I broke up with Sally to develop the relationship with my STBXW!
Quote
I made my decision in a vacuum and just announced to her the second time (the first breakup was for silly reasons) that we were done. She told me that it devastated her. I never knew.
Uhhhh, what? You dumped her for another woman out of the blue and it didn’t occur to you that she would be upset by that?
This is a prime example of your lack of empathy. Did you ever put yourself in her shoes and imagine how she might have felt?
I’m surprised she gave you another chance after that.
