Have you forgiven your psycho ex?

If so, how and why? Did time heal old wounds? Did you forgive to move on yourself?

If not, why not?

I don’t have to hold onto feelings about what they did. They aren’t important to me, they’re irrelevant in my current life. What they did might have hurt my feelings or my body before. But I’m better with the knowledge of those experiences & don’t plan on meeting up for a chat but also don’t give them time in my thoughts either.

@Mrsbetweenfatandfit That's an excellent way to deal with them. I'm almost there with you. Almost.

@Mrsbetweenfatandfit That's the hard part for me, time thinking about it.
It's not like we can go back.

My Ex wife was not what is folk called a psycho.
Was (till "recovered") a medically diagnosed psychotic for some decades.
That makes not clear what was really to be forgiven.
I forgave her, anyhow, as a human being, that she (besides her illness) never loved me (her own words).
But not that it took decades for her to confess it.

As to "move", "let go" and related, I honestly find that á la mode concepts alien to my emotional structure.
The worst to say about is that some wounds (not pains, wounds) will always be there, they shape you. Time heals nothing.
The best to say about is that show must go on.
What may do good is what you do in that time, if timely.

I am relieved and grateful that I've escaped all of them, and I am still alive. I never see any of them, and it's just better that way.

The first was probably not a psycho, but was definitely a liar and a pervert.

The second one told me he was going to put out a hit on me...a contract.

The third one wanted to arrange an explosion...with me the only victim.

I will let God forgive them for the things they said and the things they planned.

For myself, I don't dwell on it. I am here, now, safe. It is water under the bridge.

@4meAndyou Wow! I'm glad they didn't succeed in whatever they had planned for you and that you're still alive. I hope too that you attract better men these days.

@Bitabyss Thank you. No, I don't attract better ones, but at least the one that comes around most often is not violent.

We decided we were both psychos and forgave each other.

We talk once in a while, and still fight about the old days. LOL.

We just didn't want to be enemies I guess. Why stay mad at somebody if you don't have to?
Bitabyss · 51-55, M
@EmilyEdith Yes, that would be ideal.
EmilyEdith · 56-60, F
@Bitabyss It's a delicate ballet.
💃🗡️🕺

Still better than being enemies.

My ex fiancé that used to bash me black and blue and tried to kill me when I left her, I do forgive her as she was only physically abusive but she just thought she owned me as well as loved me.
My recent ex I’m 50/50 wether I forgive her, I’ll never forgive the fact that she took away my self esteem, confidence, and self worth, and telling me to “go kill myself” when i was in a vulnerable state of mind. But the part of me that does forgive her, is that she has made me come out a lot stronger although after breaking up with her took me months to heal all those wounds. It helped me be less naive and more guarded with my heart and eventually it lead me to the right girl that I’m currently with now.
If you call them that i doubt you forgave them

I was never offended at mine even tho he was a serial cheater and maybe a serial killer idk

@Kingfish28 I think that forgiveness is optional, but don't let that eat at you. I worry about you, man. 😕

I never had a psycho ex. I'm the ex who had psychosis though. Although I wasn't really dangerous even when crazy, just really paranoid and delusional.

No, fuck her.
I’ve never had a psycho ex. There were a couple of people I refused to date who turned out to be disturbed. One eventually murdered the girl who [b]did[/b] subsequently start going out with him. I’d noticed he seemed very controlling, which was [b]why[/b] I wouldn’t go out with him.
