I will preface this by saying I’m very unlikely to actually go through with this but the thought cheers up. Also aware that that’s not a healthy long term coping mechanism but it’s all still fresh and I’ve got to cheer myself up somehow

I need suggestions for junk emails/texts to sign my ex up for?
or another harmless and legal ways to annoy him

I hate to say it, becuase I feel your pain, but none of that will annoy him. Even more so if he figuresout you did it. Becuase if he knows you did it, he'll know he's still taking up space in your brain.

The best way to irritate him is NOT to rise to his crap. I always enjoy the posts on here where women mention their new strategy of respondnig to their exes' rants/tactics etc with a single thumbs up emoji or whatever emoji seems most effective.

Rising above it is the mid term game and being happy ever after is the goal.

Short term, change his name to dipstick or something silly in your phone (if you haven’t already blocked and deleted).

Deep breath, every day will feel a little better until one day you’ll realise you haven’t even thought about them and wonder why you cared.

I do wish people would read that it was just an idea to cheer you and you would be unlikely to actually go through with it, but MN does bring out the po faced Hmm

My suggestions:

Living Social
Wowcher
Groupon
