POLL: What do you miss about your EX?

I saw this on another board. Anyone care to touch this one?? It can be ex husband, ex boyfriend, ex one night stand....you get the point.

:)

Re: POLL: What do you miss about your EX?

  • I am sitting here thinking and I am honestly can't come up with anything I miss.  All of my exes are my exes for a reason really.  

     If I was forced to give an answer it would be an exes cooking skills cause I didn't have to cook all the time, but that is more missing not having to cook allthe time and I could say the same thing about living with my mother I didn't have to cook all the time.  I think I'd rather move back in with my mother crazy excon boyfriend and all than to get back with that ex. Not that either are ever going to happen in my life time. 

    For the time being I think I'll just invite myself to my grandma's to dinner if I don't want to cook.

  • I don't miss him (ex bf). The .22 caliber took care of him. HA! He was a real jerk and my life is thousands times better without him in it.
  • He's really hot! LOL

    (This would be my high school ex, we have been in contact off and on well, since we broke up.) The last time I saw him in person was about 8 years ago. (So he may have a giant beer gut by now.) When we were 17, he was okay looking, but eventually he grew into his looks. He was a lot of fun and made me feel alive. Now that he's got almost 3 kids and me with almost 1, it's super weird, yet really cool to see how we/our lives turned out. I feel lucky and thankful to have worked through our stuff and still be in contact with each other.
  • His mom. It was harder to break up with his mom then it was with him.
  • He had a boat.

    It's too bad that's all he had going for him ;)
  • His family - they loved me :)  I don't miss anything about him :)
  • ABSO-FREAKIN-NOTHING!
  • My ex-boyfriend knew my taste in video games perfectly.  He always knew exactly what games I would want to play and why. 

    I'm actually still good friends with a lot of my exes.  DH is friends with them too.
  • my ex (hs sweetheart) was really easy to talk to and would get all "philisophical" with me about life, stuff etc.  my hubby doesnt really get "deep" like that.  But i still love him better!  He's the best! ;)
  • This would be my second ex-hubby....

    I miss his family!

     

  • I miss the good parts of him...when he was loving and romantic and we spent all of our time together and enjoyed each other's company. 

    Then he gave all those things to someone else's wife and there went our marriage!!!
  • OMG! This one's easy! Back massages!!! Oh how I miss them! DH thinks 2 seconds is a massage. uugh.
  • k&d - I'm right there with you on the back massages. DH hates doing it and is terrible at it (and his only last about 60 seconds, tops). It was funny I was rubbing my shoulder as I was reading the posts when I read yours - ha!

    The other thing I miss is he was in a band and it was fun to go and dance with my friends while he played. But that was in college, which took him 6 years to graduate and his "plan" was to relax during the summers (he went to school to be a HS science teacher) while I brought in the $$...I don't think so, buddy. DH is much more focused and goal-oriented on that front, which I really appreciate after my ex BF.

  • I miss a few of them as people to hang out with.  I always lost the friends in every break up, so I get kinda lonely at times.
  • He even though he was an arse, he is the only person who has ever got my train of thought.  I tend to jump from thought to thought a lot in my head and then start talking about one of them out of nowhere and confuse people.   :) 
  • Not a damn thing. I dated a lot of losers.
  • I miss the men I dated who was passionate about Ohio State football as I am and sat next to me and cheered just as loud. I loved the guys I dated who would pay for tickets to go to a game in a second. :)  I love Dh dearly but he just doesn't get the passion and he is frugal so he doesn't see the need to pay for tickets when you can see it on TV.

  • his family. I am actually still friends with several ex boyfriends.
