Why can't i stop hoping he'll feel guilty?

Author

I feel heavy. He fumpled me and the feeling is intense. He was okay with putting the blame on me and walking away. He's so insecure...

The worst part is that I still hope for an apology. It feels stupid for waiting that he'll put himself in the vulnerable position. A mutual (her bf is his friend, but she's a good friend of mine and her bf also thinks that my ex is an idiot, lol) said that he's the kind of person that comes back.

I just want him to feel bad... but he knew he was hurting me, he just thought I deserved it. Why do I get to feel the emotional rollercoaster everyday, when he just didnt care... he might have moved on and I want to do the same

that feeling of waiting for someone to finally get it and apologize will exhaust you down to your bones. i spent months consumed by that exact same anger after my ex shifted all the blame onto me and walked away like i meant nothing. it burned so bad knowing he felt totally justified in hurting me while i was left picking up all the pieces.
