So the ex-bf is completely out of the picture. I could not handle the uncertainty of his behaviors. One day he likes the way I dressed, the next day I was begging for attention. Once he started with the insecurities, I had to let it go. Truthfully, it did not hurt me as much as I thought it would. And that is because I had falling in love with someone else.
I fell in love with a woman. She is the most funny, beautiful and caring person I have ever met. She is strong, confident and dorky at the same time. She is everything I ever wanted in a person and she is ME!! I FELL IN LOVE with MYSELF again. I forgot the person I used to be and went searching for her and I found her. I never want to lose her again. If that meant giving up someone else for the sack of myself, then I would do what is necessary to keep me as a I am.
I guess sometimes you have to be selfish. I cannot sacrifice my success to make someone else fell secure in themselves. I cannot sacrifice my peace of mind to give some one a peace of mind. I just could not keep living my life through other peoples wants, hopes and desires. I want to live my life for me. I have wants, hopes and desires and I plan on making them happen.

Good for you darlin'. I remember that relief, flooding relief when I asked my alcoholic husband of 18 years to leave because I had filed for divorce and assistance....I could wake-up and know exactly how the adult in the house was going to behave - because it was me!
Great attitude. Keep up the good fight.

Love yourself always....I'm constantly telling others to "take care of yourself before you take care of others." (mostly financial stuff with my family/friends), but anyway, it applies to all aspects of life-also preaching to myself LOL. For me, I placed myself on the back burner (still tend to do it) to my husband and kids. I "let myself go" for them. BUT, if I truly LOVED and CARED for myself, I would have taken much better care so I can be healthy for them! So, absolutely love yourself, then you can truly take care and love others just as much.
And in regards to the irrational ex bf....when you have such confidence with yourself, you will not put up with that mess. That's a great quality to have!
