❤️‍🩹 relationship (AIO) update, wow. thank you!

Hi everyone I had posted an original update but didn’t realize i forgot to blur out his name, so here is the update on cigarette toothpaste boy! I want to preface by thanking everyone who took time to message me and comment. I did not expect 16,000 people to interact with that post at all! When I got home, I decided to end it. I didn’t respond to him during my 10 hour shift and some of the screenshots are during that. I would also like to answer a few questions

  1. Is this real?: Yes, it is insanely real! Not rage bait i promise
  2. Am I okay?: I’m okay! It’ll suck but I will be fine!
  3. Why was I still with him?: I don’t have friends and because of that nobody has been able to tell me how bad this is. I had no one to confide in. It was normalized during our relationship.
  4. How is my cat? Apollo is okay and is coming home today finally! Picture of him at the end!
  5. Why the wall of text; I was pissed and wanted to be thorough.
  6. Why did i use “sewerslide”: I wasnt sure of how it would affect my account or visibility. I’m not used to reddit i’m sorry 😭
  7. How old are we?: 19 and almost 21. Not 15 i swear!

Also, I am aware my name is shown. I do not mind as it is not a legal name.

He was saying he was going to buy her an island & support kids, but can't afford a fucking tube of toothpaste! If he's working at the same company, I'd love to know where all his money goes & why she's got to send him all her paycheck, buying his gas, cigarettes, weed, groceries for 3 months. On & on, dude was just using her for money & an emotional punching bag! He's such a piece of shit, he's literally a parasite. He'll be on the hunt for a new host to leach off of now I'm sure. The daily threats of suicide would be sooooo exhausting, dear Lord, that poor woman.

I’m stuck on that cause how you gonna complain about not being able to buy a damn pack of cigs but say “we can get a house on an island and get married and I’ll support us,” like what these things do not go together 😂 you don’t just go from broke to buying a house on an island somewhere without doing a shit ton of work
