About almost 3 years ago I broke up with my boyfriend after I caught him cheating on me. He was toxic, manipulative, threatened, and back-mailed for long a time after our break-up. So leaving that toxic relationship was probably the best that has ever happened to me. Since our breakup he emails me every so often (blocked him on everything) but about month ago he contacted me to see if I have doing alright with isolation. Idk if it’s the boredom of isolation or whatever I replied for the first time ever. We ended up speaking on the phone, we talked things out, he apologized and said he had realised how toxic he was and that he was a changed man and we finally got the closure we need. It felt great, no bad blood or anything he felt the same way. So we left it on a good note.
He messages me here and there sending memes and talking for fun. About a day ago we ended up in an argument. He got jealous because I mentioned a guy he didn’t like, he told me he still loves me and he got jealous and out of spite he sent me a picture of him and his ex-gf having sex. I thought it wouldn’t bother me. But I feel so scarred, that image was the most disgusting thing I have ever seen. He apologized but I just told him to fuck off. Idk why I feel so shit about it I don’t love him or anything. I don’t understand how after everything I have put up with him, he had to stoop that low. He was a big part of my life, my first ever love and he couldn’t even give me the slighted bit of respect. I have never in my life felt so worthless and disrespected. Why do I feel this way? How do I overcome this feeling?
