I wish my ex meets someone exactly like him

I don't mean this with hate or malice, there's no grudge here. But sometimes, I find myself wishing that my ex meets someone exactly like himself.

He ended things last year, and looking back on how I was treated, I can't help but think, maybe if he goes through what I went through, he'll realize how wrong it was. Maybe then, he'll understand the hurt he caused.

I don't think I'm a bad person for feeling this way, it's not that I want him to suffer, but there's a part of me that wants justice or at least acknowledgment of what I endured, I gave so much of myself, and in return, I felt dismissed, disrespected, and unappreciated.

But deep down, I know that wishing for someone else to experience my pain doesn't actually heal me.

I want to reach a place where I don't feel the need for validation from him, where I'm fully at peace with what happened and focused bn my own growth.

Healing is messy, and maybe this is just a step in the process. For now though, this is how I feel so SCREWEWWW him. But, I hope one day, I can look back and realize I've truly let it all go.
