The things you DON'T miss about a relationship

NOMEXSHREK Not lowering the toilet seat is an unsanitary problem. Have you ever gone to sit on it in the middle of the night and had your ass hit that cold porcelin rim? God knows what creepy germfest you just transfered to your body. Secondly, flushing the toilet with the seat up spreads a fine mist of bacteria that is totally disgusting.. Most people keep thier toothbrushes near the sink and I know I don't want fecal or urine tainted mist infecting what I stick in my mouth. It's a courtesy that everyone should consider. Put the damn seat down.

-Trying to figure out what the hell they want... I don't do subtle!
-Wondering why she didn't come home last night, lol
- Communication breakdown.
- Giving up time with friends and getting "wrapped up"...ok maybe for the first 6-8 months this is ok ;)
- Too much of the same thing - "married but living separate" isn't necessarily a bad idea is it?

I don't miss:

The unceasing yammering

Letting her friends and family constantly throw me under the bus while looking the other way in hopes that "it will work out"

Dumb questions

Her inability to shut her f***ing cell phone off for 1 minute

The drama queen episodes over absolutely nothing

The clingy stuff, meanwhile accusing me of being clingy

When everything is going well those are all the things you LOVE. If you start hating these things, then its time to go.

I miss not being in a relationship.

There is nothing I can think of that I don't miss about it.

The guy I had my last LT relationship with was a very solid 6'2". About the only thing I do not miss is him taking the covers in the middle of the night and me waking up and having to search for another blanket!!

well, there are MANY things I do not miss about my ex as a person; i won't even go there
i'm thinking the OP meant everyday things that could be happening in any relationship regardless of the individual personalities

so taking it that way, I'd say:

I don't miss having to eat a certain meal at a certain time just because it was planned that way

I don't miss having to explain where I'm going, or why I'll be home late from work

I don't miss having to argue over whose family we spend xmas, tgiving, etc at this year

I don't miss him making fun of the shows I want to watch or the music I want to listen to (well, that probably fits in the "specific to my ex category.....sorry)

I just don't miss having to take another person's needs or wants into consideration right now. I enjoy the freedom of coming and going as I please without explanation or arguments

And as someone else stated, I simply do not miss HIM.....not for one second

I don't miss her mess.
Don't miss being ignored while she's on the computer with her GF
Don't miss having nothing done around the house because she's on the computer
Don't miss the cat hair all over the place (I do miss the cat's thought, they were pretty cool)
Don't miss the guilt trips for going out on my own because she's "not up to going out"

All these reasons are why the single life is heaven. Sure it gets lonely sometimes but in all there is just toooooooooooo much stress, pressure, guilt, wondering what he or she is thinking. So having sex just isn't all that important when it comes to all of those cons

finding the right temperature!

On the top ten reasons (are there only ten?) why my last relationship would never work out, we couldn't agree on temperature of the house or car. I'm a throw the windows open, hate flies, but moths are okay, kind. I pretty much live inside with a similar temp to outside in warmer months, even in the dry 100's. Keep the air moving with a fan and dress accordingly. I hate the cold, but don't really like closed air heat, sun on the windows is best. He wants it toasty hot in winter, freezing in summer and all the windows closed. My new place has HUGE windows that open WIDE and tall ceilings so it's like living outdoors with all the convenience of being indoors. I love it. If he lived here, those windows would never open.

My last BF...who taught me that not all men are scum sucking slime...
I don't miss having to share my time when I feel like staying home...then again I am a selfish woman
I don't miss feeling guilty when I don't want to share my time...
I don't miss feeling like I have to come up with an excuse to not share my time, so that I don't hurt his feelings...

I do miss...
Always having my door opened, never being lied to, always having someone to talk to and confide in, always being included, his family, the way he always touched me no matter what, never in a year being made to cry, how safe I felt with him, baseball game nights and his extreme patience with me interrupting ever 2 mins with "why did they do that or who is that?".. the fact that when it was time to go our seperate ways (we just grew apart and I moved to another state) that he took it like a man and didn't make me feel horrible... (we still talk every few days)

Most other ex's
The lies
The no show no call when we have plans
The unending computer games that were only supposed to take an hour
The cheating
The hiding me because the exwife doesn't know about me yet
The arguing.. I HATE to argue!!
The way it was easy for him to want to do his own thing but if I wanted to then I got the never ending blowup of the phone
The guilt trips..
The low self esteem
The being accused of cheating (with my exhusband who is my best friend as well as was his friend)
Having to sleep in the wet spot... LOL sorry had to say it

I also do not miss thinking I am so in love that this is the one only to find out that after a year I am bored and ready to be alone again... At least I have finally realized that being a woman I want what I want until I get it... then I realize I didn't really want it in the first place.....

Tried to come up with something I don't miss.
Nope, still wish he hadn't died.
I love everything about being in a meaningful relationship.
Has to be the right guy, though.
Neither of us should have to make many compromises to have our lives blend.

Constant checking up on me.
Getting mad any time I want to do something with a friend.
Not wanting me to do anything that she does not enjoy doing.
****ing about my way of doing the dishes.
Only getting sex once in a week if I am lucky.
****ing about how I comb my hair.
The list goes on.

I don't miss having to keep pushing him back over on his side of the bed
I don't miss his personal hygiene routines (or lack thereof)
I don't miss having to cook stuff that I don't like to eat or if I'm not hungary
I don't miss the holier than thou attitude that he liked to lord over me
I don't miss the silent treatment that I would get for about 2 weeks about every 6 weeks
I don't miss his dog hogging most of the bed and not to mention her fleas and doggie smell
I don't have to get up at 4am just because he does everyday just because he does I DON"T
And last but not least I don't have to have an unwanted sexual practice forced on me just because HE got off on it!!!

Soooooo,what are we on this site for again?????I miss don't miss anything about my ex.
Except my lovely daughter.
i think it has to do with alot of things especially oncewe get older,we dont want to ever put up with certain traits again. and do become accustom to being"alone" as it feels safe at times to do what we want when we want etc etc.
Everyone wants that special relationship,the touch ,the kiss its all good
Hope everyone finds whom they can't live without this time without the grief.

Can't miss something I never had in the 1st place

I was the means and a method to climb the social ladder to the comfort zone he was seeking

He is someone else's problem now

She is an utter fool if she thinks she has gained some prize, Wait till she discovers she has been hooked and crooked too ..Just like the 4 woman before her

He makes all Capricorn men look bad

It's a shame .. ..orange is not his color

Hmm ok don't miss:

~ everything being about HIM all the time
~ expecting a hell of a lot more than he ever gave (emotionally especially)
~ the ex wife constant drama
~ the kid drama
~ psychotic/paranoid outbursts
~ accusations that I was cheating (he was the one that did!)
~ never getting a decent nights sleep because of his snoring or getting drunk
~ his alcohol problem
~ his violent & abusive outbursts
~ the guilt trips

Ahhhh a lot said for being single sometimes ~ certainly better than being with the wrong person

Some of mine are being expected to change. We all do but the expectation is just rude.
Partners unwilling to except any perspective other than thier own.
Know it alls.
Smothering under the guies of cuddling. The arm and the head over the chest is ok but throwing a leg and a hip is not.
Walking on eggshells.
Fighting.
Only 3 bj's per year: Valentines Day, Birthday and Christmas.
All of my conserns or perspectives being writen off immediately. Case in point I'm allergic to cats my last SO I lived with bought 2 full well knowing I'm allergic. After she wouldn't bend on that one I asked her just don't let the cat in the bedroom. I needed one room I could breath easy in. The cat was in there the next day. I asked her not to have the cat on our bed. That too was blatently ignored as she would play with it on our bed.
