BUT BUT BUT, I am secretly SO F*CKING happy, that my replacement was the DUMPER. Not the DUMPEE. The DUMPER. And that the ex is so upset. And that they're apart! "So this guy doesn't worship the ground you walk on(like me)?", is what I wanted to say....but of course I didn't.

I KNOW that that is mean, and I'm NOT a mean person,
I feel MEAN, and that makes me feel badly about myself. But I'm just so happy that their relationship is over. I guess only for hopes of reconciliation(that, and I completely changed several things about myself....honestly, I became the "best me" that I ever have been(and was happy for the changes), and it still wasn't enough).
You are not mean. If you were mean then you would have sent the text you describe but you didn't. You are, however, human and it's perfectly fine to feel this way if she dumped you and now he's done the same to her. It's very honest of you to admit feeling like that. I challenge anyone not to feel the same (at least a little) and if they say they don;t for at least 5 minutes and that they're always a "bigger" person, then I may even go so far as to say they're lying.
