Why His Ex Stories Sound Like Tall Tales

Listen carefully when he talks about his exes. Are they all “crazy”? Was every breakup “her fault”? Does every story sound like a tall tale where he’s the poor, innocent cowboy who just got wronged over and over? That’s not storytelling, that’s scapegoating.

If every ex is the villain, the common denominator is him. Men who rewrite history to make themselves the hero aren’t reflecting, they’re deflecting. And trust me, if he’s talking about them that way, he’ll talk about you the same when you’re gone.

Tall tales make for good rodeo yarns, but they’re not good relationship foundations. Don’t get dazzled by the drama. Look for accountability. If he can’t own his part in the past, he won’t own his part in your future.

Tessa’s Final Thought:
If every ex was a villain, don’t wait to become the next chapter in his tall tale.
