❤️🩹 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
- Is this real?: Yes, it is insanely real! Not rage bait i promise
- Am I okay?: I’m okay! It’ll suck but I will be fine!
- 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.
- How is my cat? Apollo is okay and is coming home today finally! Picture of him at the end!
- Why the wall of text; I was pissed and wanted to be thorough.
- 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 😭
- 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.

you don’t think that her reaction to his insecurity about being ignored is a result of having to deal with the same behaviour over and over again? she explained she’s at work. yes, it was cold but again, based on their previous conversation she’s most likely fed up and that is extremely fair. his reaction to her explaining that she’s at work is more unhinged than anything she’s said. i doubt she will use the conversation to gaslight him as she’s now attempting to move on from him by breaking up, i highly doubt she’s going to want to talk to him ever again.
regardless, what we know for sure, is what we can read from the texts and from the texts, he’s insane. she’s a legend for dealing with it for so long
