Going through a break up is hard.
But trying to deal with your ex after the break up can be even more difficult.
Things might not have ended well and you may be on bad terms with your ex.
This can lead to him saying nasty things behind your back or insulting you to your face. You want to make sure you have smart comebacks at the ready so you can stand up for yourself and not be afraid of bumping into him at a party.
Breaking up with someone can also leave you feeling very bitter.
You might be super angry that he led you on and made you think you were going to live happily ever after or that his feelings changed and he didn’t see a future together.
When something like this happens often you need to let all your emotions out so that you can move on. Even though its immature, saying mean and petty things about your ex boyfriend can sometimes help with this.
A break up can often leave you extremely hurt, almost in pain.
You spent so much of your time and energy on this person only for things to not work out or for him to do something unforgivable that broke your heart into a million pieces. You want him to know how much you hurt him but more than that, you want him to feel the hurt you’re feeling.
Other times you want to move on but your ex won’t stop contacting you, whether it be by text or social media.
If he’s not getting the picture you might need to stop being nice and say some things to shut down the conversation and make him realize you’re not gong to get back together.
No matter what’s happened, here are all the mean, hurtful and insulting things you want to say to your ex.
Note:
Sometimes saying mean things to an ex is a way of coping with a breakup.
While its understandable that you want to get him back you should never go out of your way to say something hurtful to anyone.
It’s slightly different if your ex boyfriend is insulting you or won’t leave you alone, then these smart comebacks are great to have, but otherwise just saying these mean things about your ex to yourself should be enough to make you feel better.
Smart comebacks for your ex
If your relationship ended badly and your ex is sending you text messages, or you’re likely to bump into him in person, it’s a good idea to have a few sassy comebacks up your sleeve.
Here are some smart comebacks you can use that are guaranteed to leave your ex speechless.
1. I’m sorry what language are you speaking? It sounds like bullsh*t.
2. I don’t care what you think about me. I don’t think about you at all.
3. You might still want me but you’ll have to get in line.
4. I love the sound you make when you shut up.
5. Oh sorry, was I supposed to be offended?
6. I’ve been called worse… your girlfriend.
7. Literally all I hear is “blah, blah, blah”.
8. You must have mistaken me for someone who gives a sh*t.
9. Your loss babe.
Hurtful things to say to an ex
If you were in a serious relationship that you hoped would last long term, you might want to say something to your ex boyfriend that you know will hurt him as much as you’re hurting.
Especially if your ex cheated on you.
You want to say something that you know will really affect him deeply so he understands what you’re going through.
The best way to do this is to say something about your relationship that you now really believe to be true. Its better to say something serious and mature rather than something petty if you want to hurt him.
Here are some examples of hurtful things you could say to your ex.
10. I wish I could go back in time and stop myself from meeting you.
11. I didn’t love you. I just said it because I didn’t have anything else to say.

13. Thank you for showing me everything I don’t want in a man.
14. You’re the biggest disappointment of my life.
15. I hope I never have to see you again.
16. I don’t have time to hate you but you deserve to be hated.
17. I’m glad I didn’t cry over you.
