...See more My bf was awesome the first 6 mos. Then Covid hit, and I realized he was an alcoholic. He would tell me when he was drunk that he was seeingmultiple women, and then deny it the next day while sober. He would drunk text women and get on sex websites and prank the women. He befriended a stripper and helped her move, when I had to pay movers to help me mo w on with him. He had given me a promise ring, and I came home to him one day arguing with a girl's husband and over the phone. I found out he had been drunk texting her and that's when I found the receipt for the moving truck on his phone. But he says he just sat in the truck while her friend helped her move. Whatever. Then amazingly he quit drinking during the last six mos of our relationship and found Buddhism. But things didn't get better for our relationship. He went hard core into Buddhism to cope with the addiction. He told me he wanted me to move back in with him, but he would be practicing a lot and wouldn't have a lot of time for me. I was still dealing with the insecurity of how he had treated me. He would preach to me that jealousy was one of the six sins of Buddhism. During the second six mos he had told me he couldn't do monogamy because he was polyamorous at heart. The first six mos he portrayed himself as a wonderful bf and said monogamy was the only way to go. Then second six mos he is into polyamory, lol, but there is no one else. Now he came out on social media a Asexual. He started talking about how he used to lust after women when he was drinking but not anymore. Then I posted an innocent comment on a different post about shoes of his. And he told me I was being territorial on his page. I could only go to his house Thursday through Sunday and he wouldn't t ex t during the day a lot and at night because he was meditating . I told him I wanted some space for the weekend, and he broke up with me. A week later he tells me he had reached out to a longtime friend of his , a female, and she was so much more understanding of him and his quirks and issues. He also has anxiety. I understand he needed alcohols and Buddhism to cope, but I was getting anxiety and ptsd from the way he had treated me. Now a week ago, after three weeks of no contact, he emails me to tell me how much he enjoys Buddhism and he hopes I will join the teachings. I was kind of brisk with him, and he told me he is talking to human beings in a non romantic way so I won't have any trauma from him. Because I was brisk with him and said apparently you were talking to a woman who you said was better than me and you see happier without me. I am a really under standing loving and forgiving person and O have tried to give him the benefit of the doubt over and over again. He really hurts me, drives me crazy and Fuchs with my head. I
