What do you miss about your ex’s?

[Emboo19]

I know these threads are usually the opposite.
I know we don’t work, I know I don’t want him back now and I know someday I’ll find someone who ticks all the boxes and is right for me (or at least I have hope I will).

BUT........there’s things I still really miss about him and I can’t be the only one can I?
Some are practical stuff, he always sorted and cleaned the car, it’s currently filthy which is what made he think of this. And he was good with diy/odd jobs, now I find myself buying shelves or something and having to try do them myself (diy ain’t my thing) or wait and wait until I can get someone to do it for me.
Mostly it’s our conversations, we could talk and talk about absolute rubbish sometimes but it was lovely, and sex! I can’t deny he’s still the best I’ve had and I do miss it.

Of course I don’t miss his selfishness and head fuckery or him cheating on me!

Really awesome koi pond at his house🐠also we both played Pokemon together. Nothing else though

Sex. Oh god the sex.

Personality wise my ex was a 0/10.

But he looked like a Greek god. Insane body. Perfect face. People would literally stare at him walking into a room.

Too bad he was such a massive, massive bellend.

@tisrainingagain yes! I miss how things were before it all went to shit.
I miss the companionship and being with someone who shares all the memories of the kids growing up. I was with him for over half of my life! Today I especially missed the hangover cuddles.
I don't miss the petulant manchild that he became, one bit.

@SickOfSitting - that blackhead was just amazing. I'd always thought it was a mole, until the top of it shifted slightly. It came out about as long & thick as a fingernail, and was so ancient it left a permanent crevasse on the top of his right buttock.

He had the spottiest arse* I've ever seen, but that was special. Every now & then I want to ask him if his new partner has progressed to that level of intimacy with him, just to make him squirm a bit.

*weirdly, didn't get spots anywhere else.

His cute nose, and great cock, but he was a cock too, so upgraded to a great man.

His friends. He was a twat but he always had lovely people in his life m. DH on the other hand is a lovely man but a —lazy— introvert and I am jack of being social secretary

On rare occasions, ex and I could have interesting conversations on a wide range of subjects. Otherwise, I don't miss him, something he's having a lot of trouble understanding.

He was really good at presents - used to splash the cash a bit & really treat me.

Didn't remotely make up for any of the head-fucking twattery though.

Iv racked my brains but honestly Absolutley fuck all 😂😂😂

Nothing!!

The only thing I miss about exh is the cooking. He trained as a chef for years and I was spoilt rotten food wise.

Mist recent ex...he was very practical and could fix things and do any diy - and now I pay someone to do that! Otherwise nothing.

I miss doing the cross word with my exh.

He had a lovely cock and was great in bed, but to be honest it never made up for his shitty personality and lying.

Lots
We’re divorced but co parent fantastically
I still get to talk to him loads. He will come in or vice versus for a coffee whenever he stops off on a Sunday and we will have a coffee and chat.

So much I miss. We were very compatible. But I fundamentally do not kiss loving with him. He has a lot of issues and actually living with him is very difficult.

I get the best of both worlds. I still get to enjoy his company but not deal with his shit.

Is carslberg made exs- I’m pretty sure mine would be the poster boy. He is as honest as they come and incredibly generous and a fantastic father.

As a husband though - not nearly so great and no regrets

Having intellectual conversations. Sharing interests. Appreciating beautiful and cultural things together. Having someone who really believed I could do good things with writing.

With another ex, the smell of his beard. Good grief it was good. Unfortunately it was a combination of vanilla and something called 'Pussy Oil'. Because apparently that's what it got you. This only sounds okay when said in his Queen NY accent. Miss that too.

*Queens

His DIY skills. He was fab at everything in the house.
The lying and cheating not so much!

I still miss my 1st ex for the sex 🙈best in bed ever

Middle ex nothing , literally think back and can’t think why I ever got with him.

Last ex (father of my child) - miss him putting the bins out. But anyone could put the bins out so that’s not really specific about him.

I miss nothing he's my best friend. He is a terrible partner (very much the free spirit) but an amazing friend.

Aw why did you guys split up! Sounds like you’re still very fond of him

This post actually helped me realise I don’t miss my ex at all. I often think about what could’ve been and want to message him but in reality I don’t need him in my life. He caused the problems and stress!

We both went to work abroad in different countries. We were together for a year. Aged 22 I met the love of my life, we've been married for 23 years. DH and said friend adore each other. They go out and attend concerts together regularly without me. I'm the sister he never had. I love him and he me, just not in that way.

Most recent ex - he ended it. TBH the thing I really grieved the most is losing his family. His sisters and cousins were so welcoming to me and I got on very well with his DC - his youngest was the same age as my son. Our last Xmas together, his DC and DGC came to ours to celebrate - I felt like I was starting a real family tradition of togetherness, something I really missed in my own family since my DGM passed.

On boxing day he asked me to marry him in front of them all.

In March the cunt rinsed my back account and fucked off with another woman

He was pretty good in the sack but I've had better since.
