hey everyone! I wanted to share my story with you all. for the past two years I have only been interested in one person, I thought he was perfect for me and he thought the same about me. things started off great between us and he told me that he wanted to be in a relationship with me, which surprised me because I wasn’t looking to be with anyone at that time as I was still attached to someone else I was with. he helped me get over that person and I thought this guy could be the one I spend my life with. few months later he says his ex talked to him and he felt he didn’t do things right with her and wanted to right his wrongs for closure. I used to be someone who always tried to be kind and understanding even if it was hard, and I told him to figure out what he needed to figure out and that I wasn’t upset with him. fast forward about 3 weeks later he texts me and says that things didn’t work out between them and that he really regrets leaving me and was once again very sorry to put me through this. I was still very attached to him and I said yes to trying again. things were okay after that, not the same but not bad. few months later I find out he was talking to another woman, I just left without saying anything to him. few months after that he texts me again and asks me to hang out. I said yes, was still very attached to him. after a long few months (almost 6) of us hanging out I started asking about a relationship, and he told me he did not want to because he was moving away. I said okay but I don’t feel comfortable doing relationship things with you if you aren’t going to be in a relationship with me. we stopped talking. september of 2021 he texts me and tells me that he was always in love with me and asks me to hang out. I said yes. however we never got to do so because once I started asking about a relationship he stopped texting as much, would take almost a whole week to answer me, and would cancel hanging out with me. he said he wasn’t ready for a relationship and had commitment issues, but also told me he dated someone else in the time we weren’t talking. I told him I felt like he was lying and he would get angry, and when he stopped showing me as much effort I got angry and went off on him via text out of frustration. he blocked my phone number. he blocked me on social media. everywhere. this destroyed me. I never want to go through something even similar to that again. then I find out yesterday that my friend said he had another woman on his story and it looked to be his girlfriend. I just want to crawl in a hole. to find out this way that I was just being lied to and taken advantage of makes me feel so stupid and worthless. it’s just like why didn’t he try for me? when he does for others? I just don’t understand why this happened when he could’ve just told me from the beginning that I wasn’t what he wanted instead of doing the exact opposite and leading me on. I don’t understand what he gains from that. I don’t understand any of this. I feel like i’ve hit a new rock bottom. I wake up to my chest and stomach hurting. I feel like i’m never going to find someone else or ever be able to move on from this. it’s like if him blocking you didn’t make you move on then what will? I don’t know, i’m just at such a low place in my life right now.

Hey @scorpiorising111

I am really sorry that happened to you, you sound like an amazing human being who gave her all to it but sometimes the person in front of us just takes us for granted. Its hard and its even harder to move on when you are so attached to them but just know thats letting go is okay coz you are doing it for yourself. I do hope you get better soon<3 and you will find happiness again. In small things like sunlight, stars, the streets and you will heal. Thanks for sharing and good luck for the future.

thank you, it’s so hard because we were on and off together for two years. it feels like I have to completely start over, and I have to deal with knowing he didn’t care and that he’s with someone else know who he seems to treat better than me. I hope one day I can be happy again, it’s just so hard to see it right now. thank you for you words of encouragement, I really do appreciate it :)

Hello dearest ❤️


I’ve been through something so so so similar and I can tell you what I learnt from my experience.


1) They aren’t the same as us.


We are clearly extremely kind and agreeable people. We don’t want to hurt anyone and in return we only hope they do not hurt us but in all honesty not everyone sees the world the way we do. Not everyone will return the compassionate treatment we give and so that expectation will nearly always hurt us. Please just know you’re a fabulous person clearly and not everyone knows how to be as fabulous as you!


Please brace yourself for this next one because the quicker you understand the following the quicker you’ll heal:


2) The easier you allow a man to walk in and out of your life, the quicker they will.


Albeit subconsciously or consciously, they’ll start seeing you as the old cushion that’ll always be there and won’t appreciate you - it’s psychology. If you know you’re going to lose something, you’re more likely to fight for it but in that you’ve always been there for him and totally agreeable because you loved him, he never appreciated that and took that for merely “the cushion to fall back on.” He took you for granted - so much so - in the end he felt nothing when cutting all contact from you. I can assure you one day he’ll come crawling back to you - but this time you will not be there because if you continue this toxic vicious cycle, you will forever be suffering. He’s actually done you a favour - he’s showed you HE IS NOT WORTHY of your presence and he’s showed you through his actions HE IS NOT WORTHY of a place in your priceless life.


3) You deserve someone who chooses you - every single time.


I need you to know that if someone doesn’t “choose you” then they aren’t for you - no matter how much you love them or you think you can’t live without them - if they do not choose you for every second of the day for the rest of their lives - that is not love. Love is true, love does not end and love should not be painful. This is where you start again and you grow and this will be the last time you lower yourself for a man. Respect is everything. You deserve it. This is the time you layout your standards and at any cost do not lower them for anyone. It’s your life and you have EVERY RIGHT TO LIVE IT BY YOUR STANDARDS.


Sending love ❤️

Thank you. What’s awful is that I was aware of these things even during the relationship, but he just put me under the impression that despite everything he’s done he cares a lot about me. I feel violated in a way, like he did it on purpose to just keep me at arms length. It wasn’t until this past time we spoke that he genuinely just never cared about me, and I will never be with someone like him again. I feel like this relationship destroyed me and it continues to every day, I will never be with someone like him again. thank you so much for your kind words and advice, I appreciate you a lot ❤️

Ahh so you knew but you didn’t want to see the red flags and only now has the veil been lifted so you can see clearly again - you know it’s okay, to be fooled, or to allow people to fool us, shows your beauty, your innocence - it helps us grow but the best part of your message is that you will never let this happen again - you know your worth and you will never settle for less so you see if a rose grows from this calamity, looking back on life when you do as the stronger you, you will be so glad this happened - but for now baby steps forwards, until you get there and you will! ❤️


P.s. do not let someone completely unworthy of you take away from the beautiful fact that you are alive and breathing - we are all gonna go one day and the clock is forever ticking - please use this time to be you, enjoy your life and do all the beautiful things you have always wanted to - this stage in your life is called "IT IS ALL ABOUT ME!"


And that is okay - it is about time - the chapter was about you...
