So I ran into an ex's dad last weekend, The ex that damaged me long ago. She is two years younger than I, and I have not seen her or heard of her for about ten years. I politely asked how she was, and got the following reply........................................wait for it.....................................she's about to give birth to her..................................SEVENTH child! I refrained from asking how many fathers, and wished her well. I once heard that the best revenge is living well, in this instance I couldnt agree more! Blaming my bitterness and general dis-trust of people on that cursed relationship would be dishonest, but it had to start somewhere.
Am I an asshole for thinking like this?

Asshole? No, not at all. And that's cool that your Dad was such an influene! I wish I could say the same...my Dad wasn't around more than twice a year after the divorce, but that's just as well. He wasn't terrible, but I know I get my lack of self-confidence in part because he was a criticizer of everything I did. My step dad was pretty cool though.
