how being in an emotionally manipulative relationship from 8th grade to sophomore year fucked me up, a thread
one time we had gotten in an argument bc I was texting my friend while me and him were hanging out, one thing lead to another and he ended up telling me if I didn& #39;t get out of his house he would call the police, for texting my friend
as this argument was happening, I was sobbing and he was laughing because it turns out he was in an xbox party with his friends and they could hear everything I was saying, he even recorded me as I was sobbing on his curb waiting for my mom to pick me up
another time, he was a difficult person to shop for and he had recently gotten super into fitness so for a fun surprise I got him a little goodie bad with protein bars and stuff, and when I gave it to him he said "what the fuck is this" and wouldn& #39;t take it
he even went as far as making me get out of his car and he threw the gift out his car window and drove away and his excuse later on was "it was a shitty gift, I didn& #39;t want it"
this same guy had used me 8th to freshman year to cheat on his girlfriend, which I knew he had but when he cheated on her with me he would lie to me and say they broke up and he knew I was innocent so I would always fall for it
even when we were together he still always had other girls lined up behind my back and anytime we would argue, he would run to these girls and post about them on his instagram just for me to see because he knew how upset it would make me
I remember one time, I had gotten sexually assaulted by this 20 year old in his car when I was 16, after I was assaulted I was sobbing and called him and all he did was yell at me and say I had cheated on him, and used it as an excuse to cheat on me
he would want to be with me one week and then the next he would hate my guts and he never had an explanation he just said I was "annoying" even though I had acted the same way the whole time we were together
to this day I still get scared that i& #39;m being "annoying" and I completely shut down if anyone shows any slight sign of leaving because of him, I completely push people always because it& #39;s easier than being hurt the way he hurt me all over again
to this day I still get so anxious about notifications that I keep almost everyone muted because I used to wait hours for him to respond and when he would he would have an excuse and I later found out obviously he was cheating on me when he would disappear
okay this is my last story for this thread, I have a bunch but these are some of the main ones that made me the way I am, one time he started working at the same place his ex worked (the one he cheated on with me) and they started hanging out a lot outside of work
one day they went to the drive in movies after work and he disappeared again for the millionth time for a few hours, when the movie ended he was still not answering so I had to call HER to see what was going on and she just told me,
"oh it& #39;s one of his favorite movies, just let him watch" later on I found out that same girl had told him she was still in love with him as they were friends and he said he didn& #39;t entertain her but he would still hangout with her knowing she still had feelings for him
sorry guys I know this is long, what happened to me doesn& #39;t define who I am, I will never let a man disrespect me in that way ever again, I am thankful that it was only 2 years and not any longer, from the sexual pressure to the emotional abuse, he will forever leave me scared
