Ex-boyfriend: Abusive, manipulative, valued a video game over our relationship, every aspect of our lives together was a double standard (he was allowed to drink, smoke, and go out with friend, I couldn't), never listened to anything I said no matter what it was, and in general, was terrible. Only good thing that came from that relationship was that he ended up toning down my bitchy qualities.
Fiance: None of these things. Loving, actually cares about me and listens, is involved in my life, we can joke around and neither of us have ever felt this comfortable and relaxed around another person. We have flaws that we're working on, but we're doing it together and helping each other.
And saturday night, we were jokingly arguing about something stupid, and I accidentally call him my ex's name. If there's one thing I want to forget, it's that this asshole even exists. And I go and call my fiance, by this guy's name. Even he was kinda mad, 'cause he knows all about how my ex treated me, and I've shown him proof of it. It may have just been a slip up, but I'm still pissed as fuck about it.
Next time, call him a pet name when you're mad at him. Establish names for different situations. Honey if he's being nice, Dick when he's being one, StressBall when you tell him your problems, and PunchingBag when you're mad at him.

Fucker needs to get the fuck out of my head.
