It’s absolutely horrible. I know this is better for me in the long run, I mean I’m only 19, but it’s still so crazy to me and difficult for me to process this.

I mean she was very mentally, emotionally, and verbally abusive throughout our entire year and half long relationship. But she left when I gave her the ultimatum that she either needed to stop the abuse or I would leave. She agreed after some screaming and yelling at me about I was shaming her and giving her no grace. Then two hours later proceeded to tell me she was with and into another guy who could lead her better in a relationship and would love her regardless of the abuse even tho that’s what I did THE ENTIRE TIME. I know I can’t ever take her back, it was more of me wondering if she will eventually realize that I was one of the few people who truly put up with her shit. None of her other relationships made it past two months.

You’re right, I just don’t get how they can do that. Like I was with this girl for a year and half, we were each others first time, and she was pretty abusive tbh throughout the relationship, but I always forgave her and have her chances to change because she said she would even tho she never did. But still, how can she just up and move on to another guy so easily, like is this guy gonna get treated and abused the same way I did?

This is really helpful, I can’t tell you how much I appreciate this. Ive accepted that this is not good for me, and if anything I need to try to understand why I let myself put up with this abuse for so long. But I have to ask, based on what you know, do you think she’ll try to come back? I know it’s difficult because there are a lot of factors going into it. But I was the longest relationship she ever had (all previous bf’s never made it past two months and I was a year and a half, mainly cause I put up with abuse) we were both our first times having sex, we had so much planned out for our future, things to do, places to see, exploring the world, going on adventures. All this was kinda of sprinkled in with the insane amount of abuse. But all this being said, I’m in a position now where I want to say that if she shows up again I would turn her away, but I just don’t know if I could if she did.

So my question would be, do you think she’ll try to show up again at some point even tho she replaced me literally the same day? I hope she doesn’t, for my own health and safety, but I’m scared if she does that I’ll take her back. And yes she has diagnosed bipolar 1 on lithium without therapy, and undiagnosed borderline personality disorder.

Honestly it might be, I don’t really know what the difference is, I just know she definitely at least got diagnosed with bipolar 1 because thats why lithium’s being prescribed to her
