The Crap That Follows You

I've been pretty honest about how crazy my last relationship was.  Stuck with that dude for nearly 4 effing years.  Whatever, I'm kind of a determined fucking person who DOES NOT GIVE UP ON PEOPLE!  Not until they have really dragged me through the dirt and I suddenly have to protect myself (Ok, I guess I'm never going to get a normal family going with this one...).  Seriously, you have to really be a total dick for me to finally give up and leave your ass.  I keep thinking you will change and suddenly start treating me right.

Luckily my husband has treated me right from the start... shocking!  To me it was. 

Anyway... many years ago I lived with this dude.  We shared an apartment for THREE effing years.  Again, I'm a determined little bugger who does not let go of things. 

We shared a computer... my computer.  He was, for whatever reason, really into buying music from iTunes.  Something I have never done.  I use iTunes to play music, but BUY music through iTunes.. no.  Ew.

So I have all these... for lack of a better word, "links" to his music on my computer.  I can't listen to them anymore, because they somehow followed me to a new computer I bought with my husband a few years ago.  So they needed to be reauthorized by iTunes with a password.  A password I don't have and would be wrong of me to use anyway.

We have since then bought a whole OTHER new computer, and they have followed me to that one too.  These links to HIS music.

I don't even hate his music.  I even like some of his music.  But I can't play it, it just follows me as this reminder of the guy I used to live with (ha ha, no you can't play that song, because you dumped that guy, remember??).  And finally, it is bugging the shit out of me.  I NEED to get rid of these links to HIM.  I have moved on with my life goddamnit.  I turned the last of his T-shirts he never picked up into a rug. 

But there doesn't seem to be an easy way to do this.  And I swear I tried this once before a few years ago.

People who grew up before iTunes don't have this problem.  Does anyone else have this problem?  I fear I am the only one with this very weird problem. 

Currently sorting through my song list by artist looking for his music to delete it.
