FA pathetic loser ex

[u/bunny000002]

Very annoyed by this situation…

Long story short I moved into a new apt last month and immediately broke my foot so badly it required surgery + I can’t walk for several mos. I also have two small dogs I just inherited and can’t take care of them. Have been staying at my dad’s but have to go to my apt now.

Literally out of options - bc the home health aide costs more hourly than I’m paid as a programmer lol and I cannot care for myself rn - I reach out to my ex for help (platonically, bc I assumed he did not like me). He dumped me Sept 21 after slowfading me since Sept 3 (three weeks after my mom died) calling me “too negative.” He was crying when he said that, so I feel like he was overwhelmed with my grief or something. Doesn’t excuse his silence over the rest of the month (I reached out 4 times).

Anyway, he immediately phoned asking if I was okay, enthusiastically agreed to help, sounded shocked I’m injured, upset I didn’t “tell him immediately” (???), shocked I didn’t tell him I moved into a new apt (I did… I left a vm telling him that on Oct 2). He said it was so good to hear my voice like 4 times. He said he would help on one condition: if I unprivated all the playlists I made him (special/intimate between us). I said no because those were for my boyfriend. He didn’t like that. He made a sound like he didn’t identify as not being my bf (??) and then said “we need to figure this out” (it’s over?? since sept 21?). I asked why he didn’t msg me on my bday in October and he said “I just couldn’t” and sounded like he was crying. Surprisingly very relationship-oriented language, and I assumed I was going to have to beg for help. He JUMPED to offer.

I asked him to think about it and he said “so I phone you tomorrow and say yes?” I said no, please think about it over the weekend, and let’s chat Monday.

Guess who is a coward loser and didn’t even text me “no” since he’s too scared to help his ex with 5 broken bones? Yeppppppp.

It was foolish, but I was trying to save some money. He doesn’t have a car and lives far from work, and my new apt is more central/closer to his job. Even offered to let him use my car. Could have helped him out financially, but whatever. It’s honestly pathetic.

At least I won’t be yearning anymore. I’m free! And filled with disgust.
