Down In Me

Ex-Boyfriend Letters #8

Dear Ex-Boyfriend,

I am utterly exhausted from your constant demands. Honestly. I thought the point of breaking up was that we could both move on with healthier and happier lives. Yet you continue to impose your overbearing existence on every aspect of my life and I am tired. So so tired.

Therefore, I have seen it fit to max out our last remaining joint credit card to finance a much deserved holiday for me and my new friend. Upon my return, I sincerely hope to find you have gained a better perspective on things.

Au revoir,

Your (completely entitled) Ex-Girlfriend

    My “constant demands”? MY CONSTANT DEMANDS? All I asked, dearest, was whether you could stop repeatedly hitting me over the head with that spade. I’ll be dead soon, honestly.

    Tsch. Pah. Wimmin. Innit.

    Vaguely reminiscent of the fate of my ex-husband’s credit card shortly before our divorce a decade ago…

    Enjoy your holiday with your, ahem, *friend*.

    I thought the point of breaking up …”

    No, obviously, the point of breaking up is so they can justify wreaking further havoc on your life whilst granting you none of the benefits previously associated therewith. Pretty convenient, eh?

    I say take the Visa. I hear Bermuda is lovely this time of year.

    Hi everyone, and thanks for your comments. The intrepid ex-girlfriend is back with more tales of woe and heartache (and a lot less credit).
