Re: Poll: What Song Reminds You of Your Relationship with Your Ex?
"Gone" by Ben Folds - specifically the line, "I heard that you went straight to someone else; while I worked through all this sh** here by myself; and I think that you should spend some time alone; but if you won't, then you won't; and I will consider you gone."
I used to blast it and consider it my anthem while my ex was dating the girl he jumped into the arms of after telling me he wanted to be single forever. It's a great song.

Lots of songs remind of the good part of our marriage because he's a musician and we shared a lot of music together.
But my mantra when I moved back to my house was Fantasia's "I'm Doin' Me"
I?m doin me, this time around
I?m doin? me, don?t need you now
I'd rather be by myself, I won?t let your drama hold me down
I?m doin? me, this time around
I?m doin me, I?ve finally found
I?d rather be by myself, I?m doin? me.
Our first dance song - "Bless the Broken Road" - by Rascal Flatts. I started my car today and it was playing on the radio - I used to cry when I heard it but now I'm able to smile - good memories attached to it.
On the vindictive side?
"Russian Rullet" - Rhianna
"Stronger" - Sara Evans
"Lover Love"r - Jerrod Nieman
"Pray For You" - Jeron and the long road to love
Alanis Morissette! He knew better than to tango with me...

LMAO!!! One of my faves
LMAO!!! One of my faves
A few.
Adele's "Turning Tables"
Kelly Clarkson's "Mr. Know It All"
and
Fleetwood Mac's "Landslide"
eta, especially the chorus:
Well I've been afraid of changing
Cause I built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older, and I'm getting older too
The song meant that much more to me when I learned Stevie Nicks wrote it when she was 25. The same age that I came to realize I made a horrible decision in marrying my XH.
This is one I listen to on hard days!
Christina Perri - Jar of Hearts
Jarrod Niemann - What Do You Want from Me....I listened to that a lot when he was moving out but stringing me along. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97BfC4LgrXk&ob=av2e
"it's not me it's you" by skillet
"monster" by Pop Evil because it was playing on the drive to the court house

Rollin in the Deep by Adele
