Women Who Villainize Their Exes After A Breakup - A Last of the Nice Guys Special Episode
About this episode
The episode discusses why women may villainize their exes after a breakup as a coping mechanism.
Women may villainize their exes after a breakup due to a combination of emotional pain, self-protection, or a defense mechanism to avoid taking responsibility for their own role in the breakup. It's easier to see a past partner as "bad" to justify the breakup rather than to acknowledge their personal shortcomings. Outro Instrumental - "Prelude To War" by Bear McCreary
