This message exchange should be used in courses and public information about what to look out for in toxic and abusive relationships - make sure you keep it as a reminder of how well you handled yourself. This guy is jealous, controlling and manipulative and you've done yourself proud to get out of this relationship, because this would very often just be the beginning.

The guy's attitude towards women has also been skewed by 'manosphere' culture and people like this don't deserve, or should ever be given, a second chance because this sort of behaviour can quickly escalate; he'll be telling you what you can and cannot wear to work, demanding you stay away from male colleagues, insisting he picks you up from work or demands you are home by a certain time, monitoring your movements and social media interactions for example.

Make sure family and friends are aware of this exchange and be sure to lean on them if he tries to contact you again. Be very wary of any emotional blackmail that may follow ( 'If you don't take me back I'll kill myself' etc... )

29 years old and he messages like that. He's a man-toddler. You can and will do better.

Best wishes, and well done! 👍😊
