Why do they apologize only after breaking my trust?

Author

What do you do when this is a pattern and hearing me clearly is only happening after they completely broke my trust? This is in the context of an on/off relationship going on two years and non contact atm.

my ex always found the perfect words AFTER the damage was done, and every apology felt so convincing until the same cycle came back around.

oh the beautiful lies. this is love bombing to gain and pull you back. I fell for the beautiful lies so many times. the lack of follow through and continued behavior will speak for itself. I'm sorry. 🥺

If they say they will do better, its only words. They need to prove they will do better. I find most of the time change is short lived, then they go back to their shitty behaviour
