Wasn't he complaining a while ago how it ruined his life, and now he does this? I mean, alright, poor guy was blasted in front of the whole world and I feel for him, but it's a little bit hypocritical.

"Wasn't he complaining a while ago how it ruined his life, and now he does this?"

Makes sense that he'd wanna send her some payback in return lol. This probably won't have the same impact as her songs or success, but if I got blasted, you bet I'd start popping out songs returning the favor.

Have you ever gotten back at an ex??

[genbu_no_miko24]

No because I can’t sing or write songs

Girl I didn't mean high school musical style haha

I meant like getting cheated on and sleeping with his friend or slashing a tire or three, that kinda mess.

I dont think I have tbh, not that I can think of at the moment. The only time I ever remember doing that was when I was talking to some dude in high school and I remember asking him why he didn't wanna date me, even though we hung out and went to the movies like once or twice 🙄, and he tells me cause I'm fat! I was stunned but not hurt, so my dumbass decides to starve myself for a month before the new school year started and lost 30 pounds and it worked. He tried to talk to me again but I was like nah. This was back when Lindsay and Nicole were skinny af so I had "inspo" cause I was so amazed at their transformation. I would NEVER do something like that again though, no man is worth that mental hell.

YEP. I went on a date with his childhood friend the week after we broke up and then I started hanging out with his work friends, who then became my besties and eventually my bridesmaids. Now I'm 30 (+ a few years), flirty, and thriving.

This should be made into a film haha

I laugh every time I think about it.

in his songs he basically called her an opportunist and that when she stopped ~playing the victim~ and writing about him her songs wouldn't be the same.

tbh the positioning of olivia as a person chasing fame off of the drama as if that's not what he's doing ten months late kinda made me roll my eyes because it felt like such a joe jonas/john mayer in 2010 move, but a portion of tiktok and twitter decided she was evil so

Tbf he said he was fine with Olivia telling her story about him but she should've stepped in and told her fans off when they were harrassing him.
