it was all going so well but then he started being really dry with me and whenever I asked about it he’d just shut me down, the last time I saw him I knew something was up with him and had a gut feeling we were nearing the end and I said to him “you won’t leave me right?” and he promised he wouldn’t..he promised. I have very bad history with relationships and often have been cheated on and abused but still end up going back and he knows this and this was the first relationship I truly felt safe and secure in. then yesterday I asked him about the dryness again and he finally gave in saying that apparently we lived to far (10 minute car drive btw) and that he was under a lot of stress and I said it surely couldn’t be the reason why cause it was never an issue before. we had a whole conversation for a good 3 hours of basically me begging him not to leave and then an hour later one of his friends starts sending me photos of them out together and taking the piss out of me.. turns out he never loved me so yeah..

How are you doing today
the way his friend jumped in like that says a lot about him too.
you feel like you were holding onto the version of him who made you feel safe, even when his actions stopped matching that?
exactly that
i’ve been there begging someone to stay while they already checked out. i remember the moment i realized their words meant nothing and that part really BROKE me
you are welcome dearest. A day at a time. We'll make it through eventually.
You did nothing wrong ... You just gave it your all and they couldnt appreciate. You dont have to find fault in yourself... They did that because they decided to do that, period. As for begging, it just meant so much for you thats why you were trying to salvage but as it turns out they chose to have a life without you and as hard as it may seem you should try lead one without them too. It gets better with time ... Healing isnt linear though. Wish you the best!
thank you so much this has really helped me and I’m so grateful!
