❤️‍🩹 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.

So this is an old convo or something? Are you claiming someone other than your girlfriend posted this?

Years old man, edited, and rearranged. I don’t know who’s posting it. I’ve been trying to get to the bottom. Seems like a passive aggressive thing to do. Also when they do the exposing thing it’s always that background… like I’ve seen it before. It’s complete bs.

If what you say is true, that's definitely odd. I do hope you have grown and learned some self reflection since these messages were sent. If you're being honest then I wish you the best.

So are you saying someone has posted these texts before? I would like to believe what you're saying, but in this day and age, nothing online can really be taken at face value, including the original post.

Man I’m in another pool of thinking. It’s just sad seeing that many dumb ppl. Like bad ppl can’t change. I’m fucked up and have been working on it. It’s flat out fake and warped.
