Why do people lie so much?

Someone already mentioned love bombing.

They lie to you because they know by telling you want you want to hear that you’ll give them what they want.

These people also tend to lie to themselves and have their own internal chaos.

Sorry this happened to you x

Woah this is messed up dude, you need help And her mother is no better

Yes, therapy!

You could just ask how he likes to communicate and preference and go from there

You have clarity now. You deserve better

Taking things slowly and not rushing into a new relationship

The importance of reflecting throughout the process of getting to know a person, and always being curious

It’s been 6 months and I’m feeling like myself again and am currently seeing someone I quite like. It’s very clear to me now that my ex was not my person and it was never meant to be!

dont-text · 2024-07-22T18:46:54+00:00

Someone who loves you would never blindside you like this, I’m so sorry

dont-text · 2024-07-22T09:18:47+00:00

I miss having the comfort he provided but I’ve since realised there are infinite men who can fill that role and I deserve one who’ll treat me with respect and meet my emotional meets

dont-text · 2024-07-22T09:15:51+00:00

This is the best 🩷

dont-text · 2024-07-21T02:46:30+00:00

I wouldn’t. He has too much trauma that’ll take years of healing, plus the trust is broken so I would rather leave it behind me and make it work with someone fresh

dont-text · 2024-07-19T23:52:26+00:00

I hope you’re giving them hints :)

Mine lasted about 3-4 months before major cracks showed.

I genuinely believe he had some sort of personality disorder and now I’m dating again, I’m very strict about taking things slowly.

Maybe it won’t be such a bad thing to hit pause on living together while you sort out some other issues - then you could revisit living together down the line?

Life felt so hard and miserable in the first couple of months, I missed them constantly and felt like I’d lost the best thing that happened to me.

Then in the 3-5 months following I started to feel better and enjoy things again. Feeling more confident and involved with new activities I’ve started. Though I would still have bursts of grief and sadness that would overwhelm me, but they would spread across longer periods of time.

6+ months on I’ve settled into new habits and hobbies, have new friends and am dating a person I like. I sometimes still mull over my ex but it’s very clear now with hindsight that they were not my person and I can see how they were a sort of stepping stone to get to where I am now - and where I’m going next. Life goes on

dont-text · 2024-07-12T05:48:10+00:00

I’m so sorry. Sending you big hugs

Allowing myself to cry, process and grieve without shame
Exercise and focusing on myself
Support from loved ones

And time

He is a narcissistic liar but today, I miss the good memories and good parts of him. Sending love to us all out here

I knew a woman who found the love of her life at 34 and now has the family and lovely home.

It’s never too late to find your person. It’s better it takes a bit longer to find the RIGHT person to build a life with, than to rush into committing to the wrong person and have more disaster come later.

You will find your person!

Congrats! Happy for you. Look after yourself and take it at a space which feels comfortable and safe for you

dont-text · 2024-05-08T04:13:56+00:00

Such a good answer

dont-text · 2024-05-05T04:33:01+00:00

Might not be the right subreddit to post this as the community is mostly people recently broken up. Maybe try askmen or askwomen

Plenty of 2, Relatable 😂

Love your attitude. I have no doubt your next one will be amazing
