ANSWERS
Mostly As: Your ex was a garden-variety wanker, such as you would meet on an IPA factory tour or at a Coldplay concert. But they’re not around to defend themselves so if you want to make some stuff up to horrify your friends, go for it.
Mostly Bs: Your ex was fully toxic, and you can only hope they move on quickly and focus their attentions on some other unlucky bastard. Try to spot the red flags in your all-red-flags warning-sirens-blaring relationship earlier next time.
