New Age Cheater Goop Speak

July 19, 2019 by Chump Lady

flyBullshit artists have a real way with words.

One of my favorite Stupid Shit Cheaters Say submissions ever was:

“I didn’t cheat on you, I cheated on your belief that I would not cheat on you.”

It’s like META bullshit. You’re just not deep enough to understand it, chump.

Today’s Fun Friday Challenge is to take a popular New Age-y aphorism like “Live, Love, Laugh” and rewrite it for cheater sensibilities –“Lie, Luv, Litigate.”

Cheaters seem well-versed in philosophy — the kind of Pinterest-board deep thoughts that can only be expressed by a sunset meme or a basket of kittens.

So what’s your cheater goop speak of the week?

If you see some judgement, set it free?

    “I Love Me, And You/Your Needs Were Never Even So Much As A Blip On My Radar Screen” #ILYBINILWY #ScrewYouVoldemort #FuckYouFriday #BiteMe

    • DOCTOR's1stWife&3Kids says

      July 19, 2019 at 11:15 am

      The DOCTOR said he had “retired” and told the judge he retired

      so that he 1) could travel and not be “forced” to work until death,

      2) wants to return to school (for a 3rd specialty? For retirement??)

      3) wants to help veterans – although he had literally just left a VA hospital

      4) wants to rest as he is now “disabled” while also posting on FB his physique and crediting it to his Paleo diet and strenuous workouts

      5) AND wants to become a partner in a new medical practice.

      The fact that these ^^^ lies contradict each other mattered not.

      I knew without a doubt that the DOCTOR would never, ever retire until he had a much bigger pile of money than whoever he’s still competing with, like his father.

      So I hired a PI.

      In less than 48 hours he found my then STBXH. He was seeing patients, advertising in the papers as working there, giving presentations to audiences of possible patients. And his NAME was on the side of the building…

      And after all this, he still swore under oath and to our children, to be volunteering.

      Let that ^^^ lunacy sink in.

      Two more things make this even crazier.

      First, the idiot failed to realize that EVEN IF he were “volunteering” that would only mean he was deliberately not earning to avoid paying alimony. The courts don’t like that. I’d still get alimony. So it was a stupid series of lies to tell.

      Ex is the type of client who’d lie to his own lawyer for sure. But you’d think he’d ask the lawyer about it. Then again, his lawyer was a jerk.

      Second, I think when some narcs imagine possible lies long enough, after awhile they believe them. Worse, they become indignant when you do not believe them.

      Of all the crazy shit he pulled, my ex was THEN furious that he was not believed, even though his lies were stupid AND legally irrelevant. Obviously, he was entitled to be believed even as he’d been caught.

      It was very cray cray.

      SIDENOTE – my EX never volunteered to work for free in our 35 year marriage. Not even once.

      Good riddance to lunacy.

        “Second, I think when some narcs imagine possible lies long enough, after awhile they believe them. Worse, they become indignant when you do not believe them.”

        Oh, got it in one!

        Fucktard adamantly denied adultery, even after the texts I found boasting about fucking the rat faced whore, and the texts I found from rat faced whore about” everything just flowed”, and “we didn’t get up until 7”.

        Then he sent me a text, “why won’t you believe me when I say there’s nothing going on?”

        😂😂😂

          July 19, 2019 at 9:05 pm

          Believe their own lies? Yeah, just a part of the “playbook”. I sincerely believe that they believe their own lies; otherwise, why all the indignation?
          Oh right, gaslighting.

      • Mandie101 says

        July 19, 2019 at 1:37 pm

        That’s the scary bit. The part when they believe their own lies. When they speak their lies like truth and become belligerent when you call them out.
        Very disturbing. Especially when there is no proof to counter their lunacy.

          My ex continuously pled the fifth on the stand during our divorce trial regarding his affair. Drove the judge crazy. But he couldn’t admit under oath that he had an affair even though I had the text messages from him. When I tried to get those put in as evidence he claimed he couldn’t read them. Infuriating.

      • Happily Free says

        July 19, 2019 at 2:03 pm

        How do you handle it when their lawyer acts like they’re just as crazy as your x? Oh boy.
        Cause I’m not sure is she’s just believing all the bull he’s feeding her or if she’s just collecting her paycheck no matter what or if she’s just as crazy. Either way, she’s not giving him good legal advice, which makes him worse because she’s supporting him.

      • Ally says

        July 27, 2019 at 4:50 am

        So true.. my now XH had the audacity to claim that I had gone behind his back by going to a solicitor to file for divorce. His words were ” when you go behind someone’s back you always get found out”. He was furious with me for divorcing him as he thought he was mr wonderful. He called me deceitful. The arrogance is staggering seeing as it turned out he had spent half our 24 year marriage having sex with over 200 women and men and I found the 250+ sex tapes he had made of these encounters which he had filmed due to his both his level of narcissistic personality disorder and because he is a sociopath. Beggars belief he had the nerve to call me deceitful.

      “My therapist said you left me long before I left you.” Right, I stopped initiating sexually when you repeatedly denigrated my body while I was pregnant, immediately postpartum, or nursing (three children, two miscarriages, all in eight years). When your expectations were based on magazine models or teenagers rather than real women. And that was one of the excuses.

      • Elderly Chump says

        July 19, 2019 at 7:30 pm

        DrFormerChump,

        OMG, the X said the same thing about me leaving the relationship ‘a long time ago.’

        Like, where did I go?

        Oh, and he is a therapist so that must be a line cheating therapists dish out to clients. Maybe my X is your X’s therapist. Scary thought.

        • DrFormerChump says

          July 19, 2019 at 9:33 pm

          Nope, but I am a therapist. I figure his therapist was operating on limited information, and/or not a very good therapist.

        July 22, 2019 at 11:39 am

        @DrFormerChump This really hits home. My ex put my body down as well, and when D-Day rolled around it was while I was waiting for an appointment with a physical therapist who treats injuries from childbirth. Leave it to a narc to make EVERYTHING about him, even the existence of your actual physical body (which can create life for goodness’ sake, and which has many functions other than pleasing him).

    Here’s one I didn’t even need to change:

    From a movie back in the Dark Ages of my youth —> LOVE MEANS NEVER HAVING TO SAY YOU’RE SORRY.

    They claim to still love you as they carry on a guilt free double life.

    • EstellaO says

      July 19, 2019 at 6:45 am

      Chumptastic, this Love Story reference is perfect–and wasn’t it based (in part) on Al Gore (cheater) and Tipper Gore? As they said in my youth, “Gag me with a spoon!”

    • Lillian Rayward says

      July 19, 2019 at 8:05 am

      Yes, my husband claimed he loved me while having sex with numerous women behind my back. I can pass on that type of “love”.

      • Ex Pilot’s Wife says

        July 19, 2019 at 9:04 am

        Oh yes! He loved me. I was his “queen.” He just needed a bunch of princesses too. That’s just the way he is. He actually said that to me. After 40 years of marriage during which he plowed through a multitude of princesses. No thanks!

        • Gingerbreadman42223 says

          July 23, 2019 at 8:53 pm

          Isn’t that the biggest mindfuck of all? They say “I love you”. No they don’t. I loved her and I would just as soon have a pineapple shoved up my ass and ripped out of my nose than betray my spouse. They don’t have love. What they mean to say is you’re just so gosh darn useful being the fallback plan, the soft landing, the sure thing. That’s what “I love you” means in their language.

      • Sirchumpalot says

        July 19, 2019 at 9:45 am

        My XW said “In ancient times men had multiple wife’s and they loved them. I love you and the MOM. You can love more then one at the same time.” 🙄🙄🙄

        • Deee says

          July 19, 2019 at 9:56 am

          But there were very different codes of conduct for men vs women back then – depending on where/when you XW transported herself to she could have faced death in a very barbaric way for her actions – I would also say that these cheaters don’t really understand love – it isn’t love when you are lying and deceiving people – it’s sex

          • marissachump says

            July 19, 2019 at 12:51 pm

            I wouldn’t even say that’s sex. It’s not consensual when you are being deceived for sex. I’d say it’s sexual assault.

              So does Joyce Short with all her work on consent awareness and sexual assault

              • oldcrone says

                July 20, 2019 at 10:28 am

                Thank you for pointing us to Joyce Short. She is doing important work around “consent”, what it is and what it isn’t.
                One of her important points is that there can be no consent if all parties are not equally informed.
                Without total honesty from both parties, sex is sexual assault. And passing on STDS in the process should be aggravated assault, in my opinion.
                It’s time for the laws to change.

              July 19, 2019 at 3:34 pm

              Agree. As is screwing at least 3 women (that i know of, myself included) without condoms, in a single day, because *you’re the only one im screwing [over]*. I go a step further. Its rape. Non-consensual unsafe sex. Im sure if we all knew he was putting his unsheathed dick elsewhere we would have wanted condoms, or no sex at all.

        • oldcrone says

          July 19, 2019 at 9:13 pm

          You can HAVE SEX with multiple people (mine was an equal opportunity cheater, gender didn’t matter), but love? Nah.
          Fucking around behind not just my back, but also cheating on the folks who he cheated with.
          Who says men can’t multitask?

          • MamaMeh says

            July 20, 2019 at 9:39 am

            Mine also hundreds of anon strange over a decade, not fussed on gender.

            He said, (to both me and teenage son), that is was about more than sex, it was about VALIDATION. Ahhh -of course – a wife and children who love you aren’t as validating as a dude in a very dark gay club who thinks YOU are the most fuckable that day. Or he (female) hooker who tells you how hot you are. (Because you paid them).

            Love = gratification/validation. It’s that simple. Make them feel good or make them look good – their understanding of “love”. Any person that does not gratify a cheater narc is discarded – including their kids.

            • Stig says

              July 21, 2019 at 2:53 am

              That might be the most honest thing a cheater has ever said, if by validation, he meant kibbles.

              OMG, were we married to the same narcissistic fucktard? Mine videoed himself with over 200 women and men, including videos of him having sex with people in our fucking house whilst I was out at work and kids were at school. Also having sex with people in hotels on our anniversary and valentines day before coming home to take me out for a meal ffs. Date and time stamps on his sex tapes stash were very useful. I don’t know how he even held down a job, that many videos, he was a prolific sex chaser.

    • Chumpinrecovery says

      July 19, 2019 at 8:41 am

      Well, maybe if you love your spouse enough to never do anything that requires it. Of course “sorry” doesn’t mean much coming from a cheater anyway. Or so I hear. Mine never bothered.

      • WarriorPrincess says

        July 20, 2019 at 7:51 am

      July 19, 2019 at 10:16 am

      Chumptastic I have ALWAYS hated that line from “Love Story”.

      It’s the fecking opposite (love means owning your shit and apologizing when you drop the ball or hurt someone).
      Whoever wrote that line HAS to be an asshole.

      • Sally says

        July 19, 2019 at 3:29 pm

        I think the point was when you love someone you strive to never do anything to them you would have to say sorry for.

        • DOCTOR's1stWife&3Kids says

          July 20, 2019 at 1:24 pm

          Sally,

          I wish it meant that we’d avoid hurting each other (though impossible. However, in the movie, the person saying they were sorry had done something worth apologizing for.

          That’s why I didn’t understand the line in reply at the time, but it felt like odd writing and I was barely in my teens when it came out.

          Now I think it’s tripe. Probably unintentional, but tripe nonetheless.

He replied “If you saw her you would know why I would never want anything to do with her. She’s a stupid B and she’s not mother material. You are” WOW so basically “let me have cake while you provide awesome motherhood to the kids we made” Married 15 years at that time and my oldest was also 7.

        Mine kept saying “He would be a better Mother.” I was the stay at home mom; who was homeschooling. I spent every minute playing with and planning activities. Had pictures done every 6 months; hair braided; nails done, etc. 2 Girls. Married 15 years also. My youngest was 5; dd was 1 week before she turned 5. 2 years later he has done no pictures of them. I send them clothing because he won’t purchase any. I braid hair the night before he picks them up because it was taking 4 hours to brush out because he refuses to brush it. He refuses to take them to doctor or dental appointments. They just spew what ever lies they can to play the “Good Guy” and try to hurt you.
        He’s the last person anyone wants as a parent; much less a mother.

      This one gets my vote for the win, Mezz. It captures exactly how my EX thought. Since most of the time he wasn’t with his “soul mate,” he should be credited for fidelity; since most of the time he wasn’t calling me names, he should be credited with kind behavior; since most of his paycheck hadn’t been funneled into a private account, he should be credited with full financial transparency; since he drove one kid to one sporting event this week, he should be credited with excellent parenting; since most of his words weren’t lies, he could claim to be “very truthful.”

        Eilonwy,

        Thank you for clarifying Mezz’s words even further. Hit me right between the eyes since that is the stance the X took but I didn’t know how to respond because he was indeed thinking in the ways which you have put forth. All was one huge muddle in my shocked mind. Now, thanks to CL and CN, the once huge muddle is being divided out into tangible little nuggets of wisdom and ammunition of self protection.

        ( I think this is what ‘they’ call, making the unconscious conscious so it can be dealt with, although the word unconscious doesn’t really accurately fit the state of my shocked mind. My experience of what is going on within my mind is an avalanche of ‘unbeknownst information/lack of information/an entirely new reality thrust upon me out of the blue type of consciousnes’s. ‘Muddle’ therefore, is the word I have chosen to try to convey why your words helped me so.)

        Thus said, I see it much more clearly now and, hence, feel like I can stand up for myself better since I still have the niggling habit of denying myself/my reality in favor of him. Detox takes time.

    To his sister with health and parenting problems: wherever u r, b there
    He texted this to m/cow when she wanted to suck his dick: wherever u r, b there
    Like a robot on factory settings.

    It was his go-to, look at me, standing on a mountaintop so enlightened answer to everything. It was also a way to seem super elusive and cool and emotionally elevated/superior when he had no clue wtf he was talking about.

    “Qui cum canibus concumbunt cum pulicibus surgent”

    My toxic porn addicted sociopathic ex fancies himself as a bit of a Richard Burton. Not the Liz Taylor one, but this one
    https://www.adventure-journal.com/2016/06/historical-badass-explorer-sir-richard-francis-burton/

    A cunning lingust fluent in Latin, clearly a sex addict (not sure porn was a thing then), translator of the karma sutra, and someone comfortable (read as entitled) and overt with his swinging sexuality (everything my ex isnt bar the entitlement, addiction and swinging sexuality), although he often referred to himself as a cunning linguist too, dickhead. Man i hate that pathetic misogynistic line.

    So when shit was kicking off earlier this year 6 months out from D Day, and one of his girlfriends (of the previous 12 months!) reached out to me because things weren’t adding up (our D Day for starters which according to her via him had happened 14 months prior, also how much i was expecting him to have the kids outside of our 50/50 custody arrangement, also bullshit, also dickhead).

    Boy did we get to do some sums and smash some geometry out of the way when we became friends, while tormenting him with truths for once instead of him tormenting us with lies and triangles as he had to me for over 15 years.

    He HATED it. Even caught him hiding in my carport one night a week after we connected, clearly wanting to catch us talking about him in my garden (she wasnt there so was pretty random situation although she was due to come over for some more closure for the two of us, lucky break she hadnt showed up tbh).

    This isn’t the one i caught him cheating and sharing girl on girl porn with 6 months before, but she was the one with a hotel room he disappeared to for 5 hours when i did while i texted him profusely trying to get some answers. (That was another gift, his silence meant i was left with google which revealed to me this crazy thing called Cluster B and NPD/ASPD/HPD/BPD – he is without a doubt all of them, comorbid fuckwit that he is).

    Anyway, through this torturous few weeks he kept on texting me latin bullshit. Pretentious AF. It was his Richard Burton habit, he’d started doing it before i discarded his lying toxic arse, in a nice trying to impress way (didnt work) but now it was all name calling and trying to look smart (hates my educated career driven arse btw but liked the money it brought in). He was hard out smearing her to me (as he’d done about me to her for 12 months) because, well, truth and discovery i suppose 😂 She’s a liar and a homewrecker etc etc. Clearly projection as she’s awesome like me.

    This latin line was my favourite though – “Qui cum canibus concumbunt cum pulicibus surgent”

    I thought it was a dig at my pot smoking (he smokes too) 😂. I just threw it back to him in English, saying no need for your pretensions now fuckwit, you’re not even the dog man, you’re just a pathetic flea.

    (they who lie with dogs will rise with fleas btw)

    “I haven’t been happy for a long time.” I responded “When were you going to tell me?” He just looked confused as if that statement should absolve him of cheating. It was his Get Out of Jail card in his withered selfish little mind.

    “I’m not going to change. I don’t see the need to change.” This is the truest statement he made in thirty five years. This statement is the true tell of narcissists everywhere. Why would anything so perfect see any need to change?

    So I changed. I left with the dog and filed for divorce. Now he can remain unchanged and unhappy while I do the work to recover from narcissistic abuse.

    Another face of mine. OW was an ex trolly dolly (glamorous 🥴) who now has a couple of homestay students from Taiwan to earn her living (one way to keep getting cheap duty free booze I guess). I’m guessing she no longer serves passengers because of her weight issues (no offence to the more rotund amongst us, I’m not so slim myself). Anyway she is fondly known as #cattleclass by me and my circle of business class travelling friends. Ex used to hate me travelling business class for work, it was always his trigger to cheat. He even never let me use the class upgrades I’d earn from travelling for work (not able to be shared).

    Needless to say I’ll be using that class upgrade when I do my big trip with my girlfriends to Bali for our 50th next year. And no fear of cheating going on in my bed back at home! He expects me to hold onto half my air points balance to share with him when he’s ready to travel (with cattle class I suppose).

    He can get f****d with the triangulation and control he’s thinking he can have with that. I’ll just add $1500 to my settlement payout to him which is in the hundreds of thousands so hardly an issue to add on.

    Which reminds me (bickering via lawyers over paltry monetary amounts) I kicked him out of our house last year (seperated but birdnesting for the kids) from finding evidence of cattle class in my home while I was in Europe for work for two weeks (on her Instagram and in our trash, where she belongs). A year later he’s now asking for evidence of my expense claim (still had joint credit card at that point, which I then paid off and closed with my bonus on my return, $15k as I recall and he thinks he’s entitled to a year later, even though it covered his half of said debt back then so yeah, whatever). I duly sent said claim through lawyers, $400 in total 😂😂 good luck with that buddy (lawyer will cost more)

    “I love bridge, I love the people, I love the game and I want you to love it too!’
    I had no idea what the fuck he was taking about. I hated card games and never played bridge in all the time we were together. I said well play bridge I don’t mind, you’ve been playing for 15 years, I have lots to do.

    He ran off with his ugly bridge playing whore the next day! FUCKING IDIOTS !

      Stupidest, most obtuse ultimatum ever! So he would have stayed if you’d agreed to play bridge? And if that’s all he used for his AP criteria, good luck to them both!

    If you love someone, set him free – if he finds a replacement, change the locks (and lawyer up).

    My ex went straight from our home to living with his OW. In an affidavit to the court he wrote that the difference in ages (I’m older than him) was the reason he felt we had nothing in common (aside from our child, house, etc). Okay, so how come he shacked up straight away with the new love of his life who was even older than me??

    When I found out about OW I naturally looked her up on Facebook (she had lied to him and told him she “doesn’t use social media” because she prefers real human connection instead… turns out she has accounts on every platform and uses them constantly, but I digress) and her profile picture was a meme with a stock photo that said “to all the girls who no longer believe in fairy tales or happy endings: you are the writer of this story. Chin up and straighten your crown, you’re the queen of this kingdom and only you know how to rule it.” I took that as a personal fuck you. Ah yes, I guess expecting my husband not to fuck some someone else in my bed was akin to believing in fairy tales. Now any time I see some cheesy self-help meme I just assume the person sharing it is a manipulative psychopath.

    My ex told me he was “evolving”. Yes, he evolved into an entitled, immoral, man-baby who cried about his unmet needs. My needs were also unmet in our marriage but I didn’t go outside the relationship to meet them. He would probably consider me to be unevolved.

    • Deee says

      July 20, 2019 at 9:10 pm

      OMG – mine said the same thing “he had evolved and was a much better person”. WTF – sneaking out on family vacation to fuck your married lover, offering your underage children pot edibles, stealing family $ to spend on girlfriends, lying to everyone, and not spending time with your kids. I sometimes think he has a brain eating amoeba.

      And this he wrote in group therapy for fuckedupedness a month before I found out about his two year long affair. I came across it after he had enacted it and walked out and I was packing up all his crap. It is the epitome of his narcissism;

      One change I would like to make is…my living situation because I can’t get better or don’t want to

      The worst thing that could happen…I destroy a relationship

      The best thing that could happen…is I’ll find myself

    After the woman I was dating admitted to cheating on 2 husbands and every boyfriend she ever had, including me, I told her I didn’t trust her and she said, “well, if you don’t trust me I don’t see how this can work.”

    My D day was when a nasty prostitute called me to rat him out. She was mad at him because she was blackmailing him and he didn’t pay up. I wish I was kidding, but I’m not.

    I kicked him out of the house immediately and he then started sending me emails begging for me to take him back so he could have a chance to show me “who he really was”.

  92. Stig says

    July 21, 2019 at 1:58 am

    ‘She doesn’t want you to be happy, but I do’. So in OW speak, that’s ‘I want the best for you, which means leaving your partner and newborn child because things are a little rough, firstly because you are being unsupportive of your partner and secondly, you are letting me get in your ear about what an ungrateful, entitled bitch she is because she expects you to be supportive and not fight her on every routine she wants to try with the baby. I went through a period of being a single mother on welfare so no-one else should ever be allowed to be a happy and supported SAM because I had it so hard, and no-one can ever imagine how hard that is, and she’s just an entitled bitch because she couldn’t imagine how hard I had it. So leave your partner, and come spend your money on our mutual hobby, but mostly me so that I can try and be some sort of social media queen bee in that arena and can stay at home and ‘work’ on my hobby business and basically let me do everything that I accused your partner of being entitled about. So yeah, those APs who accuse the unsuspecting partner of being selfish and joy-crushing, because it fits their purposes to feather their own nests.

  93. Stig says

    July 21, 2019 at 2:04 am

    ‘Also, they’ll be fine, that’s what welfare is for. The dust will settle and it will all be worked out. Don’t worry about the baby, kids are resilient (this from the woman whose child lives full-time with their father) and if it worries you not seeing your kid enough, go for full custody. I’ll look after them, I’m a great role model. ‘ I hate The Kids Are Resilient – yeah, you’re willing to guinea pig their life paths on your own selfish interests. This from the OW, trying to convince Mr Cheaterpants to leave his family.

  94. Stig says

    July 21, 2019 at 2:11 am

    OW loves those ones like: ‘If your dreams don’t scare you, they’re not big enough’ or ‘Be the person who makes someone believe that kindness still exists in the world’. Yeah, you really affirmed my belief in the goodness of people, hunty. And yeah, I believe you about the scary dreams, but normal people call that fear having a conscience.

  95. Stig says

    July 21, 2019 at 2:45 am

    ‘I’m not leaving our children, I’m leaving you.’
    OW has nothing to do with my unhappiness with you, the timing is just co-incidental, keep her out of it.

  96. Stig says

    July 21, 2019 at 2:48 am

    ‘I had some spare money, so I didn’t think we would miss it’. When I found out by digging that he had given the OW a considerable sum of money (in the thousands) to set herself up in a new apartment, which she had engineered by saying she was being kicked out of her flat (owned by a family member and paying very token rent) and had no money to find a new place, thereby forcing the issue of when he would be coming to live with her.

    I think I have the ultimate Narcissistic comments…

    1) I just want someone that “lights up” when I walk in the room.

    2) I want someone that can’t wait to “jump my bones” as soon as I get home.

    Apparently Asshat had found a splendid supply of kibbles and cake from a woman at work (who is also married). My past is her future. Good luck.

    He married the shack up on December 31, the same year our divorce was final.

    He told our adult children that he married her “for tax purposes”.

  101. WisedUp says

    July 21, 2019 at 7:10 pm

    “I didn’t leave US, WisedUp. I just left YOU.”
    So in Cheater’s concept of “us” as we existed in our 16 year relationship, I personally was not a part of the equation, I guess, because he was able to leave me, but still be “faithful to us.” But with OW instead of me.

    Almost as word-salady as this one, “I am FIERCELY loyal to you, WisedUp!” he said, after I told him I found the evidence of his cheating, which he didn’t deny after his initial eye-rolling laughing at me when I asked him whether he’d been out “on a date with someone” after lying about where he was going and not realizing as the administrator of our cell phone account, I could log in and see the numbers he was calling on the phone I paid for hi to have for his business. So….. if that’s your definition “fiercely loyal,” well obviously I was the disloyal one, not Cheaterpants.

    I know this qualifies as rather sugary pop, but I love “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together,” in which Taylor Swift says “I used to say ‘never say never.'” Yep, exactly. Used to.

    I sure learned to say “never” during my terrible experience with the narc ex! And I’m much better for it. Haha.
