The respect

Author

He was intimate with me a couple of times this summer, I thought we were on the mend. Then he is intimate with someone else and tought nothing about it, he's single and do what he wants he said. Asked why he sleeps with me, the answer "it's not uncommon to sleep with friends". He knows since our 5 years together I don't see it that way. For me, I would have been fine with just friends, no sex, no kisses nothing to build it up again. He couldn't even respect to talk with me his intention before he initiated to be intimate with me...

you wanted clarity before anything physical. he gave intimacy without honesty. the mismatch between his words and your meaning is what keeps the wound open.

that “friends can sleep together” line hit me too once. i remember sitting there thinking how could he say it so lightly when he knew my heart was still tied up. it hurts because you cared different.

i went through that too. he touched me like i still mattered, then told me it was casual. felt like my body was just a placeholder while he waited for someone else. i hated myself for letting him.

that’s definitely a heart breaking situation, to know your boundaries have been made clear and he still didn’t consider your wants and needs. I think it’s overall selfish for him to do this to you.
