Is it normal to want to do this?

My ex was my best friend while we dated, or at least I thought he was. He admitted to me that everything was a lie, so the person I thought I knew was actually a very different person than he projected to me.

I used to tell him everything. I got good news today. I used to love to tell him good news. I got the urge to tell him. Obviously, I'm not going to this would be toxic. I don't actually want to tell the real him. I want to tell that nice caring man who he pretended to be. is it normal that he's the first one I wanted to tell him? Note: it hasn't been long since the break up and I think I'm still in shock and it's hard to believe that nice guy he presented me doesn't exist

    Sounds like you miss this person, but your ex is an ex for a reason. It's just a love hangover, just hang in there, and eventually you'll get over it.

        Hang in there, sweetie. Try to stay busy, and distract yourself. You'll get over it.

    • I've learned yes, but it doesn't take away the hurt I'm feeling over what I wrote about at the moment

    You're fine.

    Before I met my current boyfriend, I use to miss the charming person my ex pretended to be too. That feeling will pass, especially once you learn the relationship red flags that will help you avoid people like that.

    What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.
