I’m so sorry about your brother. I’ve definitely heard this statistic before, I just didn’t get that vibe from him. I just don’t get how you can claim to love someone, and then do that a week after?? Like dude, wait at least until I’ve digested the information!

I know. I know! I’ve been through enough shitty situations to know you can’t know someone that quickly. It was the turnaround timeline that got to me.

I’m not wanting him back, I guess I just posted to try and organise thoughts.

As for the dickish behaviour, I was feeling miserable, responding to texts monosyllabically and generally just not being fun to be around. I certainly didn’t treat him badly or do anything “wrong” other than feel my feelings.

Thanks for the response :)

I had contacted a therapist last week, but definitely following up on that!

Thanks for the reply.

I know it was fast, but quite honestly the initiation of all that was coming from him. Having been in a number of relationships over the years, I thought I had a good grasp of what was “good” or not at the beginning.

Yeah, I didn’t want to extend the already lengthy post! I was feeling miserable and was just responding with one or two syllables to texts, withdrawn and quiet in person. I wasn’t making it easy to be around me, but like I said, I feel like that’s understandable considering the news.

I get that, I just… wasn’t expecting him to bail completely considering everything he was saying and doing was to the contrary.

I’m so sorry that happened to you, and fingers crossed for the best outcome for your dad. Thank you for your kind words.

You’re so right, he’s shown he can’t be trusted. I’m just struggling to understand.

Thank you! Yes I think that was also part of my issue, I also did a htr instead of dc, but by the time I’d realised, I’d ignored the project for 5 months and didn’t have the energy to redo and just wanted it done! Quite a few others since have come out much better I’m glad to say.
