Today, I felt like letting my ex know just how I felt about all the bullshit he put me through. I dug up his number, typed a long paragraph with lots of pain and emotion, and sent it. The reply was, "No wonder he broke up with you." Thanks, whoever has that number now. FML

Today, I wanted to rub my success in my ex's face to get her back for breaking my heart. I typed the perfect email, included every detail of opening my own business, buying my own home and cleverly intertwined insults. A few hours later, she replied, "That’s nice. Who’s this?" FML
Today, I wrote to the guy whom I am in love with to tell him how I feel about him. He was very calm and told me to give him some time to think it over. Later in the day, I found out he blocked my number and rejected me on Facebook. But, the worst part is he then texted me saying, "This is my reply". FML
Today, I was making out with my boyfriend. When we took a break and went downstairs, he checked the mail. He had received a letter from his ex-girlfriend, which he opened in front of me. He then began sobbing on my shoulder and broke up with me. He still had to drive me home. FML
Today, my ex-boyfriend called my parents to let them know I broke up with him. He was sobbing. FML
Today, my ex got dumped by his girlfriend. Seeing my opportunity, I sent him a song I'd written for him, about how much I still love him. He sent it on to the girl who had just dumped him, claiming he had written it. They're now back together. FML
Today, my long-distance boyfriend broke up with me. Tomorrow he should be getting the super long love letter that I poured my heart into and sent him a week ago. FML
Today, my girlfriend broke up with me through a text message. In retaliation, I started typing a long list of everything I hate about her. Just as I pressed the send button, she text me again saying "Just joking. You know I'd never leave you. Love you babe :)" FML
Today, my soon-to-be-ex emailed me a pic of them with the person whom they left me for. After I didn't respond, they called just to say, "Fuck off and die." Four days previously, I got laid off from my job. I'm getting too old for this stuff. FML
Today, I sent everyone a text on my phone book saying, "Happy Star Wars Day!!! May the Fourth be with you!!" I forgot to uncheck my ex-girlfriend's number. She texted back, "One of the many reasons I broke up with you." FML
Today, my jerk of an ex messaged to apologize for dumping me two weeks ago. I took the high road and was overtly polite and friendly, hoping to end things civil. Our conversation ended when he casually mentioned he is moving in with his new girlfriend. FML

OP didn't get the response she wanted but I think she got the one she needed

I was pretty butthurt after a big breakup. but she moved on pretty quickly and had like 3 girlfriends by the time I finally felt ready to date. everybody heals at different paces. but sending angry texts/calls etc will only aggravate you when you don't get a response that you expected. exes are exes for a reason. don't wish anyone bad and move on. closure is always ideal; but you usually don't get it and will always wonder "what if." but don't let that rule your life. I don't have a girlfriend right now, but I'm sure things will open up soon. I'm sure it will for you too OP :)

I can understand wanting to show him you've done better for yourself, but if it's been that long something is going to get lost in the message. If it's been that long has gone by it just seems weird/creepy and doesn't really seem like you are doing better if you are going out of your way to do so. Also, messaging your ex just to vent and brag about how much better things are now? I can't imagine what sort of vindication you thought he was going to give you.

This sounds like an obsessed girlfriend meme...

If its been long enough since you two have spoken, let alone broke up that you actually had to dig for his number and not know that he's changed it. Then odds are its been too long for you to still have all that animosity towards him. Move on.

You deserved it, for trying to make your ex feel bad
