What I won't miss
«

Yesterday I booked myself a holiday by a beautiful beach. I felt excited and happy and then I cried.
I realized I cried because I had not been happy but more than that I was conditioned not to be happy because being happy could change by her moods, and it always did. You are expecting nothing to last.
I won't miss holidays and she created an issue.
I won't miss not being able to just chill out because she is never satisfied or doesn't know what she wants or likes from one moment to the next.
I won't miss doing something great and looking across at her and seeing - nothing - no joy, no love, no recognition for what we were looking at.
Nothing
I can be excited, happy, in awe and express it and nobody will say "what are smiling at me for"
I won't miss her fake laughs that change for different people
I won't miss her absence of empathy
I won't miss the guilt trips or the accusations
I won't fixations that are never ending. They just never stopped. She always had to have one.
I won't miss being called negative by one of the most miserable people I have ever met.
Now I know how her mind works, the suppressed anger, resentment and revenge. The dark thoughts that linger in her mind
I won't miss that.
I won't miss the endless reassurance of her attractiveness, capabilities, my love for her and in detail
I won't miss the passive aggressive comments and looks.
I finally be able to breathe without someone sometimes hating my guts and resenting the air I breathe

I forgot
I won't miss the fake persona and the years of lies.
