sweetie....you put a lot if not almost ALL of your self-worth in this guy's hands........instead of keeping it close to your own soul. it is going to take time to reel that back in.
so he has a new gf.....and CLAIMS to be doing better than ever. normal people, when asked how they are doing would just say "great!" or "fine" and then ask about the OTHER person.
instead your EX has to go on and on about how awesome he is......never better. that is such an addict statement.....the more sh!t you need to conceal, the more you need to fire up the smoke machine.
maybe when you met he WAS amazing....or maybe when you met you just thought he was amazing.....but he did not STAY that way.......he changed on you.......or who he really was became more and more apparent!
he did't just become an Eagle Scout, just beatified by the Catholic Church on his way to sainthood......
