Do you guys appologize to your ex?

I have had anxiety, depression, a bit of depersonalization for quite sometime. I was on meds 2009-2010 but stopped and it has gradually gotten worse. Most of my romantic relationships since then have been quite a bit of bickering and misunderstandings involved. I over think things so much and are overly emotional. The woman I dated broke things off a few months back. Too much bickering and not romantically interested anymore it hurts but I guess It all makes since.
I'm not a bad guy and most females want to remain cordial and in contact. Seeing how I know I have a problem that started before her or many females in the past...

My question is do you guys ever apologize or at least man/woman up to your ex that you know your behavior was, stand offish, unaffectionate.... (considering if you still have contact with them )

Yea, I've called my ex before and apologized for certain things. Unfortunately, it's only in retrospect when you realize you were in the wrong.

Yeah same here I know I was wrong in my reactions on a few equations. I'm thinking to call her and tell her, I realized and conscious of my behavior.

No.

I'm pretty sure that whatever happened at the time is a non-issue at the moment, and it's pointless to stir things up again. I think it's implied that we're different people now... and if it isn't, I don't want to know. I really don't think I've ever done something so unforgivably hurtful that I would ever need to apologize or feel guilty about it.

I apologized for my poor behaviour shortly after I realized I was being an a*se in the first place. That's how you get make-up sex, after all.

If it's only been a few months, then I think it'd be fine to call her and tell her. Just don't go into it with any expectations.
 
Apologies mean you've done wrong. No, I wouldn't do it. So you weren't right for her? It ain't your fault or her fault I don't reckon, it just wasn't meant to be is all.

Nope, I'm not the one who should be doing the apologising considering the mental and physical abuse I endured. I did get a half arsed apology off them years later but it didn't seem so sincere.
 
just today i drove past an ex, and instead of offering to give them a lift, I gave them the ol' one finger salute as i drove by......i know its a mean thing to do, but in the very short time we dated she managed to ruin a very good friendship i had with someone and then broke up with me a day later, and it hurt me bigtime.

You should take the high road, not sink at her level. You trying to hurt that person makes you no better than her.

Well, in a fit of blind anger, right after the break up,I told my ex off over text because of how apathetic she was before and after the break up. I didn't need to apologize, but I did because I wanted to remain the bigger person.

If my ex wanted to talk to me, I would definitely apologise. I am still sorry after a few years for having her put up with me.
