1) He didn't forget my birthday, but didn't get me anything for it, or for xmas, even after I threw him the biggest suprise 21st birthday party any of our friends had ever seen. (They still talk about how cool it was that I suprised him with friend from all over the state) That taught me not to expect the world and you won't be disapointed when you don't get it.
2) If one of our couple friends wasn't fighting, we were. There always had to be drama, it didn't matter who it was. That taught me that drama sucks, and I don't need it in my life at any cost, it just causes stress.
3) He resented the fact that I went back to school and he was still stuck at home working in retail. I learned that I have to put myself first or I won't ever reach my goals. No one can ever stop me from getting where I want to get.
All in all, him being the dick that he was taught me that i can do better and I shouldn't be afraid of aiming as high as I want.
Seems like we've all learned to be the wonderful women everyone already knew we were.
