I told everyone she cheated on me too which backfired amazingly lol
She told everyone I requested an open relationship so it didn't count
Master manipulator
I mean, basically you failed to cultivate deep and meaningful relationships with other people is the problem. Did you ever open up to your friends about anything before your break up? Did they ever open up to you, or come to you with their problems? Did you have friends who were "your friends" who you often hung out with while she didn't?
I'm a guy. I have male friends. I would support them in an instant if they were going through a breakup. I would expect my male friends (and my female friends) to do the same. Is this rare or weird? I dunno. I'm just me. I don't have experience living anyone else's life. But I'd recommend finding some friends who can form a support network for you whether or not it is "normal". If it's normal, be normal. If it isn't, fuck being normal. Go be weird.
That's messed up. I can't stand people who lie, I'm mad for you
Well at one point i did suggest an open relationship but she didn't agree to it haha
..the plot thickens lol
Yeah it doesn't really matter now though haha
We learn from our mistakes don't we? Hows it go, it's only truly a mistake if we don't learn from it.
It's still your liberation day, and I still wish you the best in finding what you need in life. Love a good fresh start, be kind to yourself out there, stay genuine to your heart.
