so make sure you have nothing to do with him anymore.

What happens in his life now shouldn't concern you move on and make your own life good.

I agree with Jimmy. Your ex seems to have got what he wants but someone like this who blames his problems on others and refuses to take responsibility for his own life will never have a good one.

You on the other hand will have a good life and will end up a lot happier than him. Ignore him and celebrate the brave decision you made to leave him and your freedom. Never ever contact him again even if you think it is the right thing to do. Leave him with his skewed version of life and heal. x

Thank you both, I was trying to be nice but he doesn't deserve it. I have blocked him after the incident and don't plan on ever contacting him or giving him the time of day.

I was just upset cuz I believed some of the things he said to Ben true...

Thank you both again :)
