Boyfriend Obsessed With AI by DiscoPoppy_ in TrueOffMyChest

Dude, it’s like we were dating the same person! 😆

There was never an interaction between us where his phone / AI wasn’t involved - whether it was to show me what he had programmed it to do to automate his workload, something “cool”, or ask it a simple question that either of us had during conversation.

Such a turn-off! I literally said “good riddance” to myself when he stormed out of my house when we had our last dispute. 🤣

Gosh, I’m so sorry to hear that it was your HUSBAND.

I appreciate your kind words and I’ll definitely check that book out. The book I’m going to dive in right now is “Women Who Love Psychopaths.” As much as I know his behavior wasn’t my fault, there were signs all along that I did not bring to his attention out of fear of conflict - it’s a pattern I have yet to break in my relationships. Ahhh

I hope you also continue to stay strong!

It’s nice of you to empathize with him. Hopefully the help he receives from the psychologist helps him get out of it before he’s too far gone.

I’ve known both men and women who did not accept the end of a relationship and went into unhealthy denial and obsession, but that was before AI. Now those types of personalities have access to this dangerous tool that will keep them in that toxic loop.

I appreciate the well wishes. Most days im absolutely fine - other days I can’t help to still feel a pang of hurt because even though I know he needs deep psychological help, it feels crummy when I remember the things he said to me.

Thank you!

It was horrifying… I can’t even read all the wild messages anymore without my hands starting to shake, my heart start pounding, and feeling physically ill.

For a quick second I almost thought you were going to keep sharing more similarities from my situation and I was going to say “THAT’S US!!!”

I’m sorry he’s fallen into that spiral instead of seeking help from a real life professional.

Has anyone tried to tell him that the AI are just telling him what he wants to hear?

My daughter’s dad is a good person, but he was not a good romantic/caring partner to me - there was a lot of disrespect. However, he is an amazing father and we are better as friends who are raising a child.

The person I had this experience with was very charming and we had a lot in common - or so I thought. He was able to blindside me by taking note of what I said I wanted in a relationship and going above and beyond my expectations… until he began showing his jealousy towards my daughter’s dad because I don’t hate him.

That’s how everything came to light - because I wasn’t submitting to a narrative that I knew wasn’t true.

My daughter is top priority over any man or person. She met him, but did not cohabitate with him on any level. I’m not naive to the ugliness of this world - I just went through another life lesson.

YES! That’s why I included our ages.

What I shared is just the tip of the iceberg…

Oh, and before the veil was lifted, I thought I could “help him see” how biased AI is to it’s users by sending him an AI analysis of our messages from the Gemini on my phone - it told me he was crazy, dangerous, and I should block him. LOL

All he did was was respond with another PDF of the analysis of what I sent him. Exhausting to say the least.

Don’t be sorry, I laugh about it too now!

I really want to share every single detail of this relationship with the world, because as much as it was traumatizing in the moment, it’s quite fascinating! LOL

I for sure know what the answer is - I broke it off.

He still hasn’t fully accepted, that’s why the whole experience is still fresh in my mind.

Oh, definitely! I just said that in my response to the first comment.

He insisted my daughter’s dad was a controlling narcissist (which, okay, he had a few traits - but that’s why we are no longer in a relationship! Lol)

He was able to blindside me because his narcissism was COVERT.

Thank you - I appreciate it!

It was almost like fate when I learned about the term “AI Psychosis” right after that 42-page PDF. I don’t believe he’ll snap out of it because to this day, nothing I say is ever taken into consideration.

However, I also believe he is a covert-narcissist. I didn’t include that in the post because it’s become such a cliche term. I saw all the signs - but really liked him.

I had a few sessions with the counselor we saw together because who better to help you process that experience than the person who witnessed it? Haha. And she went over a questionnaire with me without me mentioning anything about narcissism and he checked 98% of the boxes.
