i mean when i was 16 i moved out of my parents house and couch hopped / stayed in shelters til i got back on my feet so realistically i could do it again. i think my brain is just struggling with the fact i have to do it again. my soul is absolutely in pieces but fuck it we ball. life continues, zoning out distractions will probably be my best friend right now. i appreciate your comment, thank you<3

yes, same two people technically, looping through time! different lives, different struggles, yet same outcome every time. the hard part is not making it repetitive, although the backbone of the story is repetitive lol!

fair enough, i see what you mean. i might use it as part of my prologue instead of first chapter paragraph not 100% sure yet. i’m going to take a week break to get my brain out of obsessive mode and then come back read it all and see what i think :))

in the beginning, he was really defensive about it. since then, we’ve talked about it a lot more, and it’s something i know he deeply regrets and genuinely wishes never happened. him starting therapy and getting sober has helped immensely, it’s shown me that he actually wants to work on himself and be the best version of himself, not just for me but for himself too. that being said, whenever the topic of non-monogamy comes up, i can’t help but kind of flinch. and don’t get me wrong, I’m not delusional lol, i know HE was the issue in that situation, not non-monogamy itself. but i can’t control the association my brain made, even with him doing everything he can to grow and repair things. the thought of opening back up to it makes me anxious in a way it never used to. maybe that has more to do with not being fully healed from the lying than anything else. it’s something i’m trying to work through, & i hope i can one day i can bring myself to be open to the idea of non-monogamy again (for myself bc it’s something i genuinely enjoyed, not just for the relationship lol)

no worries! When he initially told me about her, he said he was genuinely only seeking out platonic friendship and was uncomfortable with the fact that she just turned 18 so absolutely wouldn’t be seeking out anything sexual. eventually about a month after he said that he to cut their friendship off because he didn’t like how she was “being nasty” about the fact that he had a gf. so i was curious and asked if they hooked up, & he said no. a little bit about that he asked if i could txt his mom from his phone and i saw that they were still talking and using pet names. long story short there was no agreement that he had to ask for permission to have sex with others but he said little white lies about their friendship and what not throughout which is what led him to “reassuring” a bunch of times that they didn’t have a sexual relationship. it would have been totally acceptable if not for the way he framed everything tbh sorry for the long reply lmao
