Do they miss us... lewis0416: Do the leavers think about what they have done..are they really happier...My ex chose to leave but he is definitely not happier..I know that for a fact..He moved someone in with him and its funny becaus he has to bring her cellphone with him when he and I meet to exchange the kids. I never put a leash on him like that. He also has to drive her car because he ruined the one tha I bought for him and I know he has money problems because I keep getting his bills and bank overdraft statements. He still has not stopped drinking(his GF keeps tabs on that too, just like I told him before, no one else is goint to want to put up with that) THe reason I am saying all of this is because I actually am grateful that we split up. I am graduating from college with an accounting degree in 11 months, I have bought a new car, saved money and am now looking to buy a house. I have a very active social life now, something I never had when I was married. I feel wonderful and I am happy.. So I guess the point of this is...maybe if they left, we didn't really need them after all, maybe they were holding us back from what we could be...Just a thought. I do wonder sometimes if he regrets doing what he did. I know people drift apart but he didnt even try to make the marriage work..Im sure I had fault in the failure of the marriage but at least I can say that I tried my best. I wonder if he thinks of me when he is holding her or taking her to our favorite restaurants or making her food that I taught him how to cook..
Re: Do they miss us... wowee: I miss him, he misses me - we just weren't meant to be.
I miss the "couple stuff" - cuddling on the couch & watching a movie, I miss watching him play with my son, and I miss someone being there at night.
He misses the stuff I always did for him.
In the end, I miss more the idea of him then the actual person, and I guess the same is true for him.
