A Guy Grades His Cheating Ex’s Apology Letter and Posts It on Twitter

If you’ve ever been on the bad side of a breakup, you have more chances to be petty. It doesn’t matter if the breakup was amicable; there’s going to be that small voice nagging you not to take the high road.

There are different ways to end a relationship, and there are also many ways to go about your life afterward. Some exes leave you for good, while others stick around to haunt you, making it difficult to move on from them.

Relationships that end with issues like cheating are more likely to amplify your petty side. There’s that lingering resentment that cancels out the polite thing to do if your ex tries to reconnect, such as when they write you a letter.

Twitter user Nick Lutz’s ex is an example of this; she chose to give him an apology letter. It consisted of multiple back-to-back pages of explanations and confessions about her lingering feelings for him.

In one part of the letter, Lutz’s ex stated that she knew he didn’t want anything to do with her, and frankly, she was right. Nick decided to read the whole thing, only to grade it like a school paper and correct the mistakes.

He then posted the letter along with the corrections made on Twitter and captioned it, “When your ex writes you an apology letter, so you grade it to send it back.” There’s no evidence that he actually sent it back, but people replied with various opinions.

Despite positive comments, there are still people who think that what OP did is debatable—whether it was good or bad to put his ex on blast. Although he didn’t reveal her identity, some of his followers might have an idea.

Additionally, the letter was personal, so it really was just a petty move for OP. But it might just be a small payback to give himself more reasons to move on.
