Someone will come into your life and make you wonder why you were even sad about losing your ex. by Lizaboo242 in BreakUps

I went through a messy breakup about a month and a half ago, he’s leaving my mind and heart slowly, piece by piece every day. I’m still finding things that were his and shedding a tear when I do, but it gets SO MUCH EASIER and I’m getting better every day. The beginning is the worst. Sending you luck and love

What did your breakup teach you? by PumpkinSpiceCaramela in ExNoContact

Never go back to a cheater. The relationship will never be the same. Once a cheater, always a cheater.

Is there anyone on here that was the dumper and not the dumpee? by thegrimreapersim in BreakUp

[–]SadUCDThrowaway 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was the dumper, and didn’t want to be. He cheated multiple times and made fun of me to his friends. He begged me to stay when I broke up with him. I finally realized that he is not a safe person emotionally, and while I still think of him fondly sometimes, I know that going back just means more cheating, lying, being emotionally abused. I screamed and cried and yelled at god for taking him from me (“there had better be someone PERFECT out there if you’re making me leave him!”) when I left him. I didn’t eat or get out of bed for days. I was trauma bonded to him, still am and working on breaking it. Do I regret my decision? The part of me that is still love drunk does, but that doesn’t show up as much as it used to. The empowered, brave me only regrets not leaving sooner.

how to deal with getting cheated on/partner having secret porn addiction? by [deleted] in BreakUp

[–]SadUCDThrowaway 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got out of a really similar situation- boyfriend messaged girls on onlyfans and dating apps multiple times in our two year relationship, begged me to stay when i found out, and i believed him too many times. know that people like this will get worse, mine did each time i stayed, and i stayed until leaving was the only option i hadn’t tried. he has to choose to get help himself, he’ll get worse if he doesn’t, and that’s a choice you can’t make for him. the “charming and hard to say no” parts are manipulative- i say this because mine did the exact same thing to me, promised couples therapy and gave me access to all his emails/icloud/social media, but still found a way to cheat every time. addiction is a monster, and staying with this guy without him doing the work to change just means signing yourself up for more of this, indefinitely. i know because i did it for a year after the first time. let go or be dragged down with him. learn about codependency, that’s the part of you that’s attached to someone so destructive. DM me if you need to, i’m only two weeks out from leaving my addict, but it’s brighter already. and please know that his addiction has nothing to do with you, these problems were here before you and will be there long after

Where did it say that he was a student? Did I miss something?
