Last night after starting this thread I really felt better. It helped to get some of the anger out.

So after another night of “fun” family dog poo, give me the picture.

::deb stomps on puppy picture, spits in its face, then tears it into itty bitty pieces, then kicks the pieces::

Gosh I feel better.

(Replaces Pic of Puppy with pic of ex-gf)

This is for telling me you loved me, and at the end taking it back.

(Rips pic in half)

This is for cheating on me with your ex-boyfriend

(Rips it in half again)

This is for going out with one of my friends, after you told me you weren’t even looking for a relationship.

(Rips in half again)

And this is for fucking up any trust I had in any other relationship I will have.

(Tearing up, ripping in half again)

And this is for me.

(Sets pic on fire, puts it in a meat grinder, and yells at it, crying and sniffling, for two days.)

Fuck you. Your shit comes before no one elses.

Thanks everybody for reading that. The more people that know I wasn’t the bad guy, the better I feel.
