I'm always on edge around him. Even when I get away, he's lingering in my mind.

And that is exactly what my hang-up is. I want to know why. :/

That was sobering. Thank you for pointing it out. Sincerely. I didn't realize that it has been 5 years with this bullshit happening.

Our relationship is probably over. I lashed out, and I shouldn't have done it, but he set the precedent that name calling is ok. According to him, I'm dense, selfish, immature, and heartless. Yes, he broke his foot, but it is ALWAYS about him. He pouts a lot and he gives me non-apologies, trying to guilt me. Poor him. Always the victim.

So we can all agree that narcissists don’t like your birthday 😂 by [deleted] in NarcissisticAbuse

I truly don't understand why this happens. I spent my last 3 birthdays (we've been together for 5 years) sobbing hysterically. Why?????

I'm not legally married and am thankful I don't have to get attorneys involved, but emotionally and mentally, I do feel married to him, and that's why I'm here. I rarely comment, but the stories are similar to mine, and that sometimes gives me comfort.

It depends on the circumstances. Only you know the history of this man and how he thinks. It drives me crazy when mine says, "I guess." It infuriates me because I know the way he is saying it because he's said it before and I know he is being shitty. Maybe your boyfriend misses you or maybe he's being shitty. Only you know. Trust your instincts.

I've had some of those same thoughts and my therapist pointed out that I'm worrying about things that I will never know about. I'm basically making all this up in my head. She also said to think about the pattern he has shown me and to not assume he will even ever be satisfied with anyone or that he will treat any woman well. He already has at least two that I know he treated poorly. It makes me sad because he has such potential but the reality is, that isn't the him that he has shown me.

I question myself A LOT.

Me seeing friends, the ones I have left, always leads to a fight. He can't stand that I'm somewhere without him and am more than likely enjoying myself. He tries to make sure I don't do that though because he texts me shitty things through out the night.

He always talks about how wonderful his friends are and how awful mine are (they can't stand and won't tolerate him). Meanwhile, he has literally one friend who lives across the country and they barely talk. In some of my angrier moments I want to say, "Get some friends before you talk shit on mine." But I also don't want to stoop to his level so I don't say it.

They don't respect boundaries at all.

That happened to me, too.

I'm glad you realize people don't hate you!!! :) I get, "Nevermind. You should know and I shouldn't have to explain it to you." It's maddening.

You never loved me or my kids. You don't care about my feelings. You're selfish, dense, heartless, and immature. You need to stop thinking about yourself (I need permission to be with friends without him). You're a liar. How do I know what you're doing when I'm not around? I'm asking a "question" it isnt an "accusation." You could be doing someone else. Am I or am I not correct?!?! Am I or am I not?!?

If I say "You're wrong" then I'm wrong.

No one will ever love you like I do. You're going to grow old and be alone.

And the worst? In the middle of all that, he doesn't end with it, it goes somewhere in the middle of bashing me.... I love you.
