i no longer have the motivation to achieve this goal because i now passionately hate my ex-boyfriend. what’s wrong with biting your nails, anyways? i need new motivation.

i’ve been biting my nails for as long as i can remember. i havent cut them with actual nail clippers since the 90’s. i bite them when i’m nervous, when i’m bored, when i’m not even thinking about it. i’ve tried to stop several times, but i just haven’t beem able to follow through.
about a month ago, my ex-boyfriend (who i’m still completely infatuated with) caught me biting my nails and exclaimed, “that’s disgusting. i would rather date a girl with poop on her face than a girl who bites her nails.” now see, him and i are friends, and i know it was just a joke, but it kind of set of this little spark in my head. this probably sounds incredibly dumb but for me, this was perfect motivation to stop biting my nails. for about two weeks thereafter, my mouth never touched my nails, and though take a little nibble at them every once in a while, theyve never been so long in my whole life.
i can’t say i’ve accomplished this goal completely, but i think i definitely have a good head start.
