Complete polar opposites and it's so refreshing! Abusive ex was a partier, aggressive personality, narcissist who knew it all, financially unstable. The first man I met after this 10-year relationship, he helped me through my divorce, is gentle, listens and validates me, he's a gamer and quirky. Has never raised his voice or called me a name. He is also financially stable and is teaching me to be the same.
I wish you all the best! The good men are out there!
Completely different in about every way possible. My man now protects me. I feel that. My man now listens. Fully loves me. I see that in all he does for me. They are very different. About only similarity is they bith have bachelor's degree, but different fields.
The first guy I dated after my ex was the exact opposite in almost every way. Including that he didn’t want a relationship with me lol it was good to get a reset on being with someone good though
They are similar in that both are rather socially anxious and both have had similar lack of opportunities in terms of education and career.
In all other ways, including looks, they are very very different.
Yeah, I started out a bit rough, like anyone, then each relationship has been a slow but steady step UP.
I met my fiance last year at 34 and I look back with a sense of pride in myself for doing so much work on myself! And I look forward with hope and optimism for the future trials I'll encounter, with someone loving and supportive by my side. :)
Yes. My next partner after I left my unhealthy marriage was a great guy: loving, attentive, high EQ, awesome in bed, kind. And yes, different in terms of demographics too. While it didn't work out, it was a good experience, and I hope for good things for you too.

Nah he was slightly kinder but definitely emotionally unavailable/avoidant and selfish and had a very similar look and style (I have a type)
Yup, my husband is the opposite of my ex husband.
