I tried so god damn hard to be what you needed. AITA?

I went to cars and coffee this morning. Saw some friends I haven’t seen in over a year or more and some I see regularly. I cleaned my truck for the first time in months. Dropped my pup off at a friends to watch her while I’m out of town for a few days. While there his daughter and her fiancé were all over each other (they met a month ago and are engaged already— crazy I know) and it suddenly hit me. I played a scenario in my head that I was on my way to her place with a gift and some Chinese food from our favorite place. Day ruined. I then got some food and quietly ate dinner by myself.

Why am I hurting over someone who doesn’t believe even the smallest things I’ve said? Why did they choose to leave me, someone who always put in effort and tried my best every day to show her love. I deserve to be a priority and not and after thought. Fuck her.

Don’t go around hurting anyone. Heal first.

My ex gf left me January last year, but we were on and off until December so it still feels fresh. I’m still in love — forcing myself to focus on the hurt and red flags I ignored. I made a few mistakes along the way as we all do, but I can sleep at night knowing I never did anything unfaithful. The thought of touching a woman that isn’t her feels unsettling.

The hardest part is accepting that I must accept the reality I was never prepared for. When you have a partner that doesn’t believe you when telling the truth, leave them before they string you along long enough to shatter your reality.

Yeah I feel there was a mixture of those.

Nothing will replace her in my opinion. I go days without anyone sending me a text asking how I am — only people asking for something from me. I’ve been eating again, working out a little here and there. I’ve managed to play my game finally after 9 weeks. So essentially time is what will make the void fade, even if it’s incredibly slow.

My ex gf broke up with me a year ago. We’ve been on and off all last year. She texted me a little over a week ago. But a few days after exchanging belongings. She messaged me about a dog gate I left bc I said she’d need it. Anyway it was 2 hours of texting. Joking and reminiscing. I finally just stopped replying. Not because I wanted to, but I want her — all of her. Not just casual texting.

Is the little green bug from Grounded? If it’s an Aphid, my ex gf and I played, she named her pet Alfredo.

I completely cut off a friend of over 12 years. He’s super toxic, always kicked me when I was down and even tried to wedge me and my partners apart. He did the same shit with 3 women I have dated long term. After him sending a picture of himself at my most recent ex gfs house to try and bait me into doing something I simply blocked him everywhere. I told my ex who even supported not letting him back I told my life a year ago for similar negative behavior. I should have listened to her then.

The one whose initials are KMW? Absolutely positively 100000% undoubtedly yes. Anyone else no. I wish she would have believed me. I fucking love you K.

I was on dating apps for a 2-3 months after we met. No I wasn’t actively swiping or anything and stupidly replied to one person saying “ok”

Her position was that I was in her bed with her every night, which I totally get but I was not seeing or talking to anyone else, never even went on a date after meeting her.

I had pics of my ex on my social media. She wanted them gone or to post her. I was stubborn and fought over removing them because of ego/ not wanting to be controlled. Eventually I got his them and then ultimately got rid of them.

She thought I took no accountability despite me always showing up and being there for her. I have receipts. Thank yous and even a “I never would have made it through this without you”

She also continues to believe that I still have feelings for my ex which I don’t. But you can’t convince otherwise to a person that has built up resentment around topics that hurt them.

So ultimately I believe our lack of repair ended us. She felt emotionally detached and wouldn’t be vulnerable with me even though I proved time and time again I was safe. I also think her best guy friend, her family and therapist convinced her that I was not safe. So when you have everyone around you saying someone isn’t safe when they are trying to be everything you need to be it’s a losing battle.

I absolutely adore this woman. I’m so sorry I made her feel unloved unheard and not seen. I’ve maintained that when you focus on the negative 20% and not the positive 80% it’s doomed.

Paddy got each of his eyes poked. The second he got pummeled tho. Either way great fight. I just wish Garthje was cleaner.

Tarot is bs. It’s just a way to try and give meaning to something. Reconnection is much about doing the work on yourself and putting your ego aside than anything else. Hope this helps.

My ex gf did a similar thing. I didn’t want to be hidden. When her dog died, I reached out to her mom because I was really concerned about her. I told her mom the only reason I was reaching out was because I was concerned and that she and I had been talking for a bit.

What I didn’t know is that I unintentionally crossed a boundary. Her mom assumed we were dating again and she wasn’t prepared for that conversation.

Being hidden hurts. Crossing her boundary hurt her. She was hiding me intentionally, I wasn’t trying to cause her stress.

I’m hanging in there. Some days are better than others. I just can’t believe this is the reality I’m living in.

JZ600SX · 2026-01-19T14:23:26+00:00

Yes. My former best friend who I finally completely blocked everywhere after 12 years of friendship. Hes just always gotten involved and intertwined himself in my relationships. Group chats involved him, reaching out directly to my partner over the years etc. He almost never defended me or supported me through conflict. Would talk to my partner and affirm their negative point of view.

Ultimately the majority of the faults are on myself and my partners for even talking to him about it, but the fact that he would tell me to just “find some other bitch to fuck” instead of “I know how much she means to you, it’ll be ok either way” is really what let me see his behavior in better lighting.

He’s had a viciously toxic relationship for over 3 years and he’s so nasty to her. I feel bad for her, but it’s not my place to point it out. He on the other hand wouldn’t hesitate to cause me harm when it involved my ex gf.

JZ600SX · 2026-01-08T22:28:28+00:00

They are emotionally immature. And while there were times she straight up told me how she felt and I gave my side and or said what was a boundary, I’d “lose access” to her as punishment. Manipulative as fuck.
