Should I take this personal?

[BarenakedLady]

My STBE likes to crank this song up with a cocky smile on his face. I know it's subtle and all. How should I take this? :sarcasm:

I wake up every evening, with a big smile on my face
And it never feels out of place

And your still probably working at a 9 to 5 pace
I wonder how bad that tastes

When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell

Now where's your picket fence love
And where's that shiny car,
And did it ever get you far

You've never seem so tense love
I've never seen you fall so hard,
Do you know where you are?

And truth be told I miss you
And truth be told I'm lying

When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
If you find a man that's worth a damn and treats you well
Then he's a fool, you're just as well, hope it gives you hell

Hope it gives you hell

Tomorrow you'll be thinking to yourself
Where'd it all go wrong, the list goes on and on

And truth be told I miss you
And truth be told I'm lying

When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
If you find a man that's worth a damn and treats you well
Then he's a fool, you're just as well, hope it gives you hell

Now you'll never see, what you've done to me
You can take back your memories they're no good to me
And here's all your lies,
You can look me in the eyes
With that sad sad look that you wear so well

When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
If you find a man that's worth a damn and treats you well
Then he's a fool, you're just as well, hope it gives you hell

When you see my face
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way
Hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you hear this song and sing along, oh you'll never tell
Then you're the fool, I'm just as well
Hope it gives you hell
When you hear this song I hope that it will give you hell
And when you sing along I hope that it puts you through hell

1. Heh - I'd chuckle.

Yeah, he isn't exactly Mr. Subtle, is he?

[BarenakedLady]

2. Not even close.

;)

[GOPisEvil]

4. Well, if you were ever going to have a moment of doubt,

this should erase it. :D

[flvegan]

3. Ohh, mental abuse. Stay classy, STBE of BNL.

Stupid douchebag.

[BarenakedLady]

10. Meh.

I can take it.

Classy? Hmmmm. Can I buy that at Walmart? :rofl:

[MajorChode]

5. At least it's not this one

[BarenakedLady]

11. Have you seen my ass?

LOL! :rofl:

[MajorChode]

15. Is it phat?

[BarenakedLady]

20. It is fat...not sure about phat.

:P

[MajorChode]

22. That's the way they're supposed to be

Built for comfort, not for speed.

[Danger Mouse]

6. You know what? You're incredible. He's an incredible ass.

Big contrast, huh?

[BarenakedLady]

12. You may be biased.

But thanks anyway. :D

[Danger Mouse]

16. I am definitely biased.

But I love you, so I'm allowed to be biased. :hug:

[BarenakedLady]

18. Awwww.

I love you too. :hug:

[leftyclimber]

7. Wow. That dude is acting like a serious turd.

That's how you should take it. At least from my perspective.

Try not to let him get to you, BNL. You're worth more than that. :hug:

[BarenakedLady]

13. Thank you.

Much appreciated. :)

[Haole Girl]

8. I don't know BNL

Hopefully, it's not some kind of twisted mind game. :hug:

[BarenakedLady]

14. He can be mad.

It's ok. I can handle it.

:hug:

[Lil Missy]

9. He's being an asshole. Emotional abuse. Ignore him.

[BarenakedLady]

17. It's just guilt.

He's not a bad guy really. We just aren't meant to be together.

[Lil Missy]

26. No it's not just guilt. He's being an asshole.

[DS1]

19. What a vain douchebag

however, it just means he's having trouble coping himself :)

[BarenakedLady]

21. Probably

No one is going through this unscathed, that is for sure.

[cherish44]

23. He's just going through a lot of emotions right now

Break ups aren't pretty, lots of people need vent. Here's the video I had up on my web page while I was going through my divorce. In my mind, "God Money" was his asshole lawyer who was making our divorce WAY more contentious than it had to be. Anyway I got over it. I really don't even think about my ex strongly one way or the other anymore. But for a time I frickin hated him for putting me through this crap.

24. You're a person, right? Of course you should take it

personally. It kills me when people say "This isn't personal." Dead giveaway that it is.

Good thing he's your STBE.

[cherish44]

25. Take it personally but realize it's probably a temporary anger

Like I said in the above post, break ups are emotional events and can bring out the worst in people. But eventually things will calm down. You're both hurting and might do and say some things that yeah, when you look back will say, "I was really acting like an ass wasn't I?" God knows I've had a few of those moments. But time heals all wounds.

[DemBones DemBones]

27. Time wounds all heels, too.

:evilgrin:

[ThomCat]

28. Wow. He's a bit of an asshole, isn't he?

:eyes:

I'm sorry you didn't get away from him sooner. :hug:

[Richard Steele]

29. What a tool. "S" isn't "S" enough, IMHO. nm

[miss_american_pie]

30. Hee

He made me laugh anyway. ;)
