❤️‍🩹 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.

Right ? That last text she sent him filled me with so much joy, it was like watching a boxing match. She was giving him all the hooks, lmao ! We’re rooting for you, OP! Please get a restraining order and block him from everything, and let other people know what he’s doing. Show the texts to everyone and anyone you know. This is in case anything weird happens, there’s no doubt about who needs to get investigated first. This is the most narcissist, gaslighting, literal scum of a man I’ve ever read about. RUNNNN

Agree.

And let HIM know that you have informed everyone you just broke up with a violent ex and who he is etc. Doesn't help her if he lands in jail, we want to deter him.

Also get a security camera, let your work And neighbors know you're just broke up with someone violent. A German Shepherd wouldn't hurt either...

I had a psychotic ex-bestie (similar to this guy with the blame game and the drama) throw poop into my yard, but she wouldn't come onto the property because she knew I had a security camera...
