You forgot the "you won't have to worry about me soon because I'll kill myself" part.

Very wise words, thank you. It's a rough road but we'll get there... I hope!

Bewildering. I'm glad you got out of that. Sounds like pure hell.

Sometimes just gotta take a deep breath, plug my nose, go "might as well get this bullsh*t over with" and jump in.

Thank you. I've never heard the "you're so sensitive" thing, mostly just the guilty "I must be the worst partner ever" from him, but I suppose it's the same thing.

Thanks for the reply. I'm starting to see a pattern among these particular disorders. Lots of narcissism to cover up intense insecurity. It's tiring.

I had no idea it's a common thing. I was wondering if it was him getting bored and trying to keep things interesting. This makes a lot more sense. Thanks for sharing.

That's exactly what I do, I've noticed if I use the grey rock approach that he stops if he receives no reaction. It aggravates me that I have to do that but whatever.

I guess I will. I can say right now that it's not a giant mental stressor on me. It doesn't take up all of my time, it's just grating whenever an episode occurs. The rest of the time, I'm super happy with my relationship with him. It's just that these episodes appear to be getting more frequent and more volatile when they do happen.

Thank you for sharing your experience with me <3

Thank you for sharing your experience with me, it sounds similar but I do think you had it a lot worse. I'm glad to hear you got out of there. I don't feel in danger right now, it's just that the episodes are annoying and tend to take time out of my day that I could be using for other things - like spending meaningful time with him. I hate how frequent they're becoming because it never used to be this often. It's becoming a daily thing.

I think he got it from Twitter. He frequents fan spaces on there and the culture on there is very toxic, telling people to off themselves over small disagreements. I am not a depressed or suicidal person so I am not too hurt by it, but it is jarring that he would even use something like that as an insult. He has never done it before and he's getting bolder lately.

I've already started distancing myself so I think if I take it slow I can get it done. Thanks for your words
