You seem to be a little too happy that she's doing, what you would classify as, "worse off" than she was with you. You ask, what could she be thinking, stooping this low. I am left wondering... how happy must she have not been with you, to consider this a step up?
It's almost uncomfortable, the level of emotion you assert on something that only used to have something to do with you. I would leave it alone, and not throw stones, lest the karma bus comes back around because they forgot to hit someone.
My ex is failing. Miserably. But he was spiraling downhill long before I decided to back up and leave. I try not to think about it.
People will rise or fall, without you. To assume otherwise, would be vain.
Gloating can be hard to resist and we all dabble in a bit of it here and there when it comes up, human nature I suppose. Done it myself so I cant call you out on it but being old I can tell you that karma has a way of coming back at you. You wont be free until you let it go, between here and there is only despite and it serves no master.
recently talked to my ex. first time in over year.
lets just say things have spun 180.
i've gotten another job, doing quite well. got it barely a month after she dumped me....(via text)
she got with a guy....that has FIVE kids. he doesnt work, no car, no place of his own. in his 40's
my ex MOVED HIM INTO HER GRANDMA'S WITH HER
yea....u read it right. i got dumped by a woman with no house or apartment of her own.
she apologized profusely saying it was all her fault that she left me etc etc.
she recently got injured at work and was off work for awhile, her dude flipped out askin when she was gonna be going back to work cuz he needed money.
she also traded in her car to get a soccer mom van for all of his kids.
oh and she's marrying him next year............good luck with that.......
can we say karma?
im actually hoping someone in her family sat her down and said "why did u leave the last guy and get with this dude?"
has anyone else ever had their ex fall upon "hard times" so to speak?
It can really leave one scratching their head, When someone leaves and winds up with someone like this, Vs someone who is works, Is responsible and productive. This guy is clearly sponging off of her- It's not karma though, it's choice. This was her choice. You are doing well and it's understandable you pondering the why of all of it. Don't. Keep doing well. If she wants to stay with him, It's her path to walk. This will drive you nuts if you think about it day in and day out. I would suggest not making contact with her a regular thing. Focus on you.

If a person that I loved (at any time in my life) fell on hard times, I don't think I'd be so gleeful about it. But that's just me. I'm still there for my ex, and she's there for me. As much as possible, without blurring lines.
