Your Ex’s Owe You Nothing.

It amazes me how people swear up and down they are over their former partners but still expect those ex’s to live and do for them.

What if one or all of your ex’s ran up on you on some "you should’ve been this way with me?" You’d want to slap that bitch (not gender exclusive)

This is exactly how y’all sound when you make it a habit of dating your ex’s without actually being in a relationship with them.

These thoughts stem from episode 3 of Insecure and this growing notion that men owe their ex-girlfriend’s/ex-partners something because they may have been shitty boyfriends/partners in the past.

That sucks that they sucked when they were with you, but no one owes you shit and people grow. That bum n*gga you used to date doesn’t owe you a life of material happiness now that he’s got his shit together or is doing better than he was when he was with you.

PEOPLE GROW.

All you can do is move on and grow. Expecting your ex to be the same person they were when y’all were together is not something a grown mature adult does. You don’t have to fake the funk and act like you want your ex to be the best version of themselves if you don’t truly feel that way. I’d rather you admit that than hear you argue that your ex did you wrong by not continuing to be their worse self after you two have separated.

That’s fucking wild that I seem to be one of the only people standing on that hill, but I’ll be that. I’m used to being on top of these hills by myself.

Just know that if your ex owes you something because they’ve leveled up, you owe your ex’s something for your level up.

Oh, it aint so fair now, is it?
