its cause he's angry and/or still bitter about what happened. My ex trash talked all of his exes, especially the girl before me who had been 2 years before me. I mean I'm sure she was as crazy as he says she was since she was the one he trash talked the most..but even then I'm not sure as she was someone he planned to marry so who knows. I even found myself saying to him one day "so...am I crazy too then?"..in reference to him saying all women are nuts and he just said "well no...not yet"...thanks. He definitely trash talked me on social media after our break ups but I just ignored it. If he's anything with his current g/f as he was with me, he probably trash talks me to her too. Poor girl and he should be ashamed of himself, but at least I don't have to deal with it now..she does!

I find that any men that I date, they never ask about my past unless it gets far enough and even then, its a generic "what was your longest relationship?" type of question. I never say much about his character and how our relationship was, that's just too personal and not something I want any date knowing. If I ever get asked why it didn't work out, I'll just simply say "he didn't love me enough to stick around" which is the truth. no need for trash talking. I don't understand prodding into someone's past. My friends insist that knowing about someoen's past will tell you all you need to know about them. umm..noo...who they are today is what you need to know. I think all we need to know about the past, is if this person has ever had a serious relationship, or not as that can speak to who they are in some ways.

Its is a defensive mechanism. If you still thought highly of the person you would feel a greater sense of loss. Its easier to leave a loser or a tramp, even if its just in your mind.

Yes all men trash their ex gf/wives..
Well, we need a few sub-forums for Relationship according to shades of skin color, just like flavors of salsa at your favorite Mexican restaurant, so why not?

I left my ex because he became controlling. After I left him he reunited with his ex, married her, now they have a baby on the way. This all happened within 3 months. Our break up was extremely bad. It involved me calling the police on him and he got investigated by child protective services. Now 5 months later he is bashing me to people I work with. We both work for a large company with several locations we can both work at periodically. I get calls from ppl in these other locations from ppl tellin me he's trash talking me and bringing up the police Incident. After 5 months why would he still talk about me and what happened if he was now moved on?

Thank you all for your input. He is "out of sight out of mind" at this point. I don't deal with head spinning issues for too long. Also, to be honest it could be so many reasons, this is being done..I will never know. The main thing is it doesn't matter because he is not my problem to deal with any longer. Thank you for your input though.
