How I realized my ex was T O X I C

Ok guys this one is a hard one to admit because back when I realized that my ex was T O X I C i felt like such a FOOL!

Now that time has passed and i moved on and found my ✨ soulmate ✨ I can share this story with you…

Back in 2019 I met a guy on an app. It was months after i broke up with another guy who cheated on me but this is another story! Anyways… we met on this app and started talking and he was really funny, very sarcastic which i actually liked, it was different from the other guys I used to date.

Then we met and add a good time at a bar, for like an hour— things were ok, we continued texting and we started to see each other more

He would spend a lot of time at my apartment and we would play video games together. It was really fun and WAYYYY different from what I was used to…

But he was cute and was bringing me my favorite food, we would have interesting discussions etc so I was happy…. Or so i thought…

I noticed things that he was doing that were actually not healthy for my mental health like:

-ghosting me? Kinda? Like he would leave my apartment and if i didnt send a text he would not text me. So i was mostly waiting for a text to see if he actually cared

- i couldn’t see my worth anymore: i had bangs at the time and he would tell me he’s not a big fan, i would wear makeup and he would say i dont really like makeup and so on.. i couldn’t see my worth anymore and myself anymore like i wanted to change things about myself to please him… hooooow stupid was i? My goodness.

- I would skip class to spend time with him

- i started to get d3pr3ss3d. Because it felt like he was playing with me and my feelings and that he didn’t really care but he would always come back? Like make it make sense please. It was awful. The more days would pass by the more i would feel alone, sad and i would sleep more and more so time could pass faster. I was a mess

And that’s when i realized that what we had wasn’t healthy and wasn’t something that i wanted. And do after dayyyyyyys of not talking… as usual lol… i finally texted him telling him i needed to talk on the phone cause i didnt want to break up by text. So i called and then said that it was best if we stopped things because this is not what i want in a relationship. And it was super easy to do it and i felt so much better afterwards!

Of course… like 6 months after he came back like nothing happened and wanted to chat casually but i didnt want that so i cut it short and since then I’VE BEEN REALLY HAPPY and I have found the love of my life!!

So girls, if you feel like there is something wrong with the person you are currently dating, trust your gut!! Leave!
