Supposing that he bought you a gift that you never bothered to use then you later found out he taken back after your breakup, how would you feel?

Given that you didn't much care for the guy or the gift, it wouldn't bother you that much. I don't picture a normal person raging about it. Even if it bothered you a little, would you run screaming to the neighbors and anyone who would listen?

I think not.

His behavior is NOT normal or appropriate. I hope you're not still confused about him.

I am hoping you did not give that asshole his bike back. The trip to Mexico sounds a whole lot better plus, I have found that getting out of town helps in your NC efforts and obsessing.

how textbook they are? Again you are being shown a textbook example of what happens when you DARE stand up for yourself and no longer bow at their feet and do exactly what they wish because it's so All About Them.

What a f'n wimp and lowlife of a man to crow to neighbors and others about a bike PAID FOR BY A GIRLFRIEND THAT HE BROKE UP WITH AND SAID HE DID NOT LOVE that he didn't get to keep. Believe me your neighbors see this for what it is worth. Please don't worry about it! He looks exactly like the whiney baby asshat he is! What a huge wimp!!

I sold something of Freak Boy's too. He actually bought it for my house, but he was the only one who used it. I remember feeling a little weird about it as well, but I went with my gut at to this day I am so glad I did. I needed the money and he was out of the picture, by his own choice.

I hope you sell the bike soon and do something nice for yourself with the money. I am sorry you went through this but I know, Narcd, that one day soon you will be happy to be free of the chaos and dead weight this person brought into your life.

Sincerely,
(not) spinning. AND SO VERY GRATEFUL FOR THAT

He can SUCK IT! You bought it...you have the receipt...it's YOURS under the law. WHAT Christmas present? Prove it.

So you changed your mind...happens all the time. Your conscience is probably going to niggle you a bit because you don't do stuff like this. Tell your conscience to shut up. He was probably going to give it to his NEW girlfriend...so generous...a brand new bike. He probably already set it up, "Hey babe how'd you like a new bike?" Haha...how's he gonna explain that?

What kind of person gives a present and takes it back? The kind who was lied to, used, exploited, NARCED.

A little taste of his own medicine won't hurt him at all.

It wasnt a real relationship so you didnt have to give real gifts. He was showing his true colors....can you say projection? It only matters when it matters to them, they are all the same. Dont worry about it, he already proved he didnt really want it, he was prolly going to sell it for money...thats what the x did.
