The fact he didn't like baseball should have been your first clue.

...or the fact that he tends to demolish the bathroom every time he showers

It was a giant red flag. From now on I will refer to this ex as "giant red flag" because there were so many of them.

He hated all sports. Period. I barely know what is going on in football right now because of this.

I could tell so many red flag stories abrout him but they'd just make me look stupid for hooking up with him in the first place.

Being rid of him also means not blaming yourself for his stupidity.

I'm still in shock because of the bathroom...I'm just having a hard time understanding how a person can do that.

His plunger history was pretty stunning, too.

Wow. How did you hold all this in, doc?

Honestly it was because I was trying to determine if he was just inexperienced with life and needed behavior modification or if he was..um...incapable of learning.

The plunger thing? He destroyed his own towels at his own apartment. So I was leaning towards thinking he just needs to learn how things work-he isn't completely insensitive to my things (because he destroyed his own things because of his um...inexperience?).

But he is completely resistant to behavior modification. He will tell me I can't do xyz on my taxes or when I am remodeling and be ADAMANT about it when he has never filed his own taxes or owned a home or picked up a hammer.

He is a a total know it all (who means well I THINK) who just doesn't know [expletive].

If he doesn't like ANY sports then he was obviously retarded,don't know how you put up with him as long as you did.

He sounds like a narcissist, although some of that behavior sounds like retaliation.
