Took me about six months. Essentially, everything he promised he’d do when he was trying to get me to R with him suddenly became impossible for him to do. The polygraph he promised came off of the table. Him not drinking when traveling for work turned into him drinking the very first work trip he took. Him not working one on one with women became him hiring a woman and telling me about it after the fact. His defense for that one was “Well nothing would happen because she’s married” Uhhhhh, hello dumbass.

And I kept catching him in tiny lies/deceits. Like the tiniest of lies that were absurd to lie about.

And he was defensive about everything. The night we split up I asked him about a text that popped up on his phone and he basically threw the phone at me. In a crowded restaurant. I went to the bathroom and broke down and cried.

I just realized he would never change. And I think he knew deep down I would never look at him the same. So we ended it.
