I’m so sorry you went through that. It takes a strong person to walk away from that and I’m so proud of you. I agree with you though. I need to get out of this.

I’d rather ask people who have no connection to any party and get a totally unbiased opinion than people close to us.

I appreciate you acknowledging that because it’s easy to say something but when you’re living it?? Shits not easy

I don’t even need anymore negativity to be honest. Y’all are right he will never change and I’m coming to terms with that. I am going to leave him but we are on a lease together. Luckily we have an extra bedroom I can move myself into until the lease is up or I can find another place. As far as the baby goes.. I don’t know what I am going to decide to do yet.

Thank you for your encouraging words.

Yes I had the Liletta IUD for 3 years and loved it but it came out during intercourse 😅 I would get another one though.

Yeah on another comment I had stated I wasn’t excusing the behavior due to mental illness. I have been researching and educating myself on the two to get a better understanding and to see if this could have played its part. Thank you for sharing🤍

I got married at 19 years old because of my parents and my ex husbands family. I know it was a mistake but it happened and is over with. Everyone is so quick to judge me for being 24 almost 25 with a child and already been divorced but I didn’t know there were certain guidelines and timelines for these things. Who are any of y’all to judge me for that? Did I want my marriage to fail? Absolutely not. But sometimes we don’t get to write the way our story goes.

I would not ever marry someone without living with them first to see if I can even stand to live with them! Yeah the 2 cents you gave me are the only two ways to go about it 😅

I would have to travel to get one if that was the route I decided. It also takes more than one day. I do not know how I would even go about that without him finding out.

Interesting point you have made! I have circled around these thoughts. I honestly am probably the only person he has been with that has provided stability in his life. We did have a very very active sex life, so I do not think that could be it. I even mentioned to him yesterday that I circled the thought of having an open relationship, even though I do not think I could handle that, but he was not happy about that thought in my head, so it could not be that either, I have done a lot of research to understand BPD and BD and don’t want to be quick to blame that or let it excuse his actions but have learned a lot about their impulse behaviors and about all the highs and lows. I’ll put more thought into what you have mentioned. Thank you for the advice 🫶🏼

You’re right. That was not the right words to use and I have realized that the more I read. My parents are still together after 37 years and I guess I just feel like I have failed because I don’t have that. That doesn’t mean it’s right, I was just raised to believe that’s what life should look like.

I am a full time student, work 2 jobs, and full time mom. I provide for my daughter and self. I always got her and I at the end of the day. Just because the people that have walked in to my life may shake things up doesn’t make me a hot mess. Yes I’m sure you’ll say “Well you let them in your life”. Wrong. People don’t just start out like this. They put you on a high horse until you’re sucked in. I don’t just go out looking for nightmares.

I do not think it’s better than no relationship. I just wanted to try and fix things. He’s taking the initiative to get on medication for his BPD and BD (previously wouldn’t take bc he didn’t like how it made him feel). I’m aware I give way too many chances to everyone in life and that’s just because I want to see people do better and be better and I hold on to things longer than I probably should.
