i never got it either but then i realized its smth ppl do to make themselves feel better abt their decisions & reduce cognitive dissonance. theyre feeling a sense of rejection & discomfort (i wanted them, why didnt they want me) so to boost themselves up, they lower their ex down & tell themselves "actually i didnt even like them all that much in the first place, they were *insert bad trait here* so its fine that they rejected me"

No I was like mentally unstable for being with someone who looks like a pig and acted like one

well... plenty of people choose partners for their personality. personality might've been carrying the overall attraction to begin with so then when not dating there's nothing left to be attracted to

They mainly want validation/that person to be attacked by their friends/internet strangers, but if you really saw this person as sooooo ugly, what does it say about you? The fact that you are okay with getting with people you’re not even attracted to?
